General
The ZFR100 has an unbalanced microphone input accessed through a 3-pin micro-LEMO connector. You can use
an unbalanced dynamic microphone or a powered lavaliere. It is recommended that you use 3-wire lavalieres with
separate pins for ground, audio and power.
When using a Line-level input, an inline pad is required on the standard dynamic microphone input cable (XLR-3 to
3-pin micro-LEMO).
When using a phantom powered microphone with the ZFR100, you must use an external 48 VDC power supply.
NOTE:
Once upon a time, the Denecke 48V power supply could damage the now discontinued Goldline
transmitter‟s preamp. This is NOT the case with the ZFR100.
