  • Page 6: Installation

    2. Installation 2.1 Location / Assembly / Ventillation • The CA8000D-Series amplifier is a 2 RU high (3.5”) x 19'' wide rack module. It is important to recognize that the amplifier is a heat source and should not be placed next to other equipment that is susceptible to heat, nor should the amplifier itself be exposed to high temperatures from other nearby equipment.
  • Page 7: Auxillary Ground Lug

    2. Installation 2.4 Auxillary Ground Lug All CA8000D-Series amplifiers are equipped with a signal ground lug. This lug is NOT intended as a primary AC power ground, which instead should be connected to the building ground by means of the power cord. The ground lug is electrically tied to the chassis and can be useful as a means of reducing the chassis ground impedance, thereby eliminating ground loops between devices when setting up a sound system.

    3. Operation and Usage 3.1 Start Up Pushing the POWER SWITCH illuminates the LED Power Indicator and activates the start-up sequence. Initially, both red CLIP LEDs will illuminate during start-up, while the amplifier performs a diagnostic check and stabilizes all internal voltages. After approximately 10 seconds, the CLIP LEDs will turn off indicating that the amplifier is now ready for use.

    3. Operation and Usage 3.3 Indicators (cont’d) TEMP (thermal protection indicator). This indicator illuminates to warn that the tunnel cooling temperature has risen above 90 degrees centigrade. If this occurs, the amplifier will be temporarily shut down by the thermal monitor circuit in order to protect it from damage.
