6. SET UP
The inputs of the DigiPage can accommodate a wide range of sources including active
paging stations, dynamic microphones, DVD and CD players. The zone outputs may be used
to drive power (booster) amplifiers, mixers, or mixer amplifiers.
Each installation will require setting the appropriate relative mix of levels between paging,
program sources and local inputs for each zone and balancing between the zones.
Because of the variation in levels between the possible sources, DigiPage offers a number of
gain stage adjustment so you can set the correct levels for your application.
Also consider what the outputs are driving….
Setting up correct gain structure through the whole system is important to achieve optimal
results.
The following step by step procedure has been devised to assist during the setup process.
When the DigiPage was shipped to you from the factory it was set up in a particular way. In the
following procedure it is essential that you are starting from these initial settings.
Program Input Gain Controls - half (12 o’clock)
Local XLR Mic/Line switch - source dependant
Master Volume - off
Mic level - half (9 o’clock)
Prog level - half (9 o’clock)
Local level - half (9 o’clock)
Confirm the initial settings of DigiPage.
Choose a zone that is conveniently located near to the DigiPage or further away if you feel
you need the exercise.
This will be the referred to as “TEST ZONE”.
Ensure that all amplifiers connected to the DigiPage are set to provide required sound levels
with a line level input signal.
Choose a consistent program source, eg CD or tuner.
This will be the referred to as “TEST PROG”.
1. Select TEST PROG in the TEST ZONE [front PROG 1-6].
Set the MASTER volume in the TEST ZONE to half way.
2. Adjust the rear PROG GAIN for the TEST PROG input to achieve the required sound level
in the TEST ZONE.
3. Select PROG TEST in all other zones.
4. Bring up the MASTER volume in all other zones and check for required sound levels.
