After connecting the external devices, do the following procedures:
•Mode setting
•Input signal assignment to the SUB OUTPUT jack
•Output signal assignment to the LINE IN jack, MULTI INPUT ST jacks, or MULTI INPUT MONO connector.
■Unit Modes and Signal Flow
This unit has three modes. Set the suitable mode with DIP switch for the desired broadcasting system. 
●Mode 1
Stereo or monaural amplification are applicable in Mode 1. 
The stereo and mono input signals are mixed for output.
Stereo amplification...

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 is adjusted with STEREO OUT knob.
DIP switch setting
Switches A and B are set to ON.

●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.

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...

●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 broadcasting in any zone)
•The signals from the MONO INPUT 3 connector are output through the STEREO OUTPUT jack (Zone 1) and the signals
from MONO INPUT 4 connector are...

■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
jack. The output setting is determined with the assign button setting at the front panel. Refer to p. 19. 
●DIP switch setting
The input line is assigned to the...

19
■Output Line Setting for MULTI 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 input connector.
●Assign button setting
The output line is assigned to the MULTI INPUT ST jacks, the MULTI INPUT
MONO connector or the LINE IN jack with an...

When using the MULTI 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. The MULTI IN knob is not
adjustable, as each multiple input level is different.
•Mono and stereo input signals are mixed inside the unit. When you do not want to...
