IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

The lightning fl ash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage“ within the product’s enclosure that may be of suffi cient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and “maintenance” (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

1.Read these instructions.

2.Keep these instructions.

3.Heed all warnings.

4.Follow all instructions.

5.Do not use this apparatus near water.

6.Clean only with a dry cloth.

7.Do not “block” any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacture’s instructions.

8.Do not install near heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifi ers) that produce heat.

9.Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or the grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fi t into your outlet, consult an electrican for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

10.Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.

11.Only use attachments/accessories specifi ed by the manufacturer.

12.Use only with the cart, tripod, bracket, or table specifi ed by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

13.Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for a long period of time.

14.Refer all servicing to qualifi ed service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

15.Do not expose this equipment to dripping or splashing and ensure that no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, are placed on the equipment.

16.To completely disconnect this equipment from the AC Mains, disconnect the power plug from the AC receptacle.

17.The mains plug of the power supply cord shall remain readily operable.

Management of WEEE (waste electrical and electronic equipment) (applicable in Member States of the European Union and other European countries with individual national policies on the management of WEEE) The symbol on the product or on its packaging indicates that this product may not be treated as regular household waste, but has to be disposed through returning it at a Telex dealer.

 

IMPORTANT SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION:

These servicing instructions are for use by qualified personnel only. To reduce the risk of

 

electric shock, do not perform any servicing other than that contained in the Operating

 

Instructions unless you are qualified to do so. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

1.Security regulations as stated in the EN 60065 (VDE 0860 / IEC 65) and the CSA E65 - 94 have to be obeyed when servicing the appliance.

2.Use of a mains separator transformer is mandatory during maintenance while the appliance is opened, needs to be operated and is connected to the mains.

3.Switch off the power before retrofi tting any extensions, changing the mains voltage or the output voltage.

4.The minimum distance between parts carrying mains voltage and any accessible metal piece (metal enclosure), respectively between the mains poles has to be 3 mm and needs to be minded at all times. The minimum distance between parts carrying mains voltage and any switches or breakers that are not connected to the mains (secondary parts) has to be 6 mm and needs to be minded at all times.

5.Replacing special components that are marked in the circuit diagram using the security symbol (Note) is only permissible when using original parts.

6.Altering the circuitry without prior consent or advice is not legitimate.

7.Any work security regulations that are applicable at the location where the appliance is being serviced have to be strictly obeyed. This applies also to any regulations about the work place itself.

8.All instructions concerning the handling of MOS - circuits have to be observed.

NOTE:

SAFETY COMPONENT ( MUST BE REPLACED BY ORIGINAL PART )

CL 1200, CL 2000 specifications

The Dynacord CL 1200 and CL 2000 are robust power amplifiers known for their superior performance and reliability in demanding sound reinforcement applications. These amplifiers are designed with cutting-edge technology, making them suitable for a variety of professional settings including live concerts, installations, and corporate events.

One of the main features of the CL series is their Class D amplification technology. This design not only provides high efficiency but also significantly reduces energy consumption and heat generation compared to traditional Class AB amplifiers. The result is a lightweight and compact unit that delivers powerful audio output without the burden of excessive weight.

Both the CL 1200 and CL 2000 models differ primarily in their output power capabilities. The CL 1200 is capable of delivering up to 1200 watts per channel, while the CL 2000 can reach an impressive 2000 watts per channel. This makes them adaptable to different venue sizes, ensuring that there is ample power for various performance needs.

Another key characteristic of both models is their versatile connectivity options. These amplifiers come equipped with XLR and TRS inputs as well as binding post and speakON outputs, making them compatible with a wide range of sound systems and speaker configurations. This flexibility is crucial for audio professionals who need to adapt their setup quickly in different environments.

Advanced protection features are also integrated into the design of the CL amplifiers. They feature temperature control, short circuit protection, and overload protection, ensuring that the equipment remains safe and operational under various conditions. This reliability is paramount for live sound applications where equipment failure can have serious consequences.

The user-friendly interface allows for easy setup and operation. The built-in LED indicators provide real-time monitoring of the amplifier's status, helping users to quickly identify any issues that may arise. This assists audio engineers in maintaining optimal performance throughout events.

In summary, the Dynacord CL 1200 and CL 2000 amplifiers are characterized by their powerful output, Class D technology, flexible connectivity, and advanced protection features. These amplifiers are engineered to meet the demands of professional audio applications, making them a preferred choice for sound reinforcement solutions. With robust performance and reliability, the CL series stands out as a leading option in today's competitive audio market.
