If the phantom power on your mixing console is switchable, switch the phantom power on. (Refer to the instruction manual for your mixing console.) The microphone is powered directly from the phantom power source on the console. 1. Prior to installing the microphone, straighten the 4.3 CHM 99 Flown cable by carefully pulling it through your fingers. Make Microphone sure not to buckle or twist the cable. Let hang for 1 day to untwist. 2. Fasten a hook to the ceiling, use an existing hook, or stretch a fishing line across the hall. 3. Pass the cable through the hook or over the line so that it will hang at the desired height. Do not tie a knot into the cable to hang it on the Important! hook. This may cause the cable to twist and misalign the microphone after a while. Fig. 1: Aligning the microphone. 5. Hold the cable with one hand and turn the micro-Refer to fig. 1. phone carefully into the desired position. • The cable on the CHM 99 will twist as the ambient Note: temperature changes, e.g., in the heat generated by spotlights. • The angle of twist depends both on the ambient temperature and the cable length. The shorter the cable, the smaller the amount of twist. 4 Installation and Connection • If you use spotlights, be sure to turn them on before aligning the microphone. (Text) • When you turn the spotlights off, the microphone will rotate out of alignment. Upon turning the spotlights back on, the microphone should rotate back into its original position. 4.3.1 Stabilizing To stabilize the microphone, the Microphone 1. Leave an appropriate length of fishing line through the eyelet on the spring clamp of the CHM 99. 2.

If the phantom power on your mixing console is switchable, switch the phantom power on. (Refer to the instruction manual for your mixing console.) The microphone is powered directly from the phan- Connection tom power source. If your mixer has no phantom power, insert an external phantom power supply between the DPA phantom power adapter and mixer input. We recommend the optional B 18 power supplies from AKG. Using any power supplies not recommended by AKG may damage your microphone and voids the warranty. You may also consider having a qualified technician retrofit a phantom power supply as per IEC 61938 to balanced or unbalanced mixer inputs. The IEC 61938 standard specifies a positive voltage of 12, 24, or 48 V on the audio lines versus the cable shield. If your equipment inputs are grounded or transformer- less, wire either capacitor...
