PDA200E Induction Loop System

Installation Guide

PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE
INSTALLING AND / OR MAINTAINING THIS EQUIPMENT.
Key Features
The PDA200E is a cost-effective induction loop amplifier that is designed to drive a perimeter
loop of up to 200 square metres. It provides the following key features:
Fully compliant as a perimeter loop system as described in BS 7594, clause 10 A3 and BS EN
60118-4 when correctly installed
Up to 200 square metres (metal free) coverage - ideal for most 'free space' applications
Two balanced / unbalanced line level inputs
One microphone input with phantom power for electret microphones (12 V)
Full compatibility with the Outreach plate audio input extension system
Metal compensation control to improve intelligibility in rooms with high metal content
Fully automatic compressor-limiter which maintains the loop signal for improved intelligibility
Each input has a separate internal tamper-resistant control that can be manually adjusted
Compression, output (Peak Current 3, 2, 1) and power on (Power) front panel indicators
Short circuit protection
Internal temperature safety cut-out to stop over heating
Wall-mounted metal enclosure for a permanent robust installation
Complete with installation kit, instructions and 'loop fitted' sticker
Contractor kits available - suitable for use in meeting rooms, TV lounges, places of worship, etc.
Hint!
Additional information about loop design can be found in the PDA Guide to
Audio-Frequency Induction Loop Systems (AFILS), Document Number DLM0503700.

    Before any of the following is carried out ensure that the Mains supply is isolated. Internal controls Five internal pot controls (shown in diagram below) are located on the PDA200E’s PCB, which is Equipment Location mounted internally on the unit’s lid. The fully anti-clockwise position is the control’s minimum All equipment must be sited indoors and MUST NOT be subjected to conditions likely to affect its setting (note that factory default setting is mid-position).
