OVERVIEW

The Redback® A 4270 125 Watt and A 4280 250 Watt 4 Zone paging amplifiers are specifically designed for multi zone applications. Based on the popular Redback® A 4377 and A 4387 amplifier series, these amplifiers have three inputs which can be configured for either microphone or line level. The addition of zone paging is made possible by connecting Redback® A 4488 paging consoles to the amplifier. The amplifiers have a main 100V speaker output plus as additional four separate 100V output speaker loads, each of which has provision for background music which can be overriddden by the A 4488 paging microphones.
The Redback® A 4270 conservatively delivers 125W RMS power, while the A 4280 delivers 250W RMS. Frequency response extends from 50Hz to 15kHz ±3dB at a total harmonic distortion (THD) of less than 0.5% @ 1kHz.
Vox muting is provided on inputs one and two, which, when activated, automatically mutes the other inputs. Bass andtreble controls and phantom powering capability enable unparalleled flexibility for a wide scope of applications such as factories, workshops, mine sites, sports clubs and office buildings.
The amplifiers operate from 240V AC mains or 24V DC permitting battery backup operation during mains power failure.
The output comes standard suitable for a 100V line load, but this can be configured internally to 70V line or low impedance (4 – 16Ω) loads.
Thermal overload, overcurrent and overload protection circuitry and fuses on both AC and DC provide excellent fault condition protection and robust performance. The amplifier also utilises a half power mode which enables the amplifier to continue to run at a reduced output level if it is being over driven.
Tape output sockets are provided for recording purposes or feeding into additional power amplifiers.
Remote volume available when A 4373 Digital volume control module fitted internally and external A 2280B wall plate or 1KΩ potentiometer connected.
MP3 based Alert and Evacuation tones along with chime tones and voice over message are built standard functions of the amplifiers.

POWER SUPPLY

The amplifier operates on 230V AC or primarily for battery backup operation a 24V DC supply. Ensure power is switched OFF at the front panel before connecting either mains power to the IEC socket or 24V DC to the screw terminal input. As high currents may be drawn when operating from a 24V DC supply confirm the capacity of the DC power supply used.

PHANTOM POWER

All three microphone inputs have DIP switch selectable phantom power. When enabled 15V DC will be connected to the Hot and Cold pins of the corresponding XLR. To access the DIP switches, first disconnect power from the unit and then remove the lid. The location of the DIP switches is shown in figure 4.

The Phantom power DIP switch settings are:
DIP 1 enables the phantom power to the XLR connector on input 1.
DIP 2 enables the phantom power to the XLR connector on input 2.
DIP 3 enables the phantom power to the XLR connector on input 3.
DIP 4 is not used.

VOX MUTING

Vox muting is provided on inputs one and two, which, when activated, automatically mutes the other inputs.
The VOX1 switch when set to ON will allow input 1 to mute inputs 2 & 3. This will also override the A 4488 paging consoles (if connected).
The VOX2 switch when set to ON will allow input 2 to mute input 3.
The VOX sensitivity is adjusted by the trimpots located on the front of the amplifier (see figure 1).

REMOTE VOLUME (Optional)

It is possible to control the master volume with the addition of the A 4373 Digital Remote volume board and a 1kΩ potentiometer (or Altronics A 2280B wall plate) fitted across the terminals labelled “Optional Plugin” on the rear of the amplifier. The plugin board is fitted inside the amplifier in the location shown in figure 4.
NOTE: Take special care with the orientation of the board and remove power from the amplifier before fitting.

About 70V & 100V Line Speaker Systems

Wiring speakers in parallel for 70/100V line: Where several speakers are to be used at one time, on one circuit, it becomes necessary to use speakers fitted with line-matching transformers. This is to overcome the effects of connecting speakers in parallel and cable losses. The amplifier generally has an output voltage of 100 volts (70 volts is typically used in North America, however operation is similar). In this configuration the total wattage load on the amplifier is derived from adding all the line transformer primary tap ratings together. For example, 70 one watt speakers will have a total speaker load of 70 watts. Or alternatively, it is conceivable to connect 100 one watt speakers to a 100 watt, 100 volt line amplifier.
Measuring 70/100V Line Speaker Impedance: To measure amplifier system load, you must use an impedance meter in order to measure the ac resistance of the connected speaker network. Impedance cannot be measured with a standard multimeter, as this measures the dc resistance. Use the Altronics Q 2004 or similar impedance meter

SPEAKER CONNECTIONS

Speakers fitted with 100V line transformers may be connected to the output terminals on the rear of the amplifer. Always ensure the total load of the fitted speakers does not exceed the rated output of the amplifier (ie 125 watts for the A 4270 and 250 watts for the A 4280 amplifier) otherwise damage may result. When fitting speakers with line transformers the impedance of the load cannot be measured using a standard multimeter. An impedance meter (such as the Altronics Q 2004) is required. Fig 5 lists the impedance at certain loads of speakers fitted with 70V and 100V line transformers. So for a total load of 125 watts using 100V line transformer fitted speakers, the impedance of the speaker load should be 80Ω. Fig 6 shows a typical install where the A 4270 has all five outputs connected to 100V line speakers and two Redback® A 4488 Paging consoles connected to the RJ45 ports.
NOTE: The total load of all speakers must not exceed the total load rating of the amplifier.
Audio from the amplifier is output to the main 100V Out terminals and is not affected by the A 4488 paging consoles.

The audio from the amplifier can also be piped to any of the 100V zone outputs 1- 4 and used as background music to that zone. This is achieved by pressing the “BGM Output Select” switches on the front of the amplifier. If paging is required to these zones then the Redback® A 4488 paging consoles can be connected as shown. The paging consoles provide paging to all four output zones and will override the background music to those zones (refer to section 13.0 for more details).

The total speaker load must not exceed the rated output of the amplier. A 4270 – 125 Watts A 4280 – 250 Watts

RJ45 cabling configuration (586A ‘Straight through’)
The A 4488 paging consoles are connected to the amplifier using “pin to pin” configuration RJ45 data cabling as shown in fig 7. When installing ensure all connections are verified with a LAN cable tester before switching any system component on.
Failure to follow the correct wiring configuration may result in damage to system components. and will Void the warranty.

DIP switches 2-4 set the paging console ID number.
NOTE: The ID must be set to either ID1 or ID2 when using the
A 4488 with the A 4270 or A 4280 amplifier.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Ensure power is switched off when adjusting DIP switches.
New settings will be effective when power is switched back on.

A 4488 GENERAL PAGING

To page to a zone select the desired zone/s by pressing the buttons 1- 4 or by pressing the “All Call” button if all zones are desired. Make sure the switch is in the centre position before selecting the zones. The selected zones’ LED’s will illuminate to indicate they have been pressed. Move the “Push to talk” switch down to the “Page” position and speak into the microphone. Release the PTT switch when finished. The selected zones’ LED’s will flash for a few seconds after paging has finished. While these LED’s are still flashing paging can be directed to these zones again by simply moving the PTT switch back to the “Page” position.

If two paging consoles are connected to the system one console will be “Locked Out” when the other is in use.

Paging to the selected zones will override the background music to those zones, if the BGM was selected to be active by the amplifier front panel switches.

Note: If the VOX1 switch is set to ON, input 1 will override the A 4488 paging consoles.

BACKGROUND MUSIC (REAR OF A 4488 PAGING CONSOLE)

Background music to the four output zones is primarily fed from the audio output of the amplifier and selected by the front panel switches. But the background music can also be fed from the rear of the A 4488 paging consoles.

This second method involves connecting an audio source (such as a mobile phone, tablet etc.) to the 3.5mm input jack on the rear of the paging microphone as shown in Figure 10. This provides a local source of background music.

To activate the background music, first make sure the Push to Talk (PTT) switch is in the centre position and then select the zones to receive the background music. The selected zones LED indicators will flash to signify they have been selected.

Next move the PTT switch to the up position which is lablelled “Lock On”. While the switch is in this position and only this position will the background music will be piped out to the zones selected.

The volume is adjusted by the BGM volume trimpot on the rear of the microphone.

If the PTT switch is moved to the “Page” position the background music will stop and paging will be active.

If the PTT switch is in the centre position the BGM and paging are not active.

If background music is required again to the same zones as previously selected, then all thats needed to initiate it again is to move the PTT switch back to the “Lock On” position.

If the BGM is to be piped to different zones then it is only a matter of selecting the new zones, and then moving the PTT switch to the “Lock On” position.

Connecting an audio source to the BGM input

ALERT, EVACUATION and CHIME MP3 FILES and ALERT and EVAC VOICE OVER

MESSAGES

The supplied MIcro SD card houses all the MP3 audio files used for the output tones. These files are stored in five separate folders (see figure 5) and relate to the corresponding output. e.g. the Alert folder houses the MP3 file to be played when the Alert mode is triggered.

These files can be any length and bit rate, but must be in MP3 format (they cannot be Wav files or AAC files).

Note 1 : MP3 files should have the following specifications for optimum performance. 128kbps, 44.1kHz, 32bit, VBR or CBR, Stereo (even better as mono).
Note 2 : only one MP3 file can be in each folder.

There is also a folder labelled “#LIBRARY# which contains a host of sample MP3 files.

The “Voice” folder contains the MP3 audio files played as the Alert and Evacuation messages. There are separate folders for both the Alert and Evacuation messages as shown in figure 11.

The messages have to be recordered in MP3 format using any readily available PC software or other means, and then transferred to these folders.

Activating the Voice Over Message:
Voice over messages become active when an MP3 file is present in the relevant folder. If the voice over message is not required leave the folder empty.

INSTALLING MP3 FILES

You will first need to remove power from the amplifier then remove the Micro SD card from the rear of the unit. To remove the Micro SD card push the card in and it will eject itself.
In order to access the program, the Micro SD card will need to be connected to a PC. You will need a PC or laptop equipped with an Micro SD card reader to do this. If a Micro SD slot is not available then the Altronics D 0371A USB Memory Card Reader or similar would be suitable (not supplied).

Step by step guide to installing an MP3 onto the Micro SD card with a Windows installed PC

Make sure the PC is on and card reader connected and correctly installed. Then insert the SD card into the reader.

Go to “My Computer” or “This PC” and open the SD card which is usually marked “Removable disk”.

In this case it is named “Removable disk (O:) as shown in figure 12.

Open the Removable Disk and you should get a window that looks like figure 13.

The contents of the SD Card include a Library folder of sample MP3 files and five folders for the MP3 files associated with the various triggers.
There should be default MP3 files included in each folder. These will need to be replaced with your own MP3 files.
Open the folder in which you want to install an MP3 (in our case its the Alert folder) and you should see an MP3 file which is named Alert.MP3 as shown in figure 14.

MP3 file name is not important. But it is important that there is only one MP3 file in the Alert folder.
Check the properties of the MP3 file.
NOTE the new MP3 file cannot be “Read only”.
To check this, right click on the MP3 file and scroll down and select Properties, you will get a window that looks like figure 15.
Make sure the “Read Only” box has no tick in it.
The new MP3 is now installed on the card. Repeat these steps for the other MP3 folders if you need to.
The card can be removed from the PC following windows safe card removal procedures. Make sure the amplifier is OFF and insert the SD card into the slot in the rear; it will click when fully inserted. The amplifier is ready to use.\

DIP SWITCH SETTINGS

These switches affect the alert/evac triggers on the rear of the amplifier.
Switch 1: The Alert and Evac contacts can be set to either continuous or momentary operation.
In continuous mode the alert/evac tone will continue while the corresponding rear contact is triggered.
In momentary mode the alert/evac tone will continue to sound after a momentary trigger of the rear contact.
1 – ON: continuous operation of alert/evac contacts
1 – OFF: momentary operation of alert/evac contacts

Switches 2 – 4 Evacuation Timer Settings:
These switches control the time period before the unit switches from the alert, to the evac tone when the Alert is triggered by the rear contact. This time period can be switched from 30 seconds to 180 seconds in 30 second increments.
Sw2 = ON, Sw3 = OFF, Sw4 = OFF – Changeover = 30 Sec
Sw2 = OFF, Sw3 = ON, Sw4 = OFF – Changeover = 60 Sec
Sw2 = ON, Sw3 = ON, Sw4 = OFF – Changeover = 90 Sec
Sw2 = OFF, Sw3 = OFF, Sw4 = ON – Changeover = 120 Sec
Sw2 = OFF, Sw3 = ON, Sw4 = ON – Changeover = 150 Sec
Sw2 = ON, Sw3 = ON, Sw4 = ON – Changeover = 180 Sec
Note: Setting all switches 2 – 4 to OFF deactivates the switchover function
