5 Connecting the PA Amplifier
All connections should only be made by skilled
personnel and with the amplifier switched off .
5.1 Speakers
It is possible to connect either PA speakers (figs .
1 and 2) or speakers /speaker groups with a
total impedance of at least 4 Ω (figs . 3 – 5), see
page 2 . Depending on the speaker type, use
the corresponding contacts of the terminal strip
OUTPUT (12) . The terminal strip can be removed
from its plug-in connection for better handling .
When connecting, observe the correct
individual or total impedance of the speakers
and their correct polarity (positive and negative
connections as shown in figs . 1 – 5) . The positive
connection of the speakers is always especially
coded .
Caution! With PA speakers with a 70 V or
100 V audio transformer (figs . 1 and 2), the
total load by the speak ers must not exceed
120 W RMS, otherwise the amplifier will be
overloaded and possibly damaged .
5.2 Microphones
Up to four microphones may be connected to
the inputs INPUT 1 to INPUT 4 (13) . Instead of
the XLR jack INPUT 1, also the terminals (18)
may be used .
1) When connecting a microphone, unlock the
corresponding switch MIC / LINE (17) .
2) For the jacks to which a phantom-powered
microphone is connected: Use the corre-
sponding DIP switch PHANTOM POWER (20)
to switch on the 20 V phantom power (switch
in the lower position) .
Caution! When the phantom power is
switched on, no unbalanced microphone
or audio unit must be connected to the
input; these units may be damaged .
5.3 Units with line output
Up to five units with a line output (e . g . CD
player, cas sette recorder) can be connected to
the inputs INPUT 1 to INPUT 4 (13) and to the
input AUX IN (16) . When connecting to the in-
puts INPUT 1 to INPUT 4, lock the corresponding
switch MIC / LINE (17) .
5.4 Inserting an equalizer or
another unit
For external effects on the sound, an equalizer,
for example, can be inserted via the jacks PRE
OUT and AMP IN (14) .
1) Remove the jumper between the connections
PRE OUT and AMP IN . Thus, the preamplifier
and the power amplifier are separated .

2) Connect the input of the unit to the jack
PRE OUT .
3) Connect the output of the unit to the jack
AMP IN .
Note: The amplifier does not emit a signal if the
unit inserted is not switched on, if it is defective or
not correctly connected .
5.5 Additional amplifier
If the number of the required speakers is higher
than the number admissible for the amplifier,
an additional amplifier will be required (e . g .
MONACOR PA-900S) . Connect the input of the
additional amplifier to the jack LINE OUT (15) .
The output level of the jack is independent of
the control MASTER VOLUME (4) .
5.6 Power supply and
emergency power supply
For continued operation of the amplifier after a
possible mains failure, connect a 24 V emergency
power supply unit (e . g . MONACOR PA-24ESP) to
the terminal strip EMERGENCY SUPPLY (11) . The
terminal strip can be removed from its plug-in
connection for better handling . Finally connect
the supplied mains cable to the mains jack (8)
first and then to a mains socket (230V/ 50Hz) .
Notes:
1 . If the 24 V voltage from the emergency power
unit is available at the terminals EMERGENCY
SUPPLY, the amplifier cannot be switched off
with the switch POWER (7) . In case of a mains
failure or if it is switched off, the amplifier will
automatically switch to the emergency power
supply .
2 . With emergency power supply, the amplifier
will deliver less power than with mains supply .
6 Operation
1) Prior to switching on the amplifier for the first
time, set the controls INPUT 1 to 4 (1) and
the controls AUX (2) and MASTER VOLUME
(4) to position "0" .
2) Switch on the amplifier with the POWER
switch (7) . After switching-on, the LED ON
(5) lights up .
3) Turn up the control MASTER VOLUME (4) so
that the next adjustments are audible .
4) Adjust the input controls INPUT 1 to 4 (1)
and the control AUX (2) to the desired value .
5) Adjust the tone controls BASS and TREBLE
(3) to optimum sound .
6) Adjust the total volume with the main control
MASTER VOLUME (4) . The 5-step LED row (6)
indicates the output level . For an optimum
level, adjust the control so that the red LED
+3 does not yet light up .

6.1 Talkover function of channel 1
Via channel INPUT 1, announcements can be
made during a musical programme . Then the
volume of the other channels is automatically
attenuated by 40 dB . To switch on this function,
lock the button AUTOTALK (19) .
