17、al power amplifier, and thank you for your confidence in Crest Audio products. You are among the growing number of audio professionals who have made Crest Audio one of the worlds leading suppliers of professional and commercial/industrial audio systems. For your safety, please read the Important Pre
18、cautions section before installing and operating the amplifier. The Crest Audio FXA Series is based on the same advanced circuit topologies that have made Crest ampli- fiers the choice of touring professionals worldwide. FXA Series amplifiers are designed for high operating efficiency and accurate s
19、onic performance across the full audio bandwidth, even under stressful conditions. In order to maintain strict quality assurance standards, all FXA Series amplifiers are built in Crests state-of- the-art USA manufacturing facility. Internal components are the finest available, and key sub-assemblies
20、 are pre-tested before final assembly. Finally, each amplifier is “burned in” and thoroughly tested (using preci- sion audio test equipment) before shipping. In addition, all FXA Series amplifiers incorporate Crests exclu- sive TourClassprotection features to safeguard both internal circuitry and co
21、nnected loudspeakers. This proven combination of advanced design, quality construction, and comprehensive circuit protection is your guarantee of fail-safe reliability. You can depend on consistent, stable performance even when your FXA Series amplifier is subjected to punishing extremes in the most
22、 demanding fixed or mobile sound rein- forcement applications. Unpacking Please inspect the amplifier carefully immediately after unpacking. If you find any damage, notify your sup- plier/dealer immediately. Only the shipper may file a damage claim with the carrier for damage incurred during shippin
23、g. Be sure to save the carton and all packing materials for the carriers inspection. If your packing materials are in good condition, please save them. If you ever need to ship the unit back to Crest Audio or an authorized service center, you should use only the original factory packing. Installatio
24、n and Mounting Four FXA Series amplifiers are 2-rack-space units: models FXA601, FXA901, FXA1201, and FXA2401. Models FXA3601 and FXA4801 are 3-rack-spaces high. All mount in standard 19-inch racks. Four front- panel mounting holes are provided on each amplifier. Rear mounting ears give additional s
25、upport, and use of rear supports is highly recommended in all mobile and touring sound systems. Crest Audio FXA Series Power AmplifiersPage 5 Models FXA601, FXA901, FXA1201, FXA2401, FXA3601, FXA4801 FXA Front Panel 1. Rack Mounting Ears. Two front panel mounting holes are provided on each mounting
26、ear. 2. Fan Outlet Grills. FXA Series amplifiers are cooled by two, rear-mounted fans. Cool air flows over the heat sinks and exhausts through the front grills. Make sure these outlets remain clear to allow unrestricted air flow. 3. AC Power Switch/Circuit Breaker. FXA Series amplifiers have a front
27、-panel combination AC switch and circuit breaker. (No fuses are used.) If the switch shuts off during normal use, push it back to the “ON” position once. If it will not stay on, the amplifier needs servicing. 4. Clip LED. Illuminates at the clipping threshold. Continuous illumination also indicates
28、that ACL (Active Clip Limiting) protection circuitry is engaged. 5. Signal LED. Illuminates to indicate that a signal (above a minimum threshold) is present at the amplifier input, and that the signal is being amplified. 6. Protect LED. Indicates that the channel is in Protect mode (speakers disconn
29、ected by output relay). 7. Active LED. Indicates that AC power is connected and the amplifier is turned on. 8. Input Attenuators. Two input attenuators adjust level for their respective amplifier channels. In Bridged Mono Mode, both attenuators are used to control signal level and must be adjusted t
30、o the same setting.

Output Connectors FXA Series amplifiers are supplied with 5-way Binding Posts. Connection to the binding posts can be made with bare wire, banana plugs, or sp
32、ade lug terminations. Make connections to both the Channel A and Channel B terminals for Stereo or Parallel Mode, or a single connection across the red (“hot”) terminals only of Channels A and B for Bridged Mono Mode. See Appendix D and the section on Mode Selection for more information. NOTE: on th
33、e of the FXA4801, two pairs of 5-way binding posts are provided for each channel, so that paralleling of speakers is possible. 10. Mode Selection Switch. This recessed, three-position switch configures the amplifier for Stereo, Parallel or Bridged Mono Mode operation. Amplifiers are factory-configur
34、ed for Stereo Mode. See Appendix D and the section on Mode Selection for more information. 11. Signal Ground Lift Switch. The recessed signal ground lift switch (factory-set to the ground bottom position) electrically connects signal ground to the chassis/AC ground. The top position lifts the amplif
35、iers signal ground. In a properly designed system (for safety purposes and to minimize noise), amplifiers should be connected to ground through the AC line cord. Also, whenever possible, the signal source equipment should share the same AC ground as the amplifier. In some cases this may not be possi
36、ble, and a ground loop results. If this happens, the first step is to move the ground lift switch to the top (lift) position. In this position, the signal ground is lifted and completely isolated from the chassis/AC ground. Do not change the switch to the lift position if the amplifier and the signa
37、l source equipment are on the same AC ground. Should the ground loop problem persist after the ground lift switch has been set to the lift position, then the shield on balanced input lines should be grounded at one end only (usually the signal source). 12-13. Balanced 1/4 (TRS) the unused connectors
38、 may be used for “loop through” connection to other amplifiers. NOTE: Unbalanced “Tip/Sleeve” plugs may be used with the balanced TRS “Tip/Ring/Sleeve” connectors. The “ring” terminal or negative input will be connected to ground internally. When using three-pole (stereo) TRS connectors, make sure t
39、hat the ring connection is made either to the cold () output of the source equipment, or to ground. Incorrect connections may cause a 6dB loss in level.

POUR VITER LE RISQUE DINCENDIE OU DE CHOC LECTRIQUE, NE PLACEZ PAS CET APPAREIL SOUS LA PLUIE OU LHUMIDIT CAUTION A A B AB A Designed this indica
41、tes that the temperature sensing circuits are operating normally. The fan speed increases only as required by heat sink temperatures, keeping fan noise to a minimum. Under extreme thermal load, the fans will force a very large volume of air through the heat sinks. If either heat sink surpasses the m
42、aximum allowed temperature, the sensing circuit will open the output relay, disconnecting the load from that channel. If the power trans- former overheats, another sensing circuit opens both channel output relays until the transformer cools to a safe temperature. IMPORTANT: To ensure optimum cooling
43、, periodically clean the amplifier fan filters (removable without tools). Also make certain that there is enough space around the front of the amplifier to allow the cooling air to escape. If the amplifier is rack-mounted, do not use doors or covers on the front of the rack; the exhaust air must flo
44、w out without resistance. If the amplifiers are to be housed in racks with closed backs, allow at least one (1) standard rack space of opening in the front of the rack for every four amplifiers.

45、XA Connecting Inputs. Use either the XLR or 1/4-inch input connectors on the rear to supply audio signals to your Crest Audio FXA Series amplifier. Both connectors accept balanced and unbalanced audio connections. (The FXA Series amplifiers are configured standard with “Pin 2 hot” on XLR inputs. Ple
46、ase note that some other Crest Audio amplifiers are configured with “Pin 3 hot”). The unused connector can be used to jumper the audio input to another amplifier input. For more information, see the sections on Balanced 1/4 (TRS) in addition, both must be adjusted to the same setting. Either the 1/4
47、 (TRS) or XLR input may be used. NOTE: The channel B input connectors (XLR and/or TRS) may be used to “loop thru” the channel A signal when in parallel or bridged mono mode. Use extreme caution when operating the amplifier in Bridged Mono Mode. Never ground either side of the speaker cable when the
48、amplifier is in Bridged Mono Mode; both sides are “hot.” If an output patch panel is used, all connections must be isolated from each other and from the panel. The recommended minimum nominal load impedance in the Bridged Mono Mode is 4 ohms, which is the equivalent to driving both channels separate
49、ly at 2 ohms. Driving bridged loads of less than the recommended minimums will activate the IGM circuitry, resulting in a loss of power, and may also lead to a thermal protect condition. See figures on page 11 showing output connection information.
