Instructions
®
Biamp Systems, 10074 S. W. [. . . ] With the sound system turned off, route cables through the front cover access holes and make the proper signal and contactclosure connections to the EPI (see diagram below). The Program Input, the Page Input, and the Output are all unbalanced line-level connections, wired with high to (+) and ground to (gnd). This can be the output from a microphone mixer or a music source (CD, cassette, etc. ). This can be the output from a microphone preamp, a telephone system, or a distributed speaker line. Transformer isolation may be required for proper interface to telephone or distributed speaker systems. The EPI Output goes to the input of the sound system equalizer or amplifier. When used with the Advantage IWA or RPM Series powered mixers, insert the EPI at the mixer Main (or Zone) patch point. Connect the mixer Main/Zone Out terminal to the EPI Program Input (+), and connect the EPI Output (+) to the mixer EQ In terminal. [. . . ] Program Return Time has a range of 0. 8~5. 0 seconds, and is factory set for 0. 8 seconds (minimum).
