Installing multiple Loudmouth

 receivers and PA speakers

 

Many locations may require the installation of multiple Loudmouth

 receivers and PA speakers. Multiple receivers 

and PA speakers are used when: 

 

Paging separate buildings is required. 

 

The coverage area is too large for a single receiver and PA speaker. 

 

Zone paging is required. 

 

Paging is required in more than one location. 

 

Zone paging, or paging in more than one location requires a separate 
Loudmouth

 receiver for each area. 

  

 

With zone paging all radios can operate on the same Loudmouth

 radio frequency.  

 Each 

Loudmouth

 receiver can be programmed for a unique paging code, allowing selective paging to 

each zone.  

 The 

Loudmouth

 receivers can be programmed for an All Call* code that allows paging of all zones at 

once, or Group Call* to page more than one zone. 

 

Zone paging allows for volume levels that are programmed to the specific needs of that area. 

 

If zone paging is not necessary, all Loudmouth

 receivers can be programmed for the same paging 

code. 

* All Call and Group Call code programming requires the Ritron Loudmouth

 PC Programmer. 

 

 

 

 

Example of Zone paging 

Zone 1 – Warehouse and loading dock 

  Single Loudmouth receiver with 2 speakers. 

  One speaker is located inside the warehouse and the 

other is located outside for the loading dock. 

  Speaker volume is set to 50% for the warehouse 

environment. 

Zone 2 – Cafeteria 

  Single Loudmouth receiver with 1 speaker. 

  The speaker is located inside the cafeteria area. 

  Speaker volume is set to 25% for the restaurant 

environment. 

Zone 3 – Sales office 

  Single Loudmouth receiver with 1 speaker. 

  The speaker is located inside the Sales office. 

  Speaker volume is set to 10% for the office environment.
