Loudspeaker output connections: Main speaker output connections for both low impedance and constant voltage distributed are on the 4-pin terminal block connector. The zone (1-4) 70V constant voltage outputs are on an 8-pin terminal block connector. More information about loudspeaker output connections is described in a further chapter of this instruction manual.

Unbalanced line inputs 2 & 3 (RCA jack): Line 2 and 3 stereo RCA inputs. Chime & Fire inputs (Terminal block): Chime & Fire inputs can be connected to any external source, such as call station, signal matrix, fire alarm system. The chime and fire outputs have priority over all other inputs.
SD/MMC Front panel description Master volume control: Master volume control overall volume for all output channels. Input volume controls: Using the input level controls, the individual level for each connected input can be adjusted to the preferred level. Chime: When the chime button is pressed the chime tone as pre-announcement for paging will be played once.

Zone 1-4 on/off button: The different speaker zone outputs (1-4) can be switched on and off by pressing the on/off button of the corresponding zone. When the zone (1-4) is enabled the on/off button will illuminate green to indicate the zone is on. When the ‘All’ button is pressed all zones will turn on or off.
Setting up the system ATTENTION! Make sure the power of the device is turned OFF before any wiring connections or adjustments are made. 1) Connecting the Speakers The speakers connect to the 2 terminal blocks on the back panel of the device. This device is compatible with low impedance and constant voltage speakers depending on the projects requirements.
