Open packaging and check whether the equipment has experienced any damage during transportation. If the equipment is damaged, please inform your reseller immediately. It is recommended that you save all packaging materials for future transportation use. Do not transport the equipment without an outer package, to avoid damage to the equipment. Amplifer Power cord Rubber feet User manual 0.775 V BRIDGE MONO 0.775 V BRIDGE MONO 45 mm 290 mm 483 mm Cold air is sucked through the ventilation hole in the front panel and the heat is taken out from the rear panel. In order to ensure good heat dissipation, please use the equipment in an environment of 0°C~40°C and ensure that the front and rear panels are unobstructed for clear airflow. If the temperature exceeds 85 degrees, the output voltage will be reduced so avoid excessive rises in temperature. If the temperature continues rise up to 90 degrees, the power amplifier will be shut down. When the temperature drops down to a safe temperature, the equipment will restart automatically. After prolonged use dust may build up and this can reduce the cooling efficiency. As regular maintenance always keep vents and fans free from excess dust. The grounding end of the power cord must be grounded, otherwise there is a risk of electric shock! The power cord must have sufficient current capacity, AC power supply voltage and frequency must be in range of ±10% of the nominal value. Test signal: Pink Noise, bandwidth limited from 22 Hz to 22 kHz 1/8 power is typical of program material with occasional clipping. Refer to these figures for most applications. 1/3 power represents program material with extremely heavy clipping.

Higher density shielding gives better results. Try to select balanced connections. This will reduce any noise interference. When using unbalanced cables, always use the shortest possible - preferably not more than 3 m. Avoid putting unbalanced cables near AC power lines otherwise undesirable noise could happen. Before changing any connections, please turn off all equipment. Otherwise, it may cause damage to hearing and connected speakers. 0.775 V BRIDGE MONO 0.775 V BRIDGE MONO STEREO MONO 8 8 4 4 8 8 4 4 BRIDGE 8 8 0.775 V BRIDGE MONO Before installation, make sure that the power cord is not connected to the power outlet; the power switch is turned off; the volume knob is completely closed (counter clockwise to the limit). Clipping not only makes sound distortion, but also can damage the tweeter of loudspeakers. You can reduce the input signal to avoid input stage clipping. Strong sub signals can also damage woofers. A transient low frequency signal caused by dropping a microphone is a typical sub acoustic signal. For added protection it is recommended to: a. Install a high pass filter between the mixer and amplifier. b. Turn on the high pass filter in the mixer. Without affecting the sound set the filter frequency as high as possible. For example, for a music signal set to 35 Hz, for a microphone set it to 75 Hz. In order to achieve the best performance and the highest system protection, please take note... 1. Before use, you need to configure the amplifier. Improper wiring will lead to the equipment not working properly. For information about connection and configuration, please refer to the "installation" section of this manual. 2. Be careful when connecting, selecting the input signal and when controlling the output level. 3. Do not connect the ground wire of the input and output cables together. Doing so will form a ground loop and cause humming and sonic oscillations. 4. Do not connect the output cable to the power supply. It may cause electric shock. 5. Do not modify the electronics. 6. Do not use the amplifier if the SIG LED continuously flashes yellow. 7. Do not overload the input stages. It will send clipped signals to the amplifier and can result in loudspeaker damage. 8. Do not use the amplifier under the condition of lower than the nominal impedance load. This can cause amplifier output protection to be activated and risks premature clipping. This can damage the connected loudspeakers. 9. When the amplifier is turned on, the output sockets are powered. Risk of electric shock. SIGNAL If the input signal is greater than -32 dB then the LED is green. CLIP If the output signal is distorted by more than 1% then the LED is yellow. FAULT When system protection is activated, the LED turns Red. POWER When the power supply is working normally, the LED will be green.
