IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

The symbols shown above are internationally accepted symbols that warn of potential hazards with electrical products. The lightning flash with arrowpoint in an equilateral triangle means that there are dangerous voltages present within the unit. The exclamation point in an equilateral triangle indicates that it is necessary for the user to refer to the owner’s manual.

These symbols warn that there are no user serviceable parts inside the unit. Do not open the unit. Do not attempt to service the unit yourself. Refer all servicing to qualified personnel. Opening the chassis for any reason will void the manufacturer’s warranty. Do not get the unit wet. If liquid is spilled on the unit, shut it off immediately and take it to a dealer for service. Disconnect the unit during storms to prevent damage.

2. On the front panel of the mixer, switch the POWER switch to the on position.

3. Connect a stereo audio source to the SOURCE 1 input. Do not put any audio through the mixer at this time.

4. Turn the SOURCE 1 GAIN knob, on the rear panel of the unit, all the way counter-clockwise.

5. Turn the ZONE 1 LEVEL knob, on the front panel, all the way counter-clockwise.

6. On the front panel, select source 1 with the ZONE 1 SELECT knob.

7. Connect the ZONE 1 output to your power ampliﬁer. Make sure the ampliﬁer you are connecting to is not powered up while making this connection, this will prevent any nasty pops.

8. Turn on your power ampliﬁer.

9. Turn on your audio source.

10. Slowly turn up the SOURCE 1 GAIN knob, on the rear panel, until the SIGNAL LED consistently lights green.

1.0 Introduction

1.1 JBL Commercial CSM-21 and CSM-32 Mixer

The JBL Commercial® CSM-21 and CSM-32 mixers (hereafter referred to as ‘mixer’) were speciﬁcally designed to provide signal routing ﬂexibility and multiple audio source control. To facilitate this, JBL has equipped the mixers with a wide array of input and output capabilities.

These features allow you to bring the same audio quality – that many of your patrons are used to hearing at home – into your place of business. The CSM mixers have been designed to make them easier to operate than any other product in their class. In reality, the feature set provided by the CSM mixers puts them in a class all by themselves.

CSM-32 mixers provide 3 stereo source inputs and 2 full range stereo zone outputs (with dedicated subwoofer outputs), and are equipped with functional I/O that provide connections for your microphones, ﬁre alarm system, auxiliary devices, and CSR remote controls. CSM-21 mixers provide 2 stereo source inputs, 1 full range stereo zone output (with dedicated subwoofer output), and are equipped with I/O that provide connections for your microphones, ﬁre alarm system, and CSR remote controls. For further information on the CSM’s connections and controls, please refer to later chapters in this guide.

JBL’s AutoWarmth™ and LevelGuard™ controls give you superb, easy to use equalization and dynamics control. This function allows the signal to be tailored for a wide variety of rooms, taste, and volume requirements.

1.2 Other Mixer Features

The mixers also feature linking capabilities. This is accomplished by connecting standard Cat 5 UTP cables to the mixer’s LINK ports.

The linking of multiple mixers provides additional output zones, allowing you to expand the systems output capabilities. Please note that linking mixers does not increase the number of inputs. SOURCE linking allows multiple mixers to share the same input source, eliminating the need for Y-cables. MAIN linking allows multiple mixers to share MIC input, MUSIC MUTE, and DIRECT INPUT functions. When multiple units are linked, there is no master or slave designation. The functions are simply paralleled so that sources, MIC input, MUSIC MUTE, and DIRECT INPUT can be fed to any of the linked mixers.

JBL offers several optional remote controls: CSR-V, CSR-2SV, and CSR-3SV. These remote controls provide remote source selection and/or volume adjustments from within a zone location.

2.0 Installation

Method 1 - Attaching the brackets to the front panel for rack mounting

Method 2 - Attaching the brackets to the sides of the unit for wall mounting

2.1 Unpacking

This product was carefully inspected before packing to ensure ﬂawless appearance and operation.

Please unpack and inspect your CSM mixer for any damage that may have occurred during transit. If damage is found, notify the transportation company immediately. Only you can initiate a claim for shipping damage. We will be happy to help as needed. Save the shipping carton as evidence of damage for the shipper’s inspection.

We also recommend that you save all packing materials so you will have them if you ever need to transport the unit.

2.2 Mechanical Requirements

We recommend leaving sufﬁcient space around the sides, top, and rear of the mixer to ensure proper ventilation. Forced cooling is not required. The mixer requires a vertical rack space of 1U. Failure to do so may damage the mixer and invalidate the warranty.

2.3 Installing the Mixer

CAUTION: Before you begin, make sure that your mixer is disconnected from the power source and all

level controls are turned completely down (counter-clockwise).

To install the mixer, you can use one of the following approaches:

• Install the mixer in a rack enclosure.

1. Using the original brackets that came with the mixer, align the bracket’s holes with the holes on the mixer’s chassis.

2. Fasten the bracket with the provided screws.

3. Follow steps 1 and 2 to install the remaining bracket(s) to the case, according to your application.

4. Install the mixer into the cabinet. For further details about rack installation, refer to your cabinet’s user guide.

• Install the mixer to the wall. See ‘Method 2’ in the above ﬁgure.

• Stack mixer and amps without using a cabinet.

NOTE: WHEN TRANSPORTING, THE MIXER SHOULD BE SUPPORTED AT BOTH THE FRONT AND BACK.
