Interfacing; General; Battery Powering; Inserting/Replacing And Testing The Battery - AKG C1000 S Modo De Empleo

The C 1000 S is a condenser microphone and therefore needs a power supply. An
internal 9 V battery enables you to use the microphone with no loss in audio quality
even if no phantom power supply is available. When operating off phantom power,
however, the microphone will automatically switch to phantom powering mode.
The microphone provides a balanced output on a 3-pin male XLR connector:
Pin 1: ground
Pin 2: hot
Pin 3: return
You can connect the microphone either to a balanced microphone input with or
without phantom power or an unbalanced microphone input.
1. Unscrew the wire-mesh cap (1).
2. Tilt the securing clip (2) up.
3. Insert the battery to conform with the polarity marks (+/-) and terminal slots in
the battery compartment.
It is impossible to insert the battery with reversed polarity.
4. Depress the securing clip (2).
5. Push the battery compartment back in.
6. Screw the wire-mesh cap (1) back on the microphone.
7. Set the on/off switch (3) to "ON" to switch power to the microphone on.
The BATT CHECK LED (4) will flash momentarily. If the battery is in good condi-
tion, the BATT CHECK LED (4) will extinguish.
If the BATT CHECK LED (4) fails to flash momentarily the battery is dead. Insert
a new battery.
If the BATT CHECK LED (4) illuminates the battery will be dead within about 60
minutes. Replace the battery with a new one as soon as possible.
