PAC-5600

| SUMMARY |

The PAC-5600 mixer amplifier is a digital multi-zone amplifier system, which offers up to 24 separate zone switching/

selection and BGM facilities. The PAC-5600 has 24 zone outputs separated into 2 groups of 12, which are each

powered by a 300 watt amplifier for a total of 600 watts of power. The PAC-5600 also includes an AM/FM tuner, a

media, and a CD Player. The mixer contains 6 microphone inputs on 3 pin XLR, a telephone paging input, and 2

auxiliary inputs on dual RCA sum-to-mono.

The Inter-M PAC-5600 is both mains and DC powered, and is also fully programmable and controllable by web-

enabled devices that include tablets and smart phones.

The PAC-5600 can be used in shopping centres, banquet halls, office buildings, retirement homes, and apartment

complexes.

| OVERVIEW |

The PAC-5600 is the latest generation combination all-in-one public address system, which was inspired by Inter-M’s

PAC-5000 design. With its dual 300 watt per channel of Class D amplifier, the PAC-5600 offers twice as much power

than its predecessor, the PAC-5000. New features include web browser control configuration, multiple source

playback with an internal MP3 player, multi-zone paging, emergency pre-recorded messaging, and a built in

speaker line checker.

| Space Saving Installation |

The PAC-5600 is an all-in-one system, which combines multiple input source devices including a microphone, a

line mixer, two amplifiers, and a speaker selector. Having these functions within a single device, cuts down on

labour costs in regards to installation.

| Simultaneous Dual Bus Broadcasting of Different Sources |

The dual bus permits two different sound sources to be broadcasted into each of the two buses. Group A (ZONE

1~12) can play one source, while Group B (ZONE 13~24) can play another. Each group, Group A or Group B can

broadcast the same or different sources.

| System Scalability |

The system can easily be expanded and sound sources can be shared across multiple PAC-5600. A total of Five

PAC-5600 (1 master and 4 slaves) can be connected together to form a 120-zone system. Connection is easy and

can be done using an RJ45 cable and linking the units though the LINK-IN/OUT terminal.

| Class D type Amplification |

Class D audio amplifiers offer greater power efficiency over traditional amplifiers. Among their advantages includes

their reduced physical size and lower heat dissipation. They offer less than 1% THD (Total Harmonic Distortion), with

an increased signal to noise ratio to 90 decibels, and a widened frequency response from 30 hertz ~ 20 kilohertz.

| Remote Paging Microphone |

Four or less RM-6024 remote microphones can be connected to one PAC-5600 a maximum distance of 500 metres.

| 24 Selectable Zone Paging and BGM |

The PAC-5600 system offers 24 separate zones of switching/speaker selection for zone paging and BGM. The total

zone can be expanded up to 120 channels by linking two PAC-5600.

| Scheduled Broadcast |

Scheduled broadcasts of pre-recorded messages or sound files are possible with the PAC-5600. This feature is

configured using the built-in web-browser interface via PC or web-enabled device.

| Fire Detection and Emergency Broadcasting |

The system provides 24 channel sensor input terminals for automatic fire alarm broadcasting. It also provides the

ability to record a fire alarm message for fire alarm broadcasting. The program source can be changed during

emergency broadcasting. It is possible to continue regular broadcasting of one source, on one group, while sending

an emergency broadcast of a different source, or emergency message/signalling, on the other group.

| Speaker Line Check Function |

The speaker line check function enables the verification of the line status. This may include open or short circuits,

where the line impedance changes within 20% from pre-set value.

| Mixing of External Sources |

An integrated mixer with five microphones or line level channels on XLR-F connectors, allow the mixing of external

audio devices. All five inputs can provide phantom power to condenser microphones.

| External Equipment Control |

An external contact trigger combined with the EM inputs can be used to control eternal devices. External devices

can trigger messages to be broadcasted in a zone using the 24 EM inputs.

| Emergency Power and Battery Charging |

The simultaneous dual redundant AC and DC power operation, offers uninterrupted operation in the event of an AC

mains power outage. If the main AC power fails, the PAC-5600 automatically switches to the DV24V battery backup,

where a built-in battery charger ensures that the battery is always charged and ready to use.

| PC Program Broadcast |

This function is part of the PC control software. It allows a sound file stored with in the PC to be broadcasted by the

PAC-5600 to a specific output zone. This is a timed event function.

| MIC Priority Broadcasting |

PAC-5600

Input priority is pre-set from channel 1 to channel 6, with channel 1 having the highest priority and channel 6 having

the lowest priority.

| Built-in Monitor Speaker |

A built in speaker allows monitoring of the two audio busses, which verifies the system.the lowest priority.

| EM (Emergency) Microphone |

A front panel installed microphone can easily be used to make an emergency voice broadcast.

| EQ Mode |

An equaliser allows the user to set the desired tone of all input sources, including BGM. A seven band graphic

equalizer is available for each zone output.
