Notes regarding the ADVANCED adjustments for MIC1 and MIC2 inputs:
•
Contrary to the detailed LINE or MIC input adjustments, the ADVANCED MIC
input adjustments (TALKOVER and NOISE GATE functions) are unique and
individualised for each MIC input (MIC1, MIC2), but shared for the possible
destination zones, A and B, when working in ZONES mode. For example: a 20 dB
adjustment of the Talkover function threshold for the MIC1 input will be
considered the activation threshold of that function, regardless of whether the
MIC1 Talkover function is assigned to zone A, zone B or both. For this reason,
instead of indicating the affected zone as is displayed in other types of
adjustments (ZA or ZB), the top left corner of the LCD screen will display "- -"
during the adjustment process of said advanced parameters.
•
TALKOVER ASSIGN: When the Talkover function is assigned to an output from a
MIC input, the microphone signal will cause an attenuation of the active LINE
signal in that output zone (and also of the other microphone, unless that
microphone has an active Talkover function with higher priority) when the
microphone exceeds the Talkover or detection threshold. The possible
assignments are:
o
o
o
o
Note: In PAGER mode, the MIC1 input is silenced unless a call is being made from the MPAGE4
station (= zones selection + pressing the MPAGE4's PAGE button). Adjusting the output level of
the MPAGE4 unit with its internal potentiometers is also recommended to correctly couple the
unit to the CA200z (see the MPAGE4 console manual for more details)
o
•
TALKOVER PRIORITY: The Talkover function of the MIC1 and MIC2 inputs can
have the same or different priority levels. The effect of this hierarchy of priorities is
as follows:
o
18
ZONE A
ZONE B
ZONES A-B (both zones)
PAGER: real-time voice message function with zone selection, or
paging (zone A, B or both). Only available when using an MPAGE4
desktop console connected to the PAGER port on the CA200z's rear
panel. The console uses the MIC1 input for managing the PAGER
function and its internal jumpers must be in the 10 V / ALOG positions
(see the MPAGE4 console manual for more details). In the CA200z's
ZONES mode, the operative keys on the MPAGE4 unit will be the zone
1 and 2 (A and B on the CA200z) selection keys, whereas in STEREO,
MONO and BRIDGE modes, only the zone 1 selection key will be
operative.
OFF: MIC input's TALKOVER function disabled
MIC1 and MIC2 with the same Talkover priority (both 2 (LOW) or
both 1 (HIGH)): the first of the two microphones whose Talkover
actuates on a destination zone (its signal exceeds the detection
threshold) disables the Talkover of the other microphone in the same
zone until the Talkover of the first microphone stops actuating (its signal
drops below the activation threshold), at which time the Talkover
function can be activated again by the first microphone to exceed the
threshold
