INTRODUCTION

These instructions contain the specifications and

guidelines necessary to install, operate, and

maintain the Modular Pre-Amp/Mixer. The unit

provides connections for up to 4 remote input

modules. The mixer consists of a V-9983 Main

Control Module and a V-9984 Remote Input

Module.

The Modular Pre-Amp Mixer is used with

Valcom distributed amplified one way paging

systems providing additional audio source

inputs.

The V-9985 provides active mixing for 1

balanced microphone and 2 auxiliary inputs.

Also supplied is an additional audio input

(building page) with an override feature. Up to 3

additional Remote Input Modules (V-9984) may

be connected to the Main Control Module. Each

Remote Input Module adds 1 Balanced

Microphone and 1 Auxiliary input.

INSTALLATION

Figure 1 shows volume control locations,

microphone and auxiliary input connections.

Figure 2 shows output terminal strips and

switches on the back of the mixer. Figure 3

shows a typical connecting arrangement. The V-

9985 contains a Main Mixer Module and 1

Remote Module. Three additional remote

modules may be connected to the main mixer

module. Figure 4 shows other feature

connections. Figure 5 shows Remote Input

Module, Speaker and Power Connections.

All connections should be made to the mixer and

double-checked prior to connecting DC power.

Connect the microphone to balanced XLR cables

and the microphone XLR connector on the

Remote Input Module. If the microphone is a

condenser type it will require Phantom Power.

Turn “ON” the Phantom Power Switch located on

the Remote Module using a small scribe or paper

clip. The Phantom Power LED will illuminate.

The microphone volume control is located on the

remote module. Other sources such as CD and

MP3 players, tuners, and computer sound cards

may be connected to the auxiliary inputs located

on the remote and main modules. Volume

controls for the auxiliary inputs are located on the

remote input and main control module.

An additional audio input is available with a

volume control located on the PC board for

connection to a low level audio source such as a

telephone page port or Valcom One-Way Page

Control. An option dip switch located on the PC

board enables the input to override the

microphone and auxiliary inputs.

A compressor is available to even out a user’s

voice to compensate for poor microphone or

vocal technique and allow more microphone gain

before feedback. All auxiliary and microphone

inputs are routed through the compressor when

enabled. An option dip switch located on the PC

board enables the compressor.

947285

A connection is provided to add a remote volume

control. This is a 2 wire connection using a 10K

ohm linear potentiometer.

Speaker Connections

Connect Tip and Ring of Valcom Amplifed

Speakers to the output screw terminals located

on the Main Mixer Module. Connect Tip and Ring

of Valcom Amplified Paging Horns to horn audio

output screw terminals.

When setting the system up, it is recommended

that the master gain control be set 2/3 and aux

volume controls be set to 1/4.

OPERATION

The V-9985, Four Channel Pre-Amp/Mixer

actively mixes any signals present on the inputs.

Each input is equipped with its own volume

control to allow blending of the input sources.

The unit also has a master volume control to

allow a volume level adjustment of all mixed

signals. Bass and treble controls allow up to

12dB of boost or cut at 50 Hz and 10 kHz.

An audio input is available on the main control

module allowing connection of a low level signal

that will override all other inputs. An option dip

switch controls the override feature.

The integrated compressor feature is controlled

by an option dip switch. Microphone and

auxiliary inputs are routed through the

compressor when the compressor is active.

Two outputs are provided by the V-9985 modular

mixer.

•An output to drive full range speakers

•An output to drive limited range paging horns
