1. Source Select
The source select button (1) is used to select
the source for the zone. Each zone has a
separate source selection button. There are 9
selectable sources: Line sources 1 through 8
and a local Microphone source.
A different local source (remote in wall mixer
or source select/volume control) can be
connected to each zone. A zone cannot
select the local source connected to another
zone.
Pressing the source select button will cycle
through all zones in sequence: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,
7, 8, L, and OF.
To select a required source, press the source
select button (1). Once the display shows the
desired source, press the ENTER (14) button
to confirm and the change to the selected
source.
Note: The source will only change after
the ENTER (14) button is pressed. If the
ENTER (14) button is not pressed, the source
selection will return to previous setting after
10 seconds.
When the system is used in conjunction with
remote control panels, the zone source select
button will be disabled when a remote control
panel is connected to a zone. In this instance,
the source selection can only be controlled
via the remote control panel (QT VCS or QT
1WML)
In the event power is lost, the last source
selection settings are automatically saved and
the unit will return to its previously configured
source selections when powered back on.
2. Zone LED Display
The Single Digit Zone LED Display will display
the selected source number: lines 1-8 and
local input shown as L.
3. Page Busy
The Zone Page Busy indicator LED (3)
will illuminate amber to indicate a paging
microphone is paging to this zone.
4. MIC1 Priority Indicator
The MIC1 Priority Indicator LED (4) will
illuminate blue indicating the Zone MIC1
priority paging function is enabled.
5. MIC1 Priority Button
The MIC1 Priority button (5) will enable/
disable the MIC1 priority paging function.
When enabled, MIC1 will override zones 1-8
and all local inputs, if a signal is present on
the MIC1 input. When disabled, MIC1 will
mix with lines 1-8 and local inputs if required.
This Microphone input has been designed
to give global priority over all other inputs if
enabled via the front panel.
The MIC1 priority setting is not saved when
the Q Matrix 88 is switched off, and will return
to its default state on powered back on. The
default state of the MIC1 Priority is disabled.
6. Music Volume
The Music Volume control knob (6) controls
the selected source (zones 1-8 and local
input) input level. If the system is used with
Remote Control Panels, the Music Volume
knob will be disabled for zones where a
remote control panel is connected. Source
Music Volume level will be controlled at the
remote control panel only.
7. Master Volume
The Master Volume control knob (7) will
control the combined MIC1 and Source
Output Volume Level, if the MIC1 input has
been enabled for a zone. The Master Volume
control knob will not control the Paging
Console Public Address Volume Level, or
the Line 8 Source Input Volume Level when
the Line 8 Source Input Priority Function is
enabled. This function has been designed as
a global BGM input if required.
8. MIC1 Volume
The MIC1 Volume control knob (8) will control
the MIC1 input level if this global mic has
been configured to operate within the zone.
