INTRODUCTION
This BACKGROUND MUSIC SYSTEM (BMS 1032) was developed to answer the need for a digital high
quality stereo sound distribution along with reliable paging. This system works in conjunction with all com-
mercial systems such as AEI, DMX, Muzak, etc. as well as any audio sources including CD’s, radios etc.
Using this system, a customer can select among 10 stereo audio sources from an elegant wall plate located
in each room.The system is designed for “sky boxes”, luxury suites: small salons, professional offices (doc-
tors, lawyers,commercial suites); cruise ships; and just about any space that requires a selection of multiple
background music sources as well as paging.
All of this capability is installed with just a single Category (Cat) 5 cable run from the head end to each of
the possible 32 rooms.
The system consists of the following equipment;
1. A rack or shelf mounted chassis 2 rack units high (3.5”). This chassis contains all the control cir-
cuitry and the main stereo audio input. It has mounting space for up to 8 stereo output modules,
each module capable of suppling 4 rooms.
2. A number of output modules depending on the order requirement.
3. A stereo audio control panel (2 gang)
4. A power supply for the main chassis
System features include:
1. Category 5 interconnect cabling.
2. A page override system functions at a user defined volume level independent of wall plate set
tings.
3. Digital transmission of stereo audio to all rooms (up to 32 rooms per system).
4. Two gang wall plate in each room, controls volume, channel selection, and page programming.
5.The wall plate outputs stereo line level audio to the contractor supplied powered speakers or local
amp and speaker (8 ohms only) system in each room.
6. A local audio input (personal CD player or VCR) can also be connected in each room and
selected from the wall plate. The wall plate can control volume of the local device and still allow
paging through the speakers, even when the music is turned off.
7. Headphones can be connected to the wall plate. when headphones are connected, the other
speakers are silenced. However, paging still will go through the speakers, and line output, as well
as the headphones.
