In this User Manual you will find some hints and warning notes for your new product with which a save use of the DA 428 is allowed. Please read this instructions before you switch on the unit for the first time, to get in touch with particular features of your new product.
3. The completely digital 4-channel DSP-amplifier The DA 428 is a completely digital 4-channel amplifier with 700 W @ 4 ohm output power on each channel. This compact, light- weight 19"-2U device is equipped with comprehensive DSP features like matrix router, 6 fully parametric equalizers, two crossover networks, delay and dynamic processor per channel.

- signalized external access (is not used in this version) 4. LCD display - Is used as operation mode display of the DA 428. The arrows in the LCD display show the directions to navigate through the submenus (see navigation structure). All software parameters must be set on the unit itself.
To switch on / off your DA 428, please follow the instructions: 1. Apply power supply connection (90 - 250 Volt / 50 - 60 Hz) on DA 428 (if the unit is switched to power mode „Always On“, it is switched on now) – „lock“-function can be active! 2.

[routing possibilities for each channel] A/d1(L), B/d2(L), C/d1(R), D/d2(R), C always, D always, A+B/d1(L+R), C+D/d2(L+R), C+D always, B+C+D, A+B+C+D/d1+d2 The routing of the DA 428 offers comprehensive possibilities for controlling the audio signal. You will find detailed information in the table on page 11.

If you choose „Always On“, the DA 428 is always on. That means after apply power supply connection the unit is automatically on and ready to play (the “lock function” can be active!). If you choose „Last State“- mode, the DA 428 will always start in the last state of operating after power cycle the unit.
Source, A:C/d1, B:D/d2, A+B/d1 mono, C+D/d2 mono, C+D always, B+C+D, A+B+C+D The link mode of the DA 428 offers comprehensive possibilities for controlling the audio signal to analogue or digital systems. You will find detailed information in the table on page 12.
You will drive a passively channelled PA system with two separately driven monitor systems (passive) with your DA 428. The input signal fort the PA is digital and the monitor systems are driven with two separately analogue input signals. Please plug in the digital input signal to input A of DA 428 and the monitor signals to input C + D.
This center-cluster consists also of 4 PANO Line Array elements. Please plug in the left input signal to input A and the right input signal to input B of the first DA 428. Now you have to route output A – output C of the first DA 428 to „A/d1(L)“ = left audio signal for the left 6 elements (connect always two together).
11. Specifications DA 428 Electronic: Output power @ 4 / 8 Ohm 4 x 700 W / 400 W Amplifier four fully digital amplifiers with high efficiency, about 90 % Frequency range 20 Hz - 20 kHz S/N-ratio 100 / 95 dB...
Press for 1 second the encoder A / B / C or D to mute the channel. A repeated pressing of the particular encoder causes the deactivation of the „mute“-function (see display). If the „mute“- function was activated (before switching off the DA 428), the „mute“- function is after switching on the DA 428 again still activated.
12.3 Entering password To lock the DA 428 with a password (max. 8 digits) you have to enter it first. This password can be changed every time. Note! Keep in mind resp. note down the entered password because if you want to „unlock“...
13. System operation and extension This overview shows you examples of using, combination and extension of passive PA components within using DA 428 as heart and control center, to adapt your reinforcement optimally on your audience. Monitor-mode four independently and free routable channel for monitoring – 4x passive monitors (min.
