5.2. Glossary • Ducker function The Ducker function automatically attenuates input signals with lower priority when two or more audio signals are simultaneously received. This function cannot be used if any of such received inputs is not set for the Ducker function. • VOX (Voice Operated Exchange) function (D-001T only) This function activates the set Event when an audio signal is input. No Event is activated when no input signal exists. If the audio signal drops below a preset level after t

[Changing the indicated channels on the LEVEL output meter] The output meter indicates the signal levels of only a set of 4 channels: CH 1 – 4 (factory-preset) or CH 5 – 8. Pressing the Up shift key alternately switches the level indication between CH 1 – 4 and CH 5 – 8. The LEVEL indicator of the output meter status indicator flashes while the CH 5 – 8 are indicated, and stays lit while the CH 1 – 4 are indicated. In the same manner, the output meter also changes in the Fader indication. d B kH

8.2. Optional Modules 8.2.1. D-001T (2-channel input module) The D-001T module is designed for use with the 9000 Series amplifiers. Up to 4 modules (8 channels in total) can be inserted into the amplifier. The module can handle signals ranging from microphone level (–60 dB) to line level (–10 dB) in 9 input sensitivity levels. Phantom power (24 V) can be supplied for microphone level (–60 dB to –30 dB) signals. The D-001T module has an internal digital signal processor that can process input

8.2.3. ZP-001T (Zone paging module) The ZP-001T module is designed for use with the 9000 Series amplifiers and functions as an interface to connect the 9000 Series amplifiers to an analog PABX, allowing zone paging to be initiated from the PABX. There are two operation modes: Ring signal and Paging port modes. Select one of the two modes when using this module. The operation method differs depending on the set operation mode.

9. OPERATION To operate the unit in the matrix mode, make necessary settings in advance such as the audio input/output settings and event settings (including broadcast pattern and BGM broadcast group). 9.1. Normal Operation Mode In the matrix mode, the unit need not be manually operated in normal conditions since the set broadcast patterns can be activated by means of remote control. However, it is also possible to adjust the volume or activate the broadcast patterns directly using the front pan
