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.
