IMPORTANT INFORMATION

It is important not to connect the ARM V2 microphone to an existing ARM-C controller or an
existing ARM microphone to an ARM-C MK2 controller. It will not work.

The ARM V2 microphones can only be connected with ARM-C MK2 controllers.

1. ARM-C Control Unit Overview

The ARM-C controller allows a DSP to instruct up to 4 ARM microphones to be
raised or lowered. Up to four units can be daisy chained (using the Link to DSP input
connection). Thus allowing a DSP using a single control line to raise/lower up to 16
ARM microphones.

 Supports 2 x RJ12 ports; one for DSP Input and one for Link which can be

used to connect to another ARM-C’s DSP Input. A single command from a
DSP will simultaneously activate all connected ARM motorised microphones.

 Supports 4 x RJ45 ports (M1 – M4) that allow for fast and easy connection of

4 x ARM motorized microphones. M1 and M2 on the front of the unit while M3
and M4 are on the rear of the unit.

 A positive (+2.5V to +12V) signal applied at the DSP Input port will

simultaneously activate all ARM motorised microphones connected to the
control unit’s M1 – M4 motor outlet ports.

 Logic input to the DSP Input port shall be on pin 2 (Live); pin 1 is Gnd.
 Removable Phoenix connector provides connection to an external 12V DC 2A

supply (ARM-PSU 1).

 LED power indicator.
 Flanges on the unit provide a simple screw fixing of ARM-C controller.

Warning: Under no circumstances must any equipment

other than ARM V2 microphones be connected
to any of the M1 – M4 sockets of the ARM-C
MK2 controller unit. Serious damage will occur
to equipment and/or controller unit which is not
covered under warranty.
