31 INSTALLATIONACCESSORY CONNECTIONSFRONT PANELn Headphones (PHONES)Connect monaural or stereo headphones having a4 to 32Ω impedance. This jack accepts a6.3 mm (1/4") diameter, 2-conductor (mono) or3-conductor (stereo) plug. After connecting theheadphones, you will hear no sound from theinternal (or optional external) speaker.n Microphone (MIC)Connect a microphone having an impedancebetween 250 and 600Ω. Fully insert theconnector, then screw the retaining ring clockwiseuntil secure. Compatible microphones include theMC-43S, MC-47, MC-52DM, MC-60A, MC-80,MC-85, and MC-90. Do not use the MC-44,MC-44DM, MC-45, MC-45E, MC-45DM,MC-45DME, or MC-53DM microphones.REAR PANELn External Speakers (EXT.SP1/ EXT.SP2)This transceiver has 2 independent receivers.Thus, it can output 2 separate audio signals. As adefault, the transceiver mixes both audio signalsinternally and outputs them from the internalspeaker. On the rear panel of the transceiver,there are 2 external speaker jacks. If an externalspeaker is connected to EXP.SP1, the internalspeaker will mute. If the speaker is connected toEXT.SP2, both the external speaker and theinternal speaker will function. Use only externalspeakers with an impedance of 4 to 8Ω (8Ωnominal). These jacks accept only 3.5 mm (1/8")diameter, 2-conductor (mono) plugs.Do not connect headphones to this jack. The high audio outputof this jack could damage your hearing.n Keys for CW (PADDLE and KEY)For CW operation using the internal electronickeyer, connect a keyer paddle to the PADDLEjack. For CW operation without using the internalelectronic keyer, connect a straight key,semi-automatic key (bug), electronic keyer, or theCW keyed output from a MultimodeCommunications Processor (MCP) to the KEYjack. The PADDLE and KEY jacks mate with a6.3 mm (1/4") 3-conductor plug and a 3.5 mm(1/8") 2-conductor plug respectively. Externalelectronic keyers or MCPs must use positivekeying to be compatible with this transceiver. Usea shielded cable between the key and thetransceiver.Note: Due to the functionality of the internal electronic keyer, youmay find it unnecessary to connect both a paddle and anothertype of keyer unless you want to use a PC-based keyer for CW.Read the “ELECTRONIC KEYER” section {page 42} to becomefamiliar with the internal keyer.iq uytwerTS-2000TS-2000XTS-B2000+• Straight key • Paddle• Bug key• Electronic keyer• MCP CW outputGND GND dash dotMicrophoneHeadphoneTS-2000TS-2000XTS-B2000MIC connector (Front view)GND (STBY)GND (MIC)NC8 V (10 mA max)MICPTTDOWNUPExternal speaker
