- Telephone Line Input: Connect a 600 ohm telephone line to the dedicated input. This input has its own level control for adjusting the volume of telephone audio.
4.2 Output Connections
- Mutauri Mhedzisiro: Connect your speakers to the appropriate output terminals on the rear panel. The amplifier supports 4, 8, and 16 ohm speaker loads. Ensure the impedance of your speakers matches the selected output terminals.
- Constant Voltage Outputs: For distributed audio systems, connect speakers to the 70 volt or 25 volt line outputs as required. Ensure all speakers in a constant voltage system are compatible with the chosen voltage.
- Music on Hold Output: Connect your music on hold system to this output. It provides both a 600 ohm line output and a one watt 8 ohm output, each with separate level control.
4.3 Simba Connection
Once all audio connections are made, connect the amplifier's power cord to a suitable AC power outlet. Ensure the power switch on the front panel is in the OFF position before plugging in.
5. Operating Instructions
This section details the functions of the front panel controls and key features of the PBM-30 amplifier.
5.1 Front Panel Controls
- SIMBA Switch: This is the main power switch for the amplifier. Press to turn the unit ON or OFF. The indicator light will illuminate when the unit is powered on.
- MIC 1 Control: Adjusts the volume level for the microphone connected to Input 1.
- MIC 2/AUX Control: Adjusts the volume level for the microphone connected to Input 2 or the auxiliary audio source.
- BASS Kudzora: Adjusts the low-frequency (bass) response of the audio output. Turn clockwise to increase bass, counter-clockwise to decrease.
- TREBLE Control: Adjusts the high-frequency (treble) response of the audio output. Turn clockwise to increase treble, counter-clockwise to decrease.
5.2 Auto Mute Function
The auto-mute function automatically mutes background music or other audio when a signal is detected on a priority input (e.g., a microphone input for announcements). This ensures that announcements are clear and audible without interference from other audio sources. The sensitivity and priority of the auto-mute function may be configured via internal jumpers or rear panel controls, if available (refer to detailed wiring diagrams for specific setup).
5.3 Manual Muting Contacts
The amplifier includes manual muting contacts, allowing for external control of the muting function. These contacts can be wired to an external switch or control system to manually mute audio output when activated. Consult the wiring diagram in the full technical manual for proper connection of these contacts.
5.4 Music on Hold (MOH) Output
The dedicated Music on Hold output allows you to feed background music to a telephone system's MOH input. Use the separate level control to adjust the volume of the music being sent to the telephone system.
