Wiring headphone to Manticore

Post by TINTIN2500 »

Hello

I bought a Manticore connector because my Aqua-tek Manticore Headphone (from US) was not properly done, and there is a contact failure when it's plugged in.. (work, not work, work....)

So I'm looking for the schematic to weld it back together and know what goes with what.

Thanks all. [08/]

I would use your flaky Aquatek headphones to help you work out which pins are connected to what with a multimeter/continuity tester. [81/]

Minelab, as all other manufacturers, including Aqua-tec, do not make their schematics publicly available, for obvious reasons. Looks like a session of trial and error .... good luck! Or just return the non-working component for a refund.

Hello Simonx [88/]

Thanks for you prosition. I accept it with pleasure. :;@
I've got few testers, but I don't really know how to use them, apart from the very-basic stuff.

I would return it, but the guy who is doing it : Frank Lapergolo from detectAmerica is not responding ... :-/ Bizarre

Manticore, Nox, 3030 are all wired the same. [81/]

I can solder anything, but my electric knowledge is poor. [88/]
