1. Loosen screws inside top and bottom holes of
cover (see Figure 3.6).
2. Slide cover to left or right, then pull it off away
from the amplifier.
Crown recommends using professionally con-
structed, high-quality, two- or four-conductor,
heavy gauge speaker wire and connectors. You
may use terminal forks up to 10 AWG or bare
wire for your output connectors (see Figure 3.5).
To prevent the possibility of short-circuits, wrap
or otherwise insulate exposed loudspeaker cable
connectors. For best results, Crown recom-
mends Panduit part #PV10-10LF-L or equivalent
terminal fork. Screw spacing is shown in Figure

4 Operation
4.1 Precautions
Your amplifier is protected from internal and external
faults, but you should still take the following precautions
for optimum performance and safety:
On the back panel, check whether your amplifier is labeled
for 120V or 220-240V AC mains. Connect your amplifier
to the corresponding AC mains power source (power out-
let) with the supplied AC power cordset. First, connect the
IEC end of the cordset to the IEC connector on the ampli-
fier. Then, with the amplifier in the OFF position, plug the
other end of the cordset into the AC mains.
1. Before use, your amplifier first must be configured for
proper operation, including input and output wiring
hookup. Improper wiring can result in serious operat-
ing difficulties. For information on wiring and config-
uration, please consult the Setup section of this
manual or, for advanced setup techniques, consult
Crown’s Amplifier Application Guide available online
at www.crownaudio.com.
WARNING: The third prong of this connector
(ground) is an important safety feature. Do not
attempt to disable this ground connection by
using an adapter or other methods.
Amplifiers don’t create energy. The AC mains voltage and
current must be sufficient to deliver the power you expect.
Check the amplifier’s back-panel label which specifies the
required AC mains voltage and frequency. The AC mains
voltage must be no more than 15% above the required
voltage, and no less than 25% below the required voltage.
The AC mains frequency must be within the required fre-
quency range. If you are unsure of the output voltage of
your AC mains, please consult your electrician.
2. Use care when making connections, selecting signal
sources and controlling the output level. The load you
save may be your own!
3. Do not short the ground lead of an output cable to the
input signal ground. This may form a ground loop
and cause oscillations.
4. Never connect the output to a power supply,
battery or power main. Electrical shock may
result.
3.8 Startup Procedure
Use the following procedure when first turning on your
amplifier:
5. Tampering with the circuitry, or making unauthorized
circuit changes may be hazardous and invalidates all
agency listings.
1. Turn down the level of your audio source.
2. Turn down the level controls of the amplifier.
6. Do not operate the amplifier with the red Clip LEDs
constantly flashing.
3. Turn on the “Power” switch. The Power indicator
should glow. Wait for the “Ready” LED to illuminate.
7. Do not overdrive the mixer, which will cause clipped
signal to be sent to the amplifier. Such signals will be
reproduced with extreme accuracy, and loudspeaker
damage may result.
4. Turn up the level of your audio source to an optimum
level.
5. Turn up the Level controls on the amplifier until the
desired loudness or power level is achieved. Verify
that the Signal LED is flashing.
8. Do not operate the amplifier with less than the rated
load impedance. Due to the amplifier’s output protec-
tion, such a configuration may result in premature
clipping and speaker damage.
6. Turn down the level of your audio source to its normal
range.
If you ever need to make any wiring or installation
changes, don’t forget to turn off the amplifier and discon-
nect the power cord.
Remember: Crown is not liable for damage that results
from overdriving other system components.
For help with determining your system’s optimum gain
structure (signal levels) please refer to the Crown Ampli-
fier Application Guide, available online at

these Crown amplifier features, please
consult the Crown Amplifier Application
Guide, available on the Crown website
at www.crownaudio.com
A soft-start circuit in the power supply mini-
mizes the amplifier’s current draw during
power-on.
The amplifier will light the Fault LED if the
amplifier output stage stops operating. If this
happens, see Section 8 for servicing informa-
tion.
5.1.10 Variable-speed Fans
5.1 Protection Systems
5.1.4 High-Pass Filters
Two continuously variable speed fans direct the
airflow through the amplifier for cooling.
Your Crown amplifier provides extensive pro-
tection and diagnostic capabilities, including
thermal level control, fault indicators, high-
pass filtering, DC protect, AC under/over volt-
age protection, inrush limiting, and variable-
speed fans.
Very low frequency signals contain no useful
musical energy, waste valuable amplifier power
and headroom, and can be damaging to your
speakers. Your Crown amplifier provides high-
pass filters to remove these signals from each
channel’s output.
5.2 Advanced Features
5.2.1 Switching Power Supply
Crown’s Switching Power Supply minimizes
the amplifier’s weight.
5.1.1 Thermal Level Control (TLC)
On the back panel are two 3-position 3rd-order
high-pass filter switches (one per channel) with
selections of Off, 35Hz and 70 Hz.
Typical non-switching power supplies require
large, heavy transformers in order to produce
the required power at the output stage. These
transformers must be large to operate at 50 to
60 Hz (standard AC supplied by the power
company).
If the amplifier becomes too hot for safe opera-
tion, the light will shine brightly and TLC will
engage the input compressor. By compressing
the input, the amplifier will not generate as
much heat and will have a chance to cool down.
The degree of compression is proportional to
the amount of overheating. This feature allows
the show to go on, rather than having the
amplifier shut down.
5.1.5 Low-Pass Filters
Gaussian-approximation ultrasonic filters pre-
vent ultrasonic feedback and HF burnout in
drivers. This type of filter preserves transient
reponse better than a Butterworth filter.
By contrast, switching power supplies can
operate with a much smaller (and lighter) trans-
former because they first convert the AC up to a
much higher frequency, thereby reducing
waste.
5.1.6 AC Under/Over Voltage
Protection
5.1.2 Junction Temperature Simu-
lation (JTS) (CTs 600/1200 only)
If the AC line voltage drops below 25% or rises
above 15% of the nominal operating voltage of
the amplifier, the amplifier’s power supply turns
off and the blue Power LED flashes. The ampli-
fier will turn back on when the AC line voltage
returns to safe operating levels (within +15% /
-25%).
The power supply is voltage-specific, allowing
use in regions using 120V or 240V.
JTS circuitry simulates the operation of the
amplifier’s output transistors, and compares it
against the transistors known Safe Operation
Area (SOA). If JTS sees that more power is
about to be asked of the output devices than
they are capable of delivering under the present
conditions, JTS immediately limits the drive
level until it falls within the SOA. Limiting is
proportional and kept to an absolute minimum-
only what is required to prevent the possibility
of output transistor damage.
5.2.2 Input Compressor
Prevent input/output overload.
5.2.3 Sleep Circuit
5.1.7 Circuit Breaker
Lowers standby power consumption by shut-
ting down the high-voltage supplies during idle
periods.
A circuit breaker located near the IEC power
inlet protects the amplifier from excessive AC
current draw.
NOTE: By default, the sleep circuit is not active
on the CTs 600/1200, but may be activated as a
service option.
This level of protection enables Crown to
increase output transistor utilization while also
greatly increasing amplifier reliability.
5.1.8 DC Output Servo
The output servo circuit protects your drivers
by eliminating DC offset, even in the presence
of very large asymmetrical signals.

T-170V: See Figure 5.3. This is an autoformer that
allows 100V output from the CTs 600/1200, and
allows other amplifiers without direct constant voltage
output to be easily integrated into distributed systems.
To access the Input Sensitivity Switches, turn off the amplifier and remove the
PIP2-BBY Input Panel. The switches are in the top surface of the cavity behind the
Input Panel. One 3-position switch per channel selects among these settings: CTs
600/1200: 1.4V (8/4 ohms), 26 dB gain, and 1.4V (70V operation). CTs 2000/
3000: 1.4V (8/4 ohms), 26 dB gain, and 1.4V (70V) / 2V (100V). The Specifications
chapter lists the input sensitivity for the 26 dB gain setting.
TP-170V: See Figure 5.4. This is a rack-mountable
panel with four autoformers as described above.
Figure 5.3 170V
PIP Modules
Versatile PIP (Programmable Input Processor) mod-
ules provide flexible expansion features that can be
added to customize the amplifier. PIP modules plug
into the connector inside the back panel of the ampli-
fier. PIP modules are available with features ranging
from error-driven compressor/limiters to crossovers to
IQ control. Your amplifier is a PIP2 amplifier, which
means it can take advantage of the many advanced fea-
tures found in PIP2 modules. The CTs Series 2-chan-
nel models do not accept earlier PIP modules.
Visit the Crown website at www.crownaudio.com, or
contact Crown Customer Service, for descriptions of
available PIP and PIP2 modules.

Addendum To Operation Manual
Note: This addendum pertains to
Section 3 - Setup
Section 5 - Advanced Features and Options
Section 9 - Service
It is important that you review this addendum before reviewing the Operation
Manual.
Section 3
With reference to the DUAL/MONO mode switch:
Dual mode allows each amplifier channel to operate independently like a stereo amplifier.
Installation is intuitive - input Channel 1 feeds output Channel 1 and input Channel 2 feeds
output Channel 2. To put the amplifier into the Dual mode, turn it off, slide the DUAL/
MONO switch to DUAL, and properly connect the output wiring.
The MONO switch setting is the BRIDGE-MONO mode and is used to drive loads with a
total impedance of at least 4 ohms. For distributed loudspeaker systems, 140 volts (twice the
normal 70- volt output) is produced. To put the amplifier into the Bridge-Mono mode, turn it
off, and slide the DUAL/MONO switch to MONO. Both outputs will receive the signal from
Channel 1 with the output of Channel 2 inverted so it can be bridged with the Channel 1
output. Please note that there is no provision for paralleling the outputs to obtain a
single high-powered 70-volt constant voltage output.
Section 5
Federal Signal will not offer the T- 170V, TP- 170V, or PIP Modules as indicated in Section
5.3 -Options.
Section 9
For any service related issues, please contact Crown Technical Support. Return the unit to
Crown Factory Service, or to a Crown authorized service center if repairs need to be made.

to be sent to the selected speakers; releasing the
microphone will allow Channel A or B operation to
resume.
Keying the Microphone button will allow the
user to direct audio to specific zones (default is All-
Call). The user may select zones using either indi-
vidual speaker or preset buttons; Channel A or B
operation will not be interrupted until the micro-
phone is actually keyed. Releasing the microphone
will allow Channel A or B to resume operation on its
selected speakers.
Each preset can be manually activated locally
with its associated push button switch on the front
panel or with a contact closure at the associated
preset control input on the back panel. Whenever a
preset is activated, either locally or remotely, its
associated front panel push button LED illuminates
to indicate that the preset has been activated. The
LED remains lit until the preset is deactivated or the
remote contact closure is removed. As an added
feature, when a preset is remotely activated, the
associated LED illuminates and flashes until the
remote contact closure is removed. All AR2000-M
controls are located on the front panel except gain
adjustments which are made on the back panel
during installation.
Pressing the All Call button (whether the unit is
in Microphone mode or Channel A/B mode) will cause
all zones to be selected. Pressing any individual zone
when All Call is lit, however, will cancel all the zones
except that one.
Pressing All Call will perform the following
function:

If the correct password is entered the caller will
hear the message “PRESS 9 KEY TO CHANGE THE
PASSWORD OR 6 KEY TO RECORD A MESSAGE”.
Default is to all zones. Phone receiving is
disabled during message playback; therefore, subse-
quent calls must wait for the current message to be
completed before another recording will take place.
If the caller presses the 9 key, the message
“ENTER NEW PASSWORD” will inform the caller to
enter a new password. The same new password must
be entered twice. Otherwise, the caller will hear the
message “PASSWORD NOT CHANGED” then the

phone line. If the new password is successfully
entered twice, the caller will hear the message
“PASSWORD CHANGED” then the message
“GOODBYE” and the system hangs up the phone
line.
Preset operation
The preset optos are a combination of edge and
level-tripped. If the system sees an active edge on an
opto, it will set the input and output relays for the
corresponding preset. The relays will remain set
until the input goes away.
Setting a Preset:
To set a preset, select the zones desired for the
preset by pressing and releasing the appropriate zone
button. The LED corresponding to that zone will
illuminate. Select the input source (Channel A or
Channel B) for that preset. Press and hold the
appropriate preset button until it begins to flash.
The preset is now set.
If the caller presses the 6 key, the message
“RECORD MESSAGE, PRESS # KEY TO BROAD-
CAST YOUR MESSAGE” prompts the caller to start
speaking. The message can be up to 90 seconds long.
If the user exceeds 90 second duration, the message
will not play back.
To recall a preset simply select the preset by
pressing and releasing the associated preset button.
At any time during the call, the caller can enter
the # key or hang-up the phone to exit. Also, when a
key input is necessary, the caller has 5 seconds to
enter a key or the system hangs up automatically.
1-2. CHASSIS DESCRIPTION.
The Model AR2000-M is assembled in a black,
sprayed aluminum 3-piece housing approximately
17.5” wide by 14.25" deep by 3.5" high. It is intended

twelve screws, four on the front panel, four on the
rear panel and four securing the top to the sides. The
front panel switches are designated as PRESET 1
through PRESET 8.
1-4. POWER.
WARNING
In order to prevent power to the AR2000-M
from being accidentally turned off, the unit
has a power switch located on the back of the
unit. Before performing any installation or
maintenance, ensure that power is discon-
nected.
The Model AR2000-Z is assembled in a black,
sprayed aluminum 3-piece housing approximately
17.5” wide by 10.125" deep by 1.75" high. It is in-
tended to be rack mounted in a standard 19” rack
mount cabinet. The housing is held together with
twelve screws, four on the front panel, four on the
rear panel and four securing the top to the sides. The
front panel switches are designated as ZONE 1
through ZONE 8.
The front panel has a green LED to indicate the
presence of primary power. It also has a red LED to
indicate the presence of secondary power in use. The
AR2000-M can be operated from either a 120VAC,
240VAC or a 24VDC power source. The AC power is
connected via the power cord, which requires manual
switching in order to operate. 24VDC Backup con-
nects via the rear terminals directly underneath the
4-Amp, Bussman-type GMT indicating fuse.
1-3. CONTROL CIRCUITRY.
A. Control Circuitry.
The control circuitry in the AR2000-M has a
built-in priority level feature. The local microphone
has the highest priority level when activated. If a
preset is initiated by contact closure, the AR2000-M
will grant that preset priority. The Audio Router will
store the current selection first, then activate the
preset. Once the contact closure is removed, the
AR2000-M will return the system to the previous
condition. Pressing cancel will deactivate any cur-
rently active selections.
WARNING
If this unit is to be connected to a non-power
limited 24 volt dc supply, the National Electri-
cal Code (NFPA 70) requires that those leads
be separated from other classes of wiring
connected to this unit.
The AR2000-P and the AR2000-Z obtain power
directly from the AR2000-M.
1-5. AUDIO INPUTS.
B. All CALL Pushbutton.

The ALL CALL pushbutton switch selects
and connects all zones to the currently selected input
source. Pressing the ALL CALL again returns the
system to the previous condition.
C. CANCEL Pushbutton.
The CANCEL pushbutton when pressed will
reset all the manually activated signaling functions
of the AR2000-M.
D. MONITOR SPKR.
A monitor speaker may be connected to the
unit at this output. Audio to this output will exist
during all conditions except when the microphone is
in use. This prevents any feedback from the micro-
phone.

ing in a standard rack. It utilizes a space of 1U.
The AR2000-Z provides four (4) holes for mount-
ing in a standard rack. It utilizes a space of 1U.
Peoples lives depend on proper installation of
our products. It is important to follow all instructions
shipped with these products. These devices are to be
installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with
the National Electrical Code (NFPA 70), or other
national or local codes, under the direction of the
local authority having jurisdiction.
3-3. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS.
DANGER
To avoid electrical shock and damage to the
device, do not attempt to connect wires when
power is on.
The selection of the mounting location for the
device, its controls and routing of the wiring is to be
accomplished under the direction of the Facilities
Engineer and the Safety Engineer. In addition, listed
below are some other important safety instructions
and precautions you should follow:
Terminal blocks are supplied on the AR2000-M
for field wiring. Strip 1/2" of insulation from the
wiring leads. Attach the appropriate wires to the
corresponding terminals. Tighten the screws to
insure that the wires are firmly held in place. The
terminals will accept conductor sizes 23 AWG to 13
AWG.
•
•
•
Read and understand all instructions before
installing or operating this equipment.
Do not connect this unit to the system when
power is on.
3-4. SIGNAL LINES.
Speakers connected to this system can pro-
duce loud sounds which may cause, in certain
situations, permanent hearing loss. You
should take appropriate precautions such as
wearing hearing protection.
A. The signal lines transfer the tone signals
and verbal messages from the AR2000-M to the
selected zones and their devices. In order to reduce
the possibility of cross talk, hum and static noise
pick-up, the signal lines must be twisted pair,
shielded audio cable. Although the majority of sys-
tems use AWG 18 shielded twisted pair audio cables,
the size of the audio cable should be adjusted to
correspond to the level of audio being routed in your
application.
•
•
After installation, test the Audio Router
sound system to ensure proper operation.
Show these instructions to your Safety
Engineer and then file them in a safe place
and refer to them when maintaining and/or
reinstalling the unit.
CAUTION
•
•
Establish a procedure to routinely check the
sound system for proper activation and
operation.
If too small a wire gauge is used, unaccept-
able signal voltage drop in the signal line will
cause reduced sound output from the remote
signal device. Only use a cable having wire
gauge greater than 22AWG.
Consult the authority having jurisdiction in
your area regarding the proper use and
installation of this product.
B. Federal does not recommend that new or
existing telephone lines be used as signal lines in an
Audio Router system for the following reasons:
3-1. UNPACKING.
After unpacking the unit, examine it for damage
that may have occurred in transit. If equipment has
been damaged, do not attempt to install or operate it.
File a claim immediately with the carrier stating the
extent of the damage. Carefully check all envelopes,
shipping labels and tags before removing or destroy-
ing them.
1. Interference from other services or
systems, or interference from the system to other
services.
2. Cross talk, interference or hum induced
by other telephone lines.
3. Extended downtime because of the second
party involvement required to service the lines.
4. The additional cost of installation, inter-
facing devices and monthly charges as opposed to a
one-time cost of performing the installation.
3-2. MOUNTING ARRANGEMENTS.
The AR2000-M provides four (4) holes for
mounting in a standard rack. It utilizes a space of 2U.

3-5. MODEL AR2000-M SIGNAL
CONNECTIONS.
AR2000-M to the 70 Vrms position. The output audio
must be connected using 16GA wire from AUDIO
OUT to AUDIO IN FROM EXTERNAL AMP. The
Gain may be adjusted using the AUDIO OUT VOL-
UME control knob.
CAUTION
Crosstalk can occur between signal lines and
power lines, causing confusing messages,
which interfere with the capability of this
equipment.
C. 25 Vrms Signal Line Application.
The AR2000-M has provision for connecting
25 Vrms line operated speakers to its output. Connect
the 25 Vrms line at the terminals of Zone 1 – Zone 8
terminal block(s). Connect the speakers in parallel to
this line using 25 Vrms line tap. This output is
selected by setting the switch on the back of the
AR2000-M to the 25 Vrms position. The output audio
must be connected using 16GA wire from AUDIO
OUT to AUDIO IN FROM EXTERNAL AMP. The
Gain may be adjusted using the AUDIO OUT VOL-
UME control knob.
Do not install signal lines in the same conduit
with power lines. Avoid routing signal lines on
cable trays with high voltage power lines.
To connect the signal lines of the system to the
AR2000-M, connect a color-coded shielded twisted
pair of audio cables having conductors no smaller
than 18 AWG to + and - of each zone output being
utilized to the appropriate remote device(s). (See
figure 3-1.) Every remote signaling device in the
system will be connected in parallel to these lines.
When connecting the remote devices in parallel to the
signal lines, observe the correct polarity and install
wire nuts over the connections.
D. Low Level Audio Output.
The AR2000-M also has provision for 1 volt
audio output that can be switched to each zone for
individual external amplification. This low level
output is available at the same terminals as in B and
C above. This output is selected by setting the
switch on the back of the AR2000-M to the 1 Vrms
position. The output audio must also be connected
using 18-20GA wire from AUDIO OUT to AUDIO IN
FROM EXTERNAL AMP. The Gain may be adjusted
using the AUDIO OUT VOLUME control knob. It
can also be connected to an analog fiber optic trans-
mitter so that audio can be transmitted over a fiber
optic link in an electrically noisy environment.
NOTE: If using the supplied amplifier or an external
amplifier, the output audio must be connected using
appropriate wire from AUDIO OUT to AUDIO IN
FROM EXTERNAL AMP. If using the on-board
amplifier, directly connect the AUDIO IN FROM
EXTERNAL AMP to the AUDIO OUT terminals on
the back of the AR2000-M. See section 3-4 for recom-
mended wire sizes.
3-6. CONNECTION TO REMOTE DEVICES.
Physically install the remote device(s); follow the
installation instructions packed with the device.

used, it is not necessary to switch the power source if
a power failure occurs.
CAUTION
Improper installation could render this
system inoperable, interfering with the
indicating nature of this product. The instal-
lation must conform to applicable local and/or
National Electrical codes.
3. Disadvantages of Backup Power System.
a. A separate power source for all
remote devices is required. Heavy power lines are
required from that power source to the remote
devices in the system. The size of the power lines is
dependent upon the number of amplifiers and the
total distance of the power loop in order to minimize
the voltage drop while a signal is being routed.
If an emergency power source is required, a
backup power system described below should be
employed.
WARNING
b. Future expansion is limited by the
current capacity of the power source and the power
lines that were initially installed.
If the AR2000-M is to be connected to a non-
power limited 24 volt dc supply, the National
Electrical Code (NFPA70) requires that those
leads be separated from other classes of
wiring connected to this unit.
c. Central power installations must
comply with local electrical codes. Most power cir-
cuits are Class I circuits. Therefore, conduit will
probably be required. Installation costs are higher
than a local power system.
B. Backup Power (See figure 3-3).
1. General.
C. AR2000-M System Power Connections.
In the backup power system all of the
local power lines are connected in parallel to one
centrally located power source of 24VDC.
DANGER
Installation with the system power on could
cause serious injury or death. Do not perform
any installation or maintenance on this
system when power is on. Ensure that the
power is disconnected before proceeding.
2. Advantages of the Backup Power System.
a. The entire system may be indepen-
dent of local line voltage.
b. The entire system can be switched to
an emergency standby power source in the event of a
power failure.
WARNING
This device is to be installed by a trained
electrician who is thoroughly familiar with
the national electrical code (NFPA 70) and
local codes and will follow the guidelines.
c. The central power system has the
added advantage that an auxiliary power supply,
such as the Federal Model PS600 can be used to

3-8. CONNECTIONS TO REMOTE SWITCHES.
If this unit is to be connected to a non-power
limited 24 volt dc supply, the National Electri-
cal Code (NFPA70) requires that those leads
be separated from other classes of wiring
connected to this unit.
The AR2000-M presets can be activated re-
motely by any normally open low current switch
contacts having a current capacity of at least 50 mA
inductive. Figure 3-6 illustrates the connection of
switch contacts to the AR2000-M. S1, S2, S3 and S4
represents remote switch contacts such as those
found in flow switches, program clocks, heat detec-
tors, and smoke detectors. The remotely activated
presets function as long as the activating contacts
remain closed. A jumper needs to be placed across
OPTO COMMON and the provided +24V terminal
next to it on the back of the AR2000-M in order for
the remotely activated presets to function. A remote
switch may be connected to the ALL CALL position if
desired. These are all Normally Open contacts that
initiate with contact closure and remain active until
the contact is opened again.
CAUTION
Cross talk, interference, or hum can be
induced in signal lines, causing poor audio
output or confusing messages, which inter-
feres with the capability of this equipment.
Do not install power lines in the same conduit
as signal lines.
Operating power is connected to AR2000-M
by merely inserting the plug end of the line cord into
any standard 120 volt, 60 Hz outlet. The AR2000-M is
factory set for 120VAC 50/60Hz operation. If 240 volt
operation is preferred, the input block provides a
switch that must be set to this position in order to
function at 240 VAC operation.
3-9. INPUT SOURCE CONNECTIONS.
WARNING
If it is desired to use 24 VDC either as a
primary or auxiliary source of power, connect the “+”
terminal of 24 volt DC power supply to the “+”
terminal at the 24VDC BACKUP POWER terminal
on the AR2000-M and “-” terminal of the 24 VDC
power supply to the “-“ terminal at the 24VDC
BACKUP POWER terminal on the AR2000-M located
in the back of the device. (See figure 3-3.)
Installation or maintenance on AR2000-M
when power is on can result in serious injury
or death. Do not perform any installation or
maintenance to the system when power is on.
Set selector for CH A to the appropriate input
voltage, 1Vrms, 25Vrms or 70Vrms. Connect the “+”
of the source device to the “+” terminal at the Chan-
nel A input. Connect the “-“ of the source device to
the “-“ terminal at the Channel A input. Repeat this
process for the Channel B input. CH A and CH B
volume controls are available just above each input
selector to allow the input gain to be adjusted.
D. AR2000-P and AR2000-Z Power Connections.
Operating power is connected to AR2000-P
and AR2000-Z by merely connecting 24 VDC from the
AR2000-M to each unit. A terminal block is provided
at the rear-left side of each unit for power connection.
Observe and maintain proper polarity when wiring
the power to these units. Connect the “+” terminal of
the AR2000-M to the “+” terminal of the AR2000-P at
the “+” terminal located in the back of device. Con-
nect the “-” terminal of the AR2000-M to the “-”
terminal of the AR2000-P at the “-” terminal located
in the back of device. An additional 24VDC power
outlet is provided on each AR2000-P and AR2000-Z
for daisy-chaining the power to each sub-unit. Re-
peat for each AR2000-P and AR2000-Z.
CAUTION
Be certain to set the input selector switch to
the appropriate input voltage to avoid dam-
age to the unit and the device being con-
nected.
3-10. COMMUNICATION CONNECTIONS for
AR2000-P and AR2000-Z.
WARNING
Setup for the AR2000-P presets is done in the
same way as the AR2000-M presets. (See figure 3-4.)
It is important that the communication lines
be properly connected to their respective
communication port. Failure to connect the
cables properly will damage the devices and
possibly render them inoperable.
Setup for the AR2000-Z zones is done in the
same way as the AR2000-M. An audio input is
provided on each unit to be routed to each of the
zones it selects. This audio should be connected by
wiring a connection from the master audio output to
the provided input terminals. (See figure 3-5.) Each
additional AR2000-Z should obtain audio in the same
manner from the unit above. (See figure 3-5.)
The label on the back of each device indicates
where the communication cable link should be
connected. See figure 3-6 for appropriate placement.

D. INSTALLATION.
To avoid electrical shock, do not attempt to install wires when power is on.
1. Electrical Connections.
FOR SUPERVISED SYSTEMS
An uninsulated section of a single conductor must NOT be looped around a terminal and
used as two separate connections. The wire must be severed to provide electrical
supervision of the connection.
Use 2 x 14-18 AWG wiring for speaker models.
Strip 1/4" of insulation from all wiring leads. Attach the appropriate wires to the correspond-
ing terminals on the back of the speaker as shown in figures 1, 2, and 3. The positive or “+” terminal
is marked with a red screw head. Tighten the screws to ensure that the wires are firmly held in
place.
To select the desired wattage, refer to paragraph B. and see figures 1 and 2. Move the
receptacle-wire assembly to set the desired output level. See table 1.
The 25/70 volt model is factory configured for 70 Vrms operation. For 25 Vrms operation
remove the supplied receptacle/wire assembly and place it on the 25V tab (see figure 1). The 100
volt model is factory configured for 100 volt operation and no user connections are required.
2. Mounting (see figure 4).
Both loudspeaker models are mounted using the R6BB back box and R6TB support bridge.
These loudspeakers can easily be mounted to any surface thickness between 1/4" and 1-1/2" due to
the unique adjustable “L” shaped clamps (see figure 4). Mounting of this product using the Model
R6BB back box and Model R6TB support bridge into a ceiling tile is accomplished as follows:
a. Remove the ceiling tile and cut a hole using the enclosed template or using the Model
R6TB support bridge as a template.
b. Bend up the four horseshoe tabs on the bridge (see figure 4).
c. Replace the tile and push back an adjacent tile.

A. Description.
Le Modèle AM30 de Federal Signal est un cornet de sonorisation à facteur de directivité
constante de valeur nominale conservative 30 watts pour utilisation dans des applications de
sonorisation ou de recherche par haut-parleur.
Le driver utilise une membrane phénolique solide, une bobine vocale de diamètre 1,5" et une
structure magnétique en ferrite “centrée” pour permettre une longue durée et durabilité dans
des conditions de fonctionnement extrêmes.
Un câble phasé et codé en couleur 12" est prévu pour connecter au AM30.
Un mode nominal de couverture horizontal 60º et vertical 40º ainsi qu’une coupure basse
fréquence à 350Hz donne une articulation excellente pour des applications difficiles.
Le AM30 est moulé en ASA arrêtant les ultraviolets, résistant à de gros chocs (acrylique
styrène acrylonitrile). Une base pivotante en Nylon super-dure à verrouillage positif permet une
souplesse maximale de montage et facilite l’installation.
Idéal pour des applications intérieures et extérieures, ce cornet convient bien à toute application
