    Parts orders to QSC should include the product model number, the part description, and the QSC part number (from the parts list in this manual). Parts will be shipped via UPS, F.O.B. Costa Mesa, California. Shipping, handling and COD charges may be added to the cost of the parts.

  • Page 7: Test And Calibration

    T e s t & C a l i b r a t i o n PLX 1202 Test Procedure . SET-UP 1. Connect a test load to the output terminals of the amplifier. 2. Make sure Mode Switches 1 - 10 are in the default position (1 on, 10 on, all others off). 3.
  • Page 8 5. Turn power off and place the amplifier back into the Stereo mode with output loads connected to each channel. . BIAS 1. Let the amplifier cool down to room temperature. 2. With an input amplitude of 1.3OVrms increase the input frequency to 2OkHz. Reduce the input signal 20dB (80%) from full output.
  • Page 9 4. Verify that the NTC circuit causes thermal shutdown after an extended period. 5. When thermal shutdown occurs, verify AC idle current of less that 0.90 amperes C M T E S T 1. Select an 8 ohm load and confirm that this amplifier is producing rated power. 2.
  • Page 10 3. Turn the power switch off and on a few times to verify the 3 second power-up muting delay. . CHANNEL OUTPUT 1. Look for amplified signal on the scope for channel 1. Switch the input signal and scope to channel 2 and repeat output test. Check for noisy / contaminated gain pots by observing general instability on the distortion waveform while adjusting the gain control levels.
  • Page 11 FREQUENCY RESPONSE Set load to 8 ohms and scale the input generator to gain 1 watt of power from the amplifier on each channel. Gain controls on the amplifier should be fully up. 2. Check frequency response from 2OHz to 20kHz (+I- 0.2OdB) by sweeping random frequencies between these extremes.
  • Page 12 3. Connect a distortion analyzer with a resolution of O.Ol%, 20-20kHz (or better) to the output terminals of the amplifier. Enable the 80kHz low pass filter. 4. Connect a dual-channel oscilloscope to the following test points: Chl - a 1OX (vertical sensitivity - 2V/cm) scope probe to the channel speaker output. Ch2 - a IX scope probe (vertical sensitivity - 0.
  • Page 13 disable the 80kHz lowpass filter on the analyzer for this test. Further trim so that the total distortion for that channel is less than 0.1% THD+N, 3. With the trim settings achieved, and with no signal plugged into the amplifier and with an 8 ohm load, verify that the AC idle current from the AC service is no more than 1 .O amperes.
  • Page 14 OUTPUT NOISE 1. Set the amplifier gain controls all the way up, with a I kHz 1.5OVrms sinewave input signal. Note the output level at full power just below clipping. Adjust gain if needed. 2. Remove the input signal connector from the amplifier and measure the residual noise level produced into the load by the amplifier.
  • Page 15 2. Select an 8 ohm load and confirm that this amplifier is producing 550 watts at 1 kHz just below the point of clipping. Check both channels. BRIDGE MODE 1. Turn the power switch off. 2. Set Mode Switch #7 in the on position. The gain control, limiter, and filter switch positions on CH2 are disabled with Mode Switch # 7 on.
  • Page 16 POWER vs. DISTORTION TEST 1. Check to ensure that both channels will produce rated power at 2OH2, 2KHz, and 20kHz. into an 8 ohm load. 2. While verifying rated power, check that at all frequencies the distortion measurement is less than or equal to 0.03% THD. THERMAL TEST I.

    T r o u b l e s h o o t i n g PLX 1202 PLX 1602 PLX 2402 PLX 3002 Power Supply - - Replacing Blown IGBTs. In order to improve EMI performance, reduce cost, and increase current capacity, the PLX IGBTs are driven by an active, direct coupled integrated circuit, rather than a gate drive transformer.
  • Page 18 Troubleshooting “TOP-210” Bias Supply. QUICK TEST OF BIAS SUPPLY. Ramp the AC voltage up slowly to 25% of regular voltage (30V for 12OV unit). If the bias supply is working normally, the green “power” LED should come on between 30 and 35V, with its usual, steady “half-brighf’ start-up level.
  • Page 19 CHECK EMITTER AND BASE RESISTORS WHILE DEVICES ARE REMOVED, Each output transistor has an associatated pair of 0.47 ohm resistors in parallel. Each BANK of output transistors has a 15 ohm resistor from base to rail (emitter bus). Audio Outputs, Troubleshooting Current Limit WEAK CURRENT LIMIT -- PREMATURE CLIPPING.
  • Page 20 Audio Power Stage, Current Limit Troubleshooting CURRENT LIMITS WHICH COLLAPSE PREMATURELY. An immediate collapse of ALL current limits at full power could be premature triggering of “Power Supply Cutback”, which is described in the section below. Cutback after several seconds of full power operation at two ohms is normal.
  • Page 21 CLAMPING VOLTAGE DECREASES, BUT NO CURRENT CUTBACK CHANNEL-POLARITY CH I+ CH l- CH 2+ CH 2- Measure voltage on: Check clamp transistor If the measured voltage on the clamp capacitor is not decreasing to about 50% during the short, check the circuitry which measures the current during short circuit, CLAMPING VOLTAGE DOES NOT DECREASE TO 50% DURING SHORT.
  • Page 22 Audio Output, Troubleshooting Stability Feedback HIGH FREQUENCY OSCILLATIONS SEVERE-DRAWS CURRENT-GROSS DISTORTION C27 (62) missing or wrong, or series R367 (368) C 25, 26 (60, 61) missing Secondary filter capacitors missing or open (unlikely that ALL are defective). SEVERE, BUT DOES NOT DRAW LARGE CURRENT R22 (146) open.
  • Page 23 CLIP LIMITING DOESN’T WORK: BOTH CHANNELS: Check U3 missing, Check U3 supply voltages, +I 3VCL, -13VCL, on C73* 74 ONLY ONE CHANNEL BAD: Probe output of U2 (7), pin 7 while clipping. If output exceeds 4V during clipping, check R38 (161) missing. R38-39 (161-162) have wrong values.
  • Page 24 Step Chattering. If the step repeatedly switches on and off, usually at a low frequency, it creates an oscillation burst which increases step glitch at low frequency. The tendency is usually worse at low impedances and low frequencies. 2-3 “false trials” at very low frequency, 2 ohms, is normal, but prolonged bursts of maximum frequency chattering may cause FET failure.
  • Page 25 FET Turns On or Off Very Slowly: Generally causes problems at high frequency, 2 ohms. If both slopes are equally slow, check the slope capacitors: Positive, C30 (035) and Negative, C29 (034). If only one slope is slow, check the resistors and buffer transistors: Positive step: R78, 79, Dl5, Q30-31 (R201, 202, D40, Q75-76) Negative step: R83, 84, Dl7, Q32-33 (R206, 207, D42, Q77-78).
  • Page 26 Fan Speed Troubleshooting FAN STUCK HIGH: Q88 or Q89 failed R30 or Rl55, Thermal Sense NTC, shorted to heatsink R266 or R271 missing. FAN DOESN’T RUN Check fan voltage, should be 1 IV when cold, 29V when hot. Voltage OK -- replace fan. No Voltage: check Q91, 89, 90, R264 and 265 missing.
