A460H - Setup and Installation

Setup and Use

Installation

Each unit requires a space of 1.75 inch (44mm) high, 8.7 inch (221mm) wide with 10.47 inch (266mm)

depth and may be mounted on a flat surface or in a rack enclosure.

Install the unit away from heat sources, such as vents and radiators, and in rooms with adequate

ventilation. Ensure that air can circulate freely behind, beside, and above the unit where possible. Do not

exceed the ambient operating temperature of 104° F (42°C). Be aware of conditions in an enclosed rack

that may cause the temperature to exceed ambient room conditions.

Rack Mounting

The unit ships with one 1.75 inch (44mm) high and 19 inch (483mm) wide rack mount panel. This is

designed to connect up to two A460H amplifiers. The rack mount kit includes eight screws, four nuts and

a faceplate.

Rack mounting the amplifiers is achieved by aligning the supplied rack panel faceplate holes with the

corresponding holes in the front of the amplifier and screwing them together.

If only one amplifier is used, then the additional four supplied screws and nuts may be used to ‘blank off’

the four remaining open holes in the rack panel.

Mounting the faceplate using screws with washers (not supplied) will prevent marring of the front panel.

Custom mounting

Mounting holes that fit four #4 sheet metal screws (not supplied) are available on the top cover of the

amplifier.

Operational guidelines

CAUTION

All speaker wiring connections should be made by qualified personnel and with the amplifier power removed. The 100V output

requires Class 3 wiring. Please refer to a qualified electrician or other qualified person according to local codes.

NOTE

Any screws used must not exceed ¼ inch (6mm) depth into the top of the A460H enclosure

A460H - Rear Panel Overview

AC Power Socket

Provides for connection of the appropriate power cord. Each amplifier uses a switch mode power supply

that has an operating voltage of 100-240V at 50/60 Hz.

Amplifier Output Connections

Speaker Connection

To minimize power loss, use a speaker cable of appropriate gauge for the load impedance. For long

speaker cables, choose a low capacitance cable to minimize high frequency loss. Use the supplied plug-

in barrier strip connectors to connect loudspeaker outputs. If stranded speaker wire is used, be sure to

incorporate all strands into the connector, as stray strands can short to the adjacent terminal or chassis.

Do not leave excessive bare wire outside the terminals, as this can lead to shorts. Use of the supplied

cable restraints is required to secure the cable in the connector. To facilitate parallel wiring, each

connector allows for the connection of two conductors to each amplifier channel.

CAUTION

Do not remove or defeat the ground prong on the power cord, as this will constitute a shock hazard. Equipment should be

connected to a mains socket outlet with a protective earthing connection. This plug is the main disconnecting device and should

remain readily operable. There are no user interchangeable parts. Please contact Biamp Technical Support or your local distributor

for all service requirements.

CAUTION

All speaker wiring connections should be made by qualified personnel and with the amplifier power removed. The 100V output

requires Class 3 wiring. Please refer to a qualified electrician or other qualified person according to local codes.

A460H – Connections

Input Wiring

All wiring examples are Single Channel Connections

Balanced Input Connections

Unbalanced Input Connections

Speaker Wiring

All wiring examples are Single Channel Connections

Single Channel 4 or 8 ohm

Bridged mode 4 or 8 ohm

Bridged mode 70/100V

A460H - Setup

Gain staging

The amplifier channels are intended to be used with the default output blocks available in Tesira Software.

Care should be taken to match the speaker load to the output capabilities (wattage) of the amplifier. For example, if a

low-impedance single channel speaker load is 60 watts you are perfectly matched at the nominal input level.

Speaker loads less than the rated output of the amplifier will require adjustment to the analog output of the output

device.

Low impedance considerations

Single Channel Mode

In Single Channel mode - up to four 60 watt channels can be driven at 4 or 8 Ohms at the same time.

Bridge and 70/100V Mode

In Bridged or CV mode (Constant Voltage mode, or 70/100V mode), channel 1 and 2 as well as 3 and 4

can be independently bridged together. Inputs 1 and 3 should be used.

Constant Voltage considerations

There is no wiring or switch setup difference between 70V and 100V operation.

When using the amplifier in

Constant Voltage mode, the CV, Bridge, and HPF switches must be enabled. The amplifier only supports

Constant Voltage mode when the amplifier channels are bridged.

For 70V operation the nominal signal being sent from the output device to the amplifier input should be 0dbu.

For 100V operation increasing the nominal signal being sent from the output device to the amplifier input should be

+1.6dbu.

Note

To keep correct input level and noise floor ratio the use of the ‘Full Scale’ analog output attenuation on the output device should be

used to adjust the input gain being sent to the amplifier

Note

The HPF (High Pass Filter) switch should be enabled as part of the 70V or 100V configuration.

The Bridge switch must be enabled when using the amplifier in 70V or 100V mode.
