QUICK START

If you were the type that cheated on school book reports by just
skimming through the reading assignments, then this section is
for you! It gives you not quite enough information to really know
what you're doing. But, if you follow the recommended set up
procedure, you should get at least a "B."
Keep the amplifiers and the CP 64S turned off until all connec-
tions are made.
INTERNAL SETTINGS
Access to the following internal controls requires removal of the
top cover. All internal settings should be complete before you in-
stall the CP 64S, before you attach the power cable. The factory
default settings work for many applications. However, you may
need to change one or more for your system. See the INTERNAL
ADJUSTMENTS description on page Manual-4 for more details.
• Each Page Input has a 15 volt Phantom Power switch. The
default is off.
• The Page Priority switch assigns priority override to Page 1,
Page 2 or NO (none). The default is Page 1. If a Page has
priority, it overrides the non-priority Page in the Zone(s) it is
assigned. The NO priority setting allows the Pagers to mix.
• Each Page Input may sum with the Program Pre- or Post-
VCA. When set to Pre-VCA, Zone Level, EQ and Limiter
circuits act upon the Page. When summed Post-VCA, the
Page is not influenced by Zone Level, EQ or Limiter circuits.
The default is Pre-VCA.
• The Zone 1 Stereo/Mono switch default is Stereo.
• There are two internal trim controls for the Program Priority
detector. The Program Priority Threshold trim has a range of
-∞ to -35 dBu with a default of -50 dBu. The Program Priority
Release Time has a range of 2 to 20 seconds. The default is 12
seconds.
PAGE INPUTS
Connect Page Inputs to the Euroblock on the rear panel and
select the appropriate MIC or LINE switch position for each.
First, set the gain with the Page TRIM control, then set the Page
DETECT THRESHOLD and finally the Page Zone LEVEL.
PR 2 REMOTE
If you use the optional PR 2 remote (sold separately), wire it to
the rear RMT ZONE ASSIGN Euroblock as indicated. If you
WEAR PARTS: This product contains no wear parts.

require remote control but do not wish to use a PR 2, any simple
switch closure to GND will work. These inputs are also TTL
compatible (0 to 5 VDC). See wiring details on page Manual-5.
PROGRAM INPUTS
Connect Program sources to the RCA PROGRAM INPUTS.
If you have a priority program, like a jukebox, connect it to the
PRIORITY Input. The Program PRIORITY ASSIGN switch
assigns priority override to Off, Zone 1, Zone 2, or Both. In the
Zone(s) that it is assigned, the priority program is automatically
selected when signal is detected.
EXPAND OUTPUTS
Wire the EXPAND OUTPUT Euroblock for each Zone as
required. These are cross-coupled line drivers and may be used
balanced or unbalanced. Each Expand Output can be Page-only,
Program-only or its Zone signal. The Zone source will not include
the Page if the Page is summed Post-VCA. Page is always avail-
able from the Page source.
ZONE OUTPUTS
Wire the two ZONE OUT Euroblocks as required. These are
cross-coupled line drivers and may be used balanced or unbal-
anced. Set the LIMIT threshold as required.
ZR 1 REMOTE
You may use one or two ZR 1 Remotes with each CP 64S. If
you use the optional ZR 1 remote (sold separately), wire it to the
rear REMOTES Euroblock as indicated. If a ZR 1 remote is not
used, any simple switch closure to ground will work for the D0
and D1 pins. These pins are TTL compatible (0 to 5 VDC). The
logic is inverse Gray Code. Any ground referenced 5 volt DC
control may be used as the input to V
Vr or Vr pins. See wiring details on page Manual-5.

SETUP ADVICE
The CP 64S is very versatile. While this makes a large number of
system applications possible, it also results in complexity. For this
reason, it is important to use an organized approach for setup and
calibration. A highly recommended setup procedure appears on
page Manual-7. By following it you will encounter fewer prob-
lems and reduce the need to increase our collective phone bills.
