Disconnecting
the cable:
Important!
The C 520 /C 520 L is a condenser microphone
and therefore needs a power supply.
Using any power supply other than those rec-
ommended by AKG may damage your micro-
phone and will void the warranty.
1. Connect the phantom power adapter on the
microphone cable to a balanced XLR micro-
phone input with phantom power.
2. Switch the phantom power on. (Refer to the
instruction manual of the unit to which you
connected your C 420.)
1. Plug the mini XLR connector on the micro-
phone cable all the way into one of the two mini
XLR sockets on the B 29, the mini XLR socket
on the connecting cable of the MPA II, or the
input socket on the bodypack transmitter.
The connector will lock automatically.
• To disconnect the cable, press the unlocking
button on the mini XLR connector and pull the
connector out of the socket.
