INSTRUCTION MANUAL

After much improvements made to the earlier models, Amperes ZS5601 and ZS5121 finally rolled
out with better features and outlooks.
The original features of emergency paging microphone input port and remote triggering are
maintained. However a priority overtaking LED is added to the front panel to alert the user that
paging from remote is active and thus the BGM zone selected has been bypassed.
With this new product, you are assured that we live up to our policy, ie. continuous improvement to
give you the products that are contemporary and with better value without increment in cost.
Although it is not difficult to install this unit, a brief reading of the manual is truly recommended to
avoid any misconnection as well as explore the potential usage of the product to its maximum.

PARTS IDENTIFICATION
1. BGM ZONE OVERRIDING INDICATOR
The LED shall lit if remote paging microphone is active and is overriding the local BGM zone selection. This is
active if Amperes PM 1060 paging is used or any other paging microphone console with Priority output signal.
2. FRONT PANEL ZONE SWITCHES - ZONE 1 TO 6
Switching for zone 1 to 6. They can be configured as zone 1 to 5 with Sub group switch. Refer to Application
Example on how to do this.

3. FRONT PANEL ZONE SWITCHES - ZONE 7 TO 12
Switching for zone 7 - 12 for ZS5121 only. Refer to Application example for grouping.
4. ALL CALL SWITCH
All zones will be activated by pressing this switch, regardless of any inactive zone.
5. DC SUPPLY INPUT PORT
24V DC supply is required to operate this unit. Ensure polarity is correctly terminated to the port. It is
recommeded that supply with 1A rating of regulated source is used. Amperes PS9400 is recommended as
a DC supply source to your installation.
6. EMERGENCY OVERRIDE TERMINAL
External switch ( eg. fr emergency paging mic with dry contact ) can be connected here, which shall trigger
the built in relay when pressed. This shall then provide a dry contact in which would enable the installer to
apply several functions such as providing 24V DC output for volume controller overriding purpose, trigger
external device or link to BAS system, etc.
7. REMOTE SELECT PORT - Z1 TO 6
8. AMPLIFIER - ZONE OUTPUT CONNECTORS (ZONE 1 TO 6)
Outputs from amplifiers are connected to these terminals and speaker zoning is configured to the
respective unit of amplifier. The user has the flexibility to configure the zoning system as each zone comes
with single amplifier output connection.
Please observe palarity when terminating the amplifier / speaker zones and ensure that each zone is over
overloaded ( less than 400 W rms )
9. REMOTE SELECT PORT - Z7 TO 12
Similiar function as Part7 but only available for ZS5121
10. AMPLIFIER - ZONE OUTPUT CONNECTORS (ZONE 7 TO 12)
Similiar to Part 7 but only available for model ZS 5121
PARTS IDENTIFICATION
ampereselectronics.com
This is to connect to remote paging mic ( PM series ) or Data Decoder ( TD Series ) for remote zone trigger-
ing. Upon triggering the zone via this port, it shall override the locally selected zones. External triggering
switches or other mades of paging microphone can utilise this facility provided -ve triggering method is used.

SINGLE UNIT INSTALLATION WITH REMOTE SELECT
The diagram above shows installation of a 3 zone system with remote triggering employing external switches. ( this
is optional ). In this case, zone triggering can be made from remote area but the front panel switches has to be at
OFF position.
Note :
The sample connections shown are using a single
unit of either ZS5121 or ZS5601 in a small scale
installation. ie. small number of zone outputs.
Assumptions made are that :
1. Volume control overriding facilities are done
separately. ( refer example on page 6)
2. Paging or background music is transmitted only
to the zone selected. (Not uninterrupted
paging system )
3. Power amplifier unit 1 is to serve zone 1 and 2
4. Power amplifier untie 2 is to serve zone 3
The illustration below shows a zone selector
connected to the Amperes PM1060 desktop
paging microphone. This shall provide a better
zone selection than the above configuration.
Two way zone selection can be done, either from
the PM1060 or via the front panel switches of the
zone selector, with PM1060 has a priority over
the former.
Example :
With front panel switches 1 and 2 active, and the
user wishes to page zone 3 only, activation of
zone 3 from PM1060 shall override zone 1 and 2.
Upon releasing zone 3 from PM1060, zone 1 and
2 shall then return to its previous state.
