COMMERCIAL PROCESSOR
QUICK START
If you were the type that cheated on school book reports by just skimming through the reading assignments, then this
section is for you! It gives you not quite enough information to
really
know what you’re doing. But, if you follow the
recommended set up procedure, you should get at least a “B.”
Keep the amplifiers and the CP 52 turned
off
until all connections are made.
PAGE INPUT
Connect the
PAGING INPUT
to the Euroblock on the rear panel. On the front, select the appropriate
MIC
or
LINE
switch position. Then set the gain with the
PAGING TRIM
control, then set the
PAGING DETECT THRESHOLD
and
finally the
PAGING LEVEL
.
PHANTOM POWER
,
HIGH/LOW CUT FILTER
and
PAGE LEVEL TRACKS
ZONE LEVEL
switches are located on the rear panel.
PROGRAM INPUTS
Connect line level program sources to the RCA
PROGRAM INPUT
jacks (
LINE 1
,
2
,
3
&
P)
. If you have a priority
program, like a jukebox, connect it to the
PRIORITY
Input. The Program
PRIORITY
assign switch turns priority
override
ON
or
OFF
. The Priority program is automatically selected when signal is detected at its Input. Set the
PROGRAM DETECT THRESHOLD
and
RELEASE TIME
as desired.
ZONE EXPAND
Wire the
ZONE EXPAND
Output Euroblock as required to a mono feed delivering
PAGE
-only,
PROGRAM
-only or
ZONE
(both) signal depending on the switch setting. This Output uses a cross-coupled line driver and may be used
balanced or unbalanced. Adjust the
ZONE EXPAND LEVEL
trim as desired.
ZONE OUTPUT
The
ZONE OUTPUT
uses a cross-coupled line driver and may be used balanced or unbalanced. Set the front panel
LIMIT THRESHOLD
as required. Depress the
MONO
switch for a mono Zone.
ZR 1 REMOTE
You may use one
ZR 1
Remote (sold separately) with the CP 52. Wire it to the
ZONE REMOTE
Euroblock as
indicated. If a ZR 1 remote is not used, any simple switch closure to GND will work for the
D0
and
D1
pins. These pins
are TTL compatible (0 to 5 VDC). The logic is inverse Gray Code. Any ground referenced 5 volt DC control may be used
as the input to
Vc
. Do
not
ground the
Vr
pin.
The CP 52 is
very
versatile. While this makes a large number of system applications possible, it also results in com-
plexity. For this reason, it is
important to use an organized approach for setup and calibration.
A
highly
recommended
setup procedure appears on page Manual-7. By following it you will encounter fewer problems and reduce the need to
increase our collective phone bills.
CAUTION: Never connect anything except an approved Rane Power supply to the thing that looks like a red
telephone jack on the rear of the CP 52.
This is an 18 VAC center tapped power input. Consult the Rane factory for a
replacement or substitution.
