1. Depending on the individual application the amplifier can be used in different operation modes Stereo mode The two amplifier channels operate independently of one another either channel A and B is amplified and connected to loudspeakers the volume can Oo gt q be controlled separately for the two outputs The two amplifier channels receive the same input signal from channel A and loudspeakers are connected to each amplifier The volume is controlled via the a control knob for channel A Bridged mode The two amplifier channels are internally connected in such a way that twice o p q the output power is available Only the input signal from channel A is amplified and loudspeakers are connected only to the correspondingly marked output The volume is controlled via the control knob for channel A Proline 3000 th mann MUSIC IS OUR PASSION 15 Installation and starting up themann MUSIC IS OUR PASSION For each output of the amplifier the total impedance resulting from the loudspeakers con nected to it must not be below the allowed minimal impedance of the amplifier output If you connect more than one loudspeaker to an amplifier output please note the following M If the loudspeakers are connected in a series the individual impedances will be added up If the loudspeakers are connected in parallel the reciprocal of the total impedance equals the sum2. of the reciprocals of the individual impedances Example If you have two loudspeakers with the same impedance their impedance doubles if they are connected in a series their impedance halves if they are connected in parallel For detailed information related to this topic please refer to our Online Guide PA Speakers www thomann de power amplifier 16 Connections and operating elements 4 Connections and operating elements Front panel Proline 3000 th mann MUSIC IS OUR PASSION 17 Connections and operating elements 1 POWER Mains switch to turn the unit on and off 2 CHANNEL A CHANNEL B Volume control for the respective channel 3 LED indicators CLIP Lights up subject to one of the following conditions Overloading In this case reduce the volume until the LED turns off M Output short circuit Turn off the unit immediately fix the short circuit and turn the power back on SGL Indicates an incoming input signal themann power amplifier MUSIC IS OUR PASSION 18 PRO STR PAR BRI Connections and operating elements Lights up subject to one of the following conditions Three to five seconds after turning on or off when the unit is in an unstable status No speaker is connected The temperature of the power amp blocks has reached 85 C 185 F One or more protection circuits have been activated or the device is defective Lights up when the unit is operated in stereo
