phone element, there is no need to set gain on the handheld transmitter. Therefore, the handheld
transmitter has no level or gain control.

4. Talk or sing into the microphone and set the levels on your mixer or amplifier referring to the appro-
priate instruction manual, or by ear.
1. Pull the color code clip (13) off the transmitter case in the direction of the arrow.
2. Slide the supplied semitransparent replacement clip onto the transmitter to the point that it snaps into
place with an audible click.
The PT 40 PRO bodypack transmitter has been designed for use with the CK 55 L, C 417 L, C 420 L, and
C 444 L microphones from AKG. If you wish to connect other microphones from AKG or other manufac-
turers to the PT 40 PRO, please note that you may have to rewire the existing connector of your micro-
phone or replace it with a 3-pin mini XLR connector.
Audio input (18) pinout:
Pin 1: shield
Pin 2: audio inphase (+)
Pin 3: supply voltage
A 4-V positive supply voltage for condenser microphones is available on pin 3.

If you find any dead spots, try to eliminate them by repositioning the receiver. If this does not help,
avoid the dead spots.

squelch is active.
