User Guide AP6506 issue 1

The
PL-12
is an ‘intelligent’ remote controller for use with the Allen & Heath
GR2
audio zone mixer. It provides the non-technical operator with local control
of the music source selection and/or audio level. Up to two controllers may be
connected, just one, one for each zone, or a single unit to simultaneously
control both zones. A menu of setup options allows the installer to configure
its function to match the specific requirements of each application. Additional
switches may be wired for room combining situations and to disable the
controller when the settings should not be changed. The optional
PL-5
hand
held infra-red remote controller adds wireless control, and additional features
including the store and recall of up to 4 source/level presets. The
PL-12
can
be mounted into a single unit wall box using the standard face plate provided,
or furniture mounted using the cutting template details given here. It interfaces
with the
GR2
using standard CAT5 cables. The second controller daisy chains
with the first for convenient single run cabling. Space is provided on the panel
for custom labelling.
