5. Configuració i connexions

5.1 Instal·lació del bastidor

The PSSO QCA-10000 MK2 is designed for standard 19-inch rack mounting and occupies 2U of rack space. Ensure adequate ventilation space around the unit, especially at the front and rear for airflow.

5.2 Connexions d'entrada i sortida

Abans de fer cap connexió, assegureu-vos que amplifier is turned off and disconnected from the power supply.

• Entrades d'àudio: Connecteu la font d'àudio (per exemple, el mesclador, el pre-amplifier) to the XLR INPUTs (CH1-CH4) on the rear panel using balanced XLR cables.
• Audio Link: Use the XLR LINK outputs to daisy-chain the audio signal to other amplifiers or devices if needed.
• Sortides dels altaveus: Connect your loudspeakers to the SPEAKON outputs (SPEAKON 1-4) using appropriate speakON cables. Ensure correct polarity and impedance matching.

6. Funcionament

6.1 Engegada/apagada

1. Assegureu-vos que totes les connexions siguin segures i correctes.
2. Turn down all channel level controls to their minimum setting.
3. Enceneu el amplifier using the front panel power switch. The amplifier will undergo a brief power-on delay.
4. To power off, first turn down all channel level controls, then switch off the ampmés viu.

6.2 Ajust dels nivells

Gradually increase the channel level controls (CH-1 to CH-4) to achieve the desired output volume. Monitor the LED VU meters to ensure the signal is not clipping (CLIP LED should not illuminate frequently or stay lit). If the CLIP LED illuminates, reduce the input signal level from your source or the amplifier's channel level.

6.3 Comprensió dels indicadors LED

• LED DE SENYAL: Indicates the presence of an audio signal. It should light up when audio is playing.
