PAGE 9 

Mini-Gen 

Mini-Gen is an alternative tone generator to  
T-GEN 50, but with lower power and fewer 
facilities. 

The 

MX1

 Slimline cabinet gear plate has 

mounting footprints for two Mini-Gens, 
overlapped with the T-GEN 50 footprint.  The 
first Mini-Gen should be mounted in the lower 
position, so that it is earthed by the metal 
standoff.  The second Mini-Gen is mounted 
on plastic standoffs, and should be earthed 
to the first Mini-Gen as shown in Figure 9. 
 
On the 15U cabinet gear plate both Mini-
Gens are mounted on plastic stand-offs.  
Earth the Mini-Gens using the spare earth 
lead included in the panel. 

Mini-Gens must be connected to the ANC3 
relay output since this has sufficient current 
rating.  This relay can be configured for full 
supervision of loudspeaker wiring, using the 
27k

 EOLRs provided with the 

MX1

All Mini-Gens must have their 2W 
supervision link fitted.  If only one Mini-Gen is 
used, the unused 27k

 EOLRs must be 

connected to its DC terminals so that there 
are still three EOLRs in total. 

The 

MX1

 

must be configured to have “ANC3” 

supervision enabled for the ANC3 relay. 

 

 

Figure 9 

– Wiring Ancillary Relay to Mini-Gen(s) 

 

Multiple Branched Loads 

Ancillary relay ANC3 can supervise wiring to 
controlled loads on up to three branches.  This 
output can switch loads up to 5A resistive at 
30V.  Figure 10 shows the necessary wiring. 

The loads must all be isolated with diodes as 
shown in the figure.  A suitable diode for loads 
up to 1A each is 1N5404. 

Inductive loads such as bells must have 
suppression capacitors or diodes fitted as well. 

For a single branch, the EOLR is 9.1k

.  For 

two branches, each EOLR is 18k

.  For three 

branches, each EOLR is 27k

Suitable EOLRs are supplied with the 

MX1

The 

MX1

 

must be configured to have “ANC3” 

supervision enabled for the ANC3 relay.
