PA-150 - Getting Started

2 Getting Started

We recommend that you:

Unpack the equipment carefully and save the original box and packaging

materials for possible future shipment

Review the contents of this user manual

Go to http://www.kramerav.com/downloads/PA-150 to check for up-to-date

user manuals, application programs, and to check if firmware upgrades are

available (where appropriate).

2.1 Achieving the Best Performance

To achieve the best performance:

Use only good quality connection cables (we recommend Kramer high-

performance, high-resolution cables) to avoid interference, deterioration in

signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise levels (often

associated with low quality cables)

Do not secure the cables in tight bundles or roll the slack into tight coils

Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may adversely

influence signal quality

Position your Kramer PA-150 away from moisture, excessive sunlight and

dust

This equipment is to be used only inside a building. It may only be

connected to other equipment that is installed inside a building.

Figure 2: Connecting the PA-150 50W Power Amplifier

PA-150 - Connecting the PA-150

To connect the PA-150 as illustrated in the example in Figure 2:

1. Connect a balanced audio source, (for example, a PC) to the INPUT 3-pin

terminal block.

2. Connect the speaker(s) to the SPEAKER OUT 3-pin terminal block, (see

Section 5.3).

3. Connect a remote volume control, (for example, the W-LM) to the Remote

4-pin terminal block, (pins +V, LEVEL, and GND).

4. Connect a remote, momentary mute-switch to the Remote 4-pin terminal

block, (pins Mute and GND).

5. Connect the power adapter to the PA-150 and plug the power adapter into

the mains power supply.

5.2 Wiring the Inputs

Your PA-150 is provided with a 3-pin terminal block for its input connection. This

connector can accept either a balanced or an unbalanced signal however, some

modifications must be made for an unbalanced connection.

5.2.1 Wiring Balanced Inputs

When using a balanced input source and connector, you must ensure that the hot,

cold, and ground pins of the connector are matched up to the +, –, and ground

pins of the PA-150 terminal block connector respectively. The following diagrams

illustrate how to connect standard XLR and TRS connectors.
