Multi-zone, multi-priority installations simplified!

The new ProMatrix™ Digitally Matrixed Amplifier is the first of its kind to incorporate three independent amplifier channels with a unique digital interface, providing the ideal solution for restaurant, lounge/bar hotel, factory or similar facilities where multiple program and paging inputs need to be distributed to separate areas and automatically switched.

The PM3180 can accommodate up to 4 aux inputs and 2 mic inputs. Each input can be individually assigned to each amplifier channel. Each input on a particular channel can also be assigned a priority level. The amp channel will then automatically switch inputs based on input activity and priority level. Microphones can be assigned to priority level 1 or 2 and aux sources to levels 3, 4, 5, or 6. One of the mic inputs can be programmed for telephone paging applications.

The three amplifier channels are rated at 20, 60 and 100 watts. All channels have separate 4 and 8-ohm outputs as well as 25 and 70 volt taps. Preamp out/power amp in links are also included for each amp channel to facilitate the insertion of signal processing equipment. Adjustable input trim controls let you adjust differing audio source input levels.

• 3 Independent amplifier channels rated 20, 60 & 100 watts.
• 2 Lo-Z balanced Mic inputs and 4 Aux inputs.
• Provision for telephone paging.
• Flexible priority assignments for each input on each amplifier channel.
• Automatic switching of inputs based on input activity.
• Password protected programming mode.
• Wireless remote control.

The PM3180 includes a variety of useful features, including phantom power, automatic level control, choice of microphone precedence activation, variable mute, and automatic fade-in or audio source after a mic page or when switching to a lower priority. The amplifier's user mode lets personnel adjust the volume, bass and treble levels and manually select input sources. A program mode lets the installer program the ability to preset the power-up volume level of each input, preset treble and bass responses, and lock-out or inhibit volume, bass and treble controls.

All control functions are accomplished from the front control panel, which is itself removable for installation in a remote location away from the chassis. An infrared wireless remote control is also included and permits full control of all functions. Rack mount with kit RPK79.
