TSD-ML11 - Hand blender Atlas Sound - Free user manual and instructions

USER MANUAL TSD-ML11 Atlas Sound

The TSD-ML11 is a high headroom, low noise mic preamp that allows your 'money channel' to have the highest performance possible. Use as a standalone preamp or in conference room systems, board meetings, courtrooms, council chambers, and public forums system that need mute and push to talk microphone functions.

The TSD-ML11 features switchable phantom power for powering condenser microphones and has four EQ cut filters centered at common frequencies to eliminate feedback and control voice shaping. The variable mic preamp helps further eliminate noise for quiet operation as well as reduces unwanted coloration and changes in tonality and a 12dB @ 125Hz high pass filter is available on each mic input to minimize bass rumble and low frequency feedback in the system and ensure focus and clarity stays on voice sound spectrum. An output limiter/compressor is also included for system protection to avoid clipping and eliminate distortion. Mic Mute and Mic On control allows microphones in the system to be push-to-talk enabled or muted for speaker priority.

The TSD-MIX41 is part of a full line of AtlasIED Time Saving Devices. These compact (1.5" x 4" x 2.75") units are designed to solve some of the common audio system problems in the easiest and in the most efficient and cost-effective way. All models are made from high quality components and include removable individual I/O connectors for quick and precise wiring, separate ground terminals for all I/Os assuring secured connections, and removable level controls that can be replaced with tamper-proof security covers. The TSDs are highly efficient and meet Energy Star™ standards as one 24V DC power supply (available separately) can power multiple Atlas Time Saving Devices.

Front Panel Description

1. Input Level Control - Adjusts the gain of the input signal. Turn clockwise to increase the signal level and counter-clockwise to decrease it. Note: The Input Level Control knob can be removed and replaced with a supplied security cover to prevent unauthorized adjustment.
2. Output Level Control - Adjusts the gain of the output signal. Turn clockwise to increase the signal level and counter-clockwise to decrease it. Note: The Output Level Control knobs can be removed and replaced with a supplied security cover to prevent unauthorized adjustment.
3. Power LED - Illuminates Blue when 24VDC is present.
4. Input Peak LED - Illuminates Red when the input signal reaches 3dBV below when signal clipping will occur. Occasional flashing is normal but if this indicator is continuously On, then reduce the input level using the input level controls on the front panel. There is an LED for each input channel.
5. Signal LED - Illuminates Green when the input signal strength reaches 25mV to verify a signal path. Note: The LED will not illuminate if the output Level is turned Off.
6. Limiter LED - Illuminates Red when input signal is being limited or clipped. Adjustment of the Limiter feature should be done after the input gain have been properly set. The input should be adjusted so the Input Peak LED flashes on signal peaks and then the Output Limiter control can be set so this LED flashes to indicate that the limiter circuit is active.

Rear Panel Description

TSD Input/Output connections are removable for easy system wiring. The connector has a 3.5mm pitch between pins.

1. DC Power Input - Each TSD that requires DC power comes with a 2 position connector for an external 24VDC power supply (sold separately). Because of the low power consumption, a single external power supply may power more than one TSD. Refer to the current requirements in milliamps to match with the appropriate power supply. Note: It is acceptable to exceed the current of the TSDs but NOT safe to use a power supply that is below the current requirement of the device.
2. Balanced Mic/Line Input - Connects to balanced line or mic level sources. For gain or source input type selection, refer to the "Dip Switch Function Identification" chart. Note: Unbalanced line inputs can be inserted with proper wire configuration by connecting the (G) and (-) terminals together.
3. Balanced Mic/Line Output - Provides output for connection to balanced mic/ line level devices. Note: Unbalanced line leveldevices can be used with proper wire configuration by connecting the (G) and (-) terminals together.
4. Input Mute - A contact closure across these terminals will mute the microphone so there will be no output from the TSD-ML11. The contact closure can be either momentary or latching type.
5. Input On - Works when Dipswitch #1 in the Off position. A contact closure across these terminals will activate the output of the TSD-ML11. Use for remote activation of a microphone.
6. Output Limiter Control - Limiter function sets output level peaks. Rotate clockwise to reduce the overall output levels by increasing the sensitivity of the input. Rotate counter-clockwise to increase the output with higher signal peaks. The Limiter LED on the front panel indicates when limiter is in use. Note: The control knob can be removed and replaced with a supplied security cover to prevent unauthorized adjustment.
7. Cable Management Retainer Points - Each TSD includes two cable retainer straps for securing the included cable management retainers. Remove one of the rear panel screws, align the panel hole with a retainer and firmly tighten the screws.

Switch Position

• DIP SW # 1 - When in the up position, a contact closure across the input will turn the Mic or Line source on. When in the down position, the Input will defeat the Remote On function #5.
• DIP SW # 2 - 24VDC Phantom Power applies power for condenser mic operation. Down position is On.

- DIP SW #3 - Low Cut Filter engages at 125Hz with a roll off rate of 12dB per octave. This filter operates either in the Line or Mic mode and is available on each input. Ideal for vocal microphones to reduce low frequency energy and to increase intelligibility. Down position is On.

• DIP SW # 4 - Input Mic or Line Select for input gain selection. Up position is Line, down position is Microphone.
• DIP SW # 5 - Output Mic or Line Select for output gain selection. Up position is Line, down position is Microphone.
• DIP SW #6,7,8,9 - A cut filter of 12dB per octave is available at four frequencies- 250Hz, 1kHz, 2.5kHz, 6.3kHz- from these respective dip switches. Use these filters to remove feedback to improve system stability and for tone shaping. Down position is On.

Mounting

Listed below are the ways to mount the TSD and the optional accessories that can be purchased.

1. Velcro™ - Each unit includes two 2" x 2" pieces of industrial-grade Velcro™ with adhesive backing to adhere to any flat surface. Clean all surfaces before applying the adhesive side of the Velcro™.

1. Multi Mount Plate - Each TSD includes a versatile multi-position mounting plate. This plate allows the TSD to be mounted to any surface; but is ideal for use with rear rack rails or side rack hat channels. Use the included M3 x 4mm screws to install the plate on the TSD. Note: Only use the included M3 x 4mm screws as other screws may be too long and will cause internal damage to the TSD. The multi-position mounting plate is a new addition being included with TSDs. If the TSD being used did not include the mounting plate, contact AtlasIED customer service at 1-800-876-3333.
