Modules Output Modules Functionality The Power Vector mixer accepts Bogen signal-processing output modules, which offer a cost effective and con- venient way to add specific signal-processing capability into a system.When an output module is installed, the mix bus signal is automatically rerouted through the output module, whose capabilities further process the sig- nal before it is presented to the power mixer section. Up to 2 output modules can be installed in a Power Vector mixer using module

Connections Mute Control Each priority bus (High, Medium, and Low) can be externally activated. This allows priority buses of two or more Power Vector mixers to be linked together for system expansion purposes.A particular mute prior- ity can be externally forced by shorting that priority's bus terminal to the C terminal of the Mute Control (the C terminal is the system ground). Forcing the H priority bus this way will mute all modules except for modules set for priority level 1 (highest priorit
