Features
- Gain/Trim control
- Bass and treble
- Audio Gating with threshold and duration adjustments
- Variable signal ducking when muted or gated
- Fade back from mute level
- 4 levels of available priority
- Can be muted from higher priority modules

Module Installation
- Turn off all power to the unit.
- Make all necessary jumper selections.
- Position module in front of desired module bay opening, making sure that the module is rightside up.
- Slide module on to card guide rails. Make sure that both the top and bottom guides are engaged.
- Push the module in to the bay until the faceplate contacts the unitʼs chassis.
- Use the two screws included to secure the module to the unit.
WARNING:
Turn off power to unit and make all jumper selections before installing module
in unit.
Jumper Selections
**Priority Level***
This module can respond to 4 different levels of priority. Priority 1 is the
highest priority. It mutes modules with lower priorities and is never muted.
Priority 2 can be muted by Priority 1 modules and mutes modules set for 3 or
4. Priority 3 is muted by either Priority 1 or 2 modules and mutes Priority 4
modules. Priority 4 modules are muted by all higher priority modules.
- The number of priority levels available is determined by the amplifier the modules are used in.
Gating
Gating (turning off) of the module’s output when insufficient audio is present
at the input can be disabled. Detection of audio for the purpose of muting
lower priority modules is always active regardless of this jumper setting.
Bus Assignment
This module can be set to operate so that the mono signal can be sent to the
main unitʼs A bus, B bus, or both buses.
Gate – Threshold (Thresh)
Controls the minimum necessary input signal level to turn on the moduleʼs
output and apply mute signal to the main unit’s buses. Clockwise rotation
increases the necessary signal level required to produce output and mute lower
priority modules.
Ducking (Duck)
Controls the level of the output signal from the module when it has been
requested to mute/gate itsʼ output. The range is adjustable from no reduction
in level to full muting of the output signal.
Gain
Provides control over the level of input signal that can be applied to the
internal signal buses of the main unit. Allows a way to balance the input
levels of various devices so that the main unit controls can be set to
relatively uniform or optimum levels.
Gate – Duration (Dur)
Controls the amount of time the output and mute signal of the module remains
applied to the main unitʼs buses after the input signal falls below the
required minimum signal level (set by the threshold control).
Bass & Treble (Treb & Bass)
Provides separate control of Bass and Treble cut and boost. The Bass control
affects frequencies below 100 Hz and Treble affects frequencies above 8 kHz.
Clockwise rotation provides boost; counterclockwise rotation provides cut.
Center position provides no affect.
Connections
Uses a standard RCA connector to make connections to the moduleʼs input. The
inputs are quasi-balanced to reduce the chance of ground loops while still
being compatible with unbalanced signal sources.
