But, if you follow the recommended set up procedure, you should get at least a "B. " Keep the amplifiers and the CP 64S turned off until all connections are made. INTERNAL SETTINGS Access to the following internal controls requires removal of the top cover. [. . . ] The dot on the circuit board shows the factory default: 1 Page 1 Phantom Power 15VDC Default: OFF 2 Page 2 Phantom Power 15VDC Default: OFF 3 Page Priority P1, NO, P2 Default: P1 4 Zone 1 Page Sum Pre- or Post-VCA Default: Pre-VCA 5 Zone 2 Page Sum Pre- or Post-VCA Default: Pre-VCA 1 2 Phantom Power is available for both Page Inputs. If phantom power is required for the intended microphone, then set the appropriate switch to ON. If a Paging Input Mic / Line pad switch is set to LINE, Phantom Power is automatically defeated. 3 Page Priority Assign allows you to select one of the Page Inputs as a Priority Page Input. The Priority Pager overrides the non-priority Pager in the Zone(s) it is assigned. Note that the non-priority Pager may still broadcast in any Zone that the Priority Pager is not assigned to or not currently broadcasting in. If you wish Page 2 to have priority over Page 1, set the switch to P2. If NO is selected, neither Paging Input has priority and both Pagers may be active at the same time. This allows the Paging Inputs to mix for applications like karaoke or PA. If a Page Input is used for emergency paging, set it as the Priority Pager. 6 1 3 2 7 8 45 Manual- 4 5 The Zone 1 Page and Zone 2 Page switches allow you to sum Page signals with Program signals "Pre" (before) or "Post" (after) the VCA. Therefore, if you require the Page Level to be controlled independent of the Program Level, set the switch for that Zone to "Post. " This is the desired setting for emergency paging. If a unit is located far from the CP 64S or is of a type that might create grounding problems, isolation transformers should be used. When operating cross-coupled line drivers unbalanced (i. e. , any CP 64S Output), it is essential to ground the (­) pin. The same guidelines given above for unbalanced operation apply to these Inputs. See the RaneNote Sound System Interconnection (included in this booklet) to answer any uncertainties, especially when using unbalanced sources. REMOTE INSTALLATION The CP 64S supports wired remotes for Page Assign, Zone Level and Zone Source selection. A brief list of suitable wire types is provided in the WIRE TYPES section on the next page. The PR 2 remote provides Page Zone Assign for Page 1 and Page 2 inputs and is usually located at the Page source. If your application requires one of the two PAGE ASSIGN switches to control both Page 1 and Page 2 Assign, simply wire all Page 1 and Page 2 ports in parallel. You may leave the knob off the unused control and cover it with one of the hole plugs provided in the kit. If your installation requires Page 1 and Page 2 remote control at two different locations, only three wires are required for each PR 2 remote (Z1, Z2 & GND). As above, you may leave the knob off the unused control and cover it with a hole plug. The ZR 1 remote provides Zone Level and Source Selection, allowing local control from inside the Zone. [. . . ] at factory (internal adjust 2 to 20 sec. ) As required (Zone/Program/Page) CW, +20 dBu Max L1 (if your input is on L1).

Verify Zone Level controls are set to Maximum and that you have an active source for each of the Program Inputs you intend to use. Select each Program Input and adjust its Input Level control to be the very loudest you would ever desire. [. . . ]
