Notes - Restaurant/Bar Application
1. The ZonePRO 640 device is located in the manager’s office and provides front panel
source selection for the waiting area.
2. Both the restaurant and the bar area have ZC controllers. The bar is using them for
source selection (ZC-3) and volume control (ZC-1). The ZC-1 in the restaurant is used
for volume control, and the ZC-3 is used for scene changes.
3. Paging is done from the hostess station and is pre-assigned to the bar and the waiting
area.
4. The Zone Controllers for the bar and restaurant are wired with Cat 5 cable in series
with the bar ZC-3 and ZC-1 as ID#2 and #3, and the restaurant ZC-3 and ZC-1 as ID#1
and #4.
5. Scenes have been created that accommodate changes in the venue such as a volume
boost in the bar for happy hour as well as the regular volume boost in the restaurant
for the lunch time rush and the dinner crowd.
6. The ZC-3 in the restaurant is used to change between scenes as needed.
7. The Schedule function has been used to load the restaurant “Level Boost” scene
automatically at the beginning of the lunch and dinner periods.
8. EQ, Feedback Suppression, and Compression are used on the hostess mic to help
improve intelligibility and reduce unwanted feedback in the system.
9. Limiting is used in the bar area to provide system protection.
10. AutoWarmth® is engaged in the bar and restaurant to maintain the bandwidth even
when the level drops, while Auto Gain Control is being used in the waiting area to
maintain the signal level.
11. Output EQ is used in all zones to make the system sound as good as possible.
