5. Tatūnga
Follow these steps to set up your Ashly nX1504 ampKaiwhakaora:
- Whakapiki Rack: Whakanuia te amplifier in a standard 19-inch equipment rack using appropriate rack screws. Ensure sufficient space for ventilation.
- Hononga Whakauru: Honoa tō pūtake oro (whakaranu, muaamplifier, etc.) to the input connectors (CH1-CH4) on the rear panel using balanced XLR or TRS cables.
- Hononga Kaikōrero: Connect your loudspeakers to the speaker output terminals. Pay close attention to polarity (+/-) and impedance matching. For bridged operation, consult the rear panel diagram and DIP switch settings.
- Whirihoranga Whakawhiti DIP: Before powering on, configure the DIP switches on the rear panel according to your system requirements (e.g., input gain, high-pass filter, bridging). Refer to the diagram on the rear panel for specific switch functions.
- Hononga Hiko: Connect the supplied AC power cord to the AC power inlet on the rear panel, then plug the other end into a grounded power outlet.
- Hiko Tuatahi: Ensure all connections are secure and correct. Turn on the amplifier using the front panel power button. Observe the indicator lights for normal operation.
6. Nga Tohutohu Whakahaere
Kotahi te ampIna whakaritea te kaiwhakaora hiko, whai i ēnei aratohu mō te mahi:
- Gain Structure: Adjust the input gain on your source device and the amplifier's input sensitivity (via DIP switches) to achieve optimal signal-to-noise ratio without clipping. The SIGNAL indicator should illuminate consistently, and the CLIP/MUTE indicator should only flash momentarily during peak signals, if at all.
- Tohu Aroturuki: Regularly monitor the front panel indicators:
- CLIP/MUTE: If this light is constantly on, reduce the input level to prevent distortion and potential speaker damage.
- PROTECT/TEMP: If these lights illuminate, the amplifier is in protection mode or overheating. Turn off the unit, allow it to cool, and check for proper ventilation or speaker impedance issues.
- Aratau Piriti: If operating in bridged mode, ensure the correct DIP switch settings are applied and that the speaker impedance is suitable for bridged operation (typically higher impedance than stereo mode).
- Hiko Whakaheke: Always power down the amplifier after use by pressing the front panel power button.
7. Tiaki
Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and reliable performance of your ampKaiwhakaora:
- Te horoi: Me horoi i nga wa katoa o waho o te amplifier with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents. Ensure ventilation grilles are free of dust and debris.
- Whakahau: Periodically check that the ventilation openings are not obstructed. Dust accumulation can lead to overheating.
- Hononga: Periodically check all input and output connections for secure fit. Loose connections can cause signal loss or intermittent operation.
- Rokiroki: Mena kei te penapena te amplifier for an extended period, ensure it is in a dry, cool environment, protected from dust and extreme temperatures.
