SOUND INSTALLATIONS, PARTICULARLY IF THEY ARE COMPLEX AND REQUIRE HIGH LEV-
ELS OF SAFETY AND FLEXIBILITY, MUST BE SUPPLEMENTED, INCREASINGLY FREQUENTLY,
BY SOPHISTICATED MANAGEMENT AND DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEMS FOR THE VARIOUS COM-
PONENTS AND CONTROL SYSTEMS FOR THE LINES, POWER SUPPLIES AND AMPLIFIERS.
THEY MUST FEATURE FLEXIBLE SELECTION OF THE INPUTS AND OUTPUTS AND FLEXIBLE
INTERFACING WITH EXTERNAL PERIPHERAL UNITS. THE PASO PMS2000 SYSTEM IS

T
The modular PMS 2000 system uses two types of card-cage:
a signal card-cage, in which up to a maximum of 10
modules can be housed, and a power card-cage, capable of containing from two to four amplifiers, depending on
their output power. The PMS2002-B card-cage will contain
the modules (input/output modules, zones selectors, line output, power supplies, tuners, etc.) that, thanks to the bus-type
configuration of the mother board, can be plugged in without having to follow a specific order. This is because an
essential and innovative feature of the PMS2000 system is the
presence of 3 signal buses, of which one for managing PA
signals with related zones addressing and two (A & B) for
managing two signals other than PA or one stereo signal (fig. 1.1).
This enables several independent systems to be set up within a single card-cage, in which they will in
any case be connected to a single control and power-supply line. One example of application could be that
of a theatre in which it would be possible, using a single system, to broadcast stereo music for the show and, at the same time,
to make voice calls to the single dressing-rooms. In case of need or in an emergency, it would be possible to suspend the music
to send general messages to all the rooms. The bus carries the power-supply lines, the audio signals, the serial communication
line and the service signals (priority, enabling, etc.). The only exception to the random nature of the positions of the modules
inside the rack concerns the PM2020-B and PM2020-V input modules, for which priority of the inputs on one card over those
on another is defined by the position of the card in question within the card-cage. The signal card-cage is mounted on sliding guides that enable it to be pulled out from the rack. Once the card-cage has been pulled out, the card-cage can be rotated for ease of installation and maintenance of the modules. The modules are plugged into the card-cage with no need for any
internal cabling. All the connectors used for the input and output connections, located on the rear, are of the professional type
and particularly functional (XLR inputs with locking levers, removable screw-down terminal with bayonet couplings, etc).
A PMS2000 system can include up to three PMS2002-B card-cages. Each card-cage can house up to 9 standard 38 mm wide
modules plus one PM2011-B power-supply module.
The PMS2001 power card-cage enables power amplifiers to be installed in a rack. Three models of amplifier are available, with outputs of 240 W (PMW240), 120 W (PMW 120) and 60 W (PMW60) respectively. A card-cage can contain up
to four 60 W or 120 W amplifiers or two 240 W amplifiers, since the latter take up twice as much room in front. Various combinations are possible, such as two 120 W amplifiers plus one 240 W amplifier.

1.2
A - PMS2000 SYSTEMS FOR SOUND-BROADCASTING ONLY
By combining the various functional modules and call stations at disposal, it is possible to “compose” systems for broadcasting
music and announcements, the functional characteristics of which may include:
• Up to 16 audio inputs with adjustable sensitivity for each channel for a system with only one signal card-cage
• Up to 48 audio signals for a system with 3 signal card-cages
• Up to 32 or 36 output zones, with override control
• Up to 32 levels of priority among the inputs
• Several independent audio systems in the same rack
• Integration with outside units (matrix units, message generators, PABXs, etc.)
• 230 VAC and/or 24 VDC power-supply
• 12, 24 or 32-zone call stations with star connections
• Programmable digital call stations on RS485 serial lines.
Use of analogue call stations is advisable in systems in which the financial aspect prevails, while digital keypads are used
in PA systems in which specific functions are required, such as control of the system directly from the call station (volume control, selection of radio stations, intercommunications between the call stations, etc.). When using digital microphone stands,
it is essential to use the SWPMB1.0 configuration system.

B - SOUND-BROADCASTING AND EVACUATION SYSTEMS (VES) WITH PMS2000
Configuration of the PMS2000 system for safety systems meeting IEC 60849 (CEI 100-55) standards requires use for the signal part of the range of VES modules bearing the suffix –V instead of the corresponding modules with the suffix –B, and for
power amplifiers of the PMW range a PM2092-V control card has to be added
to each of them
. Each loudspeaker line, also,
must be terminated on a PM2094-V line-control card.
Very briefly, it can be said that a safety sound-broadcasting system meeting the above standards must have the following
requisites:
• Control of the
critical
path, understood to mean the path of the audio signal starting from the capsule of the emergency microphone and/or from the message generator to the loudspeaker line, through the amplification chain: any failure along this path
has to be signalled in a suitable manner.
• Possibility of operating in case of mains failure for at least 30 minutes at the maximum output and for 24 hours in standby conditions. A secondary source of 24 VDC power with a battery-charging unit must therefore be provided. This source
must be sized so as to ensure independent operation as indicated above, depending on the absorption of the system. The
maximum operating time in a stand-by condition may be limited to 6 hours when, in addition to the batteries, an emergency generator is also available.
• Storage of alarm events in a non-volatile memory, including recording of the date/hours/minutes/seconds.
In addition to the functional features of a “conventional” broad-casting system, the VES system will also have the control and
alarm features summarised below:
• Digital control of the critical path, which includes:
- control of the emergency microphone capsule (M961-V)
and of the control microphone (PMB130-V)
- control of the connection between the alarm control unit
and the broadcasting system
- control of the warning-and-alarm message generator
- functional control of the VES modules
- functional control of the power amplifiers
- control of the loudspeaker lines (constant-voltage output
lines)
• Simultaneous broadcasting of the EVACUATION and ALERT
messages to different zones
• Logging of alarms (up to 100) in the non-volatile memory of
the CPU
• Software-programmable I/O functions, for managing failures and alarms (PM2093-V/-VL modules with 8 inputs and
8 outputs)
• Control of programming and management of the whole system via a PC connected to the RS232 serial line.
• Control via console (PMB130-V) equipped with a display,
buzzer, warning signal, mechanical key for manual intervention on the system, display of alarm status for each zone
(evacuation and/or alert).
• Management of stand-by amplifiers (PM2095)
• POWER LOW function lowering consumption by the amplifiers in the stand-by condition.
• Break in background music in case of mains failure, in order
to increase the operating time of the system.

The power-supply module takes care of supplying the power
needed to operate all the components of the system (with the
exception of the power amplifiers). It has electronic protection
against short-circuits and overloads. On the front panel, in
addition to the main ON/OFF switch, there are also three signalling lamps indicating the power-supply sources (AC/DC)
and the power supply status (ON/OFF). A connector is provided for adding further PMS2002-B (up to a maximum of 3)
card-cages to expand the connection, by means of the CV36
cable. The PM2011-V module is the version for use in VES
systems according to IEC 60849 standards and has a microcontroller that checks all the power supplies, both mains and
battery.

SYSTEMS
The PM2020-B module has two inputs to which audio sources
of various types can be connected. The module can be set to
take both microphone signals and high-level signals. Each
channel has a disconnectable phantom power supply, a direct
pre-amplified output, two-band tone control, an input for
enabling of internal priority / chime / gate and a circuit for
activating the external control channel. The output level and
tone controls are on the front panel. The level of priority in
respect of other input modules depends on the position of the
module within the card-cage. Each of the two inputs can be
equipped with a transformer with galvanic separation (TM80
or TM92) and an effective dynamics-limiting circuit (AC33),
which considerably improves playing out of voice messages if
there are strong variations in the level of the sound coming
from the microphone.
PM2020-B (-V)
PM2023-B
PM2020-B
Dual input module
The PM2020-V module is similar to the PM2020-B module, with the only difference that
input no. 1 is a dedicated input for connecting an M961-V emergency microphone in the
VOX mode with top priority over any signal.
The M961-V
emergency microphone
is controlled in accordance with IEC 60849 standards, and is an element of the critical path that is monitored continuously by the system’s
CPU (PM2021-V). This microphone should be installed, preferably, inside a special
soundproofed container in order to avoid generation of “improper” calls or false alarms.

The PM2021-B module contains the CPU for managing a
system for
sound-broadcasting alone
, together with the
SWPMB1.0 software. The module administers and co-ordinates the activities of the PMB131 and PMB136 digital consoles connected to the two RS485 serial outputs, and is able
to dialogue with a PC through a separate RS232 line.
Through a local serial line, it distributes the commands to the
PM2042-B relay cards and to the PM2060-B tuner, if any.
It is possible to connect up to 31+31 consoles to the two
output lines.
The software SWPMB1.0 enables the following parameters to
be programmed in the non-volatile memory:
• Microphone signal level
• Activation/de-activation of the Intercom function and output level of the monitoring loudspeaker (PMB136 only)
• Activation of the “treble boost” for stressing the treble frequencies
• Activation of the “low cut” filter if there are any horn-type loudspeaker units in the system
• Reading of the priority level of the call stations set locally
• Selection of the radio station (PMB136 only)
• Volume control of the radio station that is on the air
• Stations in a call status displayed with the selected zones.

The PM2021-V module contains the CPU for controlling a sound
-broadcasting and evacuation
system together with the
SWPMS1.0. software The module administers and co-ordinates the activities of the PMB131 and PMB136 digital consoles and
is able to manage the dialogue with the PC through a separate RS232 line. The commands sent to the PM2011-V, PM2020-V,
PM2042-V, PM2045-V, PM2061-V, PM29093-V cards and to the PM2060-B tuner, if any, lead out from this module. The software takes care of managing addressing of the evacuation and alert signals, of the emergency microphone and of programming of the input and output contacts associated with alarm signals or messages. Up to 87 amplifiers (with PM2092-V cards)
can be connected to the two RS485 serial outputs, while two more outputs are dedicated outputs for connecting up to a maximum of 31 call stations per system. A permanent or temporary link to a PC, through the RS232 serial line, will enable programming and the system status to be viewed, as well as the alarm logging. The alarms are stored in a non-volatile memory
(up to 100 events with their dates and times). Up to 16 different configurations are possible. They can be called up by means
of a single control. Permanent use of a PC is recommended in integrated safety systems for displaying the following:
• System configuration
• The number and status of the modules/amplifiers installed in the system
• The parameters referred to the loudspeaker lines
• The status reports of the broadcasting section: present zones - activated zones - enabled console
• Report of failure status: line impedance, amplifier status, end-of-line (EOL) control, critical path
• Fault logging (last 99 with date/hours/minutes), resettable with a password
• Remote-metering of the consoles
• Remote-metering of the amplifiers.

PM2022-B
This includes the audio signal mixing and control circuits (level
and tone) present on the various different buses: PA channel
(mono bus), channel A & B (left and right channels). Among
other things, it has an integrated warning signal generator, a
LED-type level indicator and three-band tone control. The bus
PA mixing output (mono) is electronically balanced, and it is
also possible to use a repeater coil for providing galvanic isolation of the line. Each PM2040-B module can share the signals present on the mixing buses with any other output modules installed (thus obtaining several identical output lines but
with separate level and tone controls), or it can isolate the
buses in order to put together several independent systems
inside a single card-cage.

This module enables one or two amplification lines (generally speaking one
music
line and one
announcement
line) to
be sent to more than one listening zone (up to 6). Microphone stations B500/12, /24 and /32 can be used to select
the zones. The zones are selected by means of dualexchange relays, one of which is used for the “override”
function (cancellation of the local attenuation levels of the
loudspeakers). When using a double amplification channel
(speech and music), it is possible to broadcast announcements to certain zones without breaking off the music being
broadcast to the zones not affected by the call. As compared
with the PM2041-B module, the PM2043-B module also

The module manages routing of the emergency signals, under
the control of the PM2021-V CPU, to the amplifiers.
The module has program 6 inputs and 6 outputs for 6 amplifiers. During normal operation (not in an emergency), the signals applied to the inputs are reproduced exactly on the outputs. In emergency conditions, the VES signals present on the
system BUS are taken by it and routed to the outputs on the
basis of the program written into the CPU. The module also
has an input for an external source, that can be connected as
required to any of the system’s four emergency lines.

The PM2060-B module is a highly sophisticated and compact
digital receiver with frequency-synthesis tuning which has a
decoder for stereo broadcasting stations. A four-digit digital
display shows the frequency of the station to which the system
is tuned, while all the control functions of the receiver are
accessible via a dedicated keypad on the front panel.
The tuner audio signal is sent to the mono mixing bus (“PA”
channel) and to the stereo output, which is separate from the
volume control and accessible from the rear of the module.

The PM2061-V module is a controlled pre-recorded message
generator, for evacuation systems according to IEC 60849
standards. It enables two messages to be played out
simulta-
neously
(i.e. one EVACUATION message and one ALERT message. It is possible to manage the recorder directly via the keypad or through the CPU 2021-V. The messages can either be
played out automatically (for example, by connecting the system to a fire-fighting control unit) or manually via external
contacts. Recording of the messages, which is possible by
means of any dynamic microphone, does not require any
adjustments, thanks to a sophisticated automatic gain control
system which is able to offset even considerable variations in
the voice level. The messages are stored digitally in the Multimediacard
®
, which enables a recording time of 4 minutes per
message.

The card, which has to be installed on a DIN guide or using the special AC2095 accessory, receives from the PM2092-V mod-
ule the command to activate one stand-by amplifier for each group of 4 amplifiers being monitored. The card can be connected to others in cascade formation by means of quick-fitting connectors so as to create other configurations: 1 out of 4, 1 out of
8, 2 out of 8 etc., in multiples of 4.
This card has to be powered by a 24 VDC external power supply.
PM2095
Card for activating stand-by amplifiers
The expansion module allows to expand the system up to a maximum of three card cages. The connection among the cages
carries the signals of the three mixing buses (PA, L and R channels), the serial control line, the priority line and chime.
PM2091-B
Bus expansion module
The loudspeakers lines from PMW amplifiers with PM2092-V control cards can be kept under control using PM2094-V endof-line cards.
The digital monitor identifies the exact point of the failure and its type (break or short circuit), even if the line is split up into
several branches (up to 3), which makes laying the lines far simpler and less expensive.
PM2094-V
End of-line control card
The PM2092 card enables simple and rapid testing of the PMWxx power amplifiers.
It can be used in any system, even for sound-broadcasting only, to carry out the following functions:
• Measuring the impedance of the loudspeaker line
• Diagnosis of correct operation of the amplifier (gain, power supply, electronic protection and operating temperature)
• Checking insulation to earth (GND FAULT)
• Volume control of the amplifier by means of a remote potentiometer (max. 1 km)
• Add a second input that works either as selected or mixed (automatic attenuation of the secondary input) one
• Control of power relay
• Operation in “LOW POWER” energy-saving mode
• Possibility of switching a failed amplifier automatically to the stand-by unit by means of the PM2095 circuit.
In
VES systems
, it is
essential
to add the PM2092 card to the power amplifiers. In this case, the card will be controlled by means
of a serial interface and it will therefore be possible to view all the control parameters and to change them via a PC. These
parameters include:
- Reading of the reference impedance for the test
- Maximum and minimum values between which the test is valid
- Reading of test status
- Testing for the presence of the input signal
- Measurement of temperature of the power transistors
- Volume control
- Remote control of the relay.
It is also possible to monitor continuity of the loudspeakers lines using PM2094-V cards at the end of the line.

Careful design and a choice of reliable
high-tech components led to the creation of this range of extremely compact amplifiers, capable of functioning
even in the toughest conditions. The
forced-ventilation cooling system and
the numerous electronic and thermal
protection devices ensure maximum
reliability of operation in time. These
amplifiers differ from one another only
in their output power and their sizes
(two 60 W or two 120 W amplifiers
take up the same space as one 240 W
amplifier). Each PMS2001 card-cage
can contain two PMW240 or four
PMW60/PMW120 amplifiers, plus all
the intermediate configurations.
The amplifiers of the PMWxxx range can also be used separately from the PMS2000 system whenever such a small layout and
high reliability are required, since they can be housed in any suitable container or be placed on shelves.
In evacuation systems, it
is essential to use the PM2092-V serial control card, to be plugged into the amplifier
. The LEDs on the front panels have the dual
function of VU Meters (in normal conditions) or of indicating the type of failure, if any, detected by the PM2092-V control card.

The panel enables a maximum of 6
zones to be selected by means of a
microphone base. The equipment can
be used both with the line signals
(before the amplifier) and with power
signals (output from the amplifier with
100 V line). The P8036 has provisions
for connecting two amplifiers (one for
music and one for speech) and it can
be configured to operate with a single
amplifier for both voice and music.
There are 4 inputs for auxiliary sound
sources with selectors and level controls, one input on a terminal strip for connecting several stations of the B500 and B600 ranges and an input with VOX
priority for sound sources, such as a message generator or an alarm-tone generator. The music source that was selected,
adjusted in amplitude, will be available at the MUSIC OUT output , while the voice signal from the base or from the VOX
input (depending on priority) will be available on the SPEECH OUT. If there is only one amplifier, this input will also provide the music featuring the lowest priority.

SDP220 Receiver module
This module demodulates the signals distributed by the
SDM200 modulator (or directly by cable radio systems). The
receiver can be activated from a remote location, even if it is
switched off, by means of a voltage of 12 VDC. This feature
means that it is possible, if required, to force broadcasting of
emergency messages to single listening zones. The module can
be operated by means of a 12 VDC source or from the mains
at 230 VAC by means of the SDT100 transformer contained in
the SDA200-T loudspeaker module. The channels are selected
cyclically by means of keys. The selected channel is shown on a
display which has automatic brightness adjustment on the basis
of the ambient light. Volume control is electronic. If the module
is used in a conventional simultaneous translation system, it can
be housed in the conference table or in the arm or backrests of
the chairs. The messages can be listened to through headsets
plugged into the sockets provided for them. For special
installations, the modules can be supplied in customised versions with panels of various types.
The SD200 system enables simultaneous distribution of 6 different programmes over a single pair of wires. The ease of
installation as compared with conventional systems makes it particularly suitable for sound-broadcasting to the single
rooms of accommodation facilities such as hotels, nursing homes, tourist centres, residential centres, cruise ships, ferries
and private homes. The heart of the system is the SDP220 receiver module, which can be installed in any room inside a
normal flush-mounted box for wiring systems. The SDM200 modulator can provide a constant signal for a maximum of
80 SDP220 receivers. Continuous expansion, in multiples of 80 is possible, by including the SDB200 amplifier in the signal line. The SD200 system can also be used to manage up to 6 languages in fixed simultaneous
translation systems. A cabled simultaneous translation system enables excellent listening quality, with no interference
and a very high level of safety against unauthorised tapping.
SDM200 Modulator
This system enables 6 signals from sources generated locally by CD or cassette players, tuners, etc. to be transmitted
and mixed via a telephone pair. A pre-amplifier circuit
adapts the amplitude of the signals of the sources for correct
modulation of the respective carriers generated by a stage
that functions according to the PLL technique, with quartzcontrolled reference frequency. The six modulated carriers
are sent to an RF amplifier and then to the output sockets by
means of an RF transformer that takes care of balancing and
of the correct impedance value.
SDB200 Line amplifier
This must be used if the length of the line attenuates the signal
excessively or, in any case, if the number of SDP220 receivers
is greater than 80. Each SDB200 enables a further 80
receivers to be added. It is possible to expand the system to a
practically unlimited number of receivers using the appropriate additional SDB200 amplifiers. For the 230 VAC mains
power, it is necessary to add the SDT101 transformer.

The ITC2000-C is an interphone system
for counters for the public. Microprocessor-based management allows highquality flexible performance. The system
has more than one operating model. It
can be configured as a handsfree
“speak-listen” unit and, if connected to
an amplifier, it can be incorporated
profitably into a sound-broadcasting
system. This latter application is
extremely interesting, since in addition
to carrying on a conversation over the
counter, the operator can also make
announcements to the public or calls to
zones. These can also be made, with different levels of priority, via the microphones of other operators connected to the system
(i.e. safety personnel, and so on). The ITC2000-C stands out from other “speak-listen” systems available on the market since it
operates in the attenuation mode rather than by switching. This makes the conversation more natural, since the unpleasant breaks
in the dialogue that are typical of switched systems are avoided. The operator station is equipped with a microphone on a flexible stem, long enough to enable conversation in a natural tone of voice and volume, with no howl-round effects. The system must
be equipped with PASO C401-B loudspeakers on the public side, for listening. These are made of aluminium, are extremely
tough and suitable also for applications requiring protection against vandalism, (e.g. railway and underground, night chemists).
In the back panel there are two standard 3,5 mm jack plugs for connecting headphones and/or external microphone.
Note: As an alternative to the C401-B, the models of the EGI range, items nos. G13U/16 or G28N/16 are also available.
ITC2000-C • Interphone system for counters
ITC2000-C
The ITC2000-C interphone system consists of the following:
• Microphone base equipped with microphone with anti-hiss-
ing protection
• External 230 V AC/18 V DC, 500mA power supply
• Connecting cable between the interphone base and the
junction box (length 3 m), equipped with 6-pin (male) telephone connectors
• Junction box (telephone type) with 6-pole (female) telephone connector
• Wall-mounted electret microphone, equipped with shielded
cable (length 3m). This microphone was designed for
mounting on the glass pane above the counter, thanks to its
vibration-proof double-adhesive strip.
