DCM1 & DCM1e Installation and User Guide V1.0 11
Applications and Examples
The DCM1 will find applications in many types of premises,
including shops, bars, hotels, schools, conference centres,
offices, etc. The configurational flexibility of the DCM1 means
that it can be set up by the system designer to provide
precisely the facilities the user needs.
A few simple examples are given below to illustrate typical
installations.

ZONE 1
This depicts a simple system where four possible audio sources are made available to three or more zones (areas). Only three
are shown for clarity. Points to note:
•
Each of the three areas shown is equipped with a
CDR-1 remote control. Note that Area 3’s remote is
wired directly back to the DCM1, while those in Areas
1 and 2 are daisy-chained together and wired back
to the DCM1 separately. This is possible because the
DCM1/CDR-1 permit almost any wiring topology that is
convenient for the building layout.
•
Area 3 has a Cloud PM paging microphone, which would
be used to originate voice messages to any of the other
areas. The paging level to Area 3 (if required) would be
adjusted on installation to be at a level that does not
cause feedback.
