2 Requirements

Before connecting to AC mains power, make sure that the mechanical installation, cooling requirements, wiring, and controls are all set to the configuration needed for your application. Failure to do so could result in damage to the unit or to other components in the system.

2.1 AC Mains

This amplifier uses a universal Switch Mode Power Supply (SMPS) with active Power Factor Correction (PFC). The power supply is compatible with AC mains voltage from 100 to 240VAC, 50-60Hz.

Use only the provided AC cord to connect to AC mains.

All EcoTour models have a fixed, nondefeatable warm-up delay of two seconds to protect against excessive in-rush current when first powered up. The model number and power consumption are indicated on the back panel label placed near the AC inlet. To reduce the risk of ground loop hum, all sound system ground references should originate at the same AC power distribution point. Do not lift or remove the amplifier power cord ground pin.

2.2 Input Signal Wire

Use shielded wiring for balanced or unbalanced audio signals. Shielding which is properly grounded will protect the signal from outside electrical interference such as RF, fluorescent lighting, and computer/display emissions. Unbalanced or single-ended (tip-sleeve) lines of less than 10 feet are generally ok, but for greater distance or noisy field environments, use balanced input signal wiring.

XLR Male

  Euroblock (3.5mm)

1. Tip (+)
2. Ring (-)
3. Sleeve (Ground)

Each channel’s Euroblock, 1/4″ phone jack, and XLR inputs are wired in parallel, with XLR pin 2 (+) and pin 3 (-). When using an unbalanced input, wire the signal to the input (+) Euroblock pin, phone jack tip, or XLR pin 2, and also be sure to wire the input (-) pin, phone jack ring, or XLR pin 3 to ground. Do not leave the (-) input unconnected. Avoid running low level signal wires in close proximity or parallel to long speaker cables, AC power cables, or power transformers, as they can induce hum or oscillation.

2.3 Speaker Wire

Note: The sound system installer is responsible for using loudspeaker wiring that is in compliance with local electrical code. The following recommendations for speaker wiring are based on UL 60065 section 5.2-d and the US National Electrical Code Article 725. These are only guidelines, consult your local code for specific up to date requirements.

• Class 2 wiring is typically used when the maximum measured open-circuit speaker output voltage is less than 120V rms.
• Class 3 wiring is typically used if the measured open circuit output voltage exceeds 120V rms, such as when amplifiers are used in bridged mode. See the specifications for specific model configurations that may require Class 3 speaker wiring.

Speaker wire gauge: EcoTour amplifiers are capable of delivering high levels of output current, so the wire gauge used for speaker outputs is important. Inadequate wire gauge, especially over long distance, adds significant resistance to the speaker’s own impedance, reducing the power which is actually delivered to the speaker. It could also result in a decreased damping factor and potential fire hazard. Since power at the speaker load is of primary concern in system design, refer to the table below to best determine appropriate wire gauge for your application.

The following table lists the resistance per 100 feet of common copper wire gauges, and also lists the percentage of the speaker load power which would be lost as heat in an arbitrary 100 ft run of different gauges of 2-conductor copper speaker wire.

Wire Gauge

| Ohms/100ft| 8Ω
load| 4Ω
load| 2Ω
load
---|---|---|---|---

8| 0.0605Ω| 0.8%| 1.5%|

3%

10

| 0.1018Ω| 1.3%| 2.5%| 5%

12| 0.1619Ω| 2.0%| 4.0%|

8%

14

| 0.2575Ω| 3.2%| 6.4%| 12.8%

16| 0.4094Ω| 5.1%| 10.2%|

20.4%

18

| 0.6510Ω| 8.1%| 16.3%|

32.6%

This table expresses the power loss as a percentage of the load’s power rather than the total amplifier output power in order to accurately determine power loss at other cable lengths. For example, if you plan to deliver 150 watts to an 8 Ohm load through 50 ft of 14 ga. cable, the power loss in the cable would be half that of a 100 ft run of #14 wire as shown in the table, or 1.6% of 150W, which is an insignificant 2.4 watts. However, if you were to run 200 ft of 18 ga. cable to a 2 Ohm load, the loss would be twice that of the 100 ft run shown in the table, or 65.2% of 250W, which is 163 watts lost as heat. Always be sure to use adequate gauge speaker wire.

2.5 Mechanical

Each amplifier model is 2RU and is designed to fit into a 19-inch equipment rack with minimum depth of 16.1″ (409mm). Use four screws when mounting the amplifier to the front rack rails. Rear support is recommended for mobile or touring use. In some installations where the sound system is exposed to a high level of RF noise or system-induced oscillation, it may be necessary to ground the amplifier’s chassis to the rack enclosure. This is accomplished using star type lockwashers on the four rack mounting screws, placed between the amplifier chassis and the rack rails. These star washers will penetrate through the amplifier and rack rail finish to adequately ground the chassis to the rack.

2.6 Cooling

Air vents on the amplifier front and side panels must have access to free flowing room temperature air. Cool air is drawn in through the front panel and blown out through the sides. It is not necessary to leave empty rack spaces above or below the amplifier. See specifications for amplifier thermal output characteristics in BTU/hr.

3 Amplifier Protection

Power-On Delay: All models have a two second turn-on delay to prevent excessive in-rush current when first powered on.

Thermal Protection: Cooling fans are continuously variable, reaching their maximum speed when an amplifier channel reaches 80% of it’s safe operating temperature. Temp LEDs turn on when signal limiting countermeasures are being applied to that channel due to over temperature conditions.

Overpower Protection: To protect internal components against overpower conditions, a protection scheme in each output stage reduces audio output power until the fault condition is no longer present.

Output DC and Rail Fault Protection: Output DC on any channel will trigger the Protect LED and mute that channel.

AC Mains: If the AC Mains line voltage exceeds or falls below the specified operating range, the amplifier will temporarily shut down. It will automatically restart as soon as the AC line voltage returns to the specified range.

For details on these and other amplifier protection schemes, plus their LED codes, refer to the troubleshooting section.

4 Front Panel Features (EcoTour 1500.4 shown)

4.1 Air Vents

Cool air enters in through the amplifier front panel and is vented out the sides.

4.2 Channel LED Indicators

• CLIP/MUTE (red):
  CLIPPING is indicated when the speaker output reaches 95% (-0.5dB) of maximum power.
  MUTE is indicated when the channel’s front panel level control is fully attenuated.
  The Clip/Mute LED is also used with the Protect LED to indicate output DC fault. See the troubleshooting section for LED fault codes.

• SIGNAL (green) is indicated when amplifier output voltage reaches 25% (-12dB) of maximum.

• CURRENT (green) indicates when output current delivered to the speaker load is 2 Amp or greater.

• TEMP (yellow) indicates that automatic counter-measures are being applied due to an excessive internal temperature .

4.3 Protect LED

The red protect LED initially turns on to indicate that real-time countermeasures are being applied to overpower, over-temperature, or rail voltage fault conditions while the amp is still running.

If the countermeasures are unsuccessful and the amplifier protects itself by shutting down, the protect LED remains on and the amplifier’s power must be cycled before resuming normal operation.

The exception to this is when the amp shuts down due to the AC mains voltage being out of range, in which case the amp automatically restarts as soon as the AC mains line voltage returns to the specified operating range.

4.4 Disable LED

This yellow LED lights when the power switch and level controls have been disabled using the back panel DIP switch (sec. 5.2b).

4.5 Channel Attenuators

These control the level of the amplifier. When an input attenuator is turned fully off, the red Clip/ Mute LED for that channel turns on to indicate mute status. Front panel attenuators and the power switch can be disabled using the back panel DIP switch (sec. 5.2b).

4.6 Bridge LED

This green LED indicates when a channel pair is set to BRIDGE mode from the back panel switch (sec. 5.6). In bridge mode, only the odd numbered input and level control for that channel pair is used.

4.7 Power Switch/LED

This switch is used for powering the amplifier on or off. Its white LED lights solid when the amplifier is on. The power switch can be disabled using the back panel DIP switch. The two possible power switch LED conditions are:

• Fully lit: The amplifier is powered up, even if the power switch has been disabled, in which case the disable LED will be on.
• Fully off: The amplifier is completely off.

4.8 Model Number

The first numbers of model name express the power rating per channel of the amplifier. For example, “1500” mean 1,500W per channel, “1000” means 1,000W per channel, and “500” means 500 W per channel. The last number is the channel count.

4.9 Mounting Holes

For mounting to a 19″ equipment rack.

5 Rear Panel Features

5.1 Front Panel Disable DIP Switch

The Front Panel Disable DIP switch deactivates all front panel controls when in the On (up) position.

5.2 DIP Switch Channel Settings

Every input channel has its own DIP switch for independently setting 80Hz Hi- Pass Filter (HPF), Clip Limiter, and Gain as described below:

5.2a High Pass Filter

An 80Hz 2nd order hipass filter is used to reduce low frequency content going to a speaker. The filter is engaged when in the On (up) position.

5.2b Limiter

The clip limiter is used to prevent the amplifier channel from sending clipped audio to the speaker. When the clip limiter is enabled (up), input signal level is automatically attenuated whenever full output power is exceeded.

5.2c Gain

The Amplifier Gain settings are used to set the overall voltage gain of the amplifier in dB. This is useful when matching an amplifier to input signal strength. Using the maximum expected input signal level, set amplifier gain to the highest setting possible without risk of the amplifier going into clipping during signal peaks. The Gain setting of 1.4V means a 1.4V input signal will drive the amp to full output.

5.3 Input Jacks

Euroblock connectors and 1/4″ TRS & XLR combo jacks are internally wired in parallel.

Euroblock
Use balanced signals whenever possible. If using a balanced signal source into the Euroblock connector, wire its input signal to the (+) pin, its (-) signal to the (-) pin, and wire its shield to (G).

If using an unbalanced signal source on the Euroblock connector, wire its input signal to the (+) pin, its shield to (G), and also wire the (-) input pin to ground.

1/4″ & XLR Combo
The combination 1/4″ TRS and XLR jack (pin 2 hot) is wired in parallel to the Euroblock input. Do not float the TRS ring or XLR pin 3. If an unbalanced signal is used, connect the TRS ring or XLR pin 3 to ground.

Note: For either connector type, if a ground loop hum persists when using an unbalanced source, wire the hot signal to the (+) input, the shield to the (-) input, and leave the input ground pin unconnected.

5.4 Bridge Mode Switch

This switch, when pressed in, places the adjacent channel pair into bridge mode, combining two amplifier outputs for more power to a single speaker load. Bridge mode uses only the odd numbered input and level control, disabling the even numbered input and level control for that channel pair. Speaker outputs in bridge mode must be wired differently, as shown on the back of the amplifier. The bridge mode switch button can be removed for added security by gently pulling it straight off.

5.5 SpeakOn Output Connectors

Neutrik speakON connectors are used for reliable and secure wiring to speaker loads. Wiring for Bridge mode uses speakON pins (1+) and (2+) as indicated on the amplifier back panel diagram.

5.6 Serial Number Sticker

This sticker identifies the product model number, serial number, and AC mains current/ power rating.

5.7 AC Mains Connector

Always use the AC cord provided by Ashly for connecting to mains power. The amplifier auto-detects nominal mains voltage from 100VAC to 240VAC. WARNING: Do not remove or lift the mains connector ground.

6 Troubleshooting
