The loudspeaker load is connected only to the designated positive (+) output terminals of the bridged channels. NEVER ground either side of the loudspeaker load cable when the amplifier is in Bridged Mode as both sides are “hot.” If an output patch panel is used‚ all connections must be isolated from each other and from the panel. When using the
Note: Regardless of operating mode‚ NEVER connect the amplifier outputs together.
Caution: Output voltages greater than 120 V RMS are available between the bridged terminals. CLASS 3 wiring must be used in accordance with national and local codes to connect the loudspeaker system.
Warning: The loudspeaker output connections of this amplifier are hazardous when live and present a shock hazard when they are energized. Take the following
precautions:
1.Do not touch any bare wires that are connected to the loudspeaker output connectors.
2.Use insulated loudspeaker cables and
3.Do not attempt to make connections to the output connectors or the loudspeaker connectors when the amplifier is turned ON.
4.
5.Make sure there are no frayed cables or wires and that all connections are tight and secure every time before turning the amplifier on.
6.External wiring connected to these terminals requires installation by a trained person or the use of
Each channel of the CM™
This mode allows each output of the channel pair to drive a 4 or 8 Ohm loudspeaker load. Use Bridged Mode (See Bridged Mode section) to deliver the power of both channels to a single 8 Ohm load such as a subwoofer.
This mode allows each output of the channel pair to directly drive a 70 Volt
