Un ștecher de tip împământare are două lame și un al treilea ștecher de împământare. Lama lată sau al treilea vârf sunt prevăzute pentru siguranța dumneavoastră. Dacă ștecherul furnizat nu se potrivește în priză, consultați un electrician pentru înlocuirea prizei învechite.
  • Protejați cablul de alimentare să nu fie călcat sau ciupit, în special la prize, prize convenabile și la punctul de ieșire din aparat.
  • Utilizați numai atașamente/accesorii specificate de producător.
  • Deconectați acest aparat din priză în timpul furtunilor cu fulgere sau când nu este utilizat pentru perioade lungi de timp.
  • Toate lucrările de întreținere se adresează personalului de service calificat. Întreținerea este necesară atunci când aparatul a fost deteriorat în vreun fel, cum ar fi cablul de alimentare sau ștecherul este deteriorat, s-a vărsat lichid sau au căzut obiecte în aparat, aparatul a fost expus la ploaie sau umezeală, nu funcționează normal , sau a fost abandonat.

AVERTIZARE: Pentru a reduce riscul de incendiu sau electrocutare, nu expuneți acest aparat la ploaie sau umezeală.

Instrucțiuni de operare

Operare de bază

  1. Pornire: Ensure all connections are secure before plugging the unit into an AC outlet. The unit will power on automatically.
  2. Conexiune de intrare: Connect your audio sources (microphones, line-level devices) to the appropriate input jacks (Input 1, 2, or 3) on the rear panel.
  3. Conexiune difuzor: Conectați-vă difuzoarele la AMPLIFIER OUTPUT terminal block, matching the impedance and voltage settings. For Zone 2, connect either an external amplifier or a 1W 8Ω speaker.
  4. Ajustați amplificarea de intrare: Use the GAIN knobs for each input to set the appropriate input level. Start with the gain at minimum and slowly increase until the desired level is achieved without distortion.
  5. Adjust Master Output: Use the master volume control (typically on the front panel, though not detailed in the provided image) to set the overall output level.
  6. Adjust Zone 2 Level: Use the ZONE 2 LEVEL knob on the rear panel to control the output level for Zone 2.

Reglarea câștigului de intrare

Each input (Input 1, Input 2, Input 3) has a dedicated gain control knob on the rear panel. These knobs allow you to match the input sensitivity of the amplifier to the output level of your audio source.

  • Câștig intrare 1: Adjustable from -10 dB to +50 dB, suitable for both line and microphone levels. Input 1 has priority over Input 2 and Input 3.
  • Câștig intrare 2: Adjustable from -10 dB to +10 dB. Input 2 has priority over Input 3.
  • Câștig intrare 3: Adjustable from -10 dB to +10 dB.

To set the gain, start with the knob fully counter-clockwise (minimum gain). Play your audio source at its typical operating level and slowly turn the gain knob clockwise until the signal is clear and strong without clipping or distortion. If a signal is too hot even at minimum gain, consider using an attenuator or a different input.

Zone 2 Level Control

The ZONE 2 LEVEL knob controls the output volume for the Zone 2 output. This allows for independent volume adjustment of the secondary audio zone. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the level and counter-clockwise to decrease it. The range is from OFF to MAX.

Manual Mute Function

The MANUAL MUTE terminal block allows for external control of muting functions via contact closure.

  • 1 & G = INPUT 1 TRIG: Connecting a contact closure between terminal 1 and G will trigger a specific function related to Input 1, typically muting other inputs or activating a priority override.
  • G & 2 = MASTER SYSTEM STANDBY: Connecting a contact closure between terminal G and 2 will put the entire TM-360 system into standby mode, effectively muting all outputs.

Consult specific system design documentation for detailed implementation of these contact closure functions.

Întreţinere

The Ashly TM-360 is designed for reliable operation with minimal maintenance. Follow these guidelines to ensure longevity:
