Mic Installation

1.Please refer to Fig. 3 and identify the parts shown.

2.Determine where you want to install the microphone, and drill a 25/32-inch diameter hole there.

3.PZM-10 only: Obtain some 2-conductor shielded mic cable, long enough to run from your equipment input to the microphone. If space is tight behind the mounting surface, obtain a right-angle female XLR connector. Solder the female XLR connector onto the cable: shield to pin 1, hot lead to pin 2, other lead to pin 3.

PZM-10LL only: Obtain enough mic cable to run from your equipment input to the mi- crophone. You can use either a 2-conductor shielded mic cable with a separate DC power lead, or a 3-conductor shielded mic cable (with one of the leads used for power).

4.Run the female XLR (if used) and mic cable to the hole.

5.Using a 5/32-in. Allen wrench, remove the collar from the microphone. Insert the micro- phone tube into the hole.

6.Slide the collar onto the mic tube. Pull the plate tight against the hole and press the collar tight against the mounting surface. Tighten the Allen screw in the collar.

7.PZM-10 only: Plug your mic cable into the microphone.

PZM-10LL only: Solder the PZM-10LL cable leads to your mic cable as described below:

Red to 12-24V DC White to Audio + lead Black to Audio – lead

Shield to cable shield and power supply –.

8.PZM-10 only: Plug the other end of your mic cable into one of these devices:

*A mic preamp that supplies phantom power.

*A mixer that supplies phantom power.

*A phantom power supply, such as the Crown PH-1A.

Connect the output of the supply to the mic input of your mic preamp, mixer or recorder.
