DIPEX

5

1.  Trig: 

trigger input: connect your voltage free priority contact here

2.  GND:

 ground connection for the voltage free priority contact

3.  GND:

 ground connection for the analog line level signal

4.  SIG-:

 line level signal negative input (balanced)*

5.  SIG+:

 line level signal positive input (balanced)

6.   Config/test  button:

 push the button to install the DIPEX unit with the 

AudioControl 12.8. By pushing the config/test button the first time, the unit 
will receive an address from the main unit. After receiving an address, the 
button also functions as a priority test switch

7.  Power led: 

blue led lights up when the unit is powered

8.   Status  led:

 the led shows the status from the DIPEX unit: green color: the 

unit is paging, priority is active. The incoming audio signal will pass through. 
Orange color: paging is requested, or the chime is sounding (priority level 
1 to 7). Red: paging is not allowed because a higher priority unit keeps the 
paging line occupied. Out of the box, the DIPEX has highest priority and the 
status led will never be red. When this led blinks, there is no connection to an 
AudioControl 12.8, or the DIPEX unit has not received an address from the 
AudioControl 12.8. 

9.   24 VDC jack:

 connect an external DC power supply here if the master unit is 

unable to supply the power for the required number of microphones. Consult 
the manual of your AudioControl 12.8 for more details.

10.  Output  (link):

 RJ45 connector. Connect multiple DIPEX end DIMIC units in a 

daisy chain. Output (link) and input are internally hardwired to each other. 
Audiocontrol 12.8 can power a maximum of 8 devices.

11.  Input: RJ45 connector: 

connect the DIPEX to the AudioControl 12.8 using a 

standard CAT5 cable

12. Output level adjustment: 

turn the potentiometer to adjust the output level
