This function can be applied to various usages such as

complete bi-amp with 2 PM-15S2s (page. 13), and 5.1ch multi-

channel with 3 PM-15S2s (page. 14, 15).

F.C.B.S. Connection with the PM-11S2

Unit

A multichannel system can be configured by connecting the

PM-15S2 units with a higher-grade PM-11S2 unit, using

F.C.B.S.

As higher-grade functions are provided with the PM-11S2

than with this unit, follow the connection conditions described

below for an F.C.B.S. connection between the PM-11S2 and

this unit.

• Limit the number of PM-11S2 units to one and that of the

PM-15S2 units to up to 3.

• Set the PM-11S2 unit as the ID 1 Master and the PM-15S2

units as one of the ID2–4 slave units.

For details on connections, see the connection examples on

pages 14 and 15. If the PM-15S2 for the front L/R channels

shown in the connection example is replaced with a PM-11S2,

the audio quality of the front channels could be improved (also

see the operation manual for the PM-11S2.)

To use the 5.1 multichannel system shown as a connection

example as a 2-channel stereo system, turn off the ID2 and

ID3 amplifiers. Thus, the PM-11S2 can be used alone.

F.C.B.S.

F.C.B.S. (Floating Control Bus System) is a communication

system that connects up to four PM-15S2s over a dedicated

bus line so as to enable synchronized operations amongst

them via 2-way data communications.

Prepare the correct number of portable audio connection

cables for the number of units to be connected. Any of the

following two types of connecting cables can be used.

Monaural miniplug ⇔ monaural miniplug

connecting cable

Stereo miniplug ⇔ stereo miniplug connecting

cable

Note:

Do not use connecting cables that contain resistance.

The figure below shows an example of four PM-15S2s

connected by F.C.B.S. The top unit is the master unit with ID

1 and controls the three slave units with ID 2~4. When the

master unit is operated, the input source, volume level, ATT

feature, display and tone control ON/OFF feature of the slave

units are operated in sync with the master unit.

To turn the power of multiple F.C.B.S.-connected units ON/OFF, switch the power ON in order of lowest to highest ID

number, and switch the power OFF in order of highest to lowest ID number.
