1. IMPORTANT REMARK
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is
intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous
voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude
to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the
user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing)
instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.
WARNING (If applicable): The terminals marked with symbol of “ ”
may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock. The external wiring
connected to the terminals requires installation by an instructed person or the use of
ready-made leads or cords.
WARNING: To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose this equipment to rain or
moisture..
WARNING: An apparatus with Class I construction shall be connected to a mains
socket-outlet with a protective earthing connection.
2. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Read these instructions.
2. Keep these instructions
3. Heed all warnings
4. Follow all instructions
5. Do not use this apparatus near water
6. Clean only with dry cloth
7. Do not block any ventilation openings Install in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions
3
8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or
other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding type plug. A
polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type
plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade and the third
prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your
outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at the
plugs, convenience receptacles, and at the point where they exit from the
apparatus.
11. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
12. Unplug the apparatus during lightening sorts or when unused for long periods of
time.
13. Refer all servicing to qualified personnel. Servicing is required when the
apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power supply cord or plug is
damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the
apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or
has been dropped.
14. Disconnecting from mains: switching off the POWER switch all the functions
and light indicators of the amplifier will be stopped, but fully disconnecting the
device from mains is done unplugging the power cord from the mains input
socket. For this reason, it always shall remain readily operable.
15. Equipment is connected to a socket-outlet with earthing connection by means of
a power cord.
16. The marking information is located at the bottom of the apparatus.
17. The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and that no objects
filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on apparatus.
WARNING: This product must not be discarded, under any circumstance, as
unsorted urban waste. Take it to the nearest electrical and electronic waste
treatment centre.
NEEC AUDIO BARCELONA, S.L. accepts no liability for any damage that may be
caused to people, animal or objects due to failure to comply with the warnings above.

4. INTRODUCTION
PAGENETDN is a programmable Paging Station with dual audio output: Dante™
(digital) and analogue (balanced). This way, its control features and its microphone
signal can be used for paging together with any EclerNet digital matrix, no matter
whether it supports Dante or not: MIO4040DN, MIMO88, MIMO88SG and MIMO1212SG.
At the same time it shares the same control features as the WPNETTOUCH, and can be
programmed to control one or more networked EclerNet devices; it can even control a full
installation, a project combining a multitude of different EclerNet devices: MIMO4040DN,
MIMO88, MIMO88SG, MIMO1212SG digital matrices, NXA series digital audio managers,
DUO-NET PLAYER units, etc. It is fully programmable through the EclerNet Manager
application (*).
(*) Refer to the EclerNet Manager Application manual for more information. The
EclerNet Manager application is available for download at www.ecler.com.
It comes with a desktop console design, including a gooseneck microphone and a 10”
capacitive touch screen panel that can show and manage the User Control Panels for
paging and for the control of networked EclerNet devices, VEO video devices and thirdparty devices.

4.1. Main features
Digital touchscreen embedded control panel, including the same features as the
WPNETTOUCH device:
o 10.1” IPS display (1280 x 800 pixels)
o Capacitive & multitouch touch panel
PoE DC supply compatible
External power supply compatible: external & universal PSU included + multi-
plug AC set
Ethernet Base-Tx 10/100Mb interface
Flexo type gooseneck microphone included, XLR connector with safety flap (to
avoid microphone unwanted removal)
Audio transport using Dante™, 2 channels:
o Dante™ channel #1 used for microphone signal transmission
o Dante™ channel #2 used for AUX input signal transmission
Phantom Power available for the MIC input
MIC out, analogue balanced signal, that makes the PAGENETDN unit compatible
for paging in combination with devices that don’t support Dante™ in a native
way, as the MIMO88, MIMO88SG and MIMO1212SG
AUX input, stereo LINE, RCA connectors. The incoming signal is converted to
mono and sent to the network using Dante™ channel #2. It can be used to
connect an external audio source (like a media player) and inject its signal to the
network in Dante™ format
Paging features based on programmable UCP control panels
EclerNet control device, with the ability to execute EclerNet projects on its
internal engine, acting as a server and / or client of UCP panels

5. INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS
5.1. Installation and wiring
Before programming and using it, the PAGENETDN unit must be connected to the
network, by means of its internal RJ45 ETHERNET interface. This one, and the rest of
connectors, are available unscrewing the bottom metal plate of the unit (3 screws must
be removed).
PAGENET internal view, after removing the bottom metal plate
It must as well be supplied with DC Power, directly with PoE (Power over Ethernet),
when it is available from the Ethernet switch the unit is connected to, or by means of the
included external Power Supply, 12 VDC, 2A (EXTERNAL PSU CONNECTOR).
Additionally, there are 2 extra audio connectors available:
AUX IN (L / R): stereo LINE input, RCA connectors. The incoming signal is
converted to mono and sent to the network using Dante™ channel #2. This input
can be used to connect an external audio source (like a media player) and inject
it’s signal to the network in Dante™ format
MIC OUT (ANALOGUE AUDIO OUT): mono balanced signal (Euroblock). It’s a
copy of the microphone signal in analogue format, that enables to create paging
systems in combination with devices without Dante™ native support.

5.2. Audio Settings
PAGENETDN has several audio controls in its electronics that can be used to tailor the
incoming analogue audio signals:
PHANTOM POWER ON / OFF (default = ON): it enables or disables the Phantom
Power delivered to the microphone XLR connector, in case a condenser
microphone is used, like the unit that comes by default with the PAGENETDN
device (Ecler eMCN1 model)
HPF (High Pass Filter) ON /OFF (default = ON): it enables or disables the High
Pass Filter (100Hz @ 12dB/oct) applied to the audio signal captured from the
microphone capsule, to minimize low frequency and unwanted noise entering
into the voice messages path along the audio system
MIC IN GAIN (*): preamp gain adjustment for the incoming microphone signal. It
affects both the resulting Dante ch #1 output and the ANALOGUE AUDIO (MIC)
OUT signal
AUX IN GAIN (LINE GAIN): preamp gain adjustment for the incoming AUX IN ST
LINE signal, later converted to mono and to Dante ch #2
(*) Note: the microphone XLR connector admits standard XLR microphones to
be used, like the Ecler eMCN1 supplied with the unit, but it can’t hold those with
the base thicker than the standard XLR size:
