Activating The Pa Zones; Alarm Siren; Protective Circuit - Monacor PA-6240 Manual De Instrucciones

6.2 Activating the PA zones

1) Switch on the zones to be used for PA appli-
cations with the buttons Z 1 – Z 6 (3) . As a check,
the green LEDs of the activated zones light up .
2) For announcements to all zones, press the but-
ton ALL CALL (4) . At the same time, the volume
of the zones is increased to maximum [corre-
sponds to the adjustment of all zone volume
switches (2) in position 6] .
6.3 Chime
The chime sounds prior to an announcement
when the TALK button at the desk microphone
PA-4000PTT / PA-4300PTT or at the zone paging
microphone PA-6000RC is pressed . When other
microphones are used, the chime can be activated
with the button CHIME (9) . Adjust the chime vol-
ume with the control LEVEL (10) .
With the jumper MS 1, it is possible to switch
between a 2-tone chime and a 4-tone chime, see
chapter 5 .2 .

6.4 Alarm siren

In case of an alarm it is possible to switch the siren
on with one of the two buttons (15) in the control
section SIREN:
Button "~" for a wailing tone
Button "−" for a continuous tone
Adjust the volume of the alarm siren with the
control LEVEL (14) .
6.5 Zone paging microphone
PA-6000RC
1) First switch on the PA zones in which the an-
nouncement are to be heard with the buttons
SPEAKER ZONES SELECTOR (57), otherwise no
announcement will be possible . To activate all
zones, press the button ALL CALL (58) .
2) For the announcement, keep the TALK but-
ton (55) pressed . The amplifier activates the
PA zones according to the preselection under
item 1) independent of the adjustments at the
amplifier and increases the volume in the zones
to maximum [corresponds to the adjustment of
all zone volume switches (2) to position 6] . After
the chime, make the announcement .
3) When using the digital message insertion
PA-1120DMT, a stored announcement can also
be called via the zone paging microphone if the
switch DIGITAL MESSAGE (48) is in position ON:
a) Select the stored announcement with the
selector switch MESSAGE BANK (56) .
b) Start the announcement with the button
START/ STOP (60) . To stop the announce-
ment, press the button START/ STOP again .
c) With the button REPEAT/ STOP (59), an an-
nouncement can also be made several times .
The number of repeats can be adjusted on
the insertion (see its operating instructions) .
To stop the announcement, press the button
REPEAT/ STOP again .
Notes:
1 . The announcement of the memory M 6 may be
locked (see chapter 4 .1 .1, item 9) . If in this case
the switch MESSAGE BANK is in position 6, the
announcement last selected is reproduced .
2 . If at least one zone button (3) has been pressed
at the amplifier, after releasing the TALK but-
ton, the announcement selected with the
switch MESSAGE BANK is likewise started . To
prevent this, leave a storage location of the
digital message insertion free or delete it and
select this storage location with the switch
MESSAGE BANK .
4) The three LEDs POWER, SEND, and BUSY (54)
give the following information:
POWER lights up when the amplifier is switched
on
SEND lights up when an announcement is
reproduced via the microphone or a
stored announcement is called
BUSY lights up with individual announcements
and with announcements via other con-
nected microphones PA-6000RC
6.6 Desk microphone
PA-4000PTT / PA-4300PTT
1) With the microphone PA-4000PT or PA-4300PTT
connected, the input 1 is no longer available .
As the microphone requires phantom power for
operation, press the switch PHANTOM POWER
(44) of input 1 .
2) If the chime is to sound prior to an announce-
ment when the button TALK is pressed, set the
switch CHIME on the rear side of the micro-
phone to the position ON (downwards) .
3) Set the switch PRIORITY to position ON when:
1 . the microphone is to take 2
2 . all PA zones are to be switched on and set to
maximum volume when pressing the TALK
button [as with button ALL CALL (4)]
3 . the connected emergency priority relays are
to respond (see chapter 5 .3 .10)
4) For an announcement keep the TALK button
pressed and wait for the chime, if necessary .

7 Protective Circuit

The amplifier is equipped with a protective circuit
against overload, overheating and short circuit at
the speaker outputs . The power amplifier is cooled
with a fan whose rotation speed depends on the
temperature of the power amplifier . If in spite of
this the temperature should increase too much, the
amplifier is muted and the red LED PROTECT (16)
lights up . In this case turn the control MASTER (17)
fully to zero, wait until the LED PROTECT is extin-
guished, and then switch off the amplifier . Eliminate
the fault, e . g .:
1 . In case of overload, reduce the number of speak-
ers connected or, if possible, adjust a lower
power consumption on the speakers . Insert a
second PA amplifier, if required (see chapter
5 .3 .6) .
2 . In case of overheating, provide a better air
circulation .
3 . In case of short circuit at a speaker output, locate
the position of the short circuit and eliminate it .
