REMOTE CONTROLS
The type and quantity of remote controls is optional for the SPM522D. Remote control affects source selections, preset selection, mic/line
input levels, and main/zone output levels. Remote controls may be added at any time, and do not require the SPM522D to be modified,
opened, or removed from a rack. There are five types of remote controls available: The Infrared Transmitter, the Infrared Receiver, the
Wall-Mount Panel, the Remote Interface Kit, and the Remote Display Panel. The SPM522D may also be controlled via computer and
certain third-party controllers.
NOTE:
Remote controls come with complete instructions.
Infrared Receiver
(Biamp #909-0030-00)
:
The Receiver consists of a black plastic box, containing an infrared
photo detector, an LED indicator, and five screw terminals. To install Receiver, first take off front cover by
removing four screws. Mount Receiver to wall or other surface, using two screw holes on back cover (screws
not included). Receiver should not be mounted in direct sunlight, or pointed directly at fluorescent lighting. For
best results, there should be an unobstructed line-of-sight from Transmitter to Receiver. The Receiver may be
wired up to 2000 feet from the SPM522D, using 2-conductor shielded cable (not included). Route cable through
access hole on bottom of Receiver. Three screw terminals inside the Receiver ("GND", "IR2", & "IR3")
correspond to "Remote" terminals on rear of SPM522D. Connect cable shield to "GND" terminals at each end.
Use conductors to connect "IR2" to "IR2" & "IR3" to "IR3". Replace Receiver front cover. The LED indicator
inside Receiver lights when infrared information is detected.
NOTE:
The Infrared Receiver also includes two
'Remote Translator' terminals ("GND" & "XLATE"), which allow remote control of the SPM522D via third-party
'serial' controllers. Complete instructions are included with the Infrared Receiver.
InfraRed Transmitter
(Biamp #909-0064-00)
:
The Transmitter is a hand-held controller, which transmits
infrared codes unique to Biamp. Therefore, the Transmitter should not affect any other infrared controlled
equipment (such as TVs or VCRs). Likewise, other infrared controllers will not provide proper control of Biamp
equipment. The Transmitter requires two AAA batteries, which are included with the unit (user installed). The
Transmitter has twenty-eight buttons. Main (1~5) buttons select which stereo input channel (plus tone & balance
settings) is routed to the Main output. Main (A~D) buttons select the desired preset for the Main output. Zone
(1~5) buttons select which stereo input channel (plus tone & balance settings) is routed to the Zone output.
Zone (E~H) buttons select the desired preset for the Zone output. From the factory, button D/5 (Main) and H/5
(Zone) select stereo input channel #5 to be routed to the respective outputs. However, during Configuration
each of these buttons may be re-defined to instead recall the respective D & H presets (see Configuration on pg.
9). During Setup Mode the Main (A~D) and Zone (E~H) buttons are used to store the respective presets (see
Setup on pg. 6). The MUTE buttons (Mic 1, Mic 2, Zone, & Main) turn off the respective mic/line input or stereo
output signals. The Vol

buttons (Mic 1, Mic 2, Zone, & Main) adjust the level setting of the respective
mic/line input or stereo output signals. Decreasing the level setting of a muted input/output only reduces the
level that input/output will return to when it is un-muted. However, increasing the level setting of a muted
input/output automatically un-mutes that input/output. When a mic/line input is set for 'gated' operation, level
settings can be adjusted only when the input is active (gate open). The way in which an SPM522D responds to
remote control buttons may be completely re-defined during Configuration (see Configuration on pg. 9) For best
results, there should be an unobstructed line-of-sight from Transmitter to receiver. The Transmitter will operate
up to 30 feet from a receiver. In addition to the Infrared Receiver described above, receivers are also included
on the SPM522D, the Wall-Mount, and the Remote Display Panel.
