INTRODUCTION

Permanent installations require solutions that offer a visually discrete design that blends into the background while still being flexible and versatile in their functions. You need to be able to connect different audio sources and manage them, to mute non-priority signals during announcements or emergency calls. With IMA°) 60, LD Systems presents another model of the new IMA°) mixing amplifier-series, which leaves nothing to be desired in terms of design and flexibility.

Its compact design, with 9.5″ housing, versatile connection options including Bluetooth for the wireless connection of music sources, and multi­stage priority switching guarantees seamless integration in commercial and industrial uses. The IMA 60 offers four priority levels for emergency calls and microphone/line inputs for various signal and music sources. Optionally, an automatic standby mode can also be activated in order to further reduce energy consumption.

The mixing amplifier is equipped with two priority contacts: one for the emergency input, which mutes all other device signal sources, and one for the microphone inputs, which mutes the music signal sources. The outputs provide a power of 65 W at 4 Ohm, a 2-band EQ for bass and treble, and a 70 v/100 V tap. A low/high selector completely separates the output signal from the output transformer, in order to ensure the best frequency response for low impedance applications The IMA 60 can also be used with external amplifiers, subwoofers or music-on-hold systems via the integrated ALE( output The music mix selector can be used to determine whether the entire mix or only the selected music source is sent to the ALE( output The intuitive design of the control panel with capacitive buttons for the selection of the music signal source, the clarity of the rear panel and the compact 9.5″ format ensures that the mixing amplifier can be easily installed.

CONNECTIONS, CONTROLS, AND DISPLAY ELEMENTS

1. POWER CONNECTOR
   IEC socket to supply mains power to the device (power cable included in the packaging).

2. FUSE
   Fuse holder for 250 V miniature fuses (5 × 20 mm). CAUTION: Only replace the fuse with a fuse of the same type (see note on the housing). If the fuse
   blows repeatedly, please contact an authorized service center..

3. ON/OFF
   Rocker switches to turn the device on and off.

4. EMERGENCY
   5-pole terminal block for the installation of an acoustic emergency call system. The poles +, -, and G correspond to a balanced line input. Poles C and

• are used for the connection of a separate mute switch (terminal block included in the packaging).
  The red CLIP LED indicates, if the input is being operated at the distortion limit, that you should reduce the signal level using the GAIN control or on the playback device so that the CLIP LED is no longer lit. The VOX control (Voice Operated Exchange) makes it possible to set a threshold for the emergency audio signal in order to activate an automatic mute switching circuit. When the level at the EMERGENCY input reaches the threshold set, all other microphone and line channels are muted. This also happens if the contact closure of the channel is closed using an external mute switch (poles C and +), regardless of the setting of the VOX control. This makes sure that the emergency signal can be heard clearly. In addition, in both cases, the EMERG indicator is lit on the front of the amplifier. As soon as the level of the emergency signal falls below the set threshold and/or the contact closure for the channel is open again, the other channels are no longer muted and the EMERG indicator goes out. With this setting, the EMERGENCY channel always has the highest priority. The emergency signal is routed to the amplifier and the speaker output internally.
  The level of the emergency signal is not influenced by the current setting of the main volume control (master volume), but is set via the GAIN control. If the VOX control is set to a minimum (turned all the way to the left), automatic muting via the VOX switching circuit is deactivated and the EMERGENCY channel can be used as an additional line channel.

  5. MIC/LINE 1
     For a microphone or line channel, the connection can be done via the XLR/jack combo socket as well as the terminal block. In this case, the poles +, -, and G are provided on the terminal block for the balanced input signal. Poles C and + are used for the connection of a separate mute switch (terminal block included in the packaging). If there is a line signal on the XLR/jack combo socket or the terminal block, switch the MIC/LINE channel 1 to LINE mode using the corresponding MIC/LINE button (button pressed). If a microphone is connected, activate MIC mode using the MIC/LINE button (button not pressed). When using a condenser microphone, you also need to activate the 24 V phantom power supply (PHANTOM ON/OFF button pressed: ON). Always make sure that the microphone is connected and the channel volume is set to a minimum before turning on phantom power.
     Before you disconnect the microphone from the amplifier, turn the channel volume to a minimum and deactivate the phantom power supply.
     The red CLIP LED indicates, if the input is being operated at the distortion limit, that you should reduce the signal level using the GAIN control or on the playback device so that the CLIP LED is no longer lit. The contact closure (poles C and +) offers the possibility to mute the MUSIC channel using an external switch/button. In addition, the internal chime tone function can be activated in this way when the chime circuit is enabled. The volume for the chime tone is controlled via the CHIME control on the back of the amplifier (channel MIC/LINE 2). If the control is turned all the way to the left, the chime circuit is disabled. If the internal chime tone function is active, MIC/LINE 1, MIC/LINE 2, and MUSIC channels are muted for the duration of the signal tone. The VOX control makes it possible to set an audio threshold value for an automatic mute circuit for MIC/LINE input 1, which mutes MIC/ LINE 1 and MUSIC channels as soon as its input signal reaches the predefined level. The PRIO LED is lit on the front of the contact closure or the VOX circuit is activated. As soon as the input level of the audio signal falls below the set threshold and/or the contact closure for the channel is open again, the other channels are no longer muted and the PRIO indicator goes out. In such a configuration, MIC/LINE 1 has priority over MIC/LINE 2 and MUSIC.
     Adjust the volume of the channel using control 1 on the front of the amplifier.

  6. MIC/LINE 2
     Microphone/line channel. The connection can be done via the line RCA socket (mono summed) as well as the terminal block. In this case, the poles +, -, and G are provided on the terminal block for the balanced input signal (terminal block included in the packaging). If there is a line signal on the RCA sockets or the terminal block, switch the MIC/LINE channel 2 to LINE mode using the corresponding MIC/LINE button (button pressed). If a microphone is connected to the terminal block, activate MIC mode using the MIC/LINE button (button not pressed). When using a condenser microphone, you also need to activate the 24 V phantom power supply  PHANTOM ON/OFF button pressed: ON). Always make sure that the microphone is connected and the channel volume is set to a minimum before turning on phantom power. Before you disconnect the microphone from the amplifier, turn the channel volume to a minimum and deactivate the phantom power supply. The red CLIP LED indicates, if the input is being operated at the distortion limit, that you should reduce the signal level using the GAIN control or on the playback device so that the CLIP LED is no longer lit.
     Tip: You can also use the contact closure (poles C and +) from MIC/LINE 1 to give MIC/LINE 2 channel priority over the MUSIC channel. In addition, external switches/buttons for MIC/LINE 1 and MIC/LINE 2 can be connected in parallel to the contact closure.

  7. MUSIC
     Line channel for the connection of playback devices such as a CD or MP3 player. The MUSIC channel includes a Bluetooth module. RCA sockets are provided on the back for connecting two stereo line input signal sources (CD symbol or cable symbol). The desired signal source is selected using a touch- sensitive button on the front of the amplifier. All stereo signals are mono summed internally.

  8. AUX OUT
     The AUX OUT line output with terminal block connection is used to send an audio signal, for example, to an external amplifier, an active subwoofer, or a telephone music-on-hold system (terminal block included). With the MUSIC MIX switch, only the signal of the music channel (MUSIC position) or the sum of all channels (MIX position) can be sent to the output. The AUX OUT line signal is not influenced by the master volume control. It has a fixed output level.
     Please note: In the factory settings, the EMERGENCY signal is routed via an internal jumper to the AUX OUT line output. If this setting needs to be changed, the device must be opened and the corresponding jumper removed. Please read the information under “JUMPER FOR EMERGENCY SIGNAL ON AUX OUT” in these instructions carefully.

  9. SPEAKER OUTPUT
     The speaker output with terminal block connection (terminal block included) enables the use of low impedance speakers with an impedance of at least 4 Ohm (LO-Z/HI-Z switch in LO-Z position) or 70/100-V speakers (LO-Z/HI-Z switch in HI-Z position). Please refer to the correct assignment of the terminal block poles (see figure below). The sound of the speech signal is adjusted using the BASS and TREBLE controls. The total output power of the connected speakers should roughly correspond to the amplifier power.

  10. STANDBY ON/OFF
      If the standby function is activated (STANDBY in ON position), the speaker is automatically set to standby mode if there is no audio signal for 20 minutes. This reduces power consumption considerably. As soon as there is an audio signal, the amplifier automatically starts from the standby mode and is ready for full use within around 3 seconds (the standby LED flashes white on the front of the device when starting). If the STANDBY LED is white, the device is ready for use. The LED is lit red in standby mode. In addition, the IMA 60 can also be switched to standby mode manually by pressing the standby button on the front. In this case, auto standby mode is deactivated and the device no longer starts automatically.
      Please note: When the auto standby switch is active, the Bluetooth connection status is also analyzed. When a Bluetooth connection with an auxiliary device (e.g. smartphone or tablet) is detected and Bluetooth is selected as the signal source, the device is not automatically put in standby mode.

  11. CHANNEL 1
      Volume control for channel 1 with white SIG (signal) and red CLIP LED. As soon as there is an audio signal on channel 1 and volume control 1 is set to the desired volume, the white signal LED lights up. If the red CLIP LED lights up, the signal may be distorted. In this case, reduce the channel volume control (control 1) on the amplifier. Should the audio signal be distorted, please check the corresponding input level on the back of the amplifier CLIP LED/GAIN).

  12. CHANNEL 2
      Volume control for channel 2 with white SIG (signal) and red CLIP LED. As soon as there is an audio signal on channel 2 and volume control 2 is set to the desired volume, the white signal LED lights up. If the red CLIP LED lights up, the signal may be distorted. In this case, reduce the channel volume control (control 2) on the amplifier. Should the audio signal be distorted, please check the corresponding input level on the back of the amplifier (CLIP LED/GAIN).

  13. Touch-sensitive button for selecting the audio source of the MUSIC channel (Bluetooth module, input with CD symbol, input with cable symbol). To switch the signal source, press the button for at least half a second. Activation of the individual signal sources takes place clockwise.

  14. Touch-sensitive button for activating the Bluetooth connection (pairing). The connection of a Bluetooth auxiliary device (e.g. Smartphone, tablet, etc) to the Bluetooth module of the amplifier is via the selection of the Bluetooth signal source (see element 13). If no auxiliary device is connected to the Bluetooth module, this is indicated by the Bluetooth symbol flashing slowly. In this mode, the IMA60 is not visible to external auxiliary devices. Only previously connected auxiliary devices can be connected directly to the IMA60 without activating pairing mode. In order to prevent an unwanted or unexpected connection, this connection is not created automatically but must be manually created in the Bluetooth menu of the auxiliary device.
      To connect to a new auxiliary device, press the Bluetooth pairing button for around 2 seconds until the Bluetooth symbol flashes rapidly. The Bluetooth ID is now visible to other Bluetooth devices. Activate the Bluetooth function on the auxiliary device and search for nearby Bluetooth devices in the Bluetooth menu. When the LD IMA 60 appears under “available devices”, you just need to select it and the connection will be made automatically. If this process is successful, the Bluetooth symbol is permanently lit on the front of the amplifier and the Bluetooth ID is no longer visible to other devices. This prevents unauthorized connections to the Bluetooth module. Playback from the auxiliary device can now be started. If you want to disconnect the connection with a Bluetooth device so that the Bluetooth module can be connected to another device, press the Bluetooth button again for around 2 seconds. You can then connect the desired auxiliary device via its setup menu in which you select the LD IMA 60
      in the Bluetooth menu (connected devices) of the auxiliary device.

  15. MUSIC
      Volume control for MUSIC channel with white SIG (signal) and red CLIP LED. As soon as there is an audio signal on the MUSIC channel and the corresponding volume control is set to the desired volume, the white signal LED lights up. If the red CLIP LED lights up, the signal may be distorted. In this case, reduce the output level of the auxiliary device or the channel volume control (MUSIC control) on the amplifier.

  16. MASTER VOLUME CONTROL
      The main volume control is used to control the sum signal of all channels except the EMERGENCY channel. The EMERGENCY channel bypasses the main volume control, and the signal is sent directly to the power amplifier and the speaker output. The main volume control is equipped with a ring-shaped, three- color LED display. This LED ring remains dark when there is no signal or only a very weak signal at the output, and starts to light up as soon as a sufficient signal level is detected. If the internal limiter is on, the ring lights up yellow. A red light indicates that the protection circuit of the amplifier has been activated due to a technical problem (e.g. short circuit in the speaker cable). In this case, the output is muted. Turn the device off. If the technical problem cannot be solved, please contact an authorized service center.

  17. PRIO
      The indicator for activated priority mode of the MIC/LINE channel (priority levels 2, 3, and 4). The priority function of the MIC/LINE channel is activated
      in the following three situations and the PRIO indicator is lit yellow on the front.
      1. The VOX switching circuit is active (input signal level MIC/LINE 1 exceeds the VOX threshold value indicated).
      2. The contact between poles C and + of the terminal block connections for the MIC/LINE 1 channel is closed using a mute switch/button.
      3. The chime tone is played.
      Further information on the channel priorities and the EMERG and PRIO indicators on the front of the amplifier can be found in the PRIORITY LEVELS table in these instructions.

  18. EMERG
      Indicator for the priority function of the EMERGENCY channel. The EMERG indicator is lit yellow if priority level 1 is activated for the VOX emergency circuit or a connected mute switch/button (contact closure). All other input channels are muted during this time. As soon as the contact closure is opened again or the emergency signal level falls below the VOX threshold value, the muting of all channels is canceled and the EMERG indicator goes out.

  19. STANDBY BUTTON
      Briefly press the standby button to put the amplifier into standby mode and mute the speaker outputs. If the standby button is briefly pressed again, the amplifier is ready for operation again. If standby mode is activated by pressing the standby button, reactivation of the amplifier via the automatic standby function is not available, even if an audio signal is detected.

  20. STANDBY LED
      Dual-color LED to indicate the current operating mode. The standby LED is lit white if the amplifier is ready for operation. The LED is lit red in standby mode.

CONNECTION EXAMPLES

The connection for a mute switch/button in MIC/LINE channel 1 can be used for two devices at the same time (muting of a music signal or activation of the gong/signal tone). In this case, the mute contacts of both devices must be connected to poles C and + of the terminal strip connections for MIC/LINE 1.
When wiring terminal blocks, please ensure that the poles/terminals are correctly assigned (see figure under the connection examples for terminal blocks). The manufacturer takes no responsibility for damage caused by faulty wiring! Further information on the correct wiring of terminal block connections (“terminal blocks”) can be found in the section TERMINAL BLOCK CONNECTIONS in these instructions.
