Compatible Wiring for Both Servo Bias Inputs and Earlier Transmitters:
Simple Wiring for Servo Bias Inputs ONLY:
Input Jack Wiring for Different Sources
In addition to the microphone and line level wiring illus-
trated below, Lectrosonics makes a number of cables
and adapters for other situations such as connecting
musical instruments (guitars, bass guitars, etc.) to the
transmitter. Visit
