3.3 Installation and connectivity
The unit should be installed securely using appropriate
fi xings.
ote:
N
The goose-neck microphone is not designed to be de-mounted
from the unit.
Warning:
Potential for sharp edges and corners during
installation.
3.3.1 Data and Audio connections
Data and audio connections to the unit should be wired
with 2 twisted pair and screen cable, with both individual
and overall screen for improved noise performance.
The unit uses 1 pair for outgoing audio with incoming
phantom power superimposed on the top. The second
pair is used for bi-directional RS485 at 38,400 8-N-1
baud serial for control and status reporting. The screen
connection is required as part of the 0V return. The
maximum cable distance that the system can support
for an Hmi-26 is 750 m, connections longer than this
are not supported and are likely to result in un-reliable
operation.
Connections to a Sonix Hmi-Tu should be wired pin-to-
pin without any crossover.
