ML-800
INTRODUCTION
The design of the ML-800 system takes advantage of current technology to provide a blend of reliability,
ease of use, flexibility, and reasonable cost. Designed for Hotels and Conference Centers with divisible,
multi-use meeting rooms, the ML-800 unifies the audio system of each room being joined together with
the touch of a button. Each control panel, speaker, amp, etc. will automatically operate as one sound
system. Any number of rooms (up to 16 per system) can be combined in any number of groups. The
custom software, which is provided, allows the system to be tailored to specific system requirements.
The ML-800 eliminates the need for skilled operators and can be used by staff members with minimum
instruction. The combining can be controlled from multiple locations depending on the system options,
and specific functions can be controlled from each room. The quality of the sound system is not com-
promised by this system. Built-in safeguards prevent system failure due to misuse or failure of one
component.

Installation Manual
In each room a wallplate controls music and local input functions (local input on/off, room mixer enable,
music select, and volume up/down switches for local input and music.) A bar graph display is provided
for local input and music.
The security key switch or access code on the touch panel prevents unauthorized control of the system.
Dip switches inside the Audio Control Unit determine whether the key switch or code interlocks all the
wallplate functions, microphone functions only, or no wallplate functions.
The system is shipped in a default setting which will permit instant operation of the system in its usual
configuration. Please refer to the Dip switch/Jumper settings for pertinent details on the switch func-
tions.
