4. Настройка і ўстаноўка

4.1 Распакаванне

Carefully remove the AA120 from its packaging. Inspect the unit for any signs of damage that may have occurred during transit. Retain the packaging for future transport or storage.

4.2 Размяшчэнне

Месца amplifier in a location that allows for adequate ventilation. Avoid placing it near heat sources or in direct sunlight. Ensure the unit is on a stable, level surface. Do not obstruct the ventilation openings.

4.3 Падключэнне харчавання

Падключыце шнур харчавання пераменнага току, які ўваходзіць у камплект, да amplifier's power inlet and then to a grounded 120V AC, 60Hz power outlet. The unswitched outlet on the rear panel can provide power to other equipment, up to a maximum of 500W. If this outlet's breaker trips, press the 'Push Reset' button to restore power.

Падключэнне дынамікаў 4.4

The AA120 supports various speaker configurations. Connect your speakers to the 'Speaker Output 240W' terminal block. Ensure proper polarity and impedance matching.

  • 8 Ом: For direct connection to low-impedance speakers.
  • 25V, 70V, 100V: Для пастаяннага абtage distributed speaker systems. Connect the common (Com) terminal to the negative speaker wire and the appropriate voltage terminal (25V, 70V, or 100V) to the positive speaker wire.

Заўвага: Заўсёды забяспечвайце amplifier is powered off before making or changing speaker connections. Use Class 2 wiring for speaker connections.

4.5 Уваходныя злучэнні

The AA120 offers six input channels:

  • Inputs 1-5 (Balanced Terminal Blocks): These inputs accept either microphone or line-level signals. Connect balanced audio cables to the G (ground), - (negative), and + (positive) terminals.
  • Input 6 (Stereo RCA): This input is designed for stereo line-level sources such as CD players or media players. The stereo signal is summed to mono internally.

4.6 Канфігурацыя DIP-пераключальніка

The DIP switches on the rear panel allow for fine-tuning of input characteristics and other functions. Refer to the table below for their functions:

5. Інструкцыя па эксплуатацыі

5.1 Уключэнне/выключэнне

Каб уключыць amplifier, ensure all connections are secure, then press the power switch located on the front panel (not visible in rear panel image, but standard). To power off, press the switch again.

5.2 Рэгуляванне ўзроўняў уваходнага сігналу

Use the 'Input Trim' rotary controls on the rear panel for Inputs 1-5 to adjust the sensitivity of each input channel. This allows you to match the input level of your source device to the amplifier. For Input 6, adjust the source device's output level or use the VCA control if assigned.

5.3 Галоўны рэгулятар гучнасці

The master volume control (typically on the front panel, not shown in rear image) adjusts the overall output level of the amplifier. Start with the master volume at a low setting and gradually increase it to the desired listening level.

5.4 Mute Functions

The AA120 supports remote or VOX (Voice Operated Switch) mute capabilities. The 'Remote Mute' terminals allow for an external switch to mute the audio. The 'Mute Rev' DIP switches (1-7) allow you to reverse the mute logic for individual inputs, useful for paging systems where other audio is muted when a microphone is active.

5.5 Праца ў зоне 2

The 'Zone 2 Out' provides a separate audio output. The 'Zone 2 Level' control adjusts the output level for this zone. This can be used for a separate listening area or to feed another ampзадымнік.

5.6 Фільтр нізкіх частот

The low-cut filter (6 dB per octave at 400 Hz) can be engaged via the DIP switch. This filter is particularly useful when using paging horns, as it helps to reduce low-frequency content that can cause distortion or reduce intelligibility in such speakers.

6. Тэхнічнае абслугоўванне

6.1 Ачыстка

Каб ачысціць amplifier, disconnect it from the power source. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe down the exterior. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol sprays, as they may damage the finish or internal components.

6.2 Вентыляцыя

Periodically check that the ventilation openings are clear of dust and debris. Proper airflow is crucial for preventing overheating and ensuring the longevity of the ampзадымнік.

7. Выпраўленне непаладак

If you encounter issues with your AA120, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

  • Няма харчавання:
    • Ensure the power cord is securely connected to both the amplifier and a working AC outlet.
    • Check the main circuit breaker for your building.
    • If using the unswitched outlet, check its dedicated 'Outlet Breaker' and press 'Push Reset' if tripped.
  • Няма гуку:
    • Verify that speakers are correctly connected to the appropriate output terminals (Com, 8Ω, 25V, 70V, or 100V).
    • Check all input connections and ensure source devices are playing audio.
    • Ensure input trim controls and master volume are set to audible levels.
    • Check DIP switch settings for mute functions; ensure no inputs are inadvertently muted.
  • Скажоны гук:
    • Reduce input trim levels if the input signal is too strong.
    • Пераканайцеся, што імпеданс дынаміка адпавядае amplifier output (e.g., 8Ω speakers to 8Ω terminal).
    • Check speaker wiring for shorts or loose connections.

If the problem persists after attempting these troubleshooting steps, contact Atlas Sound customer support for assistance.
