CONNECTIONS
These low-impedance microphones are designed for connection to
microphone inputs rated at 75 to 300 ohms. Using balanced-line
low-impedance cables permits very long cable lengths without af-
fecting response or level. The RED and BLACK cable leads are the
microphone conductors for balanced-line connections; the shield is
connected to the amplifier ground.
For unbalanced operation, connect the BLACK lead to the shield,
and use the RED lead as the microphone conductor.
The GREEN and WHITE cable leads are used to control an exter-
nal relay or control circuit. Refer to the following table and to the
wiring diagram in Figure 4.

MOUNTING THE 515SBG-18X AND 515SBG-18XF
Mount the 515SBG-18X or 515SBG-18XF as follows:
1. Thread the supplied hexnut all the way down on the mounting
flange.
2. Thread the gooseneck tightly on the flange.
3. Back the hexnut up against the gooseneck, and use a wrench
to tighten the nut firmly against the bottom of the gooseneck.
MOUNTING THE 515SBX ONTO A GOOSENECK
Mount the 515SBGX onto a gooseneck or fixed pipe with a 5/8 in-
27 thread as follows:
1. Unscrew the black end cap from the microphone.
2. Remove the thin metal washer and the metal spacer.
3. Re-install the washer by sliding it back onto the cable and up
into the end of the microphone.
4. Slip the cable into the gooseneck or pipe and thread the
microphone firmly to the mount.
