Operating Instructions
Positioning the source
The source can be used in and around vehicles. Make sure the area around the proximity of the source is free of
metal dust/debris as the powerful magnets may attract this. Infiltration of debris may result in loss of performance.
There are several options to position the source at the desired location.
Use a M6 rod fixed at one of the two inner M6 threads.
Use the M6 eyebolt which serves as a hookup point for elastic ropes, bungees, zip-tie
Use the blue foam in the flightcase cover for acoustically transparent support
Use the thread adaptor to interface with photographic mounting material
The source can be supported with bungees for dynamic structural decoupling. It can also be put on foam that has
an open cell structure. The structure of the foam incorporated in the cover of the flightcase ensures low frequent
noise emission is not affected.
There are two thread inserts available on the outer faces of the device. The thread type is metric M6. These can be
used for fixing the source in any orientation.

of the threadholes
The thread adaptor can be used to mount the source onto a typical microphone stand thread (¼"-20 UNC to M6
adaptor). Fasten hand tight only. An optional tripod is optional, material code: AL0006, available through your local
Siemens PLM Software office.
