The audio signal is transformer–coupled for a balanced
output to the microphone connector. An active power supply
circuit regulates the phantom voltage, and the 1.5–volt bat-
tery provides instantaneous backup in case the phantom
power supply fails. The regularor/reverse voltage protector
provides built–in protection against miswired cables and
equipment.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Due to the circuit complexity of the SM94, only basic ser-
vicing is recommended. The following steps should be taken
if problems arise:
1. Check the power supply output voltage. For the Shure
PS1A, this should be 21.5, 1.5 Vdc, open circuit.
2. Check the voltage on connector pins 2 and 3 (at back of
connector, with cable connector removed from shell, but
connected to microphone). The voltage at pins 2 and 3
with reference to pin 1 should be between 10 and 48 Vdc.
3. If the microphone does not work on phantom power, bat-
tery operation may still be possible. Similarly, if battery
operation is impaired, the SM94 may still operate on
phantom power. In either case, you should send the mi-
crophone to an Authorized Shure Service Center at your
earliest opportunity.
