Description
The CPSM shock-mount kit is a permanent
mounting accessory providing shock isola-
tion for the CP212 and CP218 podium mi-
crophones. The amount of isolation is sub-
stantial, in excess of 15 dB at 200 Hz (see
Figure 1). The CPSM is also theft resistant
after installation, with the microphone locked
to the shock mount’s sleeve insert. Mount-
ing a CP212 or CP218 to a podium, lectern
or desk top is quick and easy using the CPSM
shock-mount kit.
The CPSM kit consists of a shock mount,
template, set screw, hex-key wrench and
three screws. It is designed for installation
into panels up to 1
1
/
2
 inches thick.
Installation
1.
Select the microphone location by first
checking for obstructions under the panel that
will interfere with the microphone, and for a
flat surface on which to properly seat the top
flange. Panel thickness may not exceed 1
1
/
2
inches (38.1 mm).
2.
Clean the surface of the panel on which
the shock mount is to be installed.
3.
Crack and peel off the protective back-
ing of the template and carefully place the
template on the panel surface at the chosen
location for the shock mount.
4.
Drill a 1
3
/
8
-inch diameter hole (approxi-
mately 39.4 mm) through the center of the
template.
5.
Drill three holes for the #6 wood screws.
The hole size for these screws will depend
on the panel material.
6.
Set the roll-off switch on the microphone
for the desired response.
7.
Insert the microphone into the shock
mount. Turn the microphone so that the plas-
tic roll-off switch holder and the switch do
not come in contact with the set screw. In-
sert the microphone to the top of the
microphone’s electronics housing, as shown
in the photograph. (The top of the electron-
ics housing is the junction just above the
three holding set screws.)
8.
Mount the kit’s set screw on the pro-
vided hex-key wrench. Insert the set screw
into the tapped hole in the steel sleeve and
tighten, securing the microphone in the shock
mount.
9.
Connect the female 3-pin connector to
the microphone. If depth is restricted, a right-
angle audio connector may be required. Place
the shock mount into the drilled hole. Align
the shock mount with the three drilled holes.
Secure the assembly to the panel by screw-
ing in the three remaining wood screws.
