12VDC Mute Trigger In

When 12VDC is applied to the Mute In, the system will fully mute all zones on the controller. The connections for the trigger are made using a two-conductor cable with 1/8" male mini-plug jacks. The tip is positive (+) and sleeve is negative (-). This allows for the connection of an external paging or muting device. In a dual controller configuration a mini plug Y cable should be used to send the signal into both Mute In jacks so all zones will be muted.

Note: The CA4 will not accept a paging audio input; however, if used with an independent paging system with 12VDC trigger out, that can be used to trigger the mute.

Sample Trigger Connections

12VDC System Trigger Out

Trigger Out 12VDC output is used for triggering an external amplifier or other component. The connections for the output are made using a two-conductor cable with 1/8" male mini-plug jacks at each end. The tip is positive (+) and sleeve is negative (-). The System Trigger Out supplies 12VDC when the first keypad is turned on. The 12VDC is removed 5 minutes after the last keypad is turned off.
