800m cooling further. Cooling The HS60 and HS120 amplifiers are convection cooled and do not require any special consideration. The HS250 amplifier is cooled by axial fans which draw air from the right side of the amplifier and expel the heated air out the left side of the amplifier. These amplifiers offer variable speed fans which run at half speed up to full speed when the internal heatsink temperature increases. -

Page 14: Operation (Cont)
OPERATION (CONT) TONE GENERATOR The HS mixer amplifier ships as standard with 5 factory programmed default tones. Tones can be played by shorting the appropriate contact to GND on the back panel 10 way Phoenix connector. IMPORTANT: Do NOT drive external voltages into the pins (except VOX) or damage to the unit will occur. Tones 1) ‘EVAC’: a long continuous repeating tone with a ramped frequency. - Page 15 OPERATION (CONT) Overriding Default Tones using an SD Card The default tones of the amplifier can be overridden by added tones to a user supplied SD card. Simply place the tone MP3 or WAV file on the root of the SD card and it will be played instead of the inbuilt tone. (See the Tone File/Folder Structure and Format section for further information on this feature.) In addition, the volume for each custom tone can be customised when using the SD card by adding the required volume to the filename.
- Page 16 OPERATION (CONT) BINARY INPUT TRIGGER The 10 way Phoenix connector on the back panel features a special BINARY input pin, by pulling this pin low it allows combinations of input triggers on the connector to perform additional features. Ability to play up to 11 additional customer specified tones. •...

Page 17: Priority Control
OPERATION (CONT) PRIORITY CONTROL The HS mixer amplifiers feature priority mode detection which allows channels to be muted when audio is detected on channels 1–3. This can be used for applications like paging where background music is muted while the announcement occurs. The priority section consists of three DIP switches and four POTS to configure the operation. -
Page 18: Music Player
OPERATION (CONT) MUSIC PLAYER The amplifier also includes an audio MP3/WAV player which can play an unlimited number of files stored on a user supplied SD card. Music files should be stored in the ‘sequence’ or ‘random’ folders of the SD card. These can then be played from either the front panel controls or the 10 way back panel Phoenix connector (using the continuous play commands). -
