  • Page 5: Safety Notes

    General Description The Cloud 46/50 is a versatile, Four Zone 50W x 4 Integrated Mixer Amplifier. It has applications where up to two microphones and six line level music signals are required to feed four separate areas in any combination.
  • Page 6: Schematic Diagram

    PHANTOM POWER The Cloud 46/50 occupies two units of a standard 19" equipment rack. Sufficient ventilation should be provided particularly where it is required to deliver a high output power for long periods of time; the unit draws cool air through the front panel and exhausts through the rear panel. The 46/50 is 320mm deep but a depth of 400mm should be allowed to clear connectors.

    46/50 Integrated Mixer Amplifier Setup And Installation Guide CLOUD ELECTRONICS LIMITED Microphone Level Controls Each zone has separate front panel mounted level controls for Mic 1 and Mic 2. The level controls allow the user to adjust the microphone signals to a suitable level in any zone; rotating any Mic level control fully anti-clockwise effectively turns the microphone off.
  • Page 13: Output Details

    46/50 Integrated Mixer Amplifier Setup And Installation Guide CLOUD ELECTRONICS LIMITED Output Details Speaker Outputs Each speaker output uses a 2-pole plug-in screw terminal (Phoenix type) located on the rear panel; these connectors can accommodate flexible leads up to 2.5mm². It is good practice to distance output wiring from input wiring at all times and use twisted pair cable for the speaker wiring, ensuring that it remains twisted right up until termination.

    Active Remote Modules The Cloud DM-1 & LM-1 are the same physical size as a double UK electrical socket (BS4662 & BS1363 type) and can be mounted in the recessed back box provided or be surfaced mounted in a standard 35mm deep housing.
  • Page 16: Dm-1 Dual Microphone Input Module

    11.2 DM-1 Dual Microphone Input Module The Cloud DM-1 is a remotely located active module with two balanced microphone inputs via 3 pin female XLR connectors. Each input has a level control and tamperproof treble and bass equalisation controls. A 'music ducking' switch provides facility input priority over the main system music if required.

    LM-1 Mic/line plus remote control of music signals. The Cloud LM-1 is a remotely located active module with a balanced microphone input, a line level music input and music source select & level controls (rather like a built in RSL-6). A microphone priority switch provides the option to reduce the level of the music signal when the mic is used.

    46/50 Integrated Mixer Amplifier Setup And Installation Guide CLOUD ELECTRONICS LIMITED DC Control of Music Functions The 46/50 can be used as part of an automated sound system by controlling the music level and music source with a pair of external 0-10V DC voltages. The 3-pole connectors that are normally used to terminate RSL-6 or RL-1 remote control plates can be used to feed two separate control voltages into the 46/50 on a zone-by-zone basis.
