The Cloud PM-SA range of Digital Paging Microphones have been

developed from the recently-introduced PM range, which were

themselves designed to improve on the well-known CDPM Series.

As well as being a simple-to-use and elegant paging mic, the PM-SA

models incorporate a digital sound store for pre-recorded messages.

These can be triggered either manually, or via external contacts from

third-party equipment, such as PIR sensors, timing systems, or similar.

The PM-SA models have a powerful range of options that make them

suitable for almost any situation, yet are easy to install and congure.

Two PM-SA models are available:

• PM4-SA – paging and messaging to up to four zones, with

internal storage for four messages and chimes

• PM8-SA – paging and messaging to up to eight zones, with

internal storage for eight messages and chimes

Spot Announcer messages are stored on a standard SD memory card,

and can be in the form of either WMA or MP3 les, at most common

sample and bit rates. Pre-announcement chimes are also stored on

the card in the same formats, and the unit may be congured to

precede paged and pre-recorded announcements with different

chimes.

An important feature of the PM-SA is its ability to store specic

messages (and chimes, if wished) as part of the PM’s zone group

feature. A zone group allows multiple zones to be selected for paging

or messaging with a single key press. When a message is programmed

as part of a group denition, the message may be triggered by an

external command, when it will be automatically broadcast in all

the zones forming that group. This opens up many possibilities for

automatic messaging, such as connecting the external trigger inputs

to third-party timers to automatically repeat messages at xed time

intervals, or to PIR sensors for security applications.

The PM-SA is designed to interface directly with recent Cloud

products - such as the DCM-1 - via the Cloud Digital Paging Interface,

which uses standard CAT-5 cable and RJ45 connectors. It is also

provided with an analogue interface, permitting it to be used with any

other audio system equipped with ‘short-to-ground’ paging access

for selecting the zone(s) to be paged. This includes the following

current* Cloud products:

• Z4II and Z8II Venue Mixers

• CX163 and CX263 Mixers

• 36/50 and 46/50 Integrated Mixer Ampliers

*Other, older Cloud products may also be compatible; please contact Cloud’s

Technical Department for advice, or visit www.cloud.co.uk.

The Digital Paging Interface may also be used to interconnect up

to 32 PMs and/or PM-SAs to permit paging from more than one

location, with a total allowable cable run of up 1 km. Different models

of PM and/or PM-SA may be intermixed on a single network. Overall

network connection to the audio system may be via either interface

method.

The PM-SA is directly compatible with the earlier Cloud CDPM

range. PM, PM-SA and CDPM microphones may be freely intermixed

on the Digital Paging Interface. It is also possible to congure a

PM-SA microphone to address only a subset of the available zones.
