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.
