INTERNAL ADJUSTMENTS

There are a number of controls inside the CP 64 used to

configure the system for specific applications. Access to these

controls is only required during initial system setup. Set up all

internal controls before the CP 64 is installed in a rack or wired

into a system. Make sure the power is off before removing the

top cover to gain access. Refer to the diagram below for control

locations.

There are five internal switches related to the two Page Inputs:

• Page 1 Phantom Power

15VDC

Default: OFF

• Page 2 Phantom Power

15VDC

Default: OFF

• Page Priority

P1, NO, P2 Default: P1

• Z1 Page

Sum Pre- or Post-VCA

Default: Pre-VCA

• Z2 Page

Sum Pre- or Post-VCA

Default: Pre-VCA

Phantom Power

is available for both Page Inputs. If phan-

tom power is required for the intended microphone, then set the

appropriate switch to ON. If a Page Input Mic/Line pad switch is

set to LINE, phantom power is automatically defeated.

The Page Priority switch allows you to select one of the Page

Inputs as a Priority Page Input. The Priority Pager overrides the

non-priority Pager in the Zone(s) it is assigned. It is important

to note that the non-priority Pager may still broadcast in any

Zone that the Priority Pager is not assigned to or not currently

broadcasting in. Set the switch to P1 if you wish Page 1 to have

priority over Page 2. If you wish Page 2 to have priority over Page

1, set the switch to P2. If NO is selected, neither Page Input has

priority and both Pagers may be active at the same time. This al-

lows the Page Inputs to mix for applications like karaoke or PA.

If a Page Input is used for emergency paging, set it as the Priority

Pager.

The Z1 Page and Z2 Page switches allow you to sum Page

signals with Program signals “Pre” (before) or “Post” (after) the

VCA. The VCA is used for Zone Level control and Limiting.

Therefore, if you require the Page Level to be controlled indepen-

dent of the Program Level, set the switch for that Zone to “Post.”

This is the desired setting for emergency paging. If “Pre” is se-

lected, Paging signals sum with Program signals before the VCA.

In this instance both Page and Program signal levels are affected
