Modules Output Modules Functionality The Po w er V ector series of amplifiers accepts Bogen signal-pr ocessing output modules, which offer a cost eff ec- tive and con v enient wa y to add specific signal-pr ocessing capability into a system. When an output module is installed, the mix bus signal is automatically rer outed through the output module,[...]

Connections Speakers T ransf ormer -Coupled Speaker Connections T ransf ormer -coupled, constant voltage speak er loads are connected to their respectiv e load type (i.e ., 70V speak ers to the 70V terminal, 25V speak ers to the 25V terminals) and the COM terminal. Make sur e the selector switch is in the TRANS OUT position. A separate 8-ohm termin[...]

Connections COM and GND T erminals A shorting jumper typically connects the COM and GND terminals of the amplifier together . The COM terminal is a common lead from the output transformer . For the transf ormer -coupled speaker output to work, one of the speaker load leads must be connected to this terminal. The GND terminal is a connection to the [...]

Mute Contr ol Each priority bus (High, Medium, and Low) can be externally activated. This allows priority buses of tw o or more P ower V ector units to be link ed together for system expansion purposes. A particular mute priority can be externally for ced by shor ting that priority’ s bus terminal to the C terminal of the Mute Control (the C term[...]
