Example 3: TWO AM8 MIXERS 
In this example, the TH3 is connected to a 
pair of AM8 mixers.  Both local and remote 
signals are amplified.  The single LecNet 
cable passes signals both to and from the 
AM8. 
Note the interconnection of the mixers, with 
the last mixer in the chain set as the master. 
This technique may be used to add mixers to 
any of the other examples. 
Example 4: AM16 MIXER 
In this example, the TH3 is connected to an 
AM16 mixer. Due to the flexibility of the 
AM16, the same wiring configuration may be 
used whether or not local sound reinforce-
ment is required. The single LecNet cable 
passes signals both to and from the AM16. 
In the AM16 software setup, Misc Settings 
tab, be sure the Expansion In port is linked 
to the NOM bus associated with the micro-
phones (usually NOM 1).  This ensures that 
the LecNet anti-echo feature will work 
correctly.
