Quick Setup Guide
1) Ensure the POWER switch is set to OFF before you begin.
2) Mount the DXA-CINE to an appropriate place on your rig via the
¼”/20 threaded inserts or the included shoe mount.
3) Connect external 11-18 volt power to the 2-pin Lemo connector.
4) For use on the RED DSCM2 camera, connect the supplied SC35
cable from the 3.5mm OUT jack on the adapter to the mic input
jack on the DSCM2 module of the camera.
For use with the ARRI ALEXA Mini, connect the Beachtek
BT-LEMO cable (not supplied) from the 5-pin balanced XLR LINE
OUT on the DXA-CINE to the balanced 5-pin Lemo mic input on
the camera.
5) Connect your microphones to the adapter inputs.
6) Set the GAIN switches to HI for 60dB gain or LO for 40dB gain.
7) Set the MONITOR switch to OUT.
8) Set the M/S switch to M for mono when using one channel or to S

9) Turn the adapter PWR switch on. The power LED should be green.
10) Set the camera audio to 0dB gain.
11) Adjust the LEFT and RIGHT level controls for each channel so the

12) Plug your headphones into the PHONE jack on the adapter and
adjust the VOLUME control to a comfortable level. Ensure that you
