Quick Operation Guide

Here is a quick guide for those who want to listen to music or view their favorite movies as soon as possible. Connections and operations are explained briefly here for the purpose of just getting you started.

For those of you who want to operate the PA-MC5500 (the amplifier) right away, follow the guide below. How- ever, this instruction manual contains a great deal of other information that you should know for the proper operation of the amplifier and for a more pleasurable experience with the amplifier. Be sure to read the rest of this manual as well after reading this quick guide.

The procedures given below assume that the other sys- tem components are already connected and configured. (For example, that the source components are already connected to the control amplifier.)

1.Lower the volume at the control amplifier. Lower the volume of the control amplifier to the minimum so that when the amplifier is turned on, you do not hear loud unwanted sounds.

2.Connect the speakers to the amplifier. Connect the speakers to the amplifier using the proper speaker cables. Be sure to match the channels and the positive (+) and negative (–) polarities between the speakers and the amplifier. If the con- nections are mistaken, the correct orientation will not be obtained.

3.Select balanced input (XLR) or unbalanced input (RCA) with the INPUT SELECT switch.

The amplifier possesses a balanced input (XLR) and unbalanced input (RCA) for each channel and the switch for the two is located between the two input terminals. Select the proper input type depending on the functionality of the connected cables and the control amplifier.

Note:

Do not change the INPUT SELECT switch setting when the amplifier is turned on.

4.Connect the control amplifier to the amplifier. After selecting the correct input type in step 3 above, connect the output from the control amplifier to the corresponding input terminal on the amplifier.

Note:

Do not connect anything to the other input jack.

5.Connect the supplied power cord to the amplifier and to the wall power outlet.

Be sure to properly plug the power cord all the way in.

6.Press the POWER switch.

The STANDBY indicator lights red.

7.Press the ON/STANDBY button. The ON indicator lights blue.

When you connect other device to the 12V TRIG- GER IN terminal using the supplied cable, the power on or off status of the amplifier synchronizes to the action of turning on or off the connected device. While the STANDBY indicator lights red, the ampli- fier is in standby state waiting for 12V trigger signal.

8.Slowly increase the control amplifier volume.

Note:

After the amplifier is turned on, it takes approximately 10 seconds before the output sounds. During this time, do not turn up the volume.

Now all that remains is to control the control amplifier and the other connected system components and enjoy your music or movies.
