This device falls under protection-class I. The power plug must only be plugged into a protection class I outlet.
  • Page 5 Only connect the device when the power switch is off. Never connect the inputs or outputs to any power source (batteries, etc.) Never connect output to output. Before the device is switched on all faders and volume controls have to be set to “0” or “min” position. Never connect the Speaker OUT of the CAMPLIFIER 290 to the signal OUT of the Kemper Profil- ing Amplifier!! This would cause damage to the Kemper Profiling Amplifiers and the CAMPLIFIER 290!
  • Page 6: Legal Instructions

    This is why the entrepreneur has to set up warning signs and provide hearing protectors. The staff has to use these. Please note: Tilman Ritter / RITTER Amplification / Marco Wendel / BlueAmps and KPA-Solutions cannot be made liable for damages caused by incorrect installations and excessive noise levels!

  • Page 7 English 3.1 Information on hearing loss More and more young people suffer from hearing loss of 5 decibel or more, mainly caused by loud music from portable music players, discotheques, rock conocerts or band rehersals. Everybody operating amplification systems should know to what sound pressure levels he exposes his or the audience’s hearing.
  • Page 8: Operating Determinations

    INSIDE of the Kemper Profiling Amplifier (KPA). Any operation of the CAMPLIFIER 90 outside of the KPA is forbidden! The Camplifier 90 is designed to be used as a stereo amplifier with two separate channels. Both channel can power a 4 ohms speaker cabinet to 90Wrms.
  • Page 9: Description

    Please note: operating an amplification system in public or industrial areas, a series of safety instruc- tions have to be followed that this manual can only give in part. The operator must therefore inform himself on the current safety instructions and consider them. Do not shake the device.

  • Page 12 Remove all 8 screws that surround the KPAs back chamber. You will need a TORX 10 screw- driver to do that. Additionally to the power cord that has been delivered with your CAMPLIFIER 90, 8 small screws have been delivered with it too.
  • Page 13: Installation

    It might be helpful to put the KPA carefully on its operation side for this. Please make sure the CAMPLIFIER can be inserted smoothly and without any tension. Align the 8 mounting holes of the CAMPLIFIER 90 as good as possible to the threaded holes at the back sheet metal of the KPA.
  • Page 14: Connections

    English 7 CONNECTIONS All connections have to be made or changed only if the amplifier is switched off! 7.1 Inputs Connect the output of the KPA to one of the jacks to the Camplifiers INPUT sockets. The input signal should have line level. Information on installing speaker cables Input cables should be short and direct, since high frequencies will mostly be absorbed if the ca- bles are unnecessarily long.
  • Page 15 English 7.2 Speaker outputs In stereo mode, the amplifier can operate two speakers or two speaker groups. For connecting speakers, Speaker jacks are provided. When using the Speaker jacks, turn each plug to the right until it locks into place. For unlocking, pull the unlock button and turn the plug to the left. •...
  • Page 16 • Never wind up cables tightly around the elbow, but rather sleek with an interior diameter of 0 to 30 7.2.1 Stereo Operation The most frequently used operating mode of the Camplifier 90 might be stereo operation, where both stereo channels are operated independent of each other. The highest output power during stereo opera- tion is achieved by connecting 4 ohms speakers.
  • Page 17 English 7.2.2 Mono Operation (both stereo speakers operate with the same input signal) Both speaker outputs will be driven by the same input signal. This input signal is fed to the RIGHT sig- nal input socket (marked yellow at the connection scheme at the Camplifier). The highest output power during stereo operation is achieved by connecting 4 ohms speakers.
  • Page 18 English 7.2.3 Bridged mode operation Only a single speaker is connected to bridged mode speaker output socket. For this operation mode , please use the right channels signal input The highest output power during stereo operation is achieved by connecting 8 ohms speakers. With 16 ohms speakers the output power will be slightly reduced.

    English 7.3 Connection with the mains Finally connect the device to the mains with the supplied mains cable. The occupation of the con- nection cables is as follows: brown wire - life wire - L blue wire - neutral - N yellow/green wire - protective earth The earth has to be connected! If the device will be directly connected with the local power supply net- work, a disconnection switch with a minimum opening of 3 mm at every pole has to be included in the...

    English Additional information on the operation When operating the amplifying system, please make sure that the loudspeakers always sound well. When distortions can be heard, either the amplifier or the loudspeaker is overloaded. Overloads can quickly lead to amplifier or speaker damage. In order to avoid damage, please reduce the volume imme- diately when distortions can be heard.
