Quick Start

If you were the type that cheated on school book reports

by just skimming through the reading assignments, then this

section is for you! It gives you not quite enough information to

really know what you’re doing. But, if you follow the recom-

mended set up procedure, you should get at least a “B.”

Keep the amplifiers and the CP 52 turned off until all con-

nections are made.

PAGE INPUT

Connect the PAGING INPUT to the Euroblock on the rear

panel. On the front, select the appropriate MIC or LINE switch

position. Then set the gain with the INPUT TRIM control,

then set the PAGING DETECT THRESHOLD and finally the

PAGING LEVEL

. MIC PHANTOM POWER, HIGH/LOW

CUT FILTER

and PAGE LEVEL TRACKS ZONE LEVEL

switches are located on the rear panel.

PROGRAM INPUTS

Connect line level program sources to the RCA PROGRAM

INPUT

jacks (LINE L1, L2, L3 & PRIORITY). If you have a

priority program, like a jukebox, connect it to the PRIORITY

Input. The rear panel PRIORITY switch turns priority override

ON

or OFF. The Priority program is automatically selected when

signal is detected at its Input. Set the rear panel PROGRAM

DETECT THRESHOLD

and RELEASE TIME as desired.

EXPAND OUTPUT

Wire the EXPAND OUTPUT Euroblock as required to a

mono feed delivering PAGE-only, PROGRAM-only or ZONE

(both) signal depending on the switch setting. This Output uses

a cross-coupled line driver and may be used balanced or unbal-

anced. Adjust the EXPAND OUTPUT LEVEL trim as desired.

ZONE OUTPUT

The ZONE OUTPUT uses a cross-coupled line driver and

may be used balanced or unbalanced. Set the front panel LIMIT

THRESHOLD

as required. Depress the rear panel MONO

switch for a mono Zone.

ZR 1 REMOTE

You may use one ZR 1 Remote (sold separately) with the CP

52. Wire it to the ZONE REMOTE Euroblock as indicated. If

a ZR 1 remote is not used, any simple switch closure to ground

will work for the D0 and D1 pins. These pins are TTL compat-

ible (0 to 5 VDC). The logic is inverse Gray Code. Any ground

referenced 5 volt DC control may be used as the input to Vc. Do

not ground the Vr pin.

READ ME

The CP 52 is very versatile. While this makes a large number

of system applications possible, it also results in complexity. For

this reason, it is important to use an organized approach for setup

and calibration. A highly recommended setup procedure appears

on page Manual-5. Please follow it to encounter fewer problems

and reduce the need to increase our collective phone bills.

CAUTION: Never connect anything except an approved

Rane Power supply to the thing that looks like a red telephone
jack on the rear of the CP 52.

This is an 18 VAC center tapped

power input. Consult the Rane factory for a replacement or

substitution.
