Mounting the Z Series

The Z Series can be surface mounted, in-wall flush mounted, or rack mounted. Before mounting the Z Series, there are several factors to take into consideration. Select the best area for wiring infrastructure such as speaker wire, AC mains power, paging cable and background audio source cables. Placement of the Z Series is also critical when using the Bluetooth® audio streaming feature. The Z Series should be placed within 50ft of the paired audio source. Powering the Z Series requires use of the included external power supply. It is suggested to place the Z Series within 6ft of a 120V AC outlet. If this is not possible, the power supply wire for the 24VDC output can be extended up to 50ft. Note: This does not void the warranty as it is the low voltage wire that is being extended. Note: Pay attention to the DCV polarity when reconnecting the removable Phoenix connector.

Wire Routing

The I/O Backbox wall mounting can be secured by applying screws to a surface, in-wall, or to a 2-gang electrical box. Wiring into the Z Series can be done via rear 2-gang opening of the I/O Backbox or via electrical conduit ^3/4 and ^1/2 . Knockouts are located on the top and bottom of the I/O Backbox. For wiring the Inputs and Outputs see "Wiring the Z Series I/O Backbox".

Default Ship Mode, Factory Presets, and SHS EQ

The Z Series can store 10 different programs that are called Presets. The Z Series is shipped with the Factory Preset active. This preset is designed to be used in many general applications. For a detailed list of functions of the other presets visit atlasied.com. Note: Presets are subject to change, refer to atlasied.com for up to date information and detailed application guides.

Factory Default Mode

FacDefaultV1.2 - Good general masking curve applicable to situations where 13 octave tuning will not be done. Use in Open ceilings and above ceiling grids. Note: Zones 3 and 4 apply to the Z4 only.

• Master Levels for Zones 1, 2, 3, 4 are set to -10 (Level adjustment range is 0 to -40 with 0 being the maximin level).
- Masking Levels for Zones 1, 2, 3, 4 are set to -20.
- Enhance Privacy Level is set to +6dB. Refer to Enhanced Privacy Mode for details on this feature.
- Masking EQ is fixed with a general EQ curve to meet many open and above ceiling masking applications. In many installations all that is needed is level adjustment.
- Paging Set to (Line) Input and the Paging Levels for Zones 1, 2, 3, 4 are set to -10.
• Music Levels for Zones 1, 2, 3, 4 are set to -10. Note: Music Levels apply to both Bluetooth® Streaming and AUX 3.5mm input.
• Music Input Sensitivity is set to 775mV.

Other Presets Shipped with the Z Series

Note: The level settings for the Presets listed below are the same as the Factory Default Preset.

  • M1000V1.3 - Use with the M1000 in above ceiling (plenum) masking.
  • M1000ROpClngV1.3 - Use with the M1000R-W in open ceilings with no grid.
  • UnderFLRV1.2 - Use with the M1000 or M2000-LP for under floor masking applications. A 2W tap required.
  • FAP33TABV1.2 - Use in direct field, down firing masking using the FAP33T-W. Wiring of the 2 masking channels must be in an A/B configuration, consult factory for details.
  • FAP40TABV1.2 - Use in direct field, down firing masking using the FAP40T. Wiring of the 2 masking channels must be in an A/B configuration, consult factory for details.
  • FAPSHSABV1.3 - Use in direct field, down firing masking using the SHS-6T2. Wiring of the 2 masking channels must be in an A/B configuration, consult factory for details.

SHS EQ

Some speakers require unique EQ processing to maximize their performance. This does not mean the speaker will not function without the specific EQ settings. When using an SHS speaker with a Z2 / Z4 for background audio or paging applications, use the custom EQ setting. AtlasLED has made a simple SHS EQ On or Off setting for Paging or Music. This setting is located in the navigation tree. When On, this SHS EQ will be applied to all zones. The Music & Paging EQ are still available for room tuning.

Note: This feature only works with firmware v1.64 or higher and software v1.10 or higher.

Owner's Manual

Understanding Unique Menu Tree Features

Masking & Privacy Volume Adjust - Each Zone has its own Masking and Speech Privacy Enhancement adjustments. These are separate adjustments but are relative to each other.

  1. Masking Level Zone 1 - This adjusts the Level of Sound Masking only in Zone 1. Note: This adjustment is Pre or Before the Master Zone Level 1.
  2. Privacy Level - This feature is designed to temporarily change the masking level. This feature is ideal to use in a medical office, conference room, or any area that needs a more secure speech environment to prevent conversations from being overheard. When engaged, the Level at Zone 1 output will increase by the Privacy level entered. In most cases 6dB is common. This Privacy fader level is "relative" to the Zone fader level and is not active regardless of the position of the fader until the Speech Privacy Enhancement ports "G" and "Engage" are shorted together or the Z-SIGN or App activate it. Refer to their specific manuals for details. Note: The Privacy Enhancement does not change the Music (BT / AUX) or Paging (Mic / Line levels). We recommend following the Privacy Enhancement examples listed on the web site to understand the masking signal flow and gain structure.

Mic & Phantom Adjust (Mic or Line Gain Select) - In this section the Balanced input can be configured to be at Mic or Line Level. If Mic mode is selected you can also turn on the Phantom 24vDC power if required.

Mic Feedback Filter Adjust - If the Balanced input is selected to Mic mode and you are experiencing feedback while paging, the Z2 / Z4 has a specialized filter to reduce or eliminate the feedback. Navigate to On / Off, select On, then adjust the frequency Up or Down until the feedback is gone. This notch filter frequency adjustment range is 200Hz to 6KHz with the level being fixed at -20dB cut with a Q14 (0.1 BW)

System Commissioning Ramp (SCR) - Each Zone has it is own SCR On / Off function and they operate independently from each other. When turned on, the SCR function last for 14 days with each day representing 1dB of change. When the SCR is turned On, the display will show number 14 representing the numbers of SCR days left. The Masking Level will be down -14dB from the set Masking Level. Note: The SCR is a count down timer that displays the number of days left. When it gets to 0 days, the SCR will automatically turn Off. At this point the Masking level is where the Masking fader is set to. The clock must be set for the SCR to function.

Example: If the Masking A Level is -10dB and you select 14 Days for the ramping to take place, then turn ON the SCR, the Masking A Level is -24dB. The next day the SCR changes to 13 Days and the Masking A output level increases by 1dB making the Masking level -23dB. This will continue until the SCR days reach 0 Days and the Masking A level reaches -10dB. The SCR will turn OFF automatically.

Wireless Communication Enable / Disable - From October 2020, the Z Series firmware has been updated to add an Enable / Disable function for the Bluetooth® music streaming and UHF Z-SIGN operation. When either the Bluetooth® or UHF is disabled, there will be no wireless signal present. This feature applies to units with BT-Flash update V3.3 & Z Series FW V2.02 revisions. The firmware revision listed on the Z Series display will show FW V2.02. If it is FW V2.00 or earlier, and this feature is required for your application, contact Tech Support at www.AtlasIED.com/support

To change the default setting (Bluetooth = ON; UHF = ON), navigate below the Advanced Settings to menu display #5 (see below.) Press Set / Change > and use Up / Down navigation to select ON / OFF for Bluetooth® or UHF. Make sure to press Enter after making the ON / OFF change to confirm and save the setting.

The display #3 below reflects "Status = Wireless Disabled" when the UHF is set to OFF, and the Z-SIGN Pairing Menu is removed from the Menu Tree. The default Bluetooth® Music menu #2 will display #4 "Bluetooth Disabled" when Bluetooth® is set to OFF, as shown below.

The new feature is individually switched so Z-SIGNs can still be used when Bluetooth® Music is disabled (display #6). When UHF is enabled and a Z-SIGN is paired, the Z-SIGN can still communicate (BLE) with the Z Series mobile app to relay at UHF frequency to the main Z Series core. This can be helpful to the installer for setting up zones, then switched off, if desired, after install.

Owner's Manual

Z Series Fire Mute GPI Priority Override Update FW V2.23

The Z Series firmware has been updated to add a configurable Emergency Fire feature that can be activated by the Enhanced Privacy "GPI" Contact Closure Euro connector. The default GPI function is Enhanced Privacy (EHP) and when contacts are closed, the system will ramp up the masking level, and when contacts are open, ramp back down. A mobile device App and Z Sign can also wirelessly activate the Enhanced Privacy feature. When the new FW V2.23 firmware is installed, the GPI port can be set to activate either Enhanced Privacy (default) or Fire Mute Override mode. When Fire Mute Ovrride mode is set ON, the Masking will Mute whenever the GPI is shorted, limiting the Enhanced Privacy activation to wireless only and freeing up the GPI Contact Closure port for a fire system connection. In addition, the Fire Mute Override has 2 individually selectable ON or OFF settings to mute the BT & 3.5mm input, and the Mic/Line input. For example, this allows settings that when activated, could mute the Music and Masking leaving the Mic/Line input unmuted for an Emergency message. When the system is activated in Fire Mute Override Mode, the Home Screen will display flashing: Status= Fire Mute Override until the activation GPI contacts are open, the system status then returns to where it was prior to the Fire Mute Override. The Bluetooth Home Screen will do the same if playing music when a Fire Mute Ovrride mode activates.

A. ASP-MG2240S - The Enhanced Privacy In Use Wired Sign is used to inform the public that a Sound Masking system is in use for their security while having a private conversation. This wired privacy sign is designed to be integrated with the Z Series. The ASP-MG2240S is a 10V DC voltage powered Acrylic LED Diffusion type sign featuring a multi-functional mount with a polished aluminum finish. The ASP-MG2240S can be mounted to a wall or to a single gang electrical box. The mounting hardware is included to support most installation requirements.
B. WPD-SWCC - A décor style wall plate featuring a push button switch that activates/deactivates a hard latch contact closure. This product is designed to be used with compatible AtlasLED products that are designed to be remotely activated. The unit is constructed of durable ABS material and includes a red LED system status indicator as well as a removable label guard for easy and clean designation of switch function. The unit has a four-conductor interface connection designed to work with the included Phoenix style connector. This unit can function in remote activation scenarios up to 200 feet from the controlled unit using 22-gauge wire.
C. Z-SIGN - The AtlasLED Z-SIGN Enhanced Privacy Sign is used to inform the public that a Sound Masking system is in use for their security while having a private conversation. This wireless privacy sign is designed to be integrated with the AtlasLED Z Series High Definition Acoustical Systems. The Z Series sign works in conjunction with models Z2-B & Z4-B base units. The Z-SIGN is a wireless transceiver that can be used to activate the System's Enhanced Speech Privacy Mode and illuminate indicating the room is secure. The Z-SIGN utilizes 915MHz wireless technology for communication to the Z2 & Z4 base units. This technology assures communication from the sign to the base unit through walls and up to 100ft apart. The Z-SIGN also utilizes BLE ^ technology for the Z-SIGN to communicate to a phone or tablet via iOS ^ or Android ^ App. This App allows for the customer to engage Speech Privacy Enhancement, plus it allows for the installer to adjust the zone levels remotely during system setup. If using an App, the Z Series features an Enhanced Speech Privacy switch to allow for the sign to set on a desk. The Z-SIGN utilizes high quality rechargeable batteries to assure maximum usage between charges. The Z-SIGN can also be powered utilizing the included power supply. Refer to the Z-SIGN data sheet for more information.

Z Series

Owner's Manual

D. Z Series App for iOS ^® or Android ^® - The Z Series App can be used to engage the Z2 or Z4 into the Enhanced Speech Privacy Mode. It can also be used to remotely adjust music, paging and masking levels per zone. Each input can be tuned to meet each zone's acoustical requirements. Note: The level and tuning section of the Z Series App is password protected.

  • The App uses the smartphone Bluetooth ^ BLE ^ technology to connect to the Z2 / Z4 Base unit. The distance of the Bluetooth ^ transmission is around 100 ft line of site. To avoid dropouts, it is recommended to be in the same room as the Z2 / Z4 base units and stay within 50ft.
  • If longer distance is required a Z-SIGN can be used to act as a relay-bridge between the phone App and the Z2 / Z4 base units. The phone connects to the Z-SIGN via Bluetooth ^ BLE ^ and the Z-SIGN transmits the commands to and from the Z2 / Z4 Base units via UHF frequency. The UHF allows for much greater transmission distances compared to Bluetooth ^ . It is common to get command transmission distances over 100 ft but will vary depending on the building construction and number of walls it has to go through.

Owner's Manual

Turning on the Z Series

Press and hold (3 sec) Enter on the Navigation control button and the unit will boot up. Don't be alarmed if you are hearing masking present at the speakers. The Masking Level is set low to allow walking the area to see if all the speakers are functioning. Levels can be adjusted via the Navigation controls. From here select a different preset and change functions. Note: Settings are automatically saved when powering off or if there is a Power Failure.

Streaming Audio and Bluetooth® Paring

Streaming music from an audio device using Bluetooth ^® is a convenient way to run background audio without having wires in the way. However, there are limitations to Bluetooth ^® technology. Bluetooth ^® operates best when the audio device and the Z Series base unit are close to each other. Line of sight is always best. Bluetooth ^® can go through a wall as long as the audio device and base unit are very close to each other, but this practice is not recommended. Note: Bluetooth ^® streaming music can only be connected to Z Series base unit. See diagram below.

Pairing an Audio Device to the Z Series

A. Make sure Bluetooth ^® is active on the audio device. Make sure the Bluetooth ^® Device and discovery page is open.
B. On the Z Series Home screen the model and identification code of the unit will appear. Remember this because it will appear in the audio device Bluetooth® list while pairing.
C. For illustration purposes we are pairing to a Model Z4 with an ID of 5267. On the Z4, navigate to the Bluetooth® Music screen. Select the Right arrow and the window will change to "Pairing...". Find AtlasIED Z4-5267 on the Bluetooth® discovery section of the audio device. Select it to connect. Note: Each time a new Z Series unit is used, the audio device will have to be paired to the specific Z Series unit. Use the Model Number and Unit ID Number of the Z Series unit to determine which unit to pair with.
D. Remember the audio level of the music from the Z Series works in conjunction with the Bluetooth ^® level setting in the audio device.

E. The Z Series Home screen will display the name of the audio device on the display while streaming. The audio device can also be disconnected from the Home screen.

NOTES:
1. Power level is measured as 1Hz Sine wave signal burst of 20 cycles (20mS) at 1% THD+N, followed by 480 cycles of a 1kHz sine wave at 10% of the max power, 30W per zone @ 140Ω load. Other power measurements are available upon requests.
2. Average Power is defined as Pink Noise input signal applied to achieve 1/4 of the power rating.
3. Max Power is defined as 1 KHz input signal applied to achieve the maximum power output before clipping into a specified load.
4. BTU is calculated by the AC Mains Power consumed minus the total power output measured at the specified load and condition, multiplied by 3.412. Example: 785 Watts from the AC Source - 600 Watts Total Output power = 185 x 3.412 = 631 BTU
