User manual RANE CP 64

[. . . ] OPERATORS MANUAL CP 64 COMMERCIAL PROCESSOR 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 recommended set up procedure, you should get at least a "B. " Keep the amplifiers and the CP 64 turned off until all connections are made. INTERNAL SETTINGS: Access to the following internal controls requires removal of the top cover. [. . . ] You may wish to shorten the internally set Priority Release Time. · Set the Zone 1 Expand source switch to PAGE for Office Page. · Set the Zone 2 Expand source switch to PROGRAM for Telephone music-on-hold. · Set both Zone PROGRAM SELECT switches to RMT to enable the ZR 1 remotes.

Front Panel Settings: Rear Panel Settings: Use of an isolation transformer is highly recommended with Program audio inputs driven from long cable lines. This is also true for audio sources fed from satellite systems like DSS, DMX, Primestar, AEI, TV Cable, etc. Cable systems are generally earth grounded down the street from the installation. If NO is selected, neither Page Input has priority and both Pagers may be active at the same time. This allows 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 independent of the Program Level, set the switch for that Zone to "Post. " This is the desired setting for emergency paging. If "Pre" is selected, Paging signals sum with Program signals before the VCA. In this instance both Page and Program signal levels are affected by the ZONE Manual-8 LEVEL control. Note the following: · Zone Level, EQ and Limiter circuits do not affect Page signals summed Post-VCA. · Zone Level, EQ and Limiter circuits do affect Page signals summed Pre-VCA. · Page signals are not available on the Expand Zone output when summed Post-VCA. · Page signals are always available for the Expand Page output. There are two internal controls related to the Program Priority detector: · Priority Release Time 2 sec to 20 sec (trim pot) Default: 12 seconds · Priority Threshold - to -35 dBu (trim pot) Default: -50 dBu The default settings for the Program Priority detector are chosen for most applications. Detector Threshold settings lower than the default setting of -50 dBu are prone to false triggering unless the source is very quiet. [. . . ] Adjust the rear panel Zone Limit thresholds so that they just start to audibly reduce the output level. This ensures that the level in a Zone will never be louder than the maximum level you just set. If you wish one of the Zones to have a lower maximum loudness, lower the Zone Limit threshold accordingly. Turn the Zone Level controls down to a comfortable listening level. [. . . ]
