IMPEDANCE
The Astatic Model 877HL is a duel impedance microphone. The high impedance
position is 40,000 ohms and the low impedance is 400 ohms.
The low impedance position is recommended for long cable length requirements.
Cable lenghts of 30.5m (100 ft.) or more can be used in this position without loss
of level or deterioration of high frequency response.
CABLE END CONNECTIONS
HI IMPEDANCE: Connect the red lead to the audio input, the black lead and
shield to ground, and the white and green to relay control
LOW IMPEDANCE: Connect cable leads red and black to balanced line input,
shield to ground, white and green to relay control.
PHASING
Positive pressure (movement of diaphragm inward) will generate a positive voltage
on the red cable lead with respect to the black lead.
