Radio Systems Millenium-A ConsolePage 6Installation/Wiring/Operation1.1Console PlacementBecause neither ventilation, or rear access is required, the console may be mounted on any sturdy surface. Openingthe lid provides access to all electronics, internal controls and wiring points.After placing the console, open the lid and mark the cable access slots on the chassis bottom on the table surface.Remove the console and cut the slots with a saber saw. The console may then be permanently mounted with two #10sheet metal screws inserted through the two holes provided in the front of the chassis’ bottom.1.2Opening the ConsoleA “T”-shaped lifter is provided by the factory to open the console.This lifter can be inserted in any fader slot, angled and used to raise the lid. Once the lid is opened, the two hinges arepulled forward to lock the lid open.To close the lid, push the hinges in to release the locks, while holding the lid up with the “T” lifter, and gently lower theconsole.The external lifter discourages unauthorized access to console electronics.1.3Power Supply1.3.1InstallationAll console operating voltages are provided by the external power supply which connects to the console via a multiconductor cable. A ten foot length is provided as standard equipment. Longer lengths, up to 20 feet, are available fromthe factory.To install the cable, remove the top cover of the power supply and insert the end of the cable with the large solder lugthrough the rectangular cut out in the power supply back panel. Plug the connector into the circuit board and secure thesolder lug to the ground stud provided on the inside rear panel. After replacing the top cover, the supply may be hungfrom the key-hold slots in the cover, placed on the shelf or the floor, or rack mounted with the optional rack adapter frontpanel.To connect the console end of the power supply cable, pass the other end of the cable (with the smaller ground lug)through the rectangular hole on the center right-hand-side of the console base. Screw the ground lug under the mounting screw on the right front hand side of the Output Board. Plug the 10 position connector into J24 and the 4 positionconnector into J26(Ouput Board v.2: Plug the 10 position connector into J6 and the 4 position connector into J8).Takeextreme care to plug these connectors in with the correct orientation - locking tab to loacking tab (with cables existingtowards the right hand side) as it is possible to plug them in backwards.A grounding stud is provided on the rear of the power supply. Console grounds reach a common point at the power supply. To minimize RFI and potential ground loop problems, the console should only be connected to station ground at thisone ground stud.In intense RF environments, or if you experience any RFI problems, consult RFI suppression in the Troubleshooting andTheory of Operation Section for detailed information.1.3.2ConfigurationThe power supply houses a switch-mode module and an interface and indicator board. This provides 15 volts for audiocircuitry and 7.5 for control circuits.Front panel LED’s show the status of both 15 volt modules and the 7.5 voltages derived from the first module. Fuseholders are front panel mounted housing a 2 amp fuse for the first module and a one amp fuse for the second.
Radio Systems Millenium-A Console1.4Wiring Access Layout1.4.1ConnectorsPage 7Millenium Analog Consoles can be ordered with RJ-45 female connectors, pinned out to the StudioHub standard, orwith 5-pin removable barrier strip connectors (quick connector).1.4.2InputsAll audio inputs and audio patch points wire to the Six Channel Audio Board(s) on the base of the console. One board isutilized for every 6 channel positions. Audio inputs are stereo and balanced. The left and right channels of one input arewired to a single connector. Interstage channel audio patch points are unbalanced. These loop-thru inputs and outputsfor each channel are accessible on a single 5 pin quick connector. On RJ-45 version consoles only, there is also a 3-pinpost-fader patch point.Consult the Six Channel Audio Board Section of this manual for detailed information on input and patch point wiring andlevel attenuation.1.4.3OutputsAll program outputs are balanced and appear on connectors on the Output Board.Also mounted on this board are connectors for external monitor inputs, monitor sends, talk back, timer reset, cue audio,and control sends.Consult the Output Board Section of the manual for detailed information on output and control wiring and level calibrations.1.4.4ControlThe front panel mounted Six Channel Control Board houses one 15 pin D connector for each remote channel control.Consult the Six Channel Control Board Section of this manual for detailed information on control remote functions andprogramming options.Consult the Interface Options and Accessories Section of this manual for detailed information on the optional interfacecard applications, wiring and function.1.4.5Wiring Quick Connectors (5-Pin Connector Console Version)Audio input and output connections to the console are made via 5-pin connectors. These connectors may be unpluggedfrom the circuit board to facilitate wiring or servicing.StudioHub wiring harnesses are available from Radio Systems which bring all input and output connections to convenient connection blocks outside the console. Consult the factory for literature.1.4.6Wiring RJ-45 Connectors (RJ-45 Connector Console Version)Use standard TIA 568B RJ-45 STP patch cords or 22 AWG shielded wire for audio connections. The cable should bestripped so that the insulation comes close to, but does not enter the connector.StudioHub wiring harnesses are available from Radio Systems which bring all input and output connections to convenient connection blocks outside the console. Consult the factory for literature.1.5OperationThe Millenium Consoles have been designed to offer the greatest combination of user flexibility and operating ease. Obviously, the console should be installed and operated in accordance with station format, personnel habits and engineering principles.The following sections suggest some operational possibilities which were considered in the console design.
Radio Systems Millenium-A Console1.5.1Page 8Input AssignmentTraditionally, commonly used inputs are assigned to input “A”. This gives the operator quick assurance of proper inputselection.1.5.2Mic UseMic channels should always be activated with the slider down, and then potted up to avoid a sudden “room rush” ofbackground sound.Cue speaker muting is only provided when a mixing channel is turned “on”. Therefore, feedback can occur between thecue speaker or the monitor speakers (if cue monitoring is selected) and a mic input if the mic channel is placed in cue.To avoid this possibility, remove the cue inhibit jumpers on the section of the Six Channel Control Board associated withthe mic channel. This will prevent a mic channel from entering the cue mode and possibly cuing feedback. Consult theSix Channel Control Board Section for details on programming information.1.5.3Cue CircuitryUnless disallowed by jumper removal, all selected inputs maybe placed on the cue bus by depressing the cue button,located above the fader. Refer to Section 2.2 for additional information.The cue signal is monitored by the cue speaker, and level adjusted by the front panel cue level control. The cue speakeris muted by any input that is turned “on” and that was pre-selected during installation to activate the Mute 1 control bus.The internal cue speaker may be disconnected and a remote speaker connected in its place. Consult the Output BoardSection for detailed information on wiring.1.5.4Output RoutingEach mixing channel can be routed to any combination of program (PGM), audition (AUD), and tel (TEL) mix buses.The program and audition buses provide identical stereo performance allowing the audition output to be used as a backup to the program bus, as a separate program bus, or to preview or record material. The TEL bus is a monaural.1.5.5Mix-MinusTalk show hybrid telephone patches frequently require a return feed to the caller that does not contain his own voice (mixminus). To accomplish this, the host should be routed to PGM and TEL and the caller to PGM only. The TEL bus shouldthen be fed back to the telephone hybrid and program audio used to feed the air chain. To prevent feedback in this application, the studio monitor speakers should not be used.If a pre ON/OFF buttons feed of the talk bus is desired, whereas talk audio joins the bus when the channel is on or off,a modification can be made to the 6-channel control board. See technote 148 for details. This type of operation hasalso been referred to as the creation of a “Record Bus”.1.5.6MonitorThe monitor input select switches on the right hand side of the console allow monitoring of PGM, AUD, TEL, cue andfour external stereo inputs which are common to the monitor and headphone circuitry. All monitor outputs follow theseswitches. Level adjustment for the control room monitor output is provided on the front panel. In addition, the controlroom monitor output is dimmed to an level which has been preset by a trimmer on the Output Board by the Mute 1 control bus. A studio monitor output which is muted by the Mute 2 bus, and an unmuted monitor output is also provided. Inaddition, a prefader, unmuted monitor output is available.1.5.7HeadphoneThe headphone input select switches on the right hand side of the console allow monitoring of program, audition, tel, cueand four external stereo inputs which are common to the headphone and monitor circuitry. All headphone outputs followthese switches. Level adjustment and connection for the operator’s headphones are provided on the front panel. In ad.

One meter is dedicated to the TEL output, while the remaining twoare selected by a front panel switch to display either PGM or AUD outputs. The peak LEDs in the meters also follow theVU meter select switch.1.5.9Remote ControlThe Millenium Consoles provide extensive remote control using a 15-pin D connector located at each mixing channel.Each channel has the capability to remote start almost any source. In addition, each channel provides inputs for remotecontrol of channel on/off and ready lamp illumination.Sophisticated control interface is also accommodated with the use of the optional interface card (RS Part# 11022). SeeSection 2.2.9 and Illustration E-1 for additional information.1.5.10Eight Position SwitcherEight accessory switches are provided on the right-hand side of the console for user control of external equipment or theoptional Four Source Expander or Intercom Accessory boards. These switches and their associated LED indicators canbe wired directly to external equipment using two 15-pin D connectors mounted on the underside of the monitor controlboard. Consult Illustration B-3 for more details.

This card sends DC control voltages to the SixChannel Audio Board that:Select A/B InputsSet output bus and cue routingSet input level attenuationActivate muting busesActivate timer reset busThis information is conveyed by a 16 conductor ribbon cables; one cable for every mixing channel.Eighteen programming straps also reside on this board at each channel position and are used to set all unique channeland input board functions.The board also includes a 15-pin remote control connector for each channel providing user access to all remote andchannel functions.Programming options available for each channel include:Remote Control Options – by channelRemote Control Options – by inputMuting Buses – by inputTimer Reset – by inputCue Options- by channelCue Options – by inputOff (ready) lamp control operations – by input2.2Function Programming2.2.1Channel Power-Up ModeIt is sometimes desirable that certain channels ‘power up” in pre-set logic states. A common application for this feature isthat channel(s) associated with an automation system intended to run unattended, be set to power up with the channelON, and the correct input (e.g. A) and output bus (e.g. PGM) selected.To set a channel to always power up in a specific pre-set mode - take the following steps:1. Set the channel’s buttons in the desired INPUT, OUTPUT(S) and CUE modes2. (For power up in the ON mode) - press and hold the ON switch for 5 seconds until the ON lamp blinks3. (For power up in the OFF mode) - press and hold the OFF switch for 5 seconds until the OFF lamp blinks4. Repeat this procedure on each channel where a special power-up mode is desired5. Whenever the console power is re-cycled for any reason, these/this channel will power-up in its pre-setmodeNotes:ON or OFF lamps blink and then extinguish to indicate that the programming is storedWhen programming the ON function, the OFF lamp may also blink depending on the remote control wiring/configurationof the OFF lamp)The default power-up mode is Input A / PGM / no CUE / Channel OFFFader position will not be memorized of changed, so faders must be left at standard operating levelIt is still highly recommended that a good quality UPS of at least 1.5 KVA be installed prior to the console power supplyto provide temporary back-up power as well as power line filtering
Radio Systems Millenium-A Console2.2.2Page 13Remote Control Options – by ChannelFader Start – The channel may be programmed to automatically turn on whenever the fader is brought out of the detent(cue) position. All programmed channel on functions (e.g. remote starts or timer reset) will activate at this time.Note that a special order fader with detent (RS Part # P&G) is required for this option.Insert jumper A to activate.Default is no jumper; no fader start2.2.3Remote Control Options – by Input2.2.3.1Pulse/Holding Remote ControlInsertion of these jumpers determine whether the remote control pins on the remote control connector pulse to groundwhen the channel is turned on, or remain at ground potential for the duration of the channel ON state.Pulse mode is generally used for cart machine and CD player control. Holding mode is generally selected for reel-toreel or turntable control.Insert jumper H for input A – holding mode.Default is no jumper; pulse mode.Insert jumper C for input B – holding mode.Default is no jumper; pulse mode.2.2.3.2Send Through of Remote On/Off CommandsInstallation of these optional jumpers will cause channel on/off commands which were initiated remotely (i.e. sent to thechannel via remote connector pins 1, 2, 5, or 12) to, in turn, create remote on/off output pulses (i.e. send remote controlcommands to external equipment via remote connector pins 3, 4, 7, or 11). Normally, you would not want these remotechannel commands to be “sent through”, thereby creating a new command and potentially retriggering the remote devicevia a false echo of the original command. This situation would apply when a remote device is wired to both controland be controlled by an input channel; typically the case with a di
