Supplies Required

- A10-RX
- A-15PIN
- Six M2.5 x 0.45 x 20 mm long panhead Phillips screws (provided)
Step 1
Update the A10-RX firmware to v3.00. The A-15PIN does not support firmware prior to v3.00. Power down the A10-RX and remove all power.
Step 2
Detach the A-SL or A-XLR from the A10-RX by removing the four 16MM screws from the corners. Store the screws in a safe place for later use.
Step 3
Slide the A10-RX into the A-15PIN slot so that the A10-RX and A-15PIN screw holes align. The A10-RX should be fully-seated against the A-15PIN top plate.
Step 4
Attach the A10-RX front panel to the A-15PIN using two of the provided screws and a Phillips head screwdriver.
Step 5
Attach the A10-RX rear panel to the A-15PIN using the remaining four provided screws and a Phillips head screwdriver.
Step 6
Insert the assembled A10-RX and A-15PIN into the rear mount slot of the Sony professional camcorder. The Sound Devices logo of the A-15PIN faces the rear of the camera. The A-15PIN pegs align with the Sony camcorder’s screw holes. Fully seat the A-15PIN against the camera.
Step 7
Attach the A-15PIN to the Sony camcorder using the four captive screws and a Phillips head screwdriver.
