Pinout and polarity of connection cables should be configured correctly (refer to the rear panel of the unit). The input overload point is high enough to accept the maximum output level of virtually any signal source. Connecting Outputs All models have two output (speaker) connections per channel. Cables can be connected with banana plugs, spade lugs, or bare wire to the 5-way binding posts. The preferred connection method is via the Speakon connectors. Pin connections are noted on the rear panel of the unit. Connecting Power The CS 1200 power requirements are rated at 1/8 power (typical music conditions). The maximum power current draw rating is limited only by the front panel circuit breaker. Consult the specifications in this manual for figures on the current that this amplifier will demand. Make sure the mains voltage is correct and is the same as that printed on the rear of the amplifier. Damage caused by connecting the amplifier to improper AC voltage is not covered by any warranty. Unless otherwise specified when ordered, Peavey amplifiers shipped to customers are configured as follows: North America: 120 VAC/60 Hz Europe, Asia, Australia: 230/240 VAC/50 Hz South America: 120 VAC/60 Hz or 240 VAC/50 Hz Operation Modes Stereo For stereo (dual channel) operation, turn the amplifier off and set the mode select switch to the stereo position. These filters are adjustable from 20 Hz to 100 Hz and are designed to reduce frequencies below those capable of being produced by the loudspeakers, or to reduce room "rumble. " Frequencies below the knob setting of the corresponding channel will be attenuated. High Pass/Full Range Output Connector (17) The HIGH PASS/FULL RANGE OUTPUT connector function is dependent on the setting of the corresponding Amp Function switch. This connector allows patching the frequencies above the crossover knob setting to a secondary amplifier. If the Amp Function switch is in the HIGH PASS position, the high frequency portion of the crossover will be present at the connector. If the Amp Function switch is in the FULL RANGE or LOW PASS position, the crossover will be bypassed and allow patching the full range signal to a secondary amplifier. Low Pass Output Connector (18) The LOW PASS OUTPUT connector allows patching the frequencies below the crossover knob setting to a secondary amplifier. This output remains at low frequencies independent of the Amp Function switch setting. Speakon® Output Connector (19) Each channel features a four-wire Speakon connector for the output. In both channels, the 1+ pin is the channel signal output and the 1- pin is chassis ground. On the Channel A connector, the 2+ pin carries the Channel B signal output and the 2- pin is chassis ground. Binding Post Output Connectors (20) Each channel features a pair of shock-proof binding posts connected in parallel with the Speakon connector. The red binding posts are the signal output from each channel, and the black binding posts are chassis ground. For Bridge mode operation, only the red binding posts are used. The Channel A red binding post should be considered the positive output for the system and should be connected to the positive input of the associated loudspeaker system. AC Line Cord Connector (21) Provided to accept the removable (IEC) type AC line cord. Connect only to proper source (see back panel markings). 9 Protection Features The CS 1200 incorporates several circuits to protect both itself and loudspeakers under virtually any situation.
