Introduction

T

This section describes briefly the functionality of the M1amplifier.

he M1 Multimedia Amplifier is developed as a “all in one”, flexible solution for multi­purpose use.

During the development of the M1, the AUDAC-engineers wanted to achieve four goals:

- Delivering a flexible audio solution for multi purposes.

- Easy to use

- Excellent sound quality

- An advanced digital control interface

Where other multi-zone amplifiers aren’t ‘all in one’ devices, the M1 is a truly polyvalent solution.
It has the flexibility of an advanced multi-zone mixer, combined with several digital options. By
simply surfing to the webpage, you can get full control of the M1 basic functions. The M1 can be
directly plugged into a basic Ethernet LAN network. No extra control software is needed, just a
computer (pda, pocket pc, …) and a web browser with the Macromedia Flash Player 6.0 (or
higher) plug-in installed, will do the job.

The M1 can be used in commercial applications such as restaurants, clubs, bars, theatres, hotels,
conference facilities, houses of worship, professional offices, …

As a simple example, when installed in a restaurant, the M1 can provide popular music in the bar,
cocktail music in the lounge, jazz in the waiting area, and classical music in the dining room.

Six microphones can be plugged in (XLR) with individual zone paging or mixing zone paging.
Each room can have a digital wall mounted control panel for selecting a music source, and setting
the volume.

There are two versions of the M1

- M1: with 2 x stereo 150W /4Ohm Amplifier (Only for Zone 1 and Zone 2 !)

- M1-Light: Without built in Amplifiers

RS232 (serial connection interface)

The serial data protocol and wiring can be downloaded at www.audac.be/download or can be
asked at [e-mail].

ATTENTION

The Cat5 cabling must always be ‘straight’. In case of self made
cabling, it must be done as described above, to make the system
work properly.
