6.5 Zone paging microphone
PA-4000RC
For announcements with a PA-4000RC:
1) Prior to the first announcement, turn the vol-
ume control AUDIO LEVEL (44) on the rear
side of the zone paging microphone approx .
to mid-position .
2) Use the buttons beneath Z1 to Z4 (41) to pre-
select the PA zones in which the announce-
ment is to be heard . For the zones selected,
the LED BUSY next to the respective button
will light up .
To deselect a zone, press the respective
button again so that the LED BUSY will go
out . To select or deselect all zones, press the
button ALL CALL (42) .
When an announcement via a different
zone paging microphone is being made, the
LEDs BUSY of the respective PA zones will
flash . It is not possible to make announce-
ments via multiple zone paging microphones
at the same time (even if different zones are
to be addressed) .
When the current announcement is
being made via a zone paging microphone
of the same or higher priority, you must wait
for the announcement to finish . Only a mi-
crophone of higher priority can interrupt the
announcement ( ☞ chapter 6 .5 .2 for priority
setting) .
3) Keep the button TALK (43) on the micro-
phone pressed and speak into the micro-
phone cartridge (40) . The LED indicator above
the button will light up; the input signals of
lower priority at the mixer will automatically
be muted ( ☞ table fig . 5 in chapter 3) .
4) If required, use the control AUDIO LEVEL (44)
to readjust the volume of the announcement .
The volume controls for the outputs (9) will
have no effect here .

the supply voltage is available and will start
flashing in case of a malfunction of the
microprocessor in the PA-4000RC
MIC FAULT/ LOW VOLTAGE (35) – will light
up in case of a microphone failure and will
start flashing when the supply voltage is
too low; an additional power supply unit
may be used when the supply voltage is
too low ( ☞ chapter 5 .5 .2, step 3)
SIGNAL (36) – will light up when a micro-
phone signal is available
EMER . (41) – (one for each PA zone)
are without any function when the PA-

will take priority over the other units where
this function has not been activated and
will interrupt their announcements
COMPRESSION – in the position ON, the
dynamics of the microphone signal will be
attenuated in order to reduce distortions
when announcements are made in a loud
voice
