4. FEATURES
• Can be configured as a mixer or paging amplifier by settings, depending on application.
• Eight module slots enable audio input and output configuration ranging from 1 input and 1 output to 8 inputs
and 8 outputs.
• All settings can be performed at the unit using the built-in vacuum fluorescent display (VFD), setting keys
and Parameter setting knob on the front panel.
• Paging calls can be made from the designated outputs by setting the paging source, priority, and trigger
even while the unit is being used as a mixer.
• Up to 32 mixing settings can be stored as Scene memory, which can be recalled by the unit or external
connected equipment.
• Different paging calls can be selectively used depending on situations as two or more paging sources can be
set and different priority levels can be assigned to them. Other functions allow paging calls to be activated
with various types of triggers and up to 32 paging groups to be saved independently of scene memory.
• An RS-232C port permits remote control of the unit using an AMX* 1 or Crestron* 2 controller, or similar
external equipment.
• With the use of the optional AN-001T Ambient Noise Sensor Input module and AN-9001 Ceiling Mount
Microphone, the amplifier's output volume can be automatically adjusted in response to the change in
ambient noise level.
• Using the optional RC-001T Remote Control Module in conjunction with the Remote control panels such as
ZM-9011, ZM-9012, ZM-9013, or ZM-9014 permits operations including scene and sound source switchings,
paging initiation, control output ON/OFF, and volume adjustment to be remotely controlled.
• The optional ZM-9001 Zone Manager adds 6 control inputs, while the optional ZM-9002 Zone Manager adds
4 control inputs and 1 volume control.
• A ducker function* 3 permits paging calls to be made without interrupting BGM broadcasts. Besides, an auto-
mixing function (ducker function* 3 and NOM attenuation function* 4 ) automatically adjusts the output gain.

* 3 The Ducker function automatically attenuates input signals with lower priority when two or more audio
signals are simultaneously received.
* 4 The NOM (Number of Open Microphones) attenuation function automatically adjusts the output channel
gain depending on the number of open microphones.
