I. GENERAL.
1-1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1)
this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this
device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.
The Model AR2000-M (see figure 1-1) Audio
Router, is a UL listed and cUL certified central control
device that is capable of routing a selected audio input
to specific zones. It can control signals to speakers
designed for 25Vrms line operation or 70Vrms line
operation. It can also control 1Vrms signals intended to
be amplified with a separate amplification device. The
AR2000-M has a public address (PA) function so voice
messages or instructions can be announced over the
Audio Router system through an optional Model MSB-1
or MNC-1 Microphone. The unit can also be used to play
background music generated from an external source
over the Audio Router system.
Installation and Service Instructions
for
device. It is capable of handling two inputs from any of
three different selected source voltages of 1, 25 or 70 volts.
The unit has 8 selectable zones which either the A or the B
source is routed to. There is an all call button that selects
all zones. There are also 8 programmable presets on the
unit. The presets are initiated by the front panel buttons
or by remote contacts wired to the back panel. The front
panel also has a monitor speaker jack. A microphone jack
is also available for use with a MSB-1. The microphone has
priority over the two user supplied sources. The telephone
feature is protected by an 8 key password. Options
available allow changing the password and recording a
message for broadcasting. Commands entered via the
telephone key pad allow the user to send a message
to specified zones. The microphone and the telephone
interface have the same priority. If the microphone is in use,
the telephone interface is disabled. If the phone message
system is in use, the microphone is disabled.
by the user, a separate AR2000-Z (See Figure 1-2),
zone unit, or AR2000-P (See Figure 1-3), preset unit is
available. Each AR2000-Z or AR2000-P unit will add an
additional eight zone or preset controls respectively. Up to
seven additional Preset or Zone units may be added for a
total of 64 zones and 64 presets.

will fit any standard 19" rack mount cabinet. The Model
AR2000-M can be used for a variety of prioritized
signaling purposes, such as playing background music,
paging, start and dismissal, phone messaging and other
communication applications. Additional advantages of the
Model AR2000-M include economical system expansion
and long term system flexibility.
applies them through zone outputs to the devices in the
system. The AR2000-M connects easily with Selectone
amplified speakers. A Model AM25CK or AM70CK
Connector Kit is required in each Selectone device to
connect it to the signal line. The Audio Router device
supplies 15W at either 25Vrms or 70Vrms. An additional
amplifier must be supplied to obtain higher wattage
levels. Care must be taken to ensure that the total line
impedance of all the connected devices does not cause
the line voltage to drop.
