Wired Assignment Module (WAM)
A. Dual Assignment Thumbwheels (1 through 10)
B. Wired back up ports, 6 pin XLR, two line (1 through 10)
C. DA-15 connections for each assignment position (not used in Tempest NG or X-System)
D. DA-15 connections to the WIM 8(RD)
The WAM 10 is the module that routes lines, or conversations, to the desired individuals on X-System. It connects to the
intercom system through the WIM 8(RD) and from the WIM 8(RD) to the AudioCom
®
intercom power supplies and the
stadium dry pair.
The WAM 10 is used to “patch” wired users to specific lines of intercom. The selectors or “thumbwheels” allow for selection
of talk lines to be made for each user on the system. Each wired user is plugged into the XLR provided under that coach’s
setting. Should a wireless coach require a wired unit during an outage or “back up” situation, a wired unit can be plugged
into the XLR provided under that coaches setting. It should be noted, however, that the wireless system and the wired back
up can be used at the same time.
The front of the WAM 10 has ten coach positions: 1 through 10. Each position has a two digit thumbwheel and a 6-pin XLR
connector. For each coach, the thumbwheel is used to select which lines (conversations) that a coach will have access
to. For example, if you have a coach that wants to communicate between lines one (1) and three (3), the left side of the
thumbwheel for that coach would be set to “1,” while the right side of that coach’s thumbwheel would be set to “3.” If you
have a coach that should only communicate on line four (4), both sides of that coach’s thumbwheel would be dialed to “4.”
In this scenario, the coach can move the selector on the BeltPack, but the net result is that he remains on line four.
