    To set the current limit: 1. Reset the trimpot P1 turning fully clockwise. 2. Connect the amplifier to half it’s minimum load (10ohm for DCM500, 20ohm for DCM250, 40ohm for DCM120). 3. Run an rms 1kHz sine wave into the amplifier and set the input level so that you read 425mVDC (DCM250/500) or 825mVDC (DCM120) across the emitter resistor, measuring the side which has the higher current (measured as a voltage across the emitter resistors).

    The thermal cutout and fan is controlled by a microprocessor (PIC12C509A). The temperature is sensed using a 10k@25degC NTC. The fan is normally off and turns on to full speed at 60degC. This temperature is fixed and not adjustable. The thermal cutout temperature is set using the trimpot accessible through the hole in the top left side of the chassis return (only visible with the lid off).

    DCM120 – 80 ohms DCM250 – 40 ohms DCM500 – 20 ohms XLR Audio Input and Parallel Output The DCM series includes both male and female 3 pin XLR connectors per channel. While the female is normally used as the input to the amplifier, both XLR’s are connected in parallel so either will work.

    7815 output = 15.5V 2.6 Give input signal of 500 mV to get outputs as follows (@ 4Ω output load)/ 22V for DCM 120, 32VAC for DCM250, 44.7VAC for DCM 500. Check 100V O/p at 100vV line, Remove the input signal...

    8. Overload setting: - Check the DC voltage at the emitter resistors having the maximum voltage value. Increase input signal to get 820mV for DCM 120, 425mV (for DCM250 & DCM 500). Turn preset (P2) anticlockwise such that it just mutes the output signal and signal returns back slowly after 2 seconds.
