Headset wiring


 

I was trying to wire my mono headset to work with tx500.

According to the sources I found on Internet that proper way of wiring mono speaker to TRS connector is to do it as follow:

S <-> Speaker -
RT <-> Speaker +

Such configuration works with PC plug and the speaker mike connector from my tx500, although it fails when using the provided headset adapter.

Wiring manual expects following wiring:

S <-> NC
R <-> Speaker +
T <-> Speaker -

This works with adapter, but not with the PC or speakermike.

Is it so, the adapter wiring is borked by design, or I'm doing something somewhere wrong?


 

My recollection is that some OEM adapters require a stereo to mono adapter plug to use some headset plugs because of incorrect wiring or grounding?

Please see my post for a headset adapter. It works great.?
