  • Page 3: Important Remark

    IMPORTANT REMARK The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons. The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

  • Page 6: Introduction

    INTRODUCTION The CA120HZ is a very small mono amplifier with high impedance output (70/100V) and a multitude of remote control functions (RS-232 serial port, infrared receiver, 0-10 VDC remote control port), and is ideal for integrating audiovisual applications with other devices: educational classes, meeting rooms and multimedia presentations, business premises, etc.

    (micro, line…). This may cause the system to oscillate, damaging the amplifier and speakers. 6.1. Location and assembly The CA120HZ is suitable for installation on a wall or under a surface (table, shelf, cupboard, etc.), thanks to its design and layout of its connectors, controls and LED indicator lights.
  • Page 8: Audio Input Connections

    Turntables CANNOT BE CONNECTED directly to this device because none of the inputs have an RIAA preamp. The CA120HZ has the following operating modes according to the input sources selected as active: • LINE1: only the LINE1 input is sent to the mix bus to be amplified and routed to the OUTPUT in mono format •...

    WPmVOL-SR wall panel and the REMOTE CA120HZ connector. • Because there is a CA120HZ WPm type control as well as other types of controls (front knob, infrared control and serial port control) the most recent adjustments by any of these methods will prevail. For example, if an active source is selected and/or...

    The system defaults to volume adjustment mode. In this mode, the VOL/MUTE knob on the front panel acts on the general output volume of the CA120HZ. This controller has a maximum of 64 steps between the unit's minimum and maximum volume. When turned, it will adjust the volume while the LED LEVEL light is flashing.

    7.2. Special active source selection mode and setting adjustments Use the knob on the front panel to access special modes for selecting active sources and adjusting levels and equalization (bass and treble). You can access these modes by holding in the knob for a certain time and then turning it. By adjusting the level of each source you can mix the signal from the microphone or line (LINE3/MIC) and another line (LINE1 or LINE2), and the result of this mix will be controlled by the general output volume of the unit together, in other words, respecting the relative levels set of each...
  • Page 13: Auto Standby Function

    7.3. AUTO STANDBY Function The AUTO STANDBY function (idle or low consumption mode) means you can install the CA120HZ in inaccessible places and leave the device connected to the mains power supply permanently because when no signal is detected, it automatically goes into standby mode, saving energy.

    7.4. LED indicators • SP: The signal presence or SP LED indicator shows that there is a signal in the amplifier input. This lights up when the input level reaches the established detection threshold. • CLIP: The saturation or CLlP LED indicator comes on when the signal delivered to the speakers is close to the amplifier's clipping or saturation level.

    7.7. Restore default settings and update firmware If you would like to restore the CA120HZ to factory settings, follow this procedure: 1. Unplug the equipment then press and hold the knob in. 2. Plug back the unit without releasing the knob. The MUTE LED indicator will flash.
