Manual de Usuario

Model 598T User Guide
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The 598T is a handheld, amplified, noise-canceling communications microphone that is FAA Certified for aircraft application (TSOC58a). In addition to its extremely clear transmission, even in noisy environments, the 598T has very low sensitivity to hum pickup and low susceptibility to radio frequency interference. The 598T is ergonomically designed and fits naturally in the hand. Its high-impact ARMO-DUR® case is strong, lightweight, and comfortable to the touch in hot or cold environments. A five-conductor MODULINK® cable (sold separately) connects the microphone to the PJ-068 plug on most aircraft radios. This cable can be instantly changed or replaced without soldering. A miniature screwdriver is supplied for unlocking and removing the cable. The microphone is powered directly from the microphone input of the transmitter, allowing the 598T to be installed and operated with most modern aircraft radios without equipment modification. Output levels are factory preset to meet TSO-C58a requirements. Only an FAA Approved Service Facility or Shure Incorporated should make adjustments.

APPLICATIONS
Voice communication, including aerospace.
