Congratulations on purchasing the MPAII Mixer/Power Amplifier II. This eight-
channel, PC-controlled, automatic microphone mixer and power amplifier is a
proven solution for distance learning, panel discussions, audioconferencing and
videoconferencing applications, broadcast studios, courtrooms, hotels and
government meetings.
The MPAII contains commonly requested features such as an RS232 connection
for PC control, logic output and user-programmable gated microphone operation.
The latter allows you select which microphones and how many you wish to gate
or not to gate; this reduces noise and increases intelligibility. The MPAII also
comes equipped with several factory-designed programs and user-changeable
programs to compliment any environmental need.
This manual explains how to install, set up and operate your MPAII. It also
provides instructions on how to improve room acoustics and resolve minor
technical problems, should any arise.
If you need information on how to install, set up or operate your system, please
contact Gentner Communications Corporation at the location noted below. We
welcome and encourage your comments so we can continue to improve our
products and serve your teleconferencing needs.
