) using standard open disclosure communication protocol to control 

the mixer. Configuration software shall be provided with each automatic 

mixer. It shall be possible to configure an entire linked system from one 

mixer (master). The software shall be graphical in nature operating on the 

standard Windows

 operating system.

Two audio outputs (one balanced, one unbalanced) shall be provided to 

drive amplification systems or other equipment. A master output control 

shall be provided to set the overall level of the SmartMixer

®

. An adjust-

able limiter shall be provided on the main output to prevent overdriving. 

A front panel headphone jack with level control and an LED output level 

indicator shall be provided to monitor the audio output of the mixer.  

It shall be possible to select the output indicator function pre or post 

master level control.

Up to 16 automatic mixers (a total of 128 channels) may be daisy-chained 

for large multi-mic installations. When operating in this way, the output 

for all of the linked mixers shall appear at the master mixer in the chain. 

Last mic on, NOMA and other configuration settings shall cascade 

through the entire chain of linked mixers. Each mixer shall include the 

cable for linking units together.

The mixer shall be designed to mount in a standard 19" equipment rack 

occupying no more than one rack space. Rack ears shall be integral to the 

unit. All system settings shall be possible via front panel controls or soft-

ware programming without having to remove the mixer from the rack.  

A security cover shall be available to prevent unauthorized tampering 

with front panel controls and it shall be possible to lock out programming 

functions via the software or front panel switch sequence. The mixer shall 

be designed with a universal internal power supply enabling it to operate 

internationally on any global power system. It shall be provided with 

proper IEC-type mains power cable specific to its location and an RS232 

computer interface cable for programming (North America only).
