1 Introduction
1.1 Power Amplifier
The DPA 8000 Series power amplifiers are Class-D amplifi-
ers which have been designed for AC mains as well as for
DC operation. The output voltage is galvanically isolated
and constantly monitored for ground fault. A power saving
mode and temperature controlled fans allow for energy ef-
ficient and nearly noiseless operation. Control and moni-
toring are carried out via the REMOTE CAN BUS. The
amplifiers have been designed for use in an evacuation sys-
tem. Control usually is taken care of by the DPM 8016 Pag-
ing Manager and the configuration by means of IRIS-Net. If
amplifiers are operated without employing a DPM 8016,
the configuration can be created in IRIS-Net and perma-
nently be stored in the amplifier, so that the desired state
(preset) is activated, each time the device is powerd on.
1.2 System Overview
The PROMATRIX 8000 System includes the following pow-
er amplifiers:
All power amplifiers have the following common features:
The power amplifiers are processor-controlled and
equipped with extensive monitoring functions. A built-in
watchdog circuit monitors the processor system. Line
monitoring for both the REMOTE CAN BUS and audio
transmission enables the detection and reporting of line
interruption and short-circuit.
IRIS-Net allows the easy and comfortable configuration of
power amplifiers of the PROMATRIX 8000 system. The use
of the software application's graphical and dialogue-ori-
ented user interface facilitates the determination of sys-
tem characteristics.

Number Element Description
1 SIGNAL LED and
LIMIT LED indicators
Each channel of the power amplifier has dedicated SIGNAL and LIMIT LED indicators:
• The SIGNAL LED indicator of a channel lights green at approximately -30 dB below clipping.
• The LIMIT LED indicator lights red when the dynamic audiolimiter in the output channel has been activated. This may
occur when either the input signal or the output load are too high. In this case, it is recommended to reduce the input
signal. In case of a short-circuit in the loudspeaker cables,the output voltage will be reduced until the output current
falls below the limit value. This may continue, until a temperature-controlled shutdown of the power amplifier takes
place.
2 PROTECT LED indicator The PROTECT LED indicator lights red, if one of the following internal protections of the power amplifier has been
activated:
• Thermal overload
• Mains undervoltage
• Battery undervoltage
• Short-circuit at the amplifier output
If PROTECT is active, the affected amplifier channel or all amplifier channels will be switched off.
3 REMOTE LED indicator The REMOTE LED indicator lights green when the data communication with the DPM 8016 is successful.
4 STANDBY LED indicator The STANDBY LED indicator lights yellow when the power amplifier is in standby mode. For more information, please
refer to the paragraph “Standby Operation” on page 14.
5 GROUND LED indicator The GROUND LED indicator lights red when a ground fault occurred at least at one output. The LED indicator continues to
light, even when the ground fault has been resolved. Pressing the FAULT button (7) or using IRIS-Net deactivates the LED
indicator. For further information, please refer to the paragraph “Fault Monitoring” on page 15.
6 FAULT LED indicator The FAULT LED indicator lights yellow when an error-state has been detected in the power amplifier. The configuration of
the fault types to be indicated by the LED indicator is performed in IRIS-Net. For further information, please refer to the
paragraph “Fault Monitoring” on page 15.
7 FAULT button The FAULT button has the following functions:
• Ground fault reset: Press the FAULT button briefly to confirm a ground fault. The GROUND LED indicator goes out as
soon as the ground fault at the output has been remedied.
• Error simulation: An error-state in the DPA is simulated for the time the FAULT pushbutton is pressed down. This also
provides the possibility to manually switch to emergency mode.
• Reset to factory default: The CAN address has to be set to "00" in order to reset all settings to factory default. Once
the CAN address has been set to "00", press the FAULT button for at least 3 seconds to reset all settings of the power
amplifier.
The FAULT button is protected against inadvertent operation. Use a pointed tool (e.g. a ball pen) to press the button.
8 POWER LED indicator The POWER LED indicator lights green when the voltage supply is in order.

2.3 Audio Inputs
DIRECT INPUT
Each channel of the power amplifier has
a direct line level input IN with an addi-
tional connector connected in parallel,
which can be used for thru-connection of
the audio signal. The integrated pilot tone
monitoring reliably detects missing or
faulty input signals. The audio inputs are electronically bal-
anced. Whenever possible, input only balanced audio sig-
nals to the power amplifier.
AEC INPUT
The audio signal at the AEC input (Audio Emergency Chan-
nel) can internally be switched to each amplifier channel.
The volume level of the AEC signal can be adjusted sepa-
rately. The paralleled connector can be used to thru-con-
nect the audio signal. The integrated pilot tone monitoring
allows the reliable detection of missing or faulty input sig-
nals. The audio input is electronically balanced. Whenever
possible, input only balanced audio signals to the power
amplifier.
NOTE: Setting individual volume levels for the
direct input IN and the AEC input takes
place during the configuration in IRIS-Net.
BALANCED WIRING
Following illustration shows the balanced wiring of a DPA
audio input.
UNBALANCED WIRING
If audio cables are very short and no interfering signals are
to be expected in the surrounding area of the power ampli-
fier, using unbalanced audio signals is possible as well.
However, in this case, bridging the shielding and the in-
verted input of the input connector is mandatory (see illus-
tration 2-2). Otherwise, this may result in a level reduction
of -6 dB. For reasons of immunity to external interference
sources, like e.g. lighting dimmers, mains supplies, HF con-
trol cables, etc., the use of balanced wiring is always pref-
erable.

DPA 8000 - 8
2.4 Audio Outputs
The audio outputs of the DPA power am-
plifier are galvanically separated and are
constantly monitored for ground fault.
The loudspeaker cables are connected
to the DPA power amplifier using screw-
lock connectors (supplied with the am-
plifier). The 6-pin plug that is used for
the connection can be removed for easy installation. The
maximum cable diameter is 1.5 mm² when using the
screw-lock connection method. It is possible to connect a
maximum of as many loudspeaker systems as it takes, until
the total power consumption of the entire loudspeaker
network equals the rated output value of the power ampli-
fier and as long as the nominal load impedance of the pow-
er amplifier outputs is not exceeded. For more information
about the actual values of rated output and nominal load
impedance, please refer to the chapter "Specifications"
(page 30). Please also refer to the paragraph“Integrated
Relays” on page 9.
CAUTION: It is possible that during operation shock-
hazard voltages (>34 V peak value) may be
present at the outputs. Therefore, the con-
nected loudspeaker zones have to be
installed in accordance with applicable
safety regulations. When installing and
operating 100 V loudspeaker networks,
compliance with the VDE regulation DIN
VDE 0800 is mandatory. Especially, when
100 V loudspeaker networks in alarm sys-
tem applications are concerned, all safety
precautions have to be in accordance with
the safety class 3 standard.
CONFIGURATION OFTHE OUTPUT VOLTAGE
The default stetting of the output voltage of the audio out-
puts is 100 volts. The connection of the output transformer
needs to be rewired when the setting is changed to 70
volts or 50 volts. For this purpose carry out the following
steps:
1. Turn the power amplifier off.
2. Disconnect the power amplifier from the mains and
the DC voltage supply.
3. Wait approximately 2 minutes until the internal
capacitors have been discharged.
4. Remove the 12 screws in the power amplifier's cover
plate (see illustration 2-4).
5. Remove the cover plate of the power amplifier. The
following illustration shows the 7-pin clamp termi-
nals inside of the appliance that are used for config-
uring the output voltage.
NOTE: Each clamp terminal represents an output
channel. The illustration 2.5 shows the
DPA 8412 power amplifier with the four
clamp terminals AMP 1 to AMP 4. Looking at
the power amplifier from the front, the
clamp terminals are numbered in ascending
order from left to right (see also the imprint
on the printed board). Power amplifiers
with two or only one output channel corre-
spondingly provide fewer clamp terminals.

6. Rewire the clamp terminal of the output whose out-
put voltage you would like to change accordingly. The
following illustrations show the correct wiring for the
possible output voltages 100 volts, 70 volts or 50
volts.
7. Re-install the power amplifier's cover plate and
tighten the 12 screws.
8. Connect the power source and switch the power
amplifier on.
9. Re-configure the corresponding power amplifier out-
put(s) using the IRIS-Net software application.
CAUTION: The configuration of the output voltage
inside the power amplifier (clamp terminal
wiring) and the software settings (IRIS-Net)
have to be identical at all times.
2.5 Integrated Relays
DPA power amplifiers have integrated relays that can be
configured using IRIS-Net. Whenever the protection cir-
cuitry of an output channel is activated (e.g. because of
electrical or thermal overload), the related output relays
drop. This happens regardless of the current use of the re-
lays. Upon return to normal operation, the relays are again
released for the configured function.
The use of the relays can be matched to the desired loud-
speaker topology:
The following illustrations show the internal routing of the
integrated relays for the different power amplifier models:
DPA 8150
The DPA 8150 is equipped with a total of 8 integrated re-
lays.

• Output relays: If not configured differently, the relays act as output
relays. When powering on the power amplifier, switching of the relays
is delayed.
• Zone relays: When configured as zone relays, the relays are only
activated when audio signals are being reproduced via the louds-
peaker line/zone.
• A/B relays: Using the relays as A/B relays allows configuring an A/B
loudspeaker zone.

2.6 CONTROL PORT
Internal operating states can be
signaled and control signals can be
transmitted to the amplifier via the
inputs and outputs provided by the
CONTROL PORT. The CONTROL
PORT of a DPA power amplifier offers three control inputs/
outputs as well as reference connectors for VCC and
ground. Configuring the CONTROL PORT is possible in
IRIS-Net.
HINT: Combined with a DPM 8016, the inputs and out-
puts of the control port can be integrated in the
task engine of the DPM 8016.
WHEN USED ASCONTROL INPUT
The connectors 1, 2 and 3 have an internal "Pull up resis-
tor". The control inputs have to be switched to ground for
them to be activated when using external switches, push-
buttons or relays. Input voltages lower than 5 V are evalu-
ated as ON/active while input voltages higher than 10 V are
recognized as OFF/inactive.
WHEN USED ASCONTROL OUTPUT
The connectors 1, 2 and 3 are designed as open collector
outputs, which, when not active (OFF/inactive), have high
impedance. In active state (ON/active) the outputs are
switched to ground. LED indicators, indicators or relays
can be triggered directly. The VCC reference connector
can be used to supply externally connected controls or in-
dicators..
CAUTION: The maximum total amperage at the VCC
output is 300 mA.
READY CONTACT
The control port of a DPA power amplifier provides a float-
ing READY changeover contact. This changeover contact
can be used to signal the operating state of the DPA power

amplifier as well as the occurrence of fault conditions to
other devices. The following table shows the possible
states of the READY contact:
The illustration shows the power amplifier with the
changeover contact being in the "READY" position. The
fault types for which the changeover contact shall switch
and hence shall signal "not operational" can be configured
in IRIS-Net. When integrating the DPA power amplifier in
an alarm system, it is recommended to use the "not oper-
ational" state (closed-circuit principle).
2.7 REMOTE CAN BUS
This paragraph provides information about the
connection of DPA power amplifiers to the RE-
MOTE CAN BUS and about the correct setting of
the CAN address.
CONNECTION TOTHE REMOTE CAN BUS
The DPA power amplifier has two RJ-45 connectors for
connecting to the REMOTE CAN BUS. The connectors are
connected in parallel and serve as input and thru-port for
the remote network. It is possible to use commercially
available RJ-45 network cables for the cabling inside of a
rack shelf. For longer cable length, the CAN guidelines
have to be observed. The CAN bus has to be terminated at
both ends using 120 ohms terminators.
The CAN bus allows using different data rates; wherein the
data rate is inversely proportional to the bus length. Data
rates of up to 500 kbit/s are achievable in smaller net-
works. With larger networks, the data rate needs to be
lowered (as far as down to the minimum data rate of 10
kbit/s).
NOTE: The default setting of the data rate is 10
kbit/s.
The following table explains the relationship between
baud rate and length of the bus or extension of the net-
work. In principle, bus lengths over 1000 meters should
only be realized with repeaters.
The pin assignment of the REMOTE CAN BUS interface can
be seen in the following illustrations.
SETTING THE CAN ADDRESS
The network address of the DPA power
amplifier is set using the two address se-
lector switches. The addresses 1 to 250
(01 hex to FA hex) are available in a CAN
network. Addresses have to be entered
as hexadecimal numbers. The LOW selec-
tor switch is for entering the low digit while the HIGH se-
lector switch is used to enter the high digit.
CAUTION: Each address may be present only once in a
system. Otherwise network conflicts may
occur.

DPA 8000 - 12
Address 0 (00 hex, default setting) separates the DPA
power amplifier from the remote communication. Despite
being connected to the CAN bus, the amplifier does not ap-
pear in the system.
STATUS LED INDICATOR
The following operating states are signaled by the status
LED indicator of the REMOTE CAN BUS on the rear of the
appliance:
2.8 Supply Voltage
Generally, the DPA power amplifier is operated via the
mains input with AC voltage (switchable between 115 V
and 230 V). A battery input is additionally provided for
emergency power supply operation (24 V DC voltage).
MAINS INPUT WITH MAINS FUSE
The connection between the mains outlet
and the power amplifier's mains input has
to be established using the supplied IEC
mains cord only. Always separate the pow-
er amplifier from all supply voltage sourc-
es during installation. When connecting
the power amplifier to the mains make
sure that the used power source complies
with the voltage requirements specified on the amplifier's
type plate. The mains fuse holder is located directly below
the mains input and facilitates the comfortable exchange
of the fuse, without need to open the unit.
Mains Voltage Selector Switch
The mains VOLTAGE SELECTOR
switch allows switching between 230
volts and 115 volts.
NOTE: The default mains voltage setting of the
power amplifier is 230 V AC. If the appliance
is to be operated on 115 V AC, the mains
fuse has to be replaced by a slow-blow fuse
with a rating of 10 ampere, carrying the
imprint "T10A".
MAINS SWITCH
When switched to OFF, the POWER switch
(mains switch) on the rear of the appliance
separates the power amplifier from the
mains. When switched to ON, the power am-
plifier starts booting. A soft-start circuit pre-
vents inrush current peaks. The switching of
the loudspeaker systems is delayed, which
effectively suppresses switching noise.
DC INPUT
In case of a mains voltage breakdown, the
DPA power amplifier automatically
switches to DC power supply. For this to
be effective, connect a 24 V DC power
source to the DC INPUT. The DC input is
protected against inverse polarity and
overload. The corresponding fuse is located inside the
power amplifier and is not accessible from the outside.
CAUTION: It is not possible to deactivate the DC input.
The POWER switch is only for switching off
the mains.
2.9 Installation
The DPA power amplifier is designed for horizontal instal-
lation in conventional 19" rack shelves. In general, the lo-
cation has to be chosen carefully, so that the amplifier is
protected against the following:

FRONT ATTACHMENT OFTHE POWER AMPLIFIER
Refer to the following illustration to attach the front of the
power amplifier, using 4 screws and washers.
The use of rackmount rails is mandatory when installing
the power amplifier in a rack shelf or rack cabinet to pre-
vent the front panel from twisting or warping.

DPA 8000 - 14
3 Operation
3.1 Ventilation
The air flows from the front to the rear in all DYNACORD
power amplifiers with air cooling, since cool fresh air is
rather to be expected on the outside than on the inside of
a rack shelf or rack cabinet. The power amplifier remains
cool and the developing waste heat can be dissipated
more efficiently.
Generally, the power amplifier has to be placed or mount-
ed in a way that the air supply at the front and the vent on
the rear of the unit are not impeded. When installing the
power amplifier in enclosures and rack systems, it is im-
portant to adhere to the fact that sufficient ventilation of
the amplifier has to be possible. Make sure to arrange for
a free air duct up to the vent of the rack shelf or cabinet of
at least 60 mm x 330 mm between the rear panel of the am-
plifier and the inner wall of the cabinet/rack shelf. Also ar-
range for a free space of at least 100 mm above the cabinet
for ventilation. Since during the operation of the power
amplifier, the temperature inside of an enclosure or cabi-
net may increase up to 40 °C, the maximally allowable am-
bient temperature of other devices in the rack shelf system
also has to be taken into account.
When mounted in a rack shelf, DPA Series power amplifi-
ers can be stacked one above the other, without distance
in-between. Since during operation, the enclosures of the
amplifiers may heat up, it may make sense to keep a dis-
tance of 1 height unit (1 HU) to any other device without
forced cooling (Controller, System Manager, etc.).
CAUTION: Make sure that the air vents of a power
amplifier are not blocked or closed. In the
absence of cooling, the amplifier may auto-
matically switch off. Keep all air vents free
of dust deposits, which could impede the
airflow. Do not operate the power amplifier
near heat sources, such as heaters, stoves
or other devices that radiate heat. The maxi-
mum ambient temperature of +45 °C must
not be exceeded to ensure trouble-free
operation.
For installations with central air-cooling or air conditioning
systems, like they are often used in fixed installations in
special equipment rooms, the calculation of the maximum
thermal emission may be necessary. Please also mind the
following paragraphs for further information.
3.2 Heat Development
The tables in chapter Specification can be used to deter-
mine the requirements for power supply and supply lines.
The power drawn from the mains is converted into output
power to feed the loudspeaker systems and heat. The dif-
ference between power consumption and power output is
called power dissipation (Pd). The heat that is generated
by losses might stay in the rack shelf and has to be dissi-
pated by appropriate measures. The tables can be used to
calculate the thermal ratio inside of a rack shelf/cabinet or
for dimensioning the perhaps required ventilation meas-
ures. The Pdcolumn lists the power dissipation for various
operating conditions.
3.3 Standby Operation
In standby mode, the power consumption of the amplifier
significantly reduces. In this respect it does not matter if
the amplifier is powered from the mains input or the DC in-
put. In standby mode, the following functions are still avail-
able:
Standby operation is activated via the REMOTE CAN BUS
and indicated by the STANDBY LED indicator.
3.4 EOL
The End Of Line technology (EOL) allows monitoring the
loudspeaker lines for short-circuit and line interruption.
HINT: EOL monitoring is possible only for devices with
a serial number greater 20000.
MODE OFOPERATION
Install an EOL slave module (PDC-121967) at the end of
the loudspeaker line. The loudspeaker cable transmits the
power for the module (via the inaudible pilot tone) but also
for bidirectional communication between the EOL master
in the power amplifier and the EOL slave module (using
very low-frequency signals).
If communication fails, e.g. if the EOL master receives no
response from the slave, a fault message is being generat-
ed. The unique addressing of slave modules allows the
connection of several slave modules on a single loudspeak-
er cable.
For the communication between the master and the slave
modules, it is necessary to connect the EOL slave modules
to ground. The shielding of the loudspeaker cable, a free

conductor of the loudspeaker cable or another available
grounding point, such as the protective ground of the pow-
er supply system can be used for this.
INSTALLATION OF THE EOL MONITORING
Connect the EOL slave modules to the end of the loud-
speaker cable and use the DIP switches to set the desired
address.
CAUTION: The addresses of the slaves connected to a
single loudspeaker line have to differ from
each other.
CONFIGURATION OF THE EOL MONITORING
In IRIS-Net, input the addresses of the modules connected
to the loudspeaker lines and activate the internal pilot tone
generator of the DPA power.
OPERATION
Independent of the audio signal, the EOL master will cycli-
cally check the presence of the configured EOL slave mod-
ules. If a slave does not respond within 100 seconds a fault
message will be output.
TROUBLESHOOTING
The status LED indicator on the EOL slave module can be
activated via DIP switch. The LED blinking pattern provides
information concerning the different error types.
3.5 Fault Monitoring
The following functions of a DPA power amplifier can be
monitored:
The FAULT LED indicator lights red whenever an error has
been detected in the DPA power amplifier. At the same
time the READY relay switches to "not operational". IRIS-
Net allows configuring the fault types that are to be indi-
cated by the DPA power amplifier. The monitoring of func-
tions that are not being used (e.g. DC voltage monitoring)
has to be deactivated, since otherwise it will result in the
indication of a constant error.
GROUND FAULT MONITORING
When installing and operating 100 V loudspeaker net-
works, compliance with the VDE regulation DIN VDE 0800
is mandatory. Especially, when 100 V loudspeaker net-
works in alarm system applications are concerned, all safe-
ty precautions have to be in accordance with the safety
class 3 standard.
The integrated ground fault monitoring of a DPA power am-
plifier allows the isolation monitoring of the floating loud-
speaker cable network. A detected ground fault either
signals that a cable has been damaged, which may indicate
probable line interruption, or an error in the wiring, which
may lead to malfunctioning. The GROUND LED indicator on
the front panel of the power amplifier lighting red indi-
cates a ground fault that persists for at least 5 seconds.
The LED lights until the power supply of the power ampli-
fier will be interrupted or the error state will be reset, ei-
ther by pressing the FAULT button or via IRIS-Net.
Checking the Functioning
Use a 47 kresistor to test the ground fault monitoring
(not possible in STANDBY mode of the amplifier). The
GROUND LED indicator lights and the READY fault mes-
sage relay switches to "not operational" when the relay
was closed and the resistor is connected for approximately
5 seconds at the output between one pole of the power
output clamp terminals (OUT) to protective ground. LED
indication and fault message have to persist after removing
the resistor. The ground fault monitoring can be reset, ei-
ther by pressing the FAULT button or via IRIS-Net.
PILOT TONE MONITORING
Each audio input has pilot tone monitoring. This is accom-
plished through a constant pilot tone signal feed by the
DPM 8016 into the audio connection to the DPA. The DPA
compares the level of the pilot tone signal to a threshold.
An error message will be output if the threshold is not
reached for a certain period of time. The characteristics of
the pilot tone generator in the DPM (AO-1 module, fre-
quency and level) and the characteristics of the pilot tone
monitoring in the DPA (level and interruption time period)
can be configured in IRIS-Net. In general, use of the default
values is recommended.

1 Einführung
1.1 Power Amplifier
Die Leistungsverstärker der DPA 8000-Serie sind Class-D-
Verstärker und können sowohl am Netz als auch an einer
DC-Versorgung betrieben werden. Die Ausgangsspannung
ist galvanisch getrennt und wird permanent auf Erdschluss
überwacht. Durch einen Stromsparmodus und tem-
peraturgeregelte Lüfter ist ein energiesparender und
geräuscharmer Betrieb möglich. Die Steuerung und Über-
wachung erfolgt über REMOTE CAN BUS. Die Verstärker
wurden für den Betrieb in einer Evakuierungsanlage kon-
zipiert. Die Steuerung erfolgt üblicherweise über den
DPM 8016 und die Konfiguration über IRIS-Net. Werden
Verstärker ohne DPM 8016 betrieben so kann eine
Konfiguration über IRIS-Net erfolgen und permanent im
Verstärker gespeichert werden, so dass bei jedem Ein-
schalten des Gerätes ein gewünschter Zustand (Preset)
eingenommen wird.
1.2 Systemübersicht
Zum PROMATRIX 8000 System gehören folgende Leis-
tungsverstärker
Alle Leistungsverstärker besitzen folgende Eigenschaften:
Die Leistungsverstärker sind prozessorgesteuert und mit
umfangreichen Überwachungsfunktionen ausgestattet.
Für die Überwachung des Prozessorsystems ist eine Wat-
chdog-Schaltung eingebaut. Eine Leitungsüberwachung
sowohl für den CAN-Bus als auch für die Audioübertragung
ermöglicht die Erkennung und Meldung von Leitungsunter-
brechung und Kurzschluss.
Die Leistungsverstärker des PROMATRIX 8000 Systems
können mit IRIS-Net einfach und komfortabel konfiguriert
werden. Mit Hilfe einer grafischen und dialogorientierten
Bedienoberfläche können dabei Eigenschaften bestimmt
werden.
