APPLICATIONS
Zone Paging with Background Music
Programming of the PMX84 for this application can be done simply by opening & downloading a file (page1a.pmx) during Configuration
.
This application shows (1) master & (4) zone paging microphones connected to an Advantage EX module. The EX module provides the
mic preamplification necessary before entering the PMX84 (line-level signals do not require preamplification). Unbalanced line-level
signals from the EX Patch jacks (Channels 1~5) are then connected to Inputs 1~5 of the PMX84, respectively. A background music source
is connected to Input 6 of the PMX84. Outputs A~D of the PMX84 are connected to inputs of Advantage D60EQs for Zones 1~4,
respectively. The D60EQs provide amplification, equalization, & transformer output necessary for the distributed speakers in each zone.
Routing switches at each of the paging stations are wired to the appropriate Logic Inputs on the PMX84 (see diagram at bottom of page).
The Logic Inputs are programmed to perform the input/output assignments associated with their corresponding routing switches. The
Logic Inputs are also programmed in ‘four groups of four priority’. This allows each of the (4) zones to have its own (4) levels of priority.
The first level of priority in each zone is ‘all-call’ paging from the master paging station. The second level of priority in each zone is ‘zone’
paging from the master paging station. The third level of priority in each zone is ‘local’ paging from the respective zone paging station.
The fourth level of priority in each zone is ‘background music’, which can be turned on or off at the respective zone paging station.
