The LM-2 is an active input module with one microphone and
one stereo line input, which allows a microphone and a line
level audio source - such as a DJ mixer, laptop, MP3 player or
similar - to be connected to the 46-80 at a remote location.
The module also includes the functions of the RSL-6 Remote
Control Plate (see page 9), permitting control of zone music
level and source. A music ducking button activates the
46-80’s priority circuitry; when enabled, a microphone signal
from the LM-2 will reduce the music level in the zone. The
LM-2 connects to the 46-80’s FACILITY PORT, and thus will
generally be installed within Zone 1.
