PAC Instructions for PTM-1645 & PTM-8100 Amps

Introduction

The PAC amplifier power controller is used in new
ADA PTM-1645 and PTM-8100 amplifiers. It incor-
porates a micro-controller for turn on power inrush
control and smart zone trigger control. Triggers are
activated by voltage input or by RS-232 data control.
You may use the triggers normally on a one to one
basis or you may custom assign any amplifier zone(s)
to any preamplifier trigger. Amplifiers can be set to
one of nine possible addresses permitting up to nine
amplifiers to be PAC linked together. You can also
select the bypass mode on the rear panel which will
activate all triggers anytime the main power is on.
The PTM-1645 has eight individually controlled ste-
reo outputs. The PTM-8100 has four individually
controlled stereo outputs. As such, only zones 1-4
are valid on the PTM-8100.
The PAC circuit is not an ADA bus device. For data
control it requires its own discrete serial port as there
is no handshaking, data flow control or collision de-
Entering Setup, Default Restore, Quick Turn On & Addresses
1. Plug data cable into unit to be setup, no loop throughs.
2. Start hyperterminal program set properties to serial port
to be used with 8N1, flow control none, at 19,200 baud.
3. Hold Setup button on the rear of unit for more than 5
seconds and release. The LED will blink when the button is
released indicating setup mode and the PC's screen will update.
Setup will time out after 60 seconds of inactivity. Alternatively,
pressing the Setup button once or turning the main Power switch
off and on will also escape the setup mode.
Keyboard Entries - Any letters used must be uppercase only.

will update.
Q <ENTER> toggles the Quick Turn On mode and the PC's
screen will update. In Quick Turn On mode, the amplifier's

tection as with ADA bus devices. No special setup
program is required. Hyperterminal, included with
most Windows based PC's or any suitable terminal
program can be used.

immediate. This is useful for paging applications or where an
instant response is required. When Quick Turn On mode is off,
the amplifier's power supply is in standby when any zone is not
active. The first time the amp is activated, there will be a 3
second delay for the current inrush limiter before audio can be
heard. The inrush limiter also operates the first time the amp
mains are powered when Quick Turn On mode is on.
