Thank you for purchasing this product. Before using the product, read through the user
manual to ensure that you will use the product correctly.
Please keep this manual for future reference.
The BP892x requires 11V to 52V phantom power for operation, and includes a 1.4 m
permanently attached miniature cable. Its free end connects to the provided AT8545 power
module via a locking 4-pin connector. The connector is also compatible with Audio-Techni-
ca cW and cH type body-pack transmitters. The output of the power module is a 3-pin
XLRM-type connector.
Avoid leaving the microphone in the open sun or in areas where temperatures exceed 43°C
for extended periods. Extremely high humidity should also be avoided.
Connect the output terminals of AT8545 power module to a device that has a microphone
input (balanced input) compatible with a phantom power supply. The output connector is
an XLRM-type with polarity as
shown in the figure below.
For product improvement, the product is sublect to modification without notice.
