15 Mono amplification The signals from stereo or mono inputs are mixed and output through the MONO OUTPUT jack toward one zone. Signal Flow To adjust the output levels Mono and stereo outputs are individually adjustable. In the case shown in the figure, the volume of microphones is adjusted with the MONO OUT knob and that of stereo source devices i[...]

16 ● Mode 2 The stereo input signals are output through the STEREO OUTPUT jack, and mono input signals are output through MONO OUTPUT jack. BGM is output from the main speakers with stereo amplification, and microphone sounds are output from the ceiling speakers with monaural amplification. Signal Flow To adjust the output levels Mono and stereo [...]

17 ● Mode 3 The signals from stereo or mono input lines are separately output through the STEREO OUTPUT, MONO OUTPUT and SUB OUTPUT jack. For example, this connection is used for zone amplification in a shop. • The signals from the MONO INPUT 1 and 2 connectors are output through the STEREO OUTPUT and MONO OUTPUT jacks. (Input for all-call broa[...]

18 ■ Input Line Setting for SUB OUTPUT The SUB OUTPUT jack at the rear panel can output any signal from the STEREO INPUT 1 to 4 jacks or MONO INPUT 1 to 4 connectors. The output setting is determined with the DIP switch setting. The input signal from the LINE IN jack, MULTI INPUT ST jacks or MULTI INPUT MONO is also assignable to the SUB OUTPUT j[...]

19 ■ Output Line Setting for MUL TI IN/LINE IN The signal from the MULTI IN ST jacks and MULTI IN MONO connector at the rear panel can be output through any of the STEREO OUT, MONO OUT and SUB OUTPUT jacks The output connector is assigned with the assign switches at the front panel. The LINE IN jack at the front panel is also usable as a multiple[...]

20 When using the MUL TI INPUT ST jacks (or MONO connector) and LINE IN jack at the same time In this case, the signal from the MULTI INPUT ST jacks will not be output. The signal is mixed inside the unit and output through the assigned output connector. Notes: • Do not use the MULTI INPUT ST jacks and MULTI INPUT MONO connector at the same time.[...]

21 ■ Example 1: Home Party (Mode 1) •S et the DIP switches to Mode 1. (Refer to p. 15.). • Mic 1 to 4 (MONO IN 1 to 4), Key (ST IN 1), Bass AMP (ST IN 2) and DVD/CD/MD (ST IN 3 and 4) are mixed to be output to the main speakers (ST OUT L/R). • The power amplifier adjusts the output level of sound sources you want to confirm. These are then [...]
