Logic Outputs:

  This 9-pin Sub-D connector provides Logic 

Outputs 1~8 (see Logic Outputs on pg. 15).  Logic Outputs may 
be used to control external switching circuits, such as relays or 
other BIAMP products.  These outputs are typically used to 
provide simultaneous audio & video source selection, by 
controlling an external video switching device.

 

 

Logic Inputs:

  This 9-pin Sub-D (female) connector provides 

eight logic inputs for controlling the SPM723 via contact-
closures (see Logic Inputs on pg. 14).  Logic Input functions are 
programmed via software (see Setup on pg. 9).  

NOTE:

  From 

the factory, Logic Inputs 1~8 have no pre-programmed function. 

 

Main & Zone Outputs:  

These plug-in barrier strips provide the 

balanced stereo line-level Main & Zone Outputs.  For balanced 
output, wire high to (+), low to (-), and ground to (

d

).  For 

unbalanced output (-6dB gain), wire high to (+) and ground to 
(

d

), leaving (-) unconnected.  Main & Zone Outputs can be set 

for stereo or mono operation, and include signals from Line 
Inputs 1~7 and Mic/Line Inputs 1 & 2, as determined via 
software (see Setup on pg. 4).

 

 

Aux Output:  

This plug-in barrier strip provides the balanced 

stereo line-level Aux Output.  For balanced output, wire high to 
(+), low to (-), and ground to (

d

).  For unbalanced output (-6dB 

gain), wire high to (+) and ground to (

d

), leaving (-) 

unconnected.  Aux Output can be set for stereo or mono 
operation, and includes signals from Main & Zone Outputs, as 
determined via software (see Setup on pg. 7).

 

 

Line Inputs 1~6:  

These RCA connectors provide the 

unbalanced stereo Line Inputs 1~6.

 

 

Line Input 7:  

This plug-in barrier strip provides the unbalanced 

stereo Line Input 7.  Line Input 7 can instead be set for balanced 
mono input, via software (see Setup on pg. 4).

 

 

Override:  

This plug-in barrier strip provides Line Input 7 

Override, which is a priority selection of that input over all other 
stereo line inputs.  Wiring (sig pres) to (override) causes 
automatic override whenever signal is present at Line Input 7.  
Manual override instead uses a contact-closure wired between 
(override) & (

d

).  Override functions are determined via 

software (see Setup on pg. 13).

 

 

Mic/Line Inputs 1 & 2:  

These plug-in barrier strips provide the 

balanced mono inputs for Mic/Line 1 & 2.  For balanced input, 
wire high to (+), low to (-), and ground to (

d

).  For unbalanced 

input, wire high to (+), and ground to both (-) & (

d

).  Mic/Line 1 

& 2 functions are determined via software (see Setup on pg. 6).

 

 

Mute:  

These plug-in barrier strips provide for ‘talk-over' ducking 

of the stereo line input signals.  By wiring (signal present) to 
(mute), automatic ducking will occur whenever signal is present 
at the respective Mic/Line Input.  Manual ducking instead uses a 
contact-closure wired between (mute) & (

d

).  Mute functions are 

determined via software (see Setup on pgs. 11 & 12).
