9. Dipswitch "A" Positions 1-6
Understanding the functionality of the dipswitches is key to getting the most out of the AA120/AA240.
Whether the switch is in the "Up" or "Down" position is critical to the function of the amplifi er. Note:
Mispositioning any of these switches may cause harm to the speakers or amplifi er. We recommended
all levels be turned down prior to making any switch selections. Pay close attention to the two
assignment charts and manual for proper settings.

Dipswitch 1- LOW CUT – When in the "ON" position, frequencies below 400Hz are attenuated
at the rate of 6dB per octave. Note: The rotary bass control is bypassed when the LOW CUT fi lter
is on. We suggest that when paging horns are connected to the AA120/AA240, engage the LOW
CUT fi lter to prevent the horns from operating below their cut off frequency. When "OFF", the
amplifi er operates full bandwidth.
Dipswitch 2-6 - MUTE RCV (RECEIVE) – When "ON", Input's 2-6 signals will be muted
upon a signal present on Input 1 (Refer to Number 11 Input 1 Sens), or a contact closure on the
remote mute terminals (Refer to Number 15 Remote Mute).

Dipswitch 6 - When set the "Tel/Line" position, Input 1 sensitivity is suitable for telephone
paging and line level signals. When set to the "Mic" position, the sensitivity is set for microphone
signals.
Dipswitch 7 - When set to the "OFF" position, PHANTOM POWER is turned off on INPUTS
1-5. When set to the "ON" position, PHANTOM POWER (24VDC) is available on INPUTS 1-5
(mic position only).
Dipswitch 8 - When set to the "Master" position, the VCA control port acts as a over all system
remote volume control, adjusting all the input channels present on the master section mix bus up
or down simultaneously. When set to the "Input 6" position, the VCA remote control port affects
only the level of INPUT 6.
11. Input 1 Sens
This control adjusts how sensitive the mute send circuitry on INPUT 1 reacts. Setting the control fully
counter-clockwise will lower the sensitivity, and a higher amplitude signal will be required at INPUT 1
to trigger the mute send circuits. Fully clockwise will raise the sensitivity of the mute circuits, where a
lower amplitude signal will trigger a mute send. Careful calibration of this control may be required to
fully utilize the mute circuits’ capabilities. Adjustment of this control should occur after the input trim
(12) for channel 1 is set.

14. VCA
Remote location of the level control can be accomplished via the VCA control port. You can control
the overall level (Master) or just Input 6. This selection is made via Dipswitch "B" position #8. Connect
the two leads from the optional remote volume control to these terminals. This remote level control
is POST Master and Input 5 Level Controls. Set the system's maximum levels using the amplifier level
controls and then use the remote VCA potentiometer as an attenuator from the maximum levels set.
See the VCA setup section for instructions on wiring the potentiometer.
15. Remote Mute
The Remote Mute feature is useful when the background system needs to be muted from a remote
location. When shorting the Remote Mute terminals together, (G) to (M), the assigned channels will
be muted. Note: Input 1 cannot be VOX or remote muted at anytime. Dipswitches 2-5 settings
determine which inputs are to receive the Mute trigger. To trigger the mute it is common to use an
external contact closure or switch on a microphone.
16. Zone 2 Output – 600Ω
The 600Ω 1.5V (Zone 2 Out) output is typically connected to a PBX MUSIC ON HOLD port, also
known as MOH. The ZONE 2 output gets its signal from INPUT 6, volume control.
17. Zone 2 Output – 1 Watt 8Ω
The 8Ω 1W Zone 2 output can drive an external 8Ω speaker, and is taken Pre input 6 gain control.
Use the 1W 8Ω terminals for connection to an external speaker.
18. Bridge In/Out
Certain installations have the need to combine one or more mixers together. These mixers may be
in different rooms of an install but have the need to share a page or music throughout the installation.
These terminals provide a way to send and receive balanced line level signals from the internal mix
bus of the AA120/AA240. The "BRIDGE IN/OUT" feature is PRE Tone Controls and Low Cut Filter
The Bridge In/Out feature allows you to send and receive a balanced signal. This is important for
allowing longer distances between the mixers.Note: This function should only be used with other Atlas
Sound mixers that have this feature. The Send and Receive signals are combined through the same
terminals. To activate this feature, see number 19 Bridge Select.

19. Bridge Select
The "Bridge Select (Sel)" terminals are the access point to activate the "Bridge In/Out" feature. To
activate the feature connect the two points together via an external contact closure. These two points
must be connected to send or receive any signal. By connecting the Bridge In/Out terminals of two
AA120/AA240's, a simple room combining system can be accomplished. If using a remote switch and
closing it, the "Bridge Select (Sel)" will combine the amps as one, opening the switch will separate
the two amps. Note: If combining 3 or 4 mixers together the output level will have to be adjusted
before and after Bridge Sel terminals are connected (shorted) together. We suggest utilizing the
Remote Level control when using this feature.

20. Input 1
Balanced mic or line level signals connect to the (+) (–) and (G) terminals. Refer to the chart above
"Multi Function Dipswitch" for the following setting. Dipswitch 6, labeled Input 1 must be set to the
proper position for mic or Tel/Line level. If you are connecting an unbalanced line level input, tie
(short) the (G) and (–) terminals together. An optional Input Isolation Transformer is available if a
ground loop problem exists. See page 20 for transformer installation. Contact Atlas for more details
on the Input Isolation Transformer.
Note: Input 1 cannot be muted from other channels. This channel is the VOX mute send to the other
inputs that are set to Mute Receive. The sensitivity and threshold for the VOX send works in
conjunction with the Input 1 Trim and the Input 1 Sens.
21. Inputs 2-5
Inputs 2-5 are balanced, line or mic level (Refer to Dipswitch Bank 1-8 for setting input sensitivity). For
wiring unbalanced inputs, tie (short) the (G) and (–) terminals together.
22. Input 6
INPUT 6 consists of a pair of stereo summing, line level inputs. Connect unbalanced audio outputs
here such as CD players or audio from DVD players.

23. Line Out A/B
The LINE OUT connector is useful for providing unbalanced line level signal to another amplifier or
other external devices. Prior to using this feature one must understand where the internal signal pick
up point is so you can decide if it is correct for your application. We suggest you refer to the block
diagram of the AA120/AA240 to have a complete understanding of the signal flow.
Note the following conditions for LINE OUT
A. Pre Low Cut Filter
B. Post Tone Controls (meaning the settings for the Bass and Treble controls affect this signals
output). Note: Refer to “Low Cut Filter Switch for complete understanding of the LCF feature.
C. Post Amp In (meaning any signal that is inserted into the Pre AMP In jack will be present at
the Line Out).
24. Tape Out A/B
Line level mono signals are available at this jack for connection to recording devices. The signal
available here is PRE tone control and low cut filter and comes from the internal mix bus.
25. Pre Out
The PRE OUT connector has Post tone control signals available to drive another power amp or
external audio devices. Use in conjunction with the AMP IN connector, an effects loop can be created
by connecting the PRE OUT jack to a device such as an equalizer then back out to the AMP IN
connector. See the connection diagram in the setup section of this manual.
26. Pwr In
The AMP IN connector is useful for converting the AA120/AA240 into a slave amp. When a line level
signal is connected to this input, the internal connection between the preamp and internal power amp
is broken. The AA120/AA240 is now just a power amplifier, amplifying audio signals applied to this
connector.

QUICK START EXAMPLES
Example 1 — System Paging, BGM, and MOH with Remote Master Level Control
This application has the paging microphone into INPUT 1, BGM (CD player) into Input 2, and a Message
Repeater or MOH into Input 6. The Zone 2 Output is sent to the telephone system's MOH input port. A
level control is placed in another area such as a front desk to adjust the system’s level without having to
go the equipment room. When a page comes through Input 1, the BGM is muted allowing only paging to
be heard through the main system. The MOH is not affected during the page.
• Connect a paging mic to INPUT 1. Set Dipswitch "B" #6, "Input 1" to the "Mic" position. Note: The
INPUT 1 Trim and Sens will need to be adjusted after all the settings and connections have been
set.
• Connect a BGM (CD) player to INPUT 2.
• Set Dipswitch "A" #6, "Mute Rcv" to the "ON" position.
• Connect a Message Repeater or MOH device to INPUT 6. Note: The input gain of this channel may
need to be change for proper level balance. Dipswitch "B" #1, "Input 6" allows you to select between
a 100mV or 300mV input sensitivity. Turn down channel 6 gain control on the front panel.
• Connect Zone 2 output to the MOH input on your telephone. Adjust the Zone 2 Output level as
needed.
• Connect a wall mount volume control (Atlas p/n AAVCC-10K) to the terminals marked "VCA". Set
Dipswitch "B" #8, "VCA" to "Master".

AA120/AA240 MIXER AMPLIFIER
OWNER'S MANUAL
Example 2 - Hotel Room Combining Using Two AA120s/AA240s
This example utilizes the combining feature of the Atlas AA120/AA240 mixer amplifiers. The drawing
below shows the equipment connections for two hotel ballrooms, separated by a moveable air wall. The
hotel needs to be able to have the audio system operate as one large unit (air wall open) or two discreet
systems (air wall closed). As indicated in the example, a BGM CD player is shared between the two
AA120s/AA240s, via a "Y" cable, connected to input 6 of each mixer amp. The Bridge terminals of both
amplifiers are connected together, through a DPST switch that makes (combines) or breaks (separates)
the Bridge connections between the amplifiers. When the switch is closed, any audio signal into either
amp will be present at both amplifier's speaker outputs. A volume control and DPST switch (see drawing
for clarity) controls the background music level and turns the music on or off in each room. For emergency
evacuation purposes, a signal from the hotel's fire alarm system is connected to channel 1 of both
amplifiers, with the mute sensitivity adjusted as needed. All other channels are set for mute receive and
will mute when the siren tone is present on channel 1.
