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. -

Technical Services. Ecler NXA Series comes with a 3-year warranty. INTRODUCTION The NXA series consists of four models with 4 channels and two models with 6 channels: • NXA4-80: 4 x 80 W RMS @ 4 •... -
Page 6: Main Features Of Nxa Series
Main features of NXA Series • 4/6 analogue audio inputs • 4/6 amplified output channels (SINGLE (independent), PARALLEL or BRIDGED modes) • 4/6 GPI remote control ports (compatible with 0-10VDC analogue devices, such as WpaVOL and WpaVOL-SR wall panels). A GPI port can control one or more inputs or outputs (volume) or manage the recall of presets 1 to 5 (GPI-1 only) •... -
Page 7: Installation
All NXA series products are supplied with plastic washers in order to be mounted in a rack without damaging the mounting ears. -
Page 8: Mains Connection
Mains connection NXA series products are powered by 110-120, 220-240VAC, 47 / 63Hz, depending on the country (see nameplate on the device). The mains cables must not be near the shielded cables carrying the audio signal, as this could cause humming. -

TP-NET external control protocol. A 3-pin Euroblock connector for the integrated RS-232 (11) interface also allows the device remote control using the TP-NET protocol. Please refer to the EclerNet Manager software manual at www.ecler.com. and TP-NET protocol for more information. -
Page 10: Gpi Remote Control Ports
GPI remote control ports The NXA series rear panel provides 4 or 6 (depending on the model) 0-10VDC remote control ports (13), labeled "GPI 1-6", to which you can connect analogue devices such as the Wpa series wall panels. With the EclerNet Manager application, a function can be assigned to each of these ports: a GPI port can control one or more inputs or outputs (volume) or manage the presets #1-5 recall (GPI-1 only). -

To turn them off the sequence should follow an inverse pattern. Front panel LED indicators NXA series products have the following LEDs on their front panel: • SP indicators (2): indicate a signal presence in the amplification channels. These indicators light up when the input signal exceeds a -40dB threshold. - Page 12 LEDs blink when the "Device Finder" function is activated in EclerNet Manager application. That’s useful for identifying a physical device from its virtual counterpart in this application. Please refer to the EclerNet Manager software manual at www.ecler.com for more information.

EclerNet Manager application. Please refer to the EclerNet Manager software manual at www.ecler.com more information. Moreover, the EclerNet Manager application allows the DSP processing management (volume, phase, EQ, compression, delay, customised input mixes for each output channel, priority or DUCKER function, etc..) for each channel, each channel being used... -
Page 14: Cleaning
CLEANING The front panel should not be cleaned with dissolvent or abrasive substances because silk-printing could be damaged. To clean it, use a soft cloth slightly wet with water and neutral liquid soap; dry it with a clean cloth. Be careful that water never gets into the amplifier through the holes of the front panel. -

Page 20: Tp-Net Protocol Introduction
• Stop bits: 1 • Flow control: None In case the Ecler device has an Euroblock connector for the RS-232 interface, the serial cable wiring, from the device’s connector to a standard DB9 serial interface connector, must be the following: The protocol is simple and direct, making it easy to read, write and modify the generated code. - Page 21 The available messages are built with one or more fields separated with blank spaces ( = blank space): <TYPE> [PARAM1] [PARAM2] [PARAM3] [PARAM4][LF] The first field (TYPE) defines the message type and then, the required parameters for it (each kind of message requires a given number of parameters). The field TYPE can have these values:...
- Page 22 <Input Channel> & <Output Channel> are numerical values that identify an input or output channel of the EclerNet device. For the NXA series it can be within the [1..4] or [1..6] range, for 4 or 6 channel amplifiers. • <Preset Number>...
