    SHOCK HAZARD! The Atlas Sound CP700, when in operation, can produce a shock hazard at the speaker terminals. Make sure the amplifi er is turned off when installing or removing connections at the speaker terminal barrier strip.

    POWER AMPLIFIER INTRODUCTION Congratulations and thank you for purchasing the Atlas Sound CP700 dual channel power amplifi er. This product is a professional grade audio power amplifi er specifi cally designed for demanding contractor applications and engineered to provide years of faithful service. Two independent channels driven by separate power supplies ensure maximum channel separation and ultra low distortion fi...

    SIGNAL CH-1 1. Power Switch This rocker switch supplies power to the CP700 amplifi er. A red LED located above the power switch will illuminate when the CP700 is switched on. 2. Protect LED Indicators The CP700 features several types of protection circuitry to prevent damage during turn-on or fault conditions.

    POWER AMPLIFIER 4. Limit LED Indicator The CP700 comes equipped with limiter circuitry and LEDs to indicate when this circuitry is activated. The limiter circuitry engages only when the input signals reach a specifi c, factory set magnitude. Once this limit has been reached, the circuitry will reduce the input level enough to prevent clipping at the speaker output terminals.
  • Page 6 To calculate the maximum quantity of transformer coupled loudspeakers you can safely connect to the CP700, fi rst add up the total number of speakers that will be connected to one channel of the CP700, then multiply that total speaker number by the tap setting you plan to use. The result will be the load in watts that the amp output channel will see.
  • Page 7: Input Wiring

    At the input section located on the rear of the CP700, wire the "hot"/positive lead to the "+" terminal, the "cold"/negative lead to the "-" terminal and the shield/drain to the "ground" terminal.
  • Page 8: Unbalanced Input

    Do not forget to install a jumper wire between the "-" terminal and the ground, as a loss of gain will result without this jumper (Figure 4). White/Red (+) THRU 1601 JACK MCKAY BOULEVARD ENNIS, TEXAS 75119 U.S.A. • ©2005 ATLAS SOUND LP Printed in U.S.A. White/Red (+) Shield Shield...

    Observe the speaker connection information in the preceeding paragraph (Stereo Direct Coupled Output). With the CP700 turned OFF, move the rear mounted selector switch to the "Parallel" position and connect your mono input wiring to either the channel one or channel two inputs. Both channels will be driven from this mono signal (Figure 6).
  • Page 10 POWER AMPLIFIER Bridge Mono Configuration (Direct Coupled) If higher power levels are required, the Atlas CP700 can be used in Bridge Mono mode, which utilizes both channels of the amp across the speaker load. With the CP700 turned OFF, move the rear mounted selector switch to the "Bridge" position and connect the input signal to channel one.
