K3 Remoterig K3/0 MIC connection

[LA7NO]

Hello,

I have a problem connecting a Heil headset to the K3/0-mini.
Guess it is a configuration problem, since it works OK if conneced directly to the K3 in local mode.

I have tested it with the K3 MIC set to "rP.H bIAS" and K3/0 to "FP.H bIAS" (configured when K3/0 was disconnected from Remoterig).

Can't find anything about this in the K3-Remote manual.
Could someone point me to the correct setup of both the K3 and the K3/0-mini?
Any help is most welcome.

I just found that there is a comment on the K3 mic setting on the top of p.16 in the K3 Remote manual.
I have now changed my setting for K3 to "rPL". Not sure if it should have been "rPH".

Does the setting of the K3/0 have any influence when in remote  mode?
I find it a bit confusing that there apparently are two menu settings for the K3/0:
one while disconnected from Remoterig and another while connected through to K3.

When the K3/0 is connected to the K3, the rP or Fp menu sets the condition
of the K3, not the K3/0.
When the K3/0 is not connected, the setting changes the K3/0.
But I have had much better luck with connecting directly to the mic input om
the RRC control, so try that if you can.

Thanks, John. This fits with what I have assumed.

I would like to try connecting the mic directly to the RRC-control, but I do not have the reqired adapter.

We'll see...

If f.ex. both K3 and K3/0 has the tx equalizer set, will their effect be added?

Can it be the Remoterig settings are incorrect?

Just tried with an old dynamic Kenwood mic.
Setting K3 mic to "rP.L" gave same result: no output.

Receive and eveything else works fine.

What about the mic connector on the side of the K3/0-mini?
Is this in parallel to the main connector? Or how is it selected?

Is there a schematic or detailed block diagram available somewhere?
