APPLICATIONS
‘In-Line’ Room Combining
Programming of the PMX84 for this application can be done by simply opening & downloading a file (inline4a.pmx) during Configuration.
This application shows (4) rooms in a row (‘inline’). Each room has (2) mics & (1) auxiliary input connected to an Advantage 301e. The
301e mic/line mixers provide mixing, remote level control, auto-muting of aux inputs, and balanced line-level outputs for Rooms 1~4. The
301e outputs for Rooms 1~4 are then connected to Inputs 1~4 of the PMX84, respectively. Outputs A~D of the PMX84 are connected to
inputs of Advantage D60EQs for Rooms 1~4, respectively. The D60EQs provide amplification, equalization, & transformer output
necessary for the distributed speakers in each room. CMA mixer/amplifiers may be used instead of the 301e mixers & D60EQ amplifiers.
A switch on each room partition is wired to the appropriate Logic Input on the PMX84 (see diagram at bottom of page). The Logic Inputs
are programmed for a ‘binary’ (room combining) mode. This allows the PMX84 to recognize the various room combinations, by reading the
status of all three room partition switches. The Logic Inputs are also programmed to perform the input/output assignments associated with
the various room combinations. Eight different room combinations are possible: 1 / 2 / 3 / 4; 1+2 / 3 / 4; 1 / 2+3 / 4; 1 / 2 / 3+4; 1+2 /
3+4; 1+2+3 / 4; 1 / 2+3+4; and 1+2+3+4. This same application can be used when combining only three rooms. Under these
circumstances, use Inputs 1~3 and Outputs A~C for Rooms 1~3 respectively, and Logic Inputs 9 & 10 for the room partition switches.
