Louroe Electronics RN-2 User manual

rn-2 2/08
Model RN-2 is a audio mixer for combining two
microphones or two speaker/microphones into one
audio zone. It is mounted between the two
microphones and the Louroe base station or other
receiving equipment. Contains an adjustment
potentiometer for microphone balance control. The
RN-2 is phantom powered by the Louroe base station.
If the base station is not used and RN-2 is interfaced
directly with other equipment (VCR, etc.), then 12 Vdc
power must be applied to terminals A and C of either
the input or output terminal block of the RN-2.
NOTE: RN-2 is a mixer for combining two microphones or two speaker/microphones to
create a larger audio monitoring zone. Both microphones serve as one zone.
They are NOT on separate channels

ELECTRICAL: WIRING CONNECTION FROM MICROPHONES TO RN-2
INPUT CONNECTIONS
I. Bring in wiring from first Louroe microphone (or speaker/microphone) to INPUT side of RN-2
and connect as follows:
1. Wire from terminal A of microphone goes to A of RN-2
2. Wire from terminal B of microphone goes to B1 of RN-2
3. Wire from terminal C of microphone goes to C of RN-2
If microphone includes a speaker, speaker wires connect as follows:
(a) Positive connection from speaker connects to SP terminal of RN-2
(b) Ground connection from speaker connects to C terminal of RN-2
II. Bring in wiring from second microphone (or speaker/microphone) to INPUT side of RN-2 and
connect as follows::
1. Wire from terminal A of second microphone goes to A of RN-2
2. Wire from terminal B of second microphone goes to B2 of RN-2
3. Wire from terminal C of second microphone goes to C of RN-2
If microphone includes a speaker, speaker wires are doubled up with first speaker at terminals C
and SP of INPUT side.
CONNECTING RN-2 TO LOUROE BASE STATION
From OUTPUT side of RN-2, make connection to the Louroe base station as follows:
1. Terminal A of output goes to terminal A of base station
2. Terminal B of output goes to terminal B of base station
3. Terminal C of output goes to terminal C of base station
4. If speakers are included, terminals C and SP from OUTPUT side connect with C and
SP of base station.
MICROPHONE BALANCE ADJUSTMENT
Located on the output side of the RN-2 Mixer is an adjustment potentiometer for microphone
balance. If more volume is desired from microphone connected to the B-1 input side, turn
potentiometer counterclockwise toward the B-1 arrow. If more volume is desired from microphone
connected to the B-2 input side, turn potentiometer clockwise toward the B-2 arrow. For equal
volume from the two microphones, position potentiometer to the center.
NOTE: DISTANCE BETWEEN MICROPHONE AND BASE STATION SHOULD NOT
EXCEED 1,000’. THE RN-2 MIXER GAIN IS LIMITED THAT IT MAY NOT
SATISFACTORILY DRIVE AN AUDIO LINE OF MORE THAN 1000’.
