PowerH SERIES 2.5 Ventilation As with all Dynacord power amps with fan cooling, the airflow direction is front-to-rear, obviously because there is more cold air outside of the rack case than inside. The power amplifier remains cooler and dissipating the developing waste heat in a specific direction gets easier. In general, setting up or mounting the power amplifier has to be done in a way that fresh air can enter unhindered at the front and exhausted air can exit at the rear. When installing the

The PARALLEL-LED lights yellow, when the ROUTING switch is set to PARALLEL. The PARALLEL LED does not light, when the switch is set to DUAL. The BRIDGED LED lights yellow, when the MODE switch is set to BRIDGED.

NORMAL In two-channel operation (NORMAL), both power amplifier blocks work as independent power amp channels and controlling the amplification of each channel separately is possible. How the power amp’s audio inputs handle input signals depends only on the setting of the ROUTING switch. BRIDGED In BRIDGED m
