power or transmission sources.
– Ensure that there is a maximum (at least 1 foot per 100 VAC) distance between the
microphone and audio cables and the AC source.
If O.K., then:
– Verify the cable type and installation used for audio connections between the
microphone and the VG4 AutoDome.
– Cable type: Coaxial
– Cable length: 10 m (33 ft), maximum
