Overview
1.0 OVERVIEW
1.1 INTRODUCTION
This unit is a very versatile cost effective public address/background music control system which provides audio to up to 16 zones. Background music which can be selected to play through any zone is muted when general paging occurs or when an evacuation input overrides the system.
Operation is as follows:
Background music is piped to any zone which has been selected to have background music via switches on the front of the A 4585.
General Paging (via optional A 4586 paging station) will mute the background music to the zone paged or all zones depending on the setup configuration. The paging audio will then feed to the selected zones.
A 4575 RJ45 Input mutes background music to all zones. This is a vox enabled input which can be adjusted via a vox sensitivity control. The audio from the A 4575 will then feed to all zones.
Evac Input mutes background music to all zones. This input has the same priority as the A 4575 RJ45 input. This input is a vox enabled dual RCA input adjusted via a vox sensitivity control. The audio from the Evac input will then feed to all zones.

2.0 SETUP
2.1 Setup Guide
The A 4585 is a 16 zone paging system which switches 100V speaker levels or balanced low level (line levels) signals.
Background music which can be piped to any zone is muted when paging is initiated by the A 4586 paging consoles or when the Evac input is triggered.
WARNING : For correct operation the dip switches 1 & 2 need to be set before using the unit.
If the A 4585 is being used in single amplifier mode (see section 2.2.1) dip switch 1 must be set to “ON” otherwise if the unit is being used in two amplifer mode (see section 2.2.2) then dip switch 1 must be set to “OFF”
When using the unit for 100V speaker switching Dip switch 2 must be set to “OFF”.
If line level switching is required then Dip Switch 2 must be set to “ON”.
Failure to set the dip switches correctly might result in the unit malfunctioning. www.altronics.com.au

Setup Guide
2.2 SWITCHING 100V SPEAKER LEVELS
There are two different configurations for switching 100V speaker levels. The first uses a single amp system which is used for both Background music and PA paging. This setup mutes background music to “ALL” zones when any zone is paged.
(see section 2.2.1)
The second setup involves a two amplifier system where both the background music and the PA paging has its own dedicated amplifier. This setup mutes background music to only those zones which are being paged. (See section 2.2.2)
2.2.1 SINGLE AMPLIFIER 100V LINE SWITCHING
A single amp system uses one amplifier which is used for both the background music and the PA paging. In this configuration when any zone or zones is paged the background music will be muted to all zones. (Note: If muting is desired for only those zones being paged a two amplifier setup is required (See section 2.2.2)).
NOTE : Before turning the unit on make sure the dip switches are set correctly.
For single amp switching of 100V speaker levels, Dip switch 1 should be set to “ON”
and dip switch 2 should be set to “OFF” (see Dip switch settings Fig 1.6)
Each zone requiring background music must be switched “ON” from the “Zone Background Music Selector” switches on the front of the A 4585. (refer to section 1.4)
A background music source such as a CD player is connected to the BGM input (RCA connectors) on the rear of the
A 4585.
The amplifier audio connection is from the “PA Out” RCA sockets on the rear of the A 4585. This is a line level signal and must be connected to a Line/Aux input on the amplifier.
The amplifier 100V output must be connected to the “From PA AMP” terminals on the rear of the A 4585.
The zone 100V speakers are wired to the “+” and “-” terminals only on the rear of the A 4585 as shown in Fig 2.2A.
(Note: the earth connection is not used for 100V switching system. This terminal is used when switching line level signals.)

2.3 SWITCHING LINE LEVELS
The A 4585 can also be used to switch line level signals. Amplifiers are not connected to the PA OUT or BGM OUT of the
A 4585. Instead each zone has its own dedicated amplifer which can then feed multiple areas. Background music and the evacuation tones are still supplied by the A 4585 and are fed into each zone amplifier. Each zone amplifier can still have its own local microphone or background music.
NOTE : Before turning the unit on make sure the dip switches are set correctly.
Dip switch 2 should be set to “ON” (see Dip switch settings Fig 1.6)
Dip switch 1 will be disabled if dip switch 2 is set to “ON”
This setup mutes the background music (supplied by the A 4585) to only those zones which are being paged.
Each zone requiring background music must be switched “ON” from the “Zone Background Music Selector” switches on the front of the A 4585. (refer to section 1.4)
A background music source such as a CD player is connected to the BGM input (RCA connectors) on the rear of the
A 4585.
The zone output terminals on the rear of the A 4585 are connected to the zone amplifier inputs. The “+”,”-” and earth terminals are all used. Each zone output is a low impedance signal suitable for feeding directly into a power amplifier. As the signal is balanced the amplifier can be remotely located when connected using 2 core shielded cable. This enables the amplifier to be located up to 100m from the A 4585 switch box.

2.4 EVAC INPUTS
There are two forms of evacuation inputs available on the A 4585.
A 4575 RJ45 Input
The first is made via an RJ45 connection on the back of the unit which feeds directly from the A 4575 Alert/Evacuation controller (see Fig 2.4a). A CAT5e cable connected between the two units pipes in the evac audio from the A 4575. The trigger level is adjusted via the evac vox sensitivity control of the back of the A 4585. Once the evac input is triggered, background music will be muted to all zones. Paging from an A 4586 paging console will over-ride the evac input.
When the evac input is active the “Evac active” led on the front of the unit will illuminate.

Paging from an A 4586 paging console will over-ride the evac input. When the evac input is active the “Evac active” led on the front of the unit will illuminate.
Note: This could also be used for ALL CALL telephone paging when used with a suitable Line Isolation Unit.

Paging Console
3.0 PAGING CONSOLES
3.1 A 4586 OVERVIEW
The A 4586 paging console provides up to 16 zones of paging to the A 4585 audio switcher.
The consoles can be used for multi zone paging with the facility to store and recall multiple zones to a single button. The recall functions can also be labelled via a USB - PS2 compatible keyboard which can be plugged into the rear of the unit.
(see section 3.1.7) The labels will then be displayed on the highly functional and attractive LCD. An example might be a label “sales”.
An emergency paging over-ride facility is accessed by a combination of an illuminated push button switch and a PTT (push to talk) switch. This combination removes the possibliity of accidentally activating the emergency over-ride facility. When activated, emergency paging will be forced through to all zones.
A maximum of 8 paging consoles can be connected to the A 4585 at the same time. These work in a “first in, best dressed” arrangement. The consoles can be cascaded together or wired back to the A 4585 (see section 3.1.3 to 3.1.5 for details).
Each unit must be assigned an ID number through DIP switch settings on the rear of the unit.
A pre-announcement chime is available at the paging console and through the PA system. Both of these are set by DIP switches on the rear of the unit.

3.1.3 Connecting the paging consoles
The consoles are connected to the A 4585 via standard Cat5e cabling as shown in Fig 3.1b. The maximum distance between the A 4585 and a paging console is 300m. Note that each paging console must be assigned an ID number via the DIP switches on the rear of the unit before operation (see 3.1.2 DIP switch settings). Eg Console 1 is set to ID1, console
2 is set to ID2 etc
A maximum of eight consoles can be connected at one time but only used in certain configurations. There are four RJ45 ports on the back of the A 4585 which can be used to connect the A 4586 paging consoles. Each port can accomodate a maximum of 1 paging console without the aid of external power supplies.
Fig 3.1B shows how to connect one paging console per RJ45 port.

3.1.5 Multi-zone paging
Paging is achieved by pressing the numbered button of the zone required. The button will illuminate. Hold down the page switch and speak into the microphone. Note: a zone with a fast flashing LED has general paging blocked. To page to multiple zones, press the buttons for the desired zones. Multiple buttons will illuminate. Hold down the page switch and speak into the microphone.
3.1.6 Zone Lockout
General paging can be blocked to any zones via the paging console. To block paging to a zone from the A 4586, hold down the desired zone button until a message on the LCD indicates the zone is blocked out. Release the button to resume. To unlock the zone, repeat the procedure. NOTE: This will only lock out zones for use from the console that the zones were locked out from. It will not lock out the same zones from other paging consoles.
16 Redback® Proudly Made In Australia www.altronics.com.au
Paging Console
3.1.7 Store & recall groups of zones
Two function keys labelled store and recall may be used to program groups of zones into a single number recall, just as your telephone might have a “quick dial” memory function.
To store a group of zones
First press the store button on the paging console. Then select the zones you wish to group together. Once the desired zones are selected, press store again. You can now assign a group number using the numbered buttons (1 to 8). If you have previously stored a group of zones in the memory, these buttons will illuminate. Press store to complete the process.
Note that you may select one of the previously stored group numbers, however this will overwrite the existing stored zone selections.
The screen will now prompt you to label your stored group of zones. This allows quick visual feedback to the user when selecting groups of zones, examples of labels might include: All W/house, Bar&Lobby, Sales&Yard etc. Plug in a standard
USB PS2 compatible keyboard (Altronics D 2111) into the rear of the A 4586 paging console and type in your desired label. The maximum label length is 10 characters. Press backspace to delete letters. Hold down the shift key for capital letters. Press return (enter) when finished.
If a zone label is not required, press cancel to complete the process of storing a group of zones.
Note: if the keyboard is not operational, it may need to be unplugged and connected again.
To recall zones
Press the recall button. Any buttons which are programmed with groups of zones will illuminate. If any of these groups were given a label then these will show on the LCD.
Select one of the illuminated buttons to recall. The zones stored in this group will then illuminate automatically.
Hold down the page (PTT) switch and speak into the microphone. Press cancel when finished or the unit will time out automatically after ˜15 seconds.
3.1.8 Paging Console Busy
If the system has more than two A 4586 paging consoles connected there will be times when both units may be needed at the same time. If one of the paging consoles is in use the second console will be notified and the busy LED will illuminate and the LCD will display the image shown below.
