Australian Monitor DigiPage Jr. Paging System

The Australian Monitor DigiPage Jr is a matrix switching system allowing any one of up to 8 remote paging microphones (DPJ88M) to page into any combination of up to 8 output zones over industry standard CAT-5 cable. The system also allows any one of up to 4 program inputs to be directed to any or all of the 8 output zones. An emergency input is also provided.

The DigiPage Jr matrix is an attractive, slim-line, 2RU steel cabinet, desk or 19" rack mounted. It includes inputs for each of the 8 remote DPJ88M microphone stations (line level signal and control) and a line level output to each of the 8 output zones. Also included are inputs for the 4 program sources (CD, tape, tuner etc) with associated level trim pots and an input for an emergency signal such as from an EWIS control panel or priority message system.

DPJ88M Paging Station & Microphone
Each DPJ88M microphone station includes 8 zone select buttons with associated zone status LEDs, a 'Zone Page' button, an 'All Page' button, a 'Clear' button and a 'System Busy' LED. Also included is a gooseneck microphone and microphone sensitivity control. A bass cut switch is located on each DPJ88M to reduce 'booming' in high noise areas if required. The DPJ88M is housed in an attractive and heavy-duty case and may be desk or wall mounted.

Operation
When a page is made, a pre-announce tone will sound in each of the output zones selected. Any program material playing in to the zone(s) selected will be ducked for the duration of the page. Microphone #1 has priority over Microphones #'s 2-8.

Connection
DigiPage Jr connects simply by Cat-5 cable. The Cat 5 carries the audio and control from the mics to the main DigiPage Jr unit. The DPJ88M microphones can be daisy chained for up to 200 metres.
