1. Utilization
The switch-mode power supply rack units DPP4004/4012 are meant for the incorporation into 19“ rack
shelf systems and serve to supply PA-system installations with the operational voltage of 24 V.
The switch-mode power supplies DPP4004/4012 can be operated as single units, together with the PA-
system PROMATRIX, or battery-powered, as well as together with the DYNACORD DEM-system.
Caution: It is not permissible to expose this appliance to dripping or splashing water.
2. First Operation
The switch-mode power supply rack units DPP4004/4012 are to be operated on the 230 VAC mains sup-
ply. Internally switching the appliances to different voltages is possible (please refer to the paragraph 4:
adjusting the mains voltage). Connecting the power supplies is only licit on a accurately installed 3-pole
mains outlet.The mains outlet connector (6) is meant for convenient connection within rack shelf systems.
It is possible to connect other devices to the mains output (6), using a common mains cord. A maximum
power consumption of 1 A should not be exceeded.
3. Functions of the DPP4004/4012
The power supply rack units DPP 4004 and 4012 were designed to supply PA-systems with or without
emergency battery power supply with the necessary power. They can also be used to remotely control
(on/off) several functions. Managing the switching between mains and battery supply is performed auto-
matically.
Using the mains switch (1) (main switch function) on the front of the appliance, it is possible to turn the
system power off completely. To prevent inadvertent erroneous switching, a cover lid can be installed with
the switch being ion its ON-position.
When the switch is set to OFF, all outputs are without current and the MAINS (2) and BATTERY (3) LEDs
are not lit. With the mains switch being engaged, the internal 24 V power supply is provided with mains
voltage. At the same time, the mains output connector on the rear of the appliance gets mains supply
(max. 1 A), allowing the connection of external low-level power consumers (tape decks, etc.). With the
mains switch being engaged and when the appliance is correctly connected and the mains is present, the
MAINS-LED will light. Correspondingly, the BATTERY-LED is lit when a battery power source providing 24
V is correctly connected to the BATTERY IN connectors – (12) and (13) – and with the mains switch being
engaged.
The output voltage of the internal power supply is present at the DIRECT OUT (9) connector. With the
DPP 4004 this connector’s maximum power handling capacity is 4 A; the DPP 4012 provides 12A. The
output offers internal short-circuit protection and it can be operated without load. It also serves to use the
appliance as plain power supply – without battery supply and without remote control.
The output SWITCHED OUT (16) is meant for the connection of the DPM 4000 or other external devices
that need non-interrupted emergency power supply. With the DPP 4004 this connector’s maximum power
handling capacity is 4 A; the DPP 4012 provides 12A. The output offers internal short-circuit protection
and it can be operated without load. Usually, this output is connected to the internal switch-mode power
supply, so that the connected load is supplied with the needed voltage. In case of temporarily insufficient
mains supply, power failure, malfunctioning of the switch-mode power supply or thermal overload of the
DPP 40xx, the SWITCHED OUT (16) is switched to battery supply (when present) within fractions of a se-
cond, providing gapless power supply to the connected devices. When the mains is present again or after
solving the problem that caused the malfunction, the appliance automatically returns with a delay of 600
ms to mains operation. If there is no battery present during the occurrence of a mains complication, the
DPP 40xx behave as if the front mains switch has been switched off; except for the fact that the MAINS
LED is still lit.
15

The output MODULES OUT (14) is meant for the connection of devices (relay-fields, alarm-devices,
voice reproduction, etc.) that can be switched off during a power outage – during which time the PA-
system should operate in the stand-by mode. Switching off unnecessary devices during the occurrence
of a power failure is preferable, otherwise the battery is unnecessarily strained. The output employs a
“softstart” function that controls the initial current inrush, preventing the main supply from interference by
possible control connector) or ON/OFF (MODULES) (pin 2). If the ON/OFF (MODULES) input is connec-
ted to the ground potential, the MODULES OUT output is constantly activated; otherwise it is constantly
deactivated. The input is controlled from the DPM 4000 or from an alarm or gong signal module.
The input ON/OFF (TOGGLE) can be used for installations, where the PA-system has to be switched
“on/off” via remote control (e. g. systems that include DEM-modules).A ground potential contact of the
input switches the system “on”, another one switches the system “off”. The ON/OFF (MODULES) input’s
priority in the “on” state overrides ON/OFF (TOGGLE). The ON/OFF (TOGGLE) condition is also stored
for the time of power failure. Switching the appliance’s mains switch off always sets the TOGGLE-state to
“off” as well. When utilizing the ON/OFF (TOGGLE) and ON/OFF (MODULES), it is important to remem-
ber that the pin-assignment of the floating inputs corresponds to the illustration in chapter 5 (figure 2).
The ON/OFF (TOGGLE) function is deactivated when the appliance is shipped from the factory. To acti-
vate the function, the appliance has to be separated from the mains and the internal jumper has to be set
to “open”.This input can also be used to detect whether another phase failed. The corresponding jumper
must be in place. When short-circuiting the contact and ground, the appliance reacts as if its own mains
failed. In case external phase-monitoring is not wanted, leave this input unused.
The control output (pin 4) MAINS REMOTE ON on the REMOTE socket (10) carries ground potential
when the output MODULES OUT (14) is switched on and with the mains supply being constantly present.
This output can be used to switch remotely controllable power amplifiers of the PROMATRIX and the
DEM Series to mains supply.
The control output (pin 5) BATTERY REMOTE ON on the REMOTE socket (10) carries ground potential
when the output MODULES OUT (14) is switched on and with the mains supply being unstable. This out-
put can be used to switch remotely controllable power amplifiers of the PROMATRIX and the DEM Series
to battery supply.
The control output (pin 6) POWER FAIL OUT on the REMOTE socket (10) signals the loss of the mains
supply (main under voltage, mains failure, temperature overload with insufficient output voltage of the
switch-mode power supply). An output voltage of +24 V indicates that the mains supply is present and
stable. The output’s internal resistance is 1 kW. It is meant for the connection of the DPM 4000, indicating
mains failure conditions.
The control output (pin 7) BATTERY FAIL OUT on the REMOTE socket (10) indicates emergency power
supply failure, while an output voltage of +24V signals that emergency power supply exists. Once the
battery’s voltage value falls below the threshold of approx. 18V, the control output’s voltage drops to 0V
DC.
Procedures with occurring mains failure
In a standard application with mains and emergency battery supply, the outputs SWITCHED OUT and
MODULES OUT are switched to battery supply when a mains failure occurs. Despite, POWER FAIL OUT
signals the loss of mains power and the connected power amplifiers are switched from mains supply to
battery supply via the outputs MAINS REMOTE ON and BATTERY REMOTE ON. When the mains re-
turns, these functions are reversed after a delay of approximately 600 ms.
In case the power is gone for a longer period of time, the battery serves as emergency power supply
until the cut-off voltage of 21 V is reached. When declining that threshold for the first time, all outputs are
being switched off.After the mains being present and stable again, the outputs are switched on again.
This prevents over-discharging the battery.

4. Mains Voltage Selection (only to be carried out by a qualified service technician)
After adjusting the mains voltage, operating the DPP 4004/4012 power supplies with 115 V is also possible.
The adjustment has to be carried out before the operation:
- Remove the cover plate.
- Insert the flat wire bridge on the printed board assembly 86245 into the 115V~ position
(red conductor).
- With the DPP 4004 additional switching of a switch-mode power supply is necessary.
The correspondent switch is located inside the switch-mode power supply (see yellow label).
Remove the front panel (4 screws). Using a suitable screwdriver (size 1), the mains voltage
selector switch which is located behind the perforated coverage – has to be set to the 115V~
position.
A silvery label stating different voltages is located on the right inside of the enclosure.After switching the
appliance to 115V operation, the corresponding label has to be removed and attached to the rear panel, so
that it covers the imprinted marking 230V~ below the mains connector.
The following only applies to the DPP4012:
Exchanging the mains fuses to operate the appliance with 115 V ~ AC:
- Replace the mains fuse (T2,5A/H for 230 V operation) located in the fuse socket (5) with a T5A-type
fuse. The label on the rear panel T2,5A/H which is located below the fuse socket (5) has to be
replaced by the T5A-label.
Lock the top cover plate and the front panel in place.

1 ON/OFF (TOGGLE) INPUT ON/OFF function of the supply output for the modules MODULE
OUT through the pulse contact to the negative potential. Only
functions when pin 11 carries an analogous supply voltage and
when the internal jumper J502 is set to “open”; can be used to
remotely switch the PA-system ON/OFF. The external power-
failure-recognition only functions, when the needed supply-
voltage is connected to pin 11 and when the internal jumper
J 502 is in place. It can also be used for controlling the PA-
installation whenever another phase fails. In that case, identical
functions are carried out, as if a failure in the mains supply of the
DPP 40xx would occur. Contact connected to ground is
equivalent with an ext. mains failure.
2 ON/OFF (MODULES) INPUT ON function of the supply output for the modules MODULE OUT
through permanent contact to the negative potential. Only
functions when pin 10 carries an analogous supply voltage; can
be used to remotely switch the PA-system via the PROMATRIX
System ON/OFF.
3 GND Negative potential for the inputs 1 and 2; in case the internal
supply voltage is utilized for the remote control.
4 MAINS REMOTE ON OUTPUT Control output for power amplifiers of the PROMATRIX
SYSTEM without network operation and for power amplifiers
of the DEM System; signals the switching-on command of
the mains supply via contact to the ground potential.
5 BATTERY REMOTE ON OUTPUT Control output for power amplifiers of the PROMATRIX
SYSTEM without network operation and for power amplifiers
of the DEM System; signals the switching-on command of the
battery supply via contact to the ground potential.
6 POWER FAIL OUT OUTPUT Signals the stable presence of the mains as well as internal
24 V supply voltage via 24 V output voltage; internal
resistance 1 kW.
7 BATTERY FAIL OUT OUTPUT The presence of 24 V output voltage indicates normal
operation of an emergency power supply.
8 GND Negative Potential for the output 7.
9 +24V OUTPUT Supply output for the inputs 1 and 2; cannot be used for any
other purpose.
10 +24V IN (MODULES) INPUT Supply input for the MODULES input; has either to be
connected to pin 9 or needs +24 V supply from an external
source.
11 +24V IN (TOGGLE) INPUT Supply input for the TOGGLE input; has either to be
connected to pin 9 or needs +24 V supply from an external
source.
