3. Persediaan
3.1 Membongkar
Buang dengan berhati-hati amplifier from its packaging. Inspect the unit for any signs of damage that may have occurred during transit. Retain the original packaging for future shipping or storage.
3.2 Penempatan dan Pemasangan
The RMX5050 is designed for standard 19-inch rack mounting and occupies 3U of rack space. Ensure the rack provides sufficient ventilation and structural support for the amplifier's weight (approximately 75 pounds).
3.3 Sambungan
Sebelum membuat sebarang sambungan, pastikan amplifier is powered off and disconnected from the AC mains.
3.3.1 Sambungan Input
The RMX5050 features balanced 1/4" TRS, XLR, and barrier strip inputs for flexible connectivity. Connect your audio source (mixer, preamplifier, etc.) to the appropriate input connectors for Channel 1 and Channel 2.
3.3.2 Sambungan Output
Sambungkan pembesar suara anda ke amplifier's outputs using either binding posts or Neutrik Speakon connectors. Ensure correct polarity and impedance matching for optimal performance and to prevent damage to speakers or the amplebih hidup.
Figure 3.1: Rear panel of the QSC RMX5050 Power Amplifier. This image highlights the various input options (XLR, TRS, barrier strip), output connectors (Speakon, binding posts), DIP switches for configuration, and the AC power inlet.
3.3.3 Sambungan Kuasa
Sambungkan kord kuasa AC yang dibekalkan kepada amplifier's power inlet and then to a grounded AC outlet. Verify that the power source matches the ampvoltage keperluan.
3.4 Kuasa Permulaan
- Pastikan semua sambungan audio selamat.
- Set the front panel gain controls to their minimum (fully counter-clockwise) position.
- Hidupkan peralatan sumber audio anda terlebih dahulu.
- Flip the power switch on the RMX5050 to the "ON" position. The power indicator LED should illuminate.
- Slowly increase the gain controls to the desired level.
4. Mengendalikan Amplebih hidup
4.1 Kawalan dan Penunjuk Panel Hadapan
- Suis kuasa: Togol amppengikat hidup/mati.
- LED kuasa: Menyala hijau apabila amppenyambung dihidupkan.
- Gain Controls (Channel 1 & 2): Rotary knobs to adjust the input sensitivity for each channel.
- LED isyarat: Illuminates green when an audio signal is present at the input.
- LED Klip: Illuminates red when the output signal is clipping (distorting). Reduce input level or gain if this LED frequently illuminates.
- Lindungi LED: Illuminates red if the amplifier enters protection mode due to overheating, short circuit, or other fault conditions.

4.2 Rear Panel DIP Switches
The rear panel features DIP switches that allow configuration of various operating parameters. Always power off the amplifier before changing DIP switch settings.
- Clip Limiter: Engages a circuit that prevents severe clipping and protects speakers.
- Low-Frequency Filters: High-pass filters (e.g., 30 Hz, 50 Hz) to remove unwanted low-frequency content, protecting speakers and improving clarity.
- Mod Pengendalian: Selects between Stereo, Parallel, or Bridged Mono operation.
4.3 Mod Pengendalian
4.3.1 Mod Stereo
In stereo mode, each channel operates independently, amplifying its respective input signal and sending it to its dedicated output. This is the standard mode for two-channel sound reinforcement.
4.3.2 Mod Selari
In parallel mode, a single input signal is fed to both amplifier channels, which then drive separate speaker loads. This is useful for driving multiple speakers with the same mono signal.
4.3.3 Bridged Mono Mode
Mod mono terjepit menggabungkan kuasa kedua-duanya amplifier channels into a single, higher-power output. This mode is typically used to drive a single, high-power loudspeaker or subwoofer. Consult the manual for specific wiring instructions for bridged mono operation.
5. Penyelenggaraan
5.1 Pembersihan
Bersihkan bahagian luar secara berkala amplifier with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure ventilation grilles are free from dust and debris.
5.2 Pengudaraan
The RMX5050 relies on internal fans for cooling. Regularly check that the air intake and exhaust vents are not obstructed. Operating the amplifier in poorly ventilated spaces can lead to overheating and activation of protection circuits.

5.3 Penyimpanan
Jika menyimpan amplifier for an extended period, ensure it is kept in a dry, temperature-controlled environment, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. It is recommended to use the original packaging for protection.
6. Penyelesaian masalah
This section provides solutions to common issues you might encounter. If the problem persists, contact QSC customer support or a qualified service technician.
| Masalah | Kemungkinan Punca | Penyelesaian |
|---|---|---|
| Tiada Kuasa | Power cord disconnected, AC outlet faulty, internal fuse blown. | Check power cord connection. Test AC outlet. If fuse is suspected, contact service. |
| Tiada Keluaran Bunyi | Input cables disconnected, speaker cables disconnected, gain controls at minimum, amppenguat dalam mod perlindungan. | Verify all cable connections. Increase gain. Check Protect LED; if illuminated, refer to manual for fault conditions. |
| Distorted Sound (Clip LED on) | Input signal too high, gain set too high, speaker impedance too low. | Reduce input signal level from source. Decrease amplifier gain. Verify speaker impedance matches ampkeupayaan liifier. |
| Amplifier Overheating (Protect LED on) | Insufficient ventilation, blocked vents, excessive load. | Ensure proper airflow. Clear any obstructions from vents. Reduce load or operating time. Allow ampliifier untuk menyejukkan. |
