1) CAN BUS Contacts
Data communication bus between the COMPACT matrix, the
COMPACT-E and CAN peripherals (ME-200C, MD-30C, NS-CAN).
To connect them it is recommended to use a shielded twisted pair
AWG24 cable. Follow figure 4 if the COMPACT-E unit is an
intermediate element of the CAN bus or follow figure 5 if it is an
end element.
ATTENTION: Configure external DIP switches 5 and 6 to indicate
the position on the CAN bus occupied by the COMPACT-E (end
element or intermediate element). To configure follow figure 10.
2) FAIL Contacts
Output relay used to indicate a system failure.
If the COM contact is linked to the NO contact, it indicates that there are
no faults or alarms in the system. If on the other hand, COM is linked to
NC, it indicates that the equipment is switched off or that alarms were
detected (figure 6).
Maximum DC charge current: 150mA
Maximum DC or AC peak charge voltage: 350V

3) OUTPUT Contacts CT 1, 2, 3, 4 and COM
The unit incorporates four output contacts referenced to a common contact
(COM).
This COM contact can be configured as floating reference or as GND of the
equipment (see section 4. CONFIGURATION, DIP switch 1 of SW1).
The functionality and standby state (NC/NO) are configured through the Call
Point software. They may be configured as general purpose contacts or in the
evacuation system as fault notification contacts, Emergency Mode indicator
activated...
To connect please follow figure 7.
4) GND Contacts
Ground contact (GND). To connect follow figures 8 or 9.
5) INPUT contacts CT 1 to 16
Input contacts. The functionality and de-energized state (NC/NO) are configured through the configuration software. They may
be configured as general purpose contacts or in the evacuation system as emergency mode activation contacts, activation of
the evacuation message...
If you wish, the system may monitor these contacts (short-circuit or open line detection).
The detection time of the activation pulse of the input contacts is configurable through the Call Point software (0-50-100-200-
300-400-500-1000-1500-2000 milliseconds).
To connect follow figure 8. If you wish to monitor the contact, follow figure 9.

6) EXTERNAL DIP SWITCHES
It allows configuring the occupied position in the CAN bus
(final element or intermediate element) and the CAN
address of the equipment:
CAN Bus position
Configure external DIP switches 5 and 6 to indicate the
position on the CAN bus occupied by the COMPACT-E (end
element or intermediate element). See figure 10.
CAN Address
Each COMPACT-E that is connected to the CAN bus must
have a different address. This DIP switches b0, b1, b2 and
b3 allows assigning this communication address.
Each COMPACT audio matrix may be expanded with a
maximum of 10 COMPACT-E units and if this were to
happen, then 10 different CAN addresses would be used.
Figure 11 shows the DIP switches b0, b1, b2 and b3
combinations to assign the CAN addresses for 1 through
10.
7) AUDIO LINK BUS
Audio bus expansion connector. It is used in the connection
between the COMPACT-E and the COMPACT or between
different COMPACT-E units.
To make the connection use a 34 way flat ribbon cable with
2x17, 2.54 mm IDC connectors When installing the cable be
careful to install the connectors in the same position and
side of the flat ribbon cable (see figure 17).
8) POWER SUPPLY 1
24 VDC Primary power input (see figure 12).
9) POWER SUPPLY 2
24 VDC Secondary power input (see figure 13). The power
supply inputs have been doubled; therefore, if required by
the safety standards, two independent power supplies may
be connected.

2.5 A Primary power fuse.
11) FUSE 2.
2.5 A Secondary power fuse.

5. CONNECTION OF PERIPHERALS TO THE CAN BUS
The COMPACT device communicates with the COMPACT-E units via a CAN bus. The data flow between the COMPACT equipment
and the COMPACT-E expansion units uses a baud rate of 500 kbit/s.
With the rest of CAN peripherals of the installation (MD-30C, ME-200C, NS-CAN ...) and with an internal speed adapter that the
COMPACT device has built-in, the transmission speed is 33.3 kbit/s. This lower speed makes it possible to reach greater distances in
the connection between the peripherals and the central one. The adapter
also allows galvanically isolating the central from the equipment of the
installation, protecting it from possible wiring problems in the installation
If a COMPACT-E unit matches other CAN peripherals (MD-30C, ME-200C,
NS-CAN…) on the same CAN bus, it is necessary to place an external CAN
speed adapter to match the transmission speed between devices (speed
adapter model CAN-AV). Figure 18 shows the detail of the connection
between the COMPACT-E unit and the CAN-AV speed adapter.
The attached table shows the transmission speed of the equipment:

5.1.Connection between the COMPACT and the COMPACT-E units
Use the AUDIO LINK BUS and the CAN BUS contacts to connect the COMPACT matrix to the COMPACT-E units.
For the connection of the CAN bus it is recommended to use a shielded twisted pair AWG24 cable.

5.2.Connection between COMPACT-E unit and CAN-AV speed adapter
The communication speed of the CAN bus of
the COMPACT-E device is 500 kbit/s. If a
COMPACT-E unit matches other CAN periph-
erals (MD-30C, ME-200C, NS-CAN…) on the
same CAN bus, it is necessary to place an
external CAN speed adapter to match the
transmission speed between devices (speed
adapter model CAN-AV). Figure 18 shows the
detail of the connection between the
COMPACT-E unit and the CAN-AV speed
adapter.

6. INSERTING THE CARDS
The COMPACT-E incorporates 10 slots capable of housing UMX-C16, UMX-2SA, UMX-2SB or UMX-MC6 cards. The UMX-C16, UMX-
2SA, UMX-MC6 and UMX-2SB cards occupy one slot and card UMX-2SB occupies 4 slots.
To insert a card proceed as follows (to insert the UMX-2SB card consult the specific manual for this model):
1) Disconnect the power supply to the unit (POWER SUPPLY 1 and POWER SUPPLY 2 strips).
2) Remove the rear blank plate for the slot where the card is to be inserted. All cards occupy one slot except model UMX-2SB
which occupies 4 slots (to insert the UMX-2SB consult the specific manual for this model).
3) Insert the card by fitting it into the slot guides and fasten it by means of the fastening screws.
4) Reconnect the power.
7. COMMISSIONING THE UNIT
Commissioning the unit requires sending of configurations to the COMPACT audio matrix whose CAN bus depends on the
COMPACT-E unit. To do this, you need a PC equipped with a network card and connected to the COMPACT matrix, either through a
switch, or directly through a network cable. The PC must have the CALL POINT software installed.
1. Insert the cards required by the installation in the COMPACT-E (see section 7).
2. Set the CAN address of the unit using the rear CAN ADDRESS DIP switches. See section 3.1. Power and control module, number
6) EXTERNAL DIP SWITCHES.
3. Make the connections between units.
4. Apply power to the units.
5. Via the Call Point software, configure the parameters of the COMPACT-E and the cards contained therein.
6. Send the configurations to the COMPACT unit that controls the COMPACT-E.

8. SYSTEM ALARMS
The unit incorporates several alarm systems that indicate that a fault has occurred in a component of the PA system.
GENERAL FAULT indicator light: Front yellow LED. Illuminates when the unit receives one or several alarms from the system or
when an alarm is generated by the unit itself.
SYSTEM FAULT indicator light: Front yellow LED. Illuminates when an internal error is detected.
Acoustic alarm indicator (buzzer): Acoustic indication that is generated by the unit when it receives an alarm. The acoustic
indication is a buzzing sound that lasts 10 seconds and is periodically repeated every 20 seconds.
This acoustic indication may be activated or deactivated through the configuration software.
If the acoustic indication is activated, it sounds each time an alarm is received.
The alarms may be silenced from the main COMPACT unit. To accomplish this:
1. View the alarms tab via the or keys.
2. Use the navigation keys /to position the cursor over one of the alarms and press OK.
3. Using the /keys, select the MUTE BUZZER option.
4. Press OK.
