GENERAL

The UNISPHERE I 565 Series microphones are dual-imped- ance, unidirectional dynamic microphones with a strong, wire-mesh, spherical front grille that contains a highly effective wind and “pop“ filter.

Shipped connected for low-impedance operation, 565 Series microphones provide excellent vocal or speech reproduction on lecterns and stages, and are a popular choice for use in public au- ditoriums, churches, convention halls, and schools.

FEATURES

•Selectable dual impedance operation

•Silent magnetic reed on/off switch with lock-on option

•Cardioid dynamic

•Frequency response: 50 to 15,000 Hz

MODEL VARIATIONS

Model 565SD-CN:Supplied with 6.1 m (20 ft) XLR cable.

Model 565SD-LC:No cable supplied.

CONNECTIONS

When using the microphone with a balanced input, pins 2 and 3 are the audio signal carriers. When using the microphone with an unbalanced input, use a cable wired with pin 2 as the signal carrier and pin 3 connected to the cable shield (ground), such as the Shure C20HZ high-impedance cable.

IMPEDANCE SELECTION

The microphone is shipped connected for low impedance oper- ation. To change to high impedance, proceed as follows (refer to Figure 1):

1.Remove plug element at receptacle end of microphone by turning slotted setscrew in (counterclockwise) and carefully withdrawing plug element from case.

2.Disconnect 2-terminal impedance selection socket from rear of plug element.

3.Reconnect 2-terminal impedance selection socket in reverse position so that pin 3 of plug element is inserted in socket ter- minal “H” (White).

POLARITY

All cables and microphones should be tested to ensure that they have the same polarity. To test two microphones and/or their ca- bles for proper polarity, connect them to an amplifier and talk or sing into them while holding them three or four inches apart. The sound from the speakers should be the same when talking into ei- ther microphone or directly between them. If the sound drops dras- tically, or if a dead spot is found when talking between the two microphones, either the microphones or their cables have opposite polarity.

To change the polarity of a microphone cable, either use a Shure A15PRS phase reverser or interchange the wires connected to pins 2 and 3 of the three-pin connector at one end of the cable. To change the polarity of a microphone, the microphone cartridge leads must be interchanged. This should be performed by your dealer, the Shure Factory Service Department, or other qualified service personnel.
