Martin,
According to the SM-8 microphone schematic, the UP button connects the
UP/DN line directly to ground, but the DN button connects the UP/DN
button to ground through a 470 ohm resistor. You would have to convert
these closures to 2 lines each of which is a circuit direct to ground,
so you would have to provide some sort of level sensing at the input of
whatever adapter circuit you would come up with.
Much microphone information can be found on G4WPW's wonderful collection
of microphone connections/diagrams/etc. Look at
