AUSTRALIAN MONITOR TX8202 User manual

Description
The TX8202 is a high performance 8 channel stereo mixer suitable for desk or
rack mounting.
Inputs and Outputs
The TX8202 has four active balanced mic/line inputs and four stereo line inputs.
Each channel features recessed treble, bass and pan controls. Mic/Line level
can be adjusted per channel via a dip switch. All mic and line input connections
are via 3 pin XLR female sockets, and all stereo line input connections are via
dual female RCA sockets. Both the Left and Right outputs are balanced and
feature 3 pin male XLR sockets. Astereo tape output using dual female RCA
sockets is also provided. A¼” stereo headphone socket is included on the front
panel. The rear panel includes a terminal block for activation of the optional
Tone Generator. The first four channels feature a line level direct output which
can be used to feed additional amplifiers, mixers or recording devices. An
internal jumper allows the first four inputs to be removed from the master left/
right outputs while still retaining their direct output function.
Controls and Metering
Front panel controls include Master Left and Right Outputs plus individual
channel level controls. Each channel also features a recessed, screwdriver
adjustable treble, bass and pan control. Afour position dip switch (mic/line,
phantom power, routing) is provided for the first four channels. A7 segment LED
meter is provided for both the Left and Right Outputs. Apower “on” orange LED is
part of the LED meter. An optional remote master VCA is available for remote
master volume control.
VCA Control
The optional VCA control module (AMVCA) allows the master volume to be remotely
controlled. External VCA control would normally be via potentiometer connected to a
two wire rear panel barrier strip.
Muting
Muting is standard on the unit for channels one and two. Both channels have equal
priority and will mute channels 3-8 when signal is present. The muting function can
be disabled by moving an internal jumper.
Tone Generators
Bell, Pre-Announce Chime, Evacuate and Alert are included in the unit. Each tone
can be activated by a simple contact closure using the rear panel terminal block.
Phantom Power
Phantom Power (15V DC) is available on all mic inputs and can be disabled if
required via a dip switch.
