MODEL 522

BASE-STATION MICROPHONE

The Model 522 is a dynamic base-station microphone for radio

communications, paging, and dispatching systems. Its cardioid

(unidirectional) pickup pattern suppresses unwanted background noise

from nearby dispatchers, ventilating equipment, or office machines. It also

can reduce feedback in public address paging applications. The 522 can

be converted to Monitor/Transmit switching with the Shure RK199S Split-

Bar Conversion Kit.

Features

Dual impedance (19 to 300 ohms or High)

lmpedance change switch for convenient change-over

Finger-tip control bar (locking or non-locking action) to actuate

microphone circuit and an external relay or control circuit
Long-life switch to satisfy rigorous requirements of

communications and paging systems
Sturdy, high impact ARMO-DUR

®

‚ base and microphone case

Adjustable microphone height

Dependable under most operating conditions

Conversion kit available for Monitor/Transmit switching

PRESS-TO-TALK SWITCH OPERATION

Press and hold the bar switch to talk. To lock the switch, press and pull it

forward. To unlock the switch, move the bar back and release.

IMPEDANCE SELECTION

Use the switch located under the microphone base, near the cable entry,

to select high ("HI") or low ("LO") impedance.
Use the low-impedance position for long cable lengths under conditions

of severe hum disturbance. Use Shure Model A95 Series Line Matching

Transformers when using a low-impedance microphone line with a high-

impedance amplifier input.

OPTIONAL CONVERSION

Use the optional monitor split-bar with receivers that have a squelch

circuit. Depressing the monitor bar disables the squelch so the operator

can verify there are no other transmissions below the squelch threshold

before transmitting.
The Transmit/Monitor Switch Kit is Shure Model RK199S. General

microphone wiring instructions are supplied with the kit, but specific

transceiver wiring details must be obtained from the transceiver schematic

and/or the manufacturer of the unit.

LOGIC CONNECTIONS

The RED and BLACK leads may be used to control an external relay or

switching circuit.

AUDIO CONNECTIONS

Unbalanced high-impedance operation:

Set the impedance switch to the “HI” position (as shipped). Connect the

GREEN cable lead and the shield to the amplifier or chassis ground. The

WHITE cable lead is the “hot” conductor.

Balanced-line low-impedance operation:

Set the impedance switch to the “LO” position. Connect the shield to the

amplifier or chassis ground. The WHITE and GREEN cable leads are the

“hot” conductors.
