Front Panel
1. Input Signal Presence/Clip Indicators
Green LED, one above each channel’s volume control, illuminates when input signal exceeds –40 dBu, and flashes brightly at threshold
of audible distortion.
2. Master Level Control
The Master Level control will raise or lower all the input channels together. A good starting point for setting gain structure is to set
the Master Level control at the 12:00 position, and then adjust the individual channels one at a time.
3. Output Signal Indicator
Green LED above master level control illuminates when any input signal exceeds –40 dBu.
4. Output Peak Indicator
Red LED above master output volume control will illuminate when the amp is -3dB below a clipping condition. This is caused by
excessively high input levels or when a Gain control is turned up too high. An occasional flash is OK.
5. Power Indicator
This LED illuminates Blue when the power switch is turned On.
6. Input Level Controls
The rotary control varies the amplitude of the signal fed to the amplifier input. Turn clockwise to increase and counter-clockwise to
decrease the signal level.

5. Mic Trim
This variable control allows fine tuning of the gain of Inputs 1-4. There is 20dB of variable gain available. The trim only
applies when the input is set to the “Mic” position on the DIP switch.
6. Input 1 VOX Threshold Adjustment
Input 1 signal can be used to trigger or activate a mute command. When an input is set to Mute Receive via Switch B Input Mute Rec
section, the input associated to the switch will be muted when a signal is applied to Input 1 or when the Remote mute terminals are
shorted together (See Remote Mute). The VOX Mute Sensitivity Control adjusts how sensitive the mute circuitry from Input 1 reacts.
Rotating the VOX Sensitivity clockwise (CW) will lower the sensitivity, where a higher amplitude signal from Input 1 will be required to
trigger the mute send circuits. Fully Counter Clockwise (FCCW) will raise the sensitivity of the mute circuits, where a lower amplitude
signal from Input 1 is required to trigger a mute send. VOX Sensitivity trim range is from Off (FCW), On / Low 1.25mV to High 9FCCW)
40uV. Calibration of this control in conjunction with the microphone to be used is very important to assure the proper amount of signal
from the mic is enough to trigger the mute circuits. If it is not calibrated properly, the mute may not be triggered when a weak voice vs
a strong voice uses the mic.
7. Input 4 (Dual Function)
Input 4 can accept more than one type of audio signal. This input section has a 3 position Phoenix connector for Mic or Line input
signals and a 3.5mm stereo jack that is summed. The level to the amplifier mix is controlled by Input 4 level located on the front panel.
Note: Only one type of input signal can be applied at one time.
A. Balanced Mic / Line - Balanced Microphone or Line level signals connect to the (+), (–), and (G) terminals. To select between Mic or
Line input levels, refer to the DIP switch chart on the rear of the amplifier for feature assignment. If connecting an unbalanced line level
input, tie (short) the (G) and (–) terminals together for negative or ground connection and the positive or (+) signal to the (+) terminal
on the amplifier input. If the input is used in Mic mode, Phantom power for condenser type microphones is available in the DIP switch
settings on the rear panel.
B. Input 4 Stereo Summed - Input 4 consists of stereo 3.5mm summing inputs, suitable for connection to the output of iPod®, CD/DVD
players, etc.
8. Switch B Functions
• DP SW #1 - Input 6, this the input sensitivity selection between 100mV and 300mV. When selected to 100mV it will take less signal
from the audio source to achieve max output.
• DP SW #2 - VCA switch assigns what is Inputs are going to remotely controlled when a 10k ohm potentiometer is connect across
the two VCA (Voltage Control Amplifier) ports. There are two selections a for remote level control, Input 6 (music) or the overall amp
Master Level.
• DP SW #3 - Low Cut switch when assigned to On (UP) activates a Low Cut Filter reducing signal from 300Hz 6dB per octave and
below. Note: The Bass control on the front panel is active. This is ideal to use with paging horns.
• DP SW #4 - Input 6 Mute Receive, When the DPA SW is placed in the On (UP) position the input can be muted via the Remote
Mute port or via a VOX trigger.
• DP SW #5 - Input 5 Mute Receive, When the DPA SW is placed in the On (UP) position the input can be muted via the Remote
Mute port or via a VOX trigger.
• DP SW #6 - Input 4 Mute Receive, When the DPA SW is placed in the On (UP) position the input can be muted via the Remote
Mute port or via a VOX trigger.
• DP SW #7 - Input 3 Mute Receive, When the DPA SW is placed in the On (UP) position the input can be muted via the Remote
Mute port or via a VOX trigger.
• DP SW #8 - Input 2 Mute Receive, When the DPA SW is placed in the On (UP) position the input can be muted via the Remote
Mute port or via a VOX trigger.

9. Inputs 5 & 6
Inputs 5 & 6 consist of a pair of stereo summing, line level inputs. Connect unbalanced audio outputs here such as CD
players or audio from DVD players. Input 5 has a fix Input Sensitivity of 300mV. Input 6 has a selectable sensitivity via a
Dip Switch #1 on Switch B.
10. Remote Mute
Shorting the Remote Mute terminals will mute the inputs that are assigned in Switch B to receive the mute command. When an input
is set to Mute Receive via the corresponding DIP switch, the input associated to the switch will be muted when Mute terminals are
shorted together. This connection is usually done via remote switch on a microphone. Note: Input 1 cannot be muted.
11. Remote Level Control
Remote location of the level control can be accomplished via the VCA control port and a 10K potentiometer. You can control the overall
level (Master) or just Input 6 (Music). It is very common to only adjust the music level in a system. Paging levels rarely need to change.
This selection is made on Switch “B”, via DP SW #2 VCA. Connect the two leads from the optional remote volume control to these
terminals. We recommend using a AtlasIED AAVC-10K or a WPD-VC10K part. If not any 10KΩpot will work.
Remote Level set up - set the system’s maximum levels using the amplifier level controls and then use the remote VCA potentiometer
as an attenuator from the maximum levels set. See the VCA setup illustration for instructions on wiring the potentiometer. Note: The
remote level control is POST (after) the Master and Input 6 Level Controls. VCA wiring will depend on the wiring of the potentiometer.
You may need to reverse the wires on the VCA port to achieve the level control rotation direction.
12. Zone 2 Output
Zone 2 Outputs are used to feed a secondary zone such as lobby, restrooms, bar or outside area’s. There are two types of outputs
needed to meet the design requirements. A 600Ωline out is provided to feed a telephone Music ON Hold application or to feed a
second amplifier that can power multiple speakers. The second option is an amplified output to power a signal speaker. Each input has
a selection switch to assign it to the Zone 2 Output. When selected the input will feed both the 1W amplified output and the 600Ωline
output. Note: When an input is routed to the Zone 2 Output via Switch C, it is PRE (before) the input channel level, Master level and the
remote level. It is important to set your source gains to achieve the desired Zone 2 level and the main system level of Zone 1.
• Zone 2 Output – 600Ω
The 600Ω1.5V max (Zone 2 Out) output is typically connected to a PBX MUSIC ON HOLD port, also known as MOH. Can also be
connected to a second amplifier input.
• Zone 2 Output – 1 Watt 8Ω
The 8Ω1W Zone 2 output can drive an external 8Ωspeaker.
• Zone 2 Level Control
Potentiometer adjusts level for both Zone 2 outputs.

13. Pre-Out
The Pre-Out is a 3-Pin Balanced Euroblock connector. Line level output is Pre-Master Level. The input level potentiometers control the
amount of output signal at the Pre-Out ports. Use this output to connect signal to a secondary amplifier. Note: When the Remote
Level when set to Input 6, the Pre-Out level will also be adjusted for Input 6. The Pre Out will not be affected when the Remote Level
Control is set to Master.
14. Amp In
The Amp Input port can be used to insert an external signal processor such as EQ, limiter. When using the Amp In feature, the Amp
Direct In switch needs to be in the “On” position.
15. Bridge In/Out
Certain installations have the need to combine one or more powered mixers buss’s together. These mixers may be in different rooms
of an install but have the need to share a page or music content throughout the installation. These terminals provide a way to send
and receive balanced line level signals from the internal mix bus of a AA120G or AA240G. The “BRIDGE IN/OUT” feature is PRE Tone
Controls and Low Cut Filter the Bridge In/Out feature allows you to send and receive a balanced signal. This is important for allowing
longer distances between the mixers. Note: This function should ONLY be used with other Atlas Sound mixers that have this feature.
The Send and Receive signals are combined through the same terminals.
16. Bridge Select Port
The “Bridge Select (Sel)” terminals are the access point to activate the “Bridge In/Out” feature. To activate the feature connect the two
points together via an external contact closure. These two points must be connected to send or receive any signal. By connecting the
Bridge In/Out terminals of two AA240s, a simple room combining system can be accomplished. If using a remote switch and closing
it, the “Bridge Select (Sel)” will combine the amps as one, opening the switch will separate the two amps. Note: If combining 3 or 4
mixers together the output level will have to be adjusted before and after Bridge Sel terminals are connected (shorted) together. We
suggest utilizing the Remote Level control when using this feature.
Installation
CAUTION: Ensure the mixer amplifier is disconnected from the power source, with power switch in the “Off” position and all level
controls turned completely counterclockwise before beginning installation.
Use a standard 19" (483mm) equipment rack with an optional rack-mount kit. See below for dimensions.
You may also stack mixer amplifiers without using a cabinet or you may place a single mixer amplifier on a surface with 12" of air space
around the unit for convection cooling.
NOTE: When transporting in a rack, mixer amplifiers should be supported at the front and back.
When using an equipment rack, do not mount units directly on top of each other. Allow 2 rack units (3.5") between units for convection
cooling. The side walls of the rack should be a minimum of 2" (51mm) away from the mixer amplifier sides and the back of the rack
should be a minimum of 4" (102mm) from the mixer amplifier back panel.

Rack Mounting (Optional)
The AA120G & AA240G features an optional 19" rack mount kit. This kit is the AAGRMK1. Note: The AAGRMK1 kit only works with AAG
Series mixer amplifiers, and will not work with AA Series or AAPHD Series mixer amplifiers. The AARMK2-0 kit will not work with AAG
Series mixer amplifiers.
Choose Input Wire and Connectors
AtlasIED recommends using balanced line (two-conductor plus shield), 22-24 gauge cables and connectors. Unbalanced line may also
be used but may result in noise over long cable runs.
The AA120G and AA240G have two types of input connectors, Euroblock and RCA.
• Mic / Line Connector - Euroblock 3.5mm pitch spacing
• RCA Input Connector - For stereo music signals, unbalanced, summed together, two connectors per input. Input 4 uses 3.5mm
stereo.

Choose Output Wire and Connectors
Amplifier Output Connections: Slip the cable lugs under the output screw terminals and tighten. Slide the supplied non-touch cover
over the output connections from top to bottom to cover them. AtlasIED recommends using high-quality, two-conductor, heavy gauge
speaker wire and connectors. Crimp-on spade lugs may be used for the output connectors. To prevent the possibility of short-circuits,
wrap or otherwise insulate exposed loudspeaker cable connectors. Cover the output connections with the supplied clear non-touch
cover by sliding the cover on.
Note: Custom wiring should only be performed by qualified personnel. Class 2 wiring is required.
Caution: Never use shielded cable for speaker wiring.
Outputs
Maintain proper polarity (+/–) on amplifier output connectors. Connect the Amplifier Output screw terminals to the loudspeaker loads.
Use terminals marked COM and 70V or 100V for constant voltage loudspeaker loads. Use terminals marked COM and 4Ωfor either a
4Ωor 8Ωspeaker load. Note: The amplifier power output is 50% of the 4Ωpower output. Connect the COM terminal to loudspeaker
negative (–) lead; connect one of the other terminals to loudspeaker positive (+) lead. Cover the output connections with the supplied
clear non-touch cover by sliding the cover on.

Measuring a Speaker System’s Impedance
Note: It is important to only use an Audio Impedance Meter and not a conventional volt/Ωmeter. A true audio frequency impedance
meter is essential for reliable installation of background music and paging systems in residences, offices buildings, and public areas.
Avoid costly service calls and amplifier damage by verifying actual speaker system impedance prior to operation. Unlike conventional
volt/Ωmeters, which measure DC resistance, an Audio Impedance Meter unit utilizes an internal frequency oscillator to measure
true impedance. It may also be utilized with 25V/70.7V and 100V speaker line transformers, L-pads and matching impedance volume
controls. There are several Audio Impedance meters on the market, if you need to buy one we suggest going to MCM Electronics or
search the internet for Audio Impedance Meter.
Measuring 25V/70.7V Distributed Speaker Systems
Large distributed systems typically utilize 25.2V or 70.7V transformers (50V and 100V in Europe), to greatly ease the connection of
multiple speakers and facilitate long cable runs. These speakers are connected in parallel, as shown below, with total wattage ratings
added to calculate the overall rating of the system. Connecting this meter to a speaker arrangement such as this will provide the overall
impedance of the system. Using the following formula, you can calculate the wattage. Simply put, when connected to a distributed
system, take the voltage of the system (normally 70.7V or 25.2V), squared, divided by the impedance displayed on the meter. Your
answer will be the total system wattage. This total wattage must not exceed the wattage output rating of the amplifier or damage
may occur. In this example the measurement for a 70.7V design with speakers of 10W, 30W and 60W, the system impedance would
measure close to 50Ω. Formula 70.7V x 70.7V = 4998, 4998 / 100W = 49.9Ω. If this speaker system load is connected to at least a
120W amp @ 70.7V, the system will operate properly. Note: It is always recommended to use a larger amp than needed with output
power headroom of at least 25%.
