+Phase: An excursion of the diaphragm towards the back electrode (posi- tive pressure phase) leads to a positive signal at this pin. *matched pair; see page 5 ** Here are three simple methods for verifying correct phantom powering.
These measurements should be made at an unused input. Reduce the channel gain to protect loudspeakers, etc. If microphones are connected to other inputs at the same time, no substantial difference should occur in the results. 1. Measure the open-circuit voltage between ground (pin 1) and either pin 2(4) or pin 3(5) of the XLR input. Given the permitted tolerances, this voltage should be between 44 and 52 VDC for P48, and between 11 and 13 VDC for P12. Then, measure the short-circuit current between ground (pin 1) and either pin 2(4) or pin 3(5) of the XLR input. Given the permitted tolerances, this current should be between 5.9 and
8.5 mA DC for P48, and between 15 and 21 mA DC for P12. Note: Well-designed phantom power supplies must tolerate at least a temporary short circuit without damage; an unbalanced connection (w

To be safe, however, don't leave the short circuit in place
longer than necessary. 2) Measure the DC voltages on the modulation leads with a micro- phone connected, e.g. by opening the connector shell of the cable. The tw

voltages (from pin 2(4) and pin 3(5) to pin 1) must be identical.

and a 48-Volt supply, they should be about 34 Volts
(minimum = 30 Volts). For P12 this is 9 Volts (minimum 8 Volts). 3) For P48, use a

PHS 48 tester. Plug it in to the XLR input sock-
et; if the LED glows and stays lit, all is well.
