Introduction The AA-30 Audio Amplifier provides 30 watts of audio power compatible Description with 25 VRMS speakers. Speaker zone selection is performed by an XPC-8 transponder or M500CJ/M510CJ control module in IFC-1010/2020 systems. Speaker zones may be up to 30 watts each, but are limited to ten speakers per M510CJ control module employed.
Installation Procedures The AA-30 mounts in a CHS-4L Chassis. Two AA-30s can be placed side Mounting the by side in a CHS-4L. The AA-30 may be mounted either in the same AA-30 cabinet as the AMG-1 or in a remote cabinet. See Figure 1 for more information on installing the AA-30.

Step 1 Install the CHS-4L chassis in each row of the cabinet that will employ AA-30 audio amplifiers. For proper grounding of the AA-30 audio amplifiers to the cabinet, connect a grounding cable to one of the chassis mounting screws as illustrated.
Figures 2 and 3 depict the wiring at the AA-30. Figure 2 identifies the Connecting the terminal assignments on the back board as well as the over all chassis AA-30 Amplifier layout.

The Audio Gain Level multi-position rotary switch allows you to adjust Adjusting the the gain of the audio output signal to compensate for audio line losses. AA-30 Audio After you have made the correct adjustment, the AA-30 Audio Amplifier Gain Level produces its maximum rated output power at 25 VRMS.
The amplified audio output circuit is not supervised if configured as AA-30 Amplifier Style Y (2-wire). Supervision is unnecessary, in most jurisdictions, if the Supervision amplified audio wiring is contained within an enclosure such as a Setup transponder. If the amplified (high level) audio wiring extends outside the transponder, it should be supervised.
