IMPORTANT SERVICE INFORMATION

Caution!

This service information is for use by qualified service personnel only. To avoid the risk of

!electric shock, do not perform any maintenance work that is not described in the operating instructions unless you are qualified to do so. Have all service work and repairs performed by a trained customer service technician.

1.Repair work on the device must comply with the safety standards specified in EN 60065 (VDE 0860).

4.The minimum distance between voltage-carrying parts and metal parts that can be touched (such as the metal housing) or between mains poles is 3 mm, and must be observed at all times.

5.The minimum distance between voltage-carrying parts and circuit parts that are not connected to the mains (secondary) is 6 mm, and must be observed at all times.

6.Special components that are marked with the safety symbol in the circuit diagram (note) must only be replaced with original parts.

7.Unauthorized changes to the circuitry are prohibited.

8.The protective measures issued by the relevant trade organizations and applicable at the place of repair must be observed. This includes the properties and configuration of the workplace.

9.Observe the guidelines with respect to handling MOS components.

SAFETY COMPONENT (MUST BE REPLACED BY ORIGINAL PART)

1.3Safety precautions

Speaker system damage and protection of human beings

Power amps provide extremely high power output that might be dangerous for human beings as well as for the connected speaker systems. High output voltages can damage or even destroy the connected speaker systems, especially, when the amplifier is operated in bridge mode. Prior to connecting any loudspeakers, make sure to check the speaker system’s specifications for continuous and peak power handling capacities. Even if amplification has been reduced through lowering the input level controls on the amplifier’s front panel, it is still possible to achieve full power output with a sufficiently high input signal.

Danger!

Danger at the loudspeaker/power outputs

Power amplifiers are capable of producing dangerously high voltage output that is present at the output connectors.

To protect yourself from electric shock, do not touch any blank speaker cables during operation of the power amp.

Danger!

The terminals marked with a lightning bolt are hazardous live and the external wiring connected to these terminals requires installation by an instructed person or the use of ready-made leads of cords.

Danger!

In case of using the amplifier with speakers including a primary tapped transformer, it is possible that during operation shock hazard voltages may be present at the taps of the transformer.

Therefore, the taps have to be insulated sufficiently in accordance with applicable safety regulations.

1.4High frequency interference – FCC/EN55032

IMPORTANT: Do not modify this unit! Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority, granted by the FCC, to operate the equipment.

Notice!

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules and EN55032. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.

1.5Notices

Old electrical and electronic appliances

Electrical or electronic devices that are no longer serviceable must be collected separately and sent for environmentally compatible recycling (in accordance with the European Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive).

To dispose of old electrical or electronic devices, you should use the return and collection systems put in place in the country concerned.

IT security disclaimer

In order to offer maximum compatibility with all networked audio devices and to allow for fast and easy setup and maintenance, our OMNEO-enabled amplifier products do not support encrypted communications for audio or control data and do not verify the authenticity of any Dante or OCA controllers (or any other node) on the network.

This means that these devices do not take any special precautions against malicious or accidental attacks via their network interfaces. Such attacks happen every day on the public internet. It is strongly recommended to set up the system in a safe, isolated network, meaning a network where all hardware components are known and physically owned and none of them is connected to the public internet.

Network cabling

The OMNEO network comprises audio transport using the Dante protocol as well as OCA control commands. In order to guarantee the product performance according to specifications, network cabling has to be shielded, fulfilling the requirements of CAT 5e as a minimum.

For integration in networks, the network switches require a dedicated configuration. Further details will be explained in the documentation of the related network control software.

3.3Unpacking and inspection

Carefully open the packaging and take out the power amplifier. Inspect the power amp’s enclosure for damages that might have happened during transportation. Each amplifier is examined and tested in detail before leaving the manufacturing site to ensure that it arrives in perfect condition at your place. Please inform the transport company immediately, if the power amplifier shows any damage. Being the addressee, you are the only person who can claim damages in transit. Keep the cardboard box and all packaging materials for inspection by the transport company.

Keeping the cardboard box including all packing materials is also recommended, if the power amplifier shows no external damages.

Caution!

!Do not ship the power amp in any other but its original packaging.

When shipping the power amp, make sure to always use its original box and packaging materials. Packing the power amplifier like it was packed by the manufacturer guarantees optimum protection from transport damage.
