Installation And Connection - AKG D 542 Bedienungshinweise

The D 542/D 542 E is a dynamic microphone with
a 9-inch (22-cm) gooseneck for the following ap-
plication areas: fair grounds and amusement
parks, cafeterias, quick-lunch restaurants, ticket
windows, paging systems, convention centers,
places of worship, recording or sound reinforce-
ment mixing consoles, busses, trains, etc.
The microphone's cardioid polar pattern ensures
good rejection of unwanted ambient noise and
provides high gain before feedback. The fre-
quency response has been designed specifically
for speech reproduction. The all-metal housing is
finished in matte gray enamel and will cause no
light reflections.
The D 542 is fitted with a 10-ft. (3-m) fixed cable
with stripped-and-tinned leads. You can perma-
nently install the microphone in a desktop or use
an optional SA 50 stand adapter to mount it tem-
porarily on any microphone stand with a 3/8" or
5/8" thread.
The D 542 E features a 3-pin XLR connector for di-
rect connection to an XLR socket, such as the tail-
back input on a mixing console.
You can install the D 542 in any sheet of wood,
metal, or plastic with a maximum thickness of
0.7 in. (19 mm).
1. Unscrew the fixing screw (2) from the goose-
neck (1) and remove the fixing screw (2) from
the cable (3).
2. Drill a 1/2" (12-mm) hole in the desktop.
