General overview
The DPM 8016 is the modular, network-capable central unit of the PROMATRIX 8000 system.
The system can be adjusted to system requirements via the 8 slots for audio input, audio
output or message manager modules. The DPM 8016 contains all necessary audio functions
and is responsible for controlling and monitoring the complete PROMATRIX 8000 system. The
type and number of connected audio sources, amplifiers, and relay cards are extremely
variable, and can be adjusted to individual requirements. A single DPM 8016 can manage up to
16 call stations and up to 500 zones; in larger systems, up to 10 DPM 8016 controllers can be
linked with each other via a digital audio and control bus. Control inputs and outputs can be

used for controlling and monitoring functions, and allow both the logic level and the analog
level to be processed and generated. Configuration is performed on a PC using the IRIS-Net
software, which also provides access to system documentation and the required user
interface. A configuration can be changed at any time, and adjusted to new circumstances
without having to modify the system installation. A PC is required only for loading or changing
the configuration; it does not need to be connected during live operation. In many cases,
however, a permanently connected PC is helpful; for example, to provide detailed status
displays and log reports, real-time loudspeaker and sound control, or for remote diagnosis and
maintenance via the network. The user interface can be individually tailored, and up to 32
password levels can be assigned.
Audio routing
A digital 36 x 16 audio matrix is integrated into the DPM 8016. Up to 16 local audio inputs, 4
internal generators, and 16 optional CobraNet network inputs are available. The 16 matrix
outputs can be used as local audio outputs, or optionally provided via the CobraNet network.
This means 16 audio channels can be used in parallel, and connected to the amplifiers. Each
loudspeaker circuit can be connected with amplifier outputs via a relay matrix, which allows
for 500 loudspeaker zones. The DPM 8016 manages the audio signals, and distributes them
according to priority. In addition to the call stations, other audio sources can also be
connected to the audio inputs such as microphones, mixing desks, CD players, MP3 players,
tuners, and so on. A number of different connections are available for optimum adjustment.
Audio processing
The DPM 8016 provides separate volume controls with a mute function for each audio input
and audio output. Each audio input has a 3-band equalizer and a compressor for optimal
sound adjustment of the audio sources. All outputs are fitted with a 5-band equalizer and a
limiter. For the equalizers, the operator can select from six different filter types for each band
filter (peak, low-shelving, high-shelving, high pass, low pass, all pass). Volume levels, filter
parameters, and so on are set on the PC during configuration. However, these can also be
changed in real-time during operation using the graphical user interface, the special keys for
the call stations, or external operating controls.
Signal generators
The DPM 8016 provides four signal generators: Two independent generators for generating
alarm signals and two independent generators for generating gong signals. Operators can
choose between 24 alarm types and six gong types that are available ex-works.
Call stations
The call stations of the DPC 8000 series are used mainly for announcements, but are also used
for manual control of the PROMATRIX 8000 system. Possible call station functions include
circuit/group selection, announcements, program allocation, triggering gong and alarm signals,
and voice mail playback. However, special commands such as volume control, monitor
selection, preset switching, light control, function displays, and much more are also possible.
The call stations can therefore also be configured for general control tasks. If an
announcement is to be routed through a loudspeaker circuit that is already occupied, the
system issues an occupied notification (i.e., the BUSY-LED flashes). If the call station
concerned has a higher priority, it can interrupt the lower-priority call from the other call
station/signals. The system naturally includes safeguards relating to this: The user is notified
that the system is occupied when selecting the circuit (before the interruption) by the flashing
BUSY-LED. The user can now decide whether to interrupt the signal immediately, or whether
to wait until the end of the active announcement. Each zone selection key has two LEDs: A
DPM 8016
System description | en 9
Operation manual 16-Dec-13 | 02 | F01U259190
green LED shows the current selection, and a yellow LED shows the current status of the zone
(occupied, free, alarm active). System information or error messages can be displayed on the
call station's illuminated graphic display.
Control inputs and outputs
The PROMATRIX 8000 system has analog and digital control inputs and outputs. The control
inputs allow a connection to be established to fire alarm systems, intruder alarm systems, or a
control desk. However, it is also possible to connect external switches, controllers, or rotary
encoders, or to retrieve output messages from external equipment (power supply, power
amplifiers, and so on). The control outputs allow the user to activate/deactivate external
devices, trigger signals and events, remotely control doors, gates, and roller blinds, generate
an analog level for media control, and much more.
Automatic control
The DPM 8016 contains a quartz-controlled real-time clock that can be switched to DCF77
radio clock operation via an optional antenna (radio receiver NRS 90193). The system clock
automatically recognizes leap years; in DCF77 mode, it also automatically switches to daylightsaving time. Up to 40 external slave clocks can be controlled by the system clock. A special
output for polarity switch impulses, which is protected against short circuits, is integrated in
the DPM 8016 for this purpose. Slave clocks are automatically adjusted if a time difference
between the slave clocks and the system clock is detected, for example after a power failure
or in the event of manual input. Together with the calendar function, the system clock can be
used to execute functions such as a break gong, music, gate control, light control, and so on.
These functions can be programmed for specific days, but can also be implemented on an
hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, and annual basis. Up to 500 time-controlled events can be
entered. Functions and parameters can be connected in an internal sequence. The TaskEngine
in the DPM 8016 provides a graphic display that allows the user to combine processes
individually. One example would be a gong signal to be transmitted at a certain volume and
with a specific priority in specific call groups, and which simultaneously activates a control
output. In this case, the process consists of the “gong” and “analog output” function blocks
combined with the parameters of gong type, volume, priority number, call group number, as
well as the type and number of the control output. The processes can be triggered via special
function keys on the call stations or via control inputs, but can also be linked to clock or
calendar dates.
Interfaces
In addition to the control inputs and outputs, the PROMATRIX 8000 system also includes other
interfaces. The call stations are connected to the DPM 8016 via the PCA bus (CAN bus
standard). Up to four call stations can be connected via one PCA bus. The power amplifiers
and the DCS 400 control system are controlled and monitored by the DPM 8016 via an
additional, independent CAN bus interface. The connection to a PC is established via an
Ethernet interface. The Ethernet interface is used to connect several DPM 8016 controllers.
The redundant, optional CobraNet interface is used to transmit audio data.
Security features
The DPM 8016 monitors all internal functions itself, and the connected call stations and power
amplifiers including their connection lines are also monitored by polling and pilot tone. When
using the DPA 8000 POWER AMPLIFIER, loudspeaker lines can be monitored by end-of-line
modules installed at the ends of the lines. The PROMATRIX 8000 system also supports
emergency power operation – in the event of a power failure, the DPM 8016 can assume all
power management functions, that is, all unnecessary internal and external consumers switch
to standby mode, or are deactivated and only reactivated again when required. This greatly

reduces power consumption, and ensures maximum operating time on battery power. Error
messages can be displayed on the call station displays in plain text. A potential-free contact is
used on the DPM 8016 for batch messages.
