Installation:
1) The PEEX tX Transmitter is a sealed device with no assembly required.
2) The device can be mounted using a number of attachment points suitable for cable
ties. If mounted at height, the PEEX tX should have a certified safety harness
connected between permanent infrastructure and the safety loop point at the top of
the PEEX tX.
Figure 1. The PEEX PWR-100154 Transmitter Attachment Points and Mounting Plate
3) Mounting to typical 50mm tubing and other fixed infrastructure can be achieved by
attachment of a suitable clamp to the mounting plate at the rear of the PEEX tX. The
clamp should use countersunk M12 Hex socket bolts to ensure secure connection
and avoid obstructing with the connection of the clamp to tubing. Please make sure
that the M12 Hex socket bolts cannot enter further than 25mm into the mounting
plate.
4) The PEEX tX is water resistant to the level of IP54.
5) To maintain the water resistance rating, the unit should only be mounted vertically
with the cables entering from below. Indoor use allows the device to be mounted in
any orientation.
Use:
6) The PEEX tX is powered from a mains electricity input supply of 100-240 VAC, 50-
60Hz and draws 0.25amps RMS.
7) To connect the PEEX tX to the power supply a powerCon True 1 NAC3FX-W
connector must be fitted to a suitable mains cable capable of easily supporting a

maximum amperage of 6 amps. This can then be inserted into the left-side (viewed
from the front) of the powerCon NAC3PX socket located on the underside of the
PEEX tX.
8) If power is to be looped through the PEEX tX to another device, then a powerCon
True 1 NAC3MX-W connector must be fitted to a suitable mains cable capable of
easily supporting a maximum amperage of 6 amps. This can then be inserted into
the right-side of the powerCon NAC3PX socket located on the underside of the PEEX
tX.
Figure 2. The PEEX PWR-100154 Transmitter Cable Sockets
9) The PEEX tX is designed to be connected to the PEEXNet network via Ethernet and
will not function as a radio transmitter without connection to the PEEX muX
Multiplexer. Please see ‘PowerChord –PWR 100101 User Guide’ for further details.
10) To connect the PEEX tX to the PEEXNet network, RJ45 sockets are located adjacent
to the powerCon socket. Suitable Ethernet cable, capable of supporting 100base-T
networking, can be inserted into either one of these sockets.
11) If the Ethernet is to be looped through the PEEX tX to another device, then suitable
Ethernet cable, capable of supporting 100base-T networking, can be inserted into
the free socket.
12) The front panel of the PEEX tX Transmitter has a 4-segment LED display with four
buttons below it. The display shows either the value being entered for the device ID
or the distance value being entered. This is achieved by using the four buttons
below the display:
i) Mode / Esc –used to toggle between the two tX setup modes and escape the
manual setup mode.
ii) Up / Down –used to enter values for either device ID or distance.
iii) Enter –used to confirm a value entered for either device ID or distance.
iv) ID entry –used to manually enter a device ID for the PEEX tX. This is also
automatically assigned on connection with the PEEX muX.
v) Distance entry –used to enter a distance in meters that the device is located with
respect to the nearest stage speaker. This is used to create the early estimate of
audio delays required to properly synchronise the acoustic and digital sound sources.

Status:
13) The PEEX tX provides status information via the LEDs and the 4-segment LED display.
14) Green LED lights, adjacent to the two RJ45 Ethernet connectors, are visible from the
front side view of the PEEX tX and show network connection status and flash in
sympathy with data flow.
15) A green LED is located just above and to the right of the 4-segment display and
indicates that power is available to the device.
16) Two other LEDs are mounted above the display, but are not currently used.
17) All other statuses are only available via the PEEX muX Multiplexer –see separate
document.
Care:
18) To keep your PEEX tX clean, use a damp cloth to remove any marks and then dry
thoroughly. Do not immerse in water.
19) Regularly check the cable sockets to ensure that no debris has entered the sockets.
Use the attached rubber seals for each socket whenever they are not in use.
