DESCRIPTION
FRONT PANEL
-Vol 1 - 3: Adjust the volume of input from the XLR Mic inputs.
-Clip 1 - 3: Lights when the Mic Inputs signal reaches 3 dB below clipping.
-Tone 1 - 3: Adjusts the relative frequency content of the Mic signals. When turned counter- clockwise, the treble content is cut (3 dB down at 4 kHz). When turned clockwise, the bass content is cut (3 dB down at 300 Hz).
-Source 5: Stereo 1/8” (3.5mm) input jack.
-Source Select: Selects which source input signal is sent to the outputs. NOTE: Source number
3 is the signal sent to the Music On Hold output.
-Bass: Adjusts the low frequencies of the source inputs
-Treble: Adjusts the high frequencies of the source inputs
-Level: Adjusts the overall level from the main outputs.
-Pwr: Indicates that power has been applied to the RM70, and the unit is on.
REAR PANEL
-Mic 1 - 3: XLR inputs for dynamic or condenser microphones, or balanced
-Mic/Line switches: When pressed in - pads the XLR inputs by 35 dB.
-Mic/Loop Insert: 1/4” TRS insert jack
-DIP Switches: Described below from left to right:
•M/S; Mono/Stereo switch. When the switch is up, the unit is operating in Stereo mode and when down in Mono mode.
•T; Talkover. When the switch is down, Mic 1 is in talkover mode. When a signal is present at Mic 1, the sources are muted. The attack time is 10ms, and the release time is 1 second. The signals from the other Mic inputs are not muted.
•PHAN 3,2,1; Phantom power for the XLR inputs. When the indicated switch is down, 12 volts of phantom power is applied to that Mic input
-Source 1 - 4: RCA inputs for connection to stereo sources such as cassette players, CD play- ers, etc.
-Source Input 3 is the input for the Music On Hold.
-Music On Hold Level: Adjusts the level of signal from the Music On Hold output terminals.
-Remote Volume Control: Screw terminals which connect to a 100K Ohm linear tapered poten- tiometer for controlling the main output level at a remote location.
-Music On Hold Output: Screw terminals for connection to a phone system for the music on hold function.
-Left and Right Main Outputs: 1/4” TRS balanced main outputs containing all Mic and selected source signals.
CONNECTION / OPERATION
Connect Microphone signals or balanced
Connect source signals (CD players, MP3 players, tuners, etc.) to the Source Inputs 1 - 5.
DIP SWITCH SETTINGS
To apply the 12 volts of phantom power to the individual microphones, move the corre-
sponding PHAN switch DOWN. | S |

The Music On Hold output and level control are designed to send the signal from Source 3 to a telephone
Remote Volume Control
To control the overall volume of the RM70 in a remote location, wire a 100K ohm Linear Taper potentiometer to the Remote Volume Control screw terminals as shown in Figure 1.
Mic Insert
To connect a signal processor to the RM70 microphone signal(s), use an insert plug, or cable wired as shown in Figure 2.
Connect the Main Outputs, Right and Left to the distribution system or amplifiers.
Once all connections are made, including proper connection to a grounded AC outlet, adjust the levels of Mic 1 through Mic 3 and their Tone controls for the desired amounts of signal and processing. Select which Source Input you would like sent to the Main Outputs, and adjust the Bass, Treble and Level controls for their desired amounts.
