USER MANUAL
1 TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION:
The STV series has amplifiers of 2 and 4 Class AB channels with direct
output (without transformer) at 100V. Available configurations are for 2 200W, 400W or 800W channels, and 4 200W or 400W channels.
Each amplifier channel includes connected loudspeaker line monitor and
protection functions against over-heating, clip and short-circuit, in addition to forced ventilation at variable speed.
The STV series has a graphical screen on the front panel that allows
configurating operation parameters, and the control and monitoring of the equipment. It also includes three general indicators: on/standby, link Ethernet (only for ETX-1 and ETX-1CN), and active priority input, and two indicators per channel: presence of signal/clip and state of channel (indicates 3 different states).
All versions comply with standard EN-UNE 60849 regarding voice
evacuation systems, since the operation of the audio channel, from the input to the output of the amplifier, is monitored with and without input signals to the system, therefore ensuring that it is available during an emergency.
All models have DSP per channel for audio control. In addition to the 2 or
4 inputs depending on the number of amplifier channels, they also include a priority input activated by means of an external operation.
The entire series includes an expansion bay to assemble remote control
and monitoring modules through Ethernet (ETX-1), or direct audio inputs through CobraNet (ETX-1CN). This module also includes the features of model ETX-1.
The dimensions of all products are the same for all possible channel
configurations, and can be installed on 2 19” rack units.

2 DESCRIPTION OF CONTROLS:
2.1 BEFORE SWITCHING THE DEVICE ON:
1- Make sure that the power supply circuits are properly dimensioned and that the power voltage is stable. To dimension the circuits, check the technical characteristics of the specific model.
2- Make sure there is correct air circulation from the front of the device towards the back, and avoid obstructing the air flow. This device has forced ventilation at variable speed depending on the dissipation needs, in order to maintain the best operation temperature. Blocking the air inlets or outlets can cause overheating of the device. In case of overheating the system will protect itself by cutting the audio signal until it recovers the optimum operating temperature.
3- Check that the loudspeaker lines connected to the amplifier channels exceed the minimum specified impedance for nominal channel power.

2.2 DESCRIPTION OF CONTROLS. FRONT PANEL:
1- Drill holes for assembly on 19” rack 2- “On / Standby” indicator “Standby”: The indicator light will be red. In this condition the device will
wait for the amplifier channels to be switched on. The unit’s control and monitoring elements remain active, allowing the configuration of all the operation parameters. This state is the same if the device is controlled remotely through an ETX series expansion module. In this mode, the level of consumption remains low.
“On”: The indicator light will be green. Before indicating “on”, the amplifier will check the whole system. If everything is correct, then it will go “on”.
3- “Priority” indicator: In normal operating mode, it will remain switched off. When the priority audio input is activated, the indicator light will be green.
4- “Link” indicator: In case the system uses an expansion module of the ETX series, the light will be orange to indicate that there exists correct communication with the LDA remote control system.
5- 128x64 LCD Screen: It allows controlling and monitoring the system locally. It has contrast and intensity control, and also incorporates dynamic backlighting correction depending on the lighting of the place where the equipment is located, thus providing optimum display conditions. It includes screensaver configuration and turn-off timer to save energy.
6- Navigation control: It consists of five keys, four for direction and one for confirmation to navigate through the system’s configuration and monitoring menus. Any parameter that needs to be modified must be confirmed by pressing the “OK” key.

8- Air inlets for forced ventilation of the amplifier channels, and general temperature of the device
9- “CLIP/SIGNAL” and “STATUS” Channel indicators: “CLIP/SIGNAL”: Indicates the signal level of audio channel X. A green
light indicates a normal level of audio signal output; an orange light indicates a high output level, and a red light indicates “CLIP” output signal.
“STATUS”: Indicates the status of the amplifier channel:
-If the indicator light is red continuously: The amplifier channel is in the mode due to some problem detected during its operation. In this case, check that there is no problem of overheating by monitoring the temperature with the appropriate menu. If the problem is overheating, check that the connected voltage corresponds to the unit’s specifications, and that the air inlets/outlets are not blocked or obstructed. If the problem is not due to overheating, turn the system off by pressing the “power” button on the back and contact the LDA Authorised Technical Service.
If the indicator light is red intermittently: It indicates a transitory channel state due to some problem detected in the loudspeaker lines with which the amplifier channels are loaded. In this case, check that the loudspeaker lines are not diverted or in short-circuit.
If the indicator light is orange: The amplifier channel does not have any load, the load is of very high impedance, or the loudspeaker line has an open-circuit fault.
If the indicator light is green: The amplifier channel is working in optimum conditions.

4 WORKING DECRIPTION:
4.1 PRIORITY INPUT:
The amplifiers of STV series include a priority input, at least, which is activated by means of manoeuvre or by noise-door -- setting threshold--. If the priority input is activated, the Priority indicator shows it from the front panel. At this moment, all amplifiers channels conmute with this input. Then, these channels will return to the previous status if the shoot condition turns to Stand-by.
If the amplifier of STV series has got an ETX-1CN module placed in, it will have two priority inputs. One of these inputs is the same which is described below and the another one is due to CobraNetTM, where all the channels will conmute with if the audio signal is detected. The channels will return into their previous status when the condition be on Stand-by. The priority levels are selected from the most priority to the less priority, they are Priority Input, Priority Input via CobraNet TM and audio input for the corresponding channel.
4.2 SETTING BY USB:
STV series amplifiers have a USB port in order to make easy the parameters setting. The setting interface needs the Driver required for each Operative System -- MICROSOFT WINDOWS XP / VISTA / 7 (32bit) / 7 (64bit)--.

5 ETX SERIES MODULES:
5.1 TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION:
The expansion modules of the LDA ETX series allow the STV series to enlarge their integration and connectivity features. Both modules are insertable, exchangeable and easy to install in the system, thanks to a sole 40-wire ribbon cable connector with polarity.
5.1.1
ETX-1 MODULE:
The ETX-1 module enables controlling and monitoring the STV series monitors through Ethernet. All the functions of the amplifier, controlled with the front panel menu, can be remotely operated.
When an amplifier of the STV series is controlled remotely, the local controls (located both on the front panel and on the back) remain blocked.
If the remote control communication is established correctly, this will be indicated by the “Link” LED on the amplifier’s front panel.
31

USER MANUAL
5.1.2
ETX-1CN MODULE:
The ETX-1CN module includes all the features of the ETX-1 module. It also allows fitting the STV series amplifiers with direct CobraNetTM inputs.
When an ETX-1CN module is connected to an STV amplifier, the CobraNetTM audio inputs are selected as default inputs to the amplifier channels. These audio inputs can be changed to analogue by means of remote configuration.
The ETX-1CN module has two “COBRANET” inputs, a main one and a reserve. When the first input (on the left) losses communication with the network, for example because a switch has fallen, the ETX-1CN module will try to connect through the second “COBRANET” input. This is useful to ensure greater security in case of digital audio network redundancy.
The ETX-1CN module can be configured from the equipment’s front panel or remotely.

8 AVERAGE TIME FOR REPAIRING , MTBF:
The event or average time for repairing curve shows that the failure concentration is located at the beginning and at the end of this life-time curve. For that reason, the average time for repairing could be calculated. This curve could be modified due to changes in the environment, it is recommended to put attention in the changes of external agents over the installation.
The same techniques and standards are used since the maximum level of difficulty to the minimum level, it means to the last level of each components. This complete study over the esteemed average time and life-time allows to obtain a rate, which will be applied for the final product. The rate could be calculated by different standardized equations for obtaining the esteemed life­time, being this result modified to become in a real value. This real value is conditioned by real working time of components and electrical and physics stress under normal working.
The theoretical result is modified by real tests and corrections through out a serious control of failures. All failures are controlled and registered for each product in order to compare the precision of the calculated previsions. The horizontal distribution allows to detect the failure in other equipments before the failure appearance.
Next table stores different equipment models together with their esteemed average time for repairing following the calculation described below:
