User manual XTANT 4180X

[. . . ] It is designed to assist your Authorized Xtant Select Dealer's professional installer. Installation techniques critical to the creation of a high-performance mobile audio sound system, (procedures for running wires, basic safety rules, and system layout concepts) are not presented in this owners manual. All Authorized Xtant Select Dealers have been chosen for their expertise in system design and advanced installation capabilities and Xtant highly recommends that you have all of your mobile audio products professionally installed. If, however, you choose to install your Xtant amplifier yourself, please refer to the Installer's Reference prior to installation. [. . . ] The "ix" Series models offer an additional Band Pass selection. When chosen, the Band Pass selection is available via the Low Pass jumper position for the RCA line outputs. The following Frequency Modules (SIPs)* are available from your Xtant Dealer: 50 Hz, 70 Hz, 80 Hz, 90 Hz, 120 Hz, 150 Hz, 300 Hz, 500 Hz, 700 Hz, 1 kHz, 3 kHz, 4 kHz, and 5 kHz. Please refer to the Installer's Reference (insert) for the Frequency Module receptacle location and chart of frequency/SIP value code numbers * SIP: an acronym referring to multiple resistors in a Single In-Line Package 7 OPTIONAL ACCESSORY MODULES Xtant optional accessory modules are easily and quickly installable by your Authorized Xtant Dealer. The upgrade modules snap into place on the amplifiers PC board when the top of the unit is removed. These accessories enhance your entire system, expanding and customizing performance for your unique applications. PARAMETRIC EQUALIZATION MODULE ­ PQM 1 The PQM-1 is a precision tuning instrument, designed to be adjusted with the use of a Real-Time-Analyzer. This true, fully adjustable, one band parametric equalizer provides individual frequency, Q/bandwidth, and +/- 18dB gain adjustment controls. By utilizing one of three (3) frequency modules included, any frequency from 20 Hz to 20kHz can be chosen. The "Q" ranges from 1 to 10 in value, allowing a wide variety of bandwidth adjustment to address the subtle tuning requirements common to mobile audio systems. All 2-channel Xtant amplifiers can accept one PQM-1. All 3/4-channel amplifiers will accept two PQM-1 modules if desired (one PQM-1 per 2 channels of input). 24 DB / OCTAVE CROSSOVER MODULE ­ CM 24X The CM-24X upgrades the standard on-board crossovers provided on all Xtant "ix" and "x" Series amplifiers to a 24 dB per octave "Linkwitz - Riley" filter. The CM-24x module improves loudspeaker polar response while its steeper slope provides enhanced system design flexibility. BALANCED LINE MODULE ­ BLM 1 The BLM-1 upgrades all Xtant "x" Series amplifiers to include Balanced / Floating Line Inputs, which are standard on all "i" series products. The BLM-1 does not create balanced line outputs for the standard, on-board crossover. However, in most cases, the noise elimination benefits of balanced lines will be passed through to amplifier(s) connected to these outputs. 8 MAINTENANCE Recommended Cleaning Procedures Cleaning the fan / Circuit Board ­ Every 90 Days A. The internal fan in all Xtant amplifiers need periodic cleaning. If you are in a high dust environment, every 30 days is recommended. We recommend that your dealer remove the cover and clean the fan blades with a soft brush. Loose dust can be removed with a vacuum hose. Have your dealer check the fan for obstructions if your amplifier over heats.
