The total power available from any group of speaker circuits cannot exceed the limitations of the audio amplifiers feeding that group. The maximum load connect to any one speaker circuit cannot exceed 30 watts. For typical amplifier and speaker circuit configurations for the System 5000, refer to Appendix A. This section does not contain installation drawings or information.
Amplifying the Audio Signal 'HVLJQ &RQVLGHUDWLRQV The AMG-1 and ATG-2 produce low-level (unamplified) tones or messages. To drive speaker circuits, the audio signal must be fed through an AA-30/AA-30E, AA-100/ AA-100E, or AA-120/AA-120E Audio Amplifier. The output of the amplifiers is then fed to the modules that control the speaker zones.
