Connect analog or digital audio devices (CD players, rout-

ers, VistaMax outputs, recorders, etc.) to the remaining un-

used inputs (J1, J2 and J3 for analog devices; J13, J14 and

J15 for digital devices). If any analog devices use unbalanced

-10 dBv outputs, set the appropriate rear panel slide switch to

the -10 dBv position (see the rear panel drawing on page 7 for

switch setting details).

If a talkback system is being used, connect incoming talk

audio to pins 1, 2, 3 of J6. Connect the outgoing talk audio

wiring to pins 4, 5, 6 of J9.

Connect an analog External Monitor signal to J4 and con-

nect powered monitor speakers to J7. The Program 1 analog

stereo output is on J8 and the AES-3 digital output is on J16.

The Program 2 analog stereo output is on J11 and the AES-3

digital output is on J17.

Logic Interface

All logic inputs and outputs use the same type of circuits as

shown in block diagram form for J29, below. To activate in-

puts (like Ext. Talk on J29, pin 7), jumper the Activate (+)

input to a + voltage source (any +5 Volts pin can be used with

an isolated control panel). On J29, pin 1 can be jumpered to

pin 2. Inputs are activated by a logic low, so a “Talk to SMX

d”

push switch (SPST) connects to pin 7 and 8 (Ground). The

Talk Tally output (pins 4 and 5) can be used to control an

audio relay for switching in the talk audio output (on J9) to

an external location.

Pins 10 and 11 connect to a dry-contact input warning lamp

interface (like the Harris WL-2). If the warning interface re-

quires high or low logic, and it is isolated, then J29 pin 12 (+5

Volts) or J29 pin 9 (Logic Ground) can be used to supply the

proper logic through J29 pins 10 or 11, otherwise source

ground or power from the warning lamp interface.

J33 has six 250 msec start command contact closures for

CD players and other remote-start devices. Channel 2 through

7 have separate outputs. Each output is identical to the Talk

Tally connection on J29 (a solid-state dry contact). There is

also a timer reset output, for resetting an event timer, on J33.

Internal DIPswitch DS2 Settings

DS2 has eight switches. DS2-1 thru -4 are not used in SMX

d.

Table 2 (Peak Level Set), shown above, details the DS2 switch

settings.

 DS2-5 and DS2-6 set the signal level where the blue peak

LEDs turn on. The default setting is 0 dB, but the level can be

set to 0, -2, -4, or -6 dB below full scale.

DS2-8 sets the meter display format. When DS2-8 is set to

on, then only the average audio level is shown (a solid bar

indicating average level). When DS2-8 is set to off (the default

setting) both average and peak indications are shown.

With DS2-8 set to off, DS2-7 becomes active. It sets whether

the peak indication is held for about one second, or whether it

immediately starts to decay. The peak indications always de-

cay at about 1 segment per 1/4 second.

To identify each channel’s source, remove the channel on/

off button lens by prying up on the top edge. Use clear label

tape or clear mylar to label the channels. Place the trimmed

mylar onto the buttoncap and snap the lens back in place. A
