J1  =  ZONE  2

Internal jumpers allow either zone to operate in 
mono (see Figure 4). In the mono mode of 
operation, both the left and right output sockets 
carry the same mono signal and either or both 
sockets can be used. Separate remote control of 
the mono signal on the left and right output 
socket can be achieved by wiring two RL-1 
control plates to the 4 pin connector as shown in 
Figure 2 When this feature is used, we suggest 
that the respective front panel level control is 
defeated (see section 4.3).

6 Priority 

When a Juke Box or Spot Announce Player is connected to the CX133, fully automatic 
priority over any selected line input can be achieved by using the Line 3 input and 
configuring the relevant internal jumpers (see Figure 3). When this mode of operation is 
selected, the unit will operate normally until a signal is detected on line 3 and this causes the 
selected signal (usually background music) to mute, allowing the signal on line 3 to operate 
with priority. Once the signal on line 3 ceases, the selected signal will smoothly restore to its 
former level. The time taken for the selected signal to be restored can be set at 3, 6 or 12 
seconds by fitting the appropriate jumper (J5) on the printed circuit board. The line 3 priority 
option can be configured to operate on either or both zone outputs.

The Line 3 priority does not operate on the Utility Output, however we have included the 
option to select the utility zone to operate with Line 3 priority if preferred – please contact our
