Safety Operation Guide
In order to guarantee the reliable operation of the equipment and safety of the staff,
please abide by the following in installation, using and maintenance:
1) The system must be earthed properly. Please do not use two blade plugs and
ensure the alternating power supply ranged from 100v to 240v and from 50Hz to
60Hz.
2) Do not put the switcher in extreme temperatures.
3) As the power generates heat when running, the working environment should be
maintained with good ventilation, in case of damage caused by overheating.
4) Please turn off the general power switch in humid weather or if left unused for long
periods of time.
5) Before following operation, ensure that the alternating current wire is pull out of the
power supply:
Take off or reship any components of the equipment.
Take off or rejoin any pin or other link of the equipment.
6) As to non-professional or without permission, please DO NOT try to open the casing
of the equipment, DO NOT repair it on your own, in case of accident or increasing
the damage of the equipment.
7) DO NOT splash any chemicals or liquid onto the equipment.
8) NOTICE: Please read this user manual carefully before using this product. Pictures
shown in this manual are for reference only, different model and specifications are
subject to real product.
This manual is for operation instruction only, not for any maintenance usage. Any
changes of functions and parameters will be informed separately. Please refer to
the dealers for the latest details.

3.3 Audio Signal Connection
3.3.1 Audio Output
PA100V Power Amplifier supports mono audio output, and the output voltage is 70V or
100V. The end COM is for grounding. The amplifier to be connected is mono audio
output with a rated power at 40Watt, so PA100V Power Amplifier can be connected with
several speakers in parallel connection(Total power mustn’t be more than 40Watt).
The following figure shows us how to connect the speakers. Here we take the
100V/10W speakers as an example.

3.3.2 Audio Inputs
PA100V Power Amplifier provides with 2 stereo audio inputs, one microphone input and
one digital fiber audio input. The following figure shows the audio input ports.
Figure 5 Audio Input Ports
48V phantom power input
When the switch turns to “48V” (It has a good frequency characteristic, high input
impedance and high sensitivity in this mode), the MIC input will provide a 48V phantom
power. This is usually used for power supply for condenser microphone, Connection is:
“+” connects to positive, “-” connects to negative and “ ” to ground.
Note: In this mode, only condenser microphone can be connected.
MIC input
When the switch turns to “MIC” (It has a low frequency characteristics, and wide
frequency response in this mode), the microphone input is used for connecting with
dynamic microphone. There are two different connections:
a) Unbalanced connection:
“+” and “ ” connect to ground, and “-” connects to signal.

LINE input
When the switch turns to “LINE” (It has a low frequency characteristics, and wide
frequency response in this mode), the microphone input is used for connecting with
normal audio or wireless microphone output. There are two different connections:
a) Unbalanced connection:
“+” and “ ” connect to ground, and “-” connects to signal.
“-”and “ ” connect to ground, and “+” connects to signal.
b) Balanced connection: “+” connects to positive, “-” connects to negative and “ ”
connects to ground.
Digital Audio Input
PA100V Power Amplifier has a fiber optical port to connect with digital audio source
device. With the SPF optical fiber, the audio signal can be transmitted faster, more
stable, reliable, and can be transmitted over a long distance without distortion.
Notice: This digital audio input can support/decode PCM format signal only. If the
CD/DVD is DTS or AC3 format, please set the player to PCM format output before
connecting to PA100V Power Amplifier.
3.4 System Applications
PA100V Power Amplifier can be applied in different occasions, such as classroom,
small meeting room, lecture hall, bar and hotel etc.
