1/4 or less	115

According to OSHA, any exposure in excess of the above permissible limits could result in some hearing loss. Ear plugs or protectors to the ear canals or over the ears must be worn when operating this amplification system in order to prevent a permanent hearing loss, if exposure is in excess of the limits as set forth above. To ensure against potentially dangerous exposure to high sound pressure levels, it is recommended that all persons exposed to equipment capable of producing high sound pressure levels such as this amplification system be protected by hearing protectors while this unit is in operation.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!

Congratulations on your purchase of a Peavey CS Series power amplifier! Designed for years of reliable operation, CS Series amplifiers offer the sonic superiority and unsurpassed reliability for which Peavey is famous in a rugged, compact unit. Advanced technologies and extensive protection circuitry allow operation with greater efficiency, even under difficult loads and power conditions. The DDT™ (Distortion Detection Technique) circuit ensures trouble-free operation into loads as low as 2 ohms, protects speakers and ensures sonic integrity even in extreme overload conditions. Peavey's high-efficiency design uses tunnel-cooled heat sinks and dual-speed DC fans for consistent lower overall operating temperature, resulting in longer output transistor life.

Peavey CS Series amplifiers are simple to operate and housed in ultra-strong steel chassis, but improper use can be dangerous. Some CS Series amplifiers are very high powered and can put out high voltages and sizable currents at frequencies up to 30 kHz. Always use safe operating techniques with these amplifiers.

FOR YOUR SAFETY, READ THE IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS SECTION, AS WELL AS INPUT, OUTPUT AND POWER CONNECTION SECTIONS.

Unpacking

Upon unpacking, inspect the amplifier. If you find any damage, notify your supplier immediately. Only the consignee (the supplier from whom you purchased the amplifier) may institute a claim with the carrier for damage incurred during shipping. Be sure to save the carton and all packing materials. Should you ever need to ship the unit back to Peavey or one of its offices, service centers or the supplier, use only the original factory packing. If the shipping carton is unavailable, contact Peavey to obtain a replacement.

Mounting

CS Series amplifiers will mount in standard 19" racks. Rear mounting ears are also provided for additional support, which is recommended in non-permanent installations like mobile or touring sound systems. Because of the cables and connectors on the rear panel, a right angle or offset screwdriver or hex key will make it easier to fasten the rear mounting ears to the rails.

Cooling Requirements

CS 800 × 4 amplifier uses a forced-air cooling system to maintain a low, consistent operating temperature. Air is drawn into the amplifier by a fan on the back panel and courses through the cooling fins of the tunnel-configured channel heat sink, then exhausts through the front panel grille. If the heat sink gets too hot, sensing circuits will open the output relays for the hot channels, disconnecting the load for those channels. It is important to have an air inlet at the back of the amplifier to allow cooling air to enter. If the amp is rack mounted, do not use doors or covers on the back of the rack, as the intake air must flow without resistance. Make sure that there is one (1) standard rack space opening for every three mounted power amplifiers.

Operating Precautions

Make sure the mains voltage is correct and the same as that printed on the rear of the amplifier. Damage caused by connecting the amplifier to improper AC voltage is not covered by any CS® Series warranty. See the Connecting Power section for more information on voltage requirements.

Note: Always turn off and disconnect the amplifier from mains voltage before making audio connections. Also, as an extra precaution, have the attenuators turned down during power-up.

Before powering up, turn the attenuator controls down to prevent speaker damage if there is a high signal level at the inputs. Always use high-quality input and speaker cables to ensure trouble-free operation. Most intermittent problems are caused by faulty cables.

Consult the Wire Gauge Charts (page 9) to determine proper gauges for differing load impedances and cable lengths. Cable resistance robs amplifier power in two ways: power lost directly to resistance (1^2R loss) and by increasing the impedance of the load presented to the amplifier, thereby decreasing the power demanded of the amplifier.

Connecting Inputs

Input connections are made via the three-pin XLR (pin 2+) or 6.3mm plug "combi" connectors on the rear panel of the amplifier. The inputs are actively balanced and the overload point is high enough to accept the maximum output level of virtually any signal source.

Connecting Outputs

The CS 800x4 has one Speakon® connector per channel. The connectors for channels 1 and 3 include the output of channels 2 and 4 to facilitate Bridged mode operation.

Connecting Power

CS Series amplifier power requirements are rated at 1/8 power (typical music conditions) and 1/3 power (extreme music conditions). The maximum power current draw rating is limited only by the front panel circuit breaker. Consult the specifications in the Appendices section for figures on the current that each amplifier will demand. Unless otherwise specified when ordered, Peavey amplifiers shipped to customers are configured as follows:

North America - 120VAC/60Hz

Europe, Asia, Australia - 230/240VAC/60-50Hz

South America - 120VAC/60Hz or 240VAC/50Hz

Note: Always turn off and disconnect the amplifier from mains voltage before making audio connections. As an extra precaution, have the attenuators turned down while powering up.

WARNING

THE ON/OFF SWITCH IN THIS APPARATUS DOES NOT BREAK BOTH SIDES OF THE MAINS. HAZARDOUS ENERGY MAY BE PRESENT INSIDE THE ENCLOSURE WHEN THE POWER SWITCH IS IN THE OFF POSITION.

Stereo Operation

For stereo (dual channel) operation, turn the amplifier OFF and set the mode select switches to the stereo position. In this mode, the respective channels operate independently of each other, with their input attenuators controlling their respective levels. Thus, a signal at channel 1's input produces an amplified signal at channel 1's output, while a signal at channel 2's input produces an amplified signal at channel 2's output. The same applies to channels 3 and 4 when their respective mode switch is in the Stereo position.

Parallel Operation

For parallel operation (dual-channel operation through one input), turn the amplifier OFF and set the mode switch to the Parallel position; both amplifier channels are then driven by the signal at channel 1's input (no jumper wires are required). Output connections are the same as in Stereo mode. In Parallel mode, the input connectors on channel 1 and channel 2 are strapped together to allow patching to another amplifier or to channels 3 or 4. Both input attenuators remain active, allowing you to set different levels for each channel. Power and other general performance specifications are the same as in Stereo mode. The same applies to channels 3 and 4 when their respective mode switch is in the Parallel position; the input connectors on channels 3 and 4 are strapped together to allow patching to another amplifier.

Bridged Mono Operation

Two amplifier channels (1 and 2 or 3 and 4, respectively), can be bridged together to make a very powerful single-channel monaural amplifier. Use extreme caution when operating in Bridged mode; potentially lethal voltage may be present at the output terminals. To bridge the amplifier, slide the rear panel amplifier mode select switch to the Bridge position. Direct the signal to channel 1's input and connect the speakers across the hot outputs (the “1+POS” and “2+NEG” Speakon® connector) for channel 1. As with Parallel mode, both input connectors are strapped together to drive the input of another amplifier. The same applies to channels 3 and 4. Connect the speakers across the “1+POS” and “2+NEG” Speakon connector for channel 3.

When operating in the bridged mode, both attenuators of a respective set of channels (i.e. channel 1 and 2 or 3 and 4) must be in the same position so the speaker load will be equally shared between the channels.

Unlike Stereo and Parallel modes, in which one side of each output is at ground, both sides are hot in Bridged mode. Channel 1's side is the same polarity as its input with the minimum nominal load impedance being 4 ohms (equivalent to driving both channels at 2 ohms) in Bridged mode. Driving bridged loads of less than 4 ohms will activate the DDT™ circuitry, resulting in a loss of power, and may also cause a thermal (overheating) overload.

Rear Panel

Switches & Controls

AC Power Circuit Breakers (1)

The CS® 800x4 amplifier has two circuit breakers on the back panel. If circuit breaker shuts off during normal use, push it back to the ON position once. If it will not stay ON, the amplifier needs servicing.

Input Attenuators (2)

Whenever possible, set the attenuators fully clockwise to maintain optimum system headroom. The four input attenuator controls located at the front panel decrease gain (signal level) for the respective amplifier channels in all modes. See the specifications at the end of this manual for standard voltage gain and input sensitivity information.

Mode Select Switch (3)

When operating in Bridged mode, both attenuators of a respective set of channels (i.e. channels 1 and 2 or 3 and 4) must be in the same position so the speaker load will be equally shared between the channels. See the section on Bridged Mono Operation for more information and precautions.

Indicators

CS® Series amplifiers feature three front panel LED indicators per channel: PWR (power), SIG (signal), and DDT™ (Distortion Detection Technique). These LED indicators inform the user of each channel's operating status and warn of possible abnormal conditions.

PWR LED (1)

The Power LED indicates that its channel's output relay is closed and the channel is operational.

SIGLED(2)

The Signal LED illuminates when its channel produces an output signal of greater than 1 volt RMS or 25mV input with a 0 dB attenuation of the front panel knobs. This is useful in determining whether a signal is reaching and being amplified by the amplifier. If the Signal LED is illuminated but no sound is present, that means a signal is present at the amplifier but a problem may exist after the amplifier, such as in the cables or speakers.

DDT LED (3)

A channel's DDT LED will illuminate at the onset of clipping. If the LEDs are flashing quickly and intermittently, the channel is just at the clip threshold, while a steady, bright glow means the amp is clip limiting, or reducing gain to prevent severely clipped waveforms from reaching the speakers. See Distortion Detection Technique Limiting under the Protection Features section for more information.

Protection Features

The CS® 800x4 amplifier incorporates several circuits to protect both itself and loudspeakers under virtually any situation. Peavey has made this amplifier as foolproof as possible by making it immune to short and open circuits, mismatched loads, DC voltage and overheating. If a channel goes into the DDT™ gain reduction mode, the DDT LED illuminates. The speaker load remains connected, but clipping percentage or output power is instantly reduced. When a problem occurs that causes a channel to go into a protection mode, the PWR (Power) LED for that channel will turn off. DC voltage on the output, excessive subsonic frequencies, or thermal overload will cause the channel's output relay to disconnect the speaker load until the problem is corrected or the amplifier cools down.

Distortion Detection Technique (DDT) Limiting

Any time a channel is driven into hard, continuous clipping, the DDT circuit will automatically reduce the channel gain to a level just slightly into clipping, guarding the speakers against the damaging, high-power, continuous square waves that may be produced. Situations that may activate the DDT circuit include uncontrolled feedback, oscillations, an improper equipment setting or malfunction upstream from the amplifier. Normal program transients will not trigger DDT; only steady, excessive clipping will cause the DDT LED to illuminate.

LFC Impedance Sensing

The CS 800 × 4 amplifier features innovative circuitry for safe operation into any load. When an amplifier senses a load that overstresses the output stage, the Load Fault Correction circuit adjusts the channel gain to a safe level. Extreme load fault under high power levels will cause the signal to be muted for the associated channel. This method of output stage protection is far more effective than the standard limiting found on conventional power amplifiers. The LFC circuit is sonically transparent in normal use and unobtrusive when activated.

Thermal Protection

The internal fan will keep the amplifier operating well within its intended temperature range under all normal conditions. If the heat sink temperature reaches 85^ , which may indicate an obstructed air supply, the channels will protect themselves by disconnecting their load and shutting down until the heat sink has cooled. During this time, the PWR LED will go out, the DDT LED will stay lit and the cooling fan will continue operating at high speed.

Short Circuit

If an output is shorted, the LFC and thermal circuits will automatically protect the amplifier. The LFC circuit senses the short circuit as an extremely stressful load condition and attenuates the signal, protecting the channel's output transistors from over current stress. If the short circuit remains, the amplifier will eventually thermally protect itself by opening both channel speaker relays, disconnecting the loads until the heat sink cools down.

DC Voltage Protection

If an amplifier channel detects DC voltage or subsonic frequencies at its output terminals, its speaker relay opens and disconnects the load to prevent speaker damage.

Turn-On/Turn-Off Protection

Upon powering-up, the amplifier mutes the input signals and stays in Protect mode with the speaker connect relays open for approximately four seconds. This allows the internal power supplies to charge and the amplifier to stabilize. After the relays engage, the signals slowly increase the muted signals to their normal level. Also, when power is removed, the input signals are muted so that no thumps or pops are heard.

Protection Features

RampUp™ Signal Control

Whenever the CS^ ® 800 × 4 amplifier powers up or comes out of a protect mode, the RampUp circuit activates. While the speakers are disconnected, the RampUp circuit fully attenuates the signal and activates the DDT LED. After the output relay closes, the signal slowly and gradually raises to its set level. The PWR LED will illuminate and the DDT LED will turn off when the signal is no longer attenuated. The RampUp Signal Control circuit has some important advantages over the conventional instant-on circuits:

1. If a signal is present during power-up (or when coming out of protect), the speakers are spared a sudden, potentially damaging burst of audio power.
2. Because the gain is reduced until after the output relay closes, no arcing occurs at the contacts, thereby extending their useful life.

Speaker Protection

All loudspeakers have electrical, thermal and physical limits that must be observed to prevent damage or failure. Excessive power, low frequencies applied to high frequency drivers, severely clipped waveforms and DC voltage can all be fatal to cone and compression drivers. Peavey CS® Series amplifiers automatically protect speakers from DC voltages and subsonic signals. If using an electronic crossover, be extremely careful that the low and mid bands are connected to the correct amplifiers and drivers and not to those designed for a higher frequency band. An amplifier's clipping point is its maximum peak output power, and some of the higher powered Peavey CS Series amplifiers can deliver more power than many speakers can safely handle. Be sure the peak power capability of the amplifier is not excessive for your speaker system. For more information, see the section on Protection Features.

Fuses may also be used to limit power to speaker drivers, although as current-limiting rather than voltage-limiting devices, they are an imperfect solution, and as the weakest links, they only limit once before needing replacement. Some poor-quality fuses have a significant series resistance that could degrade the amplifier's damping of the speaker's motion and may even deteriorate the system's sound quality. If you elect to use fuses, check with the speaker manufacturer to determine the proper current rating and time lag required.

Do not drive any low frequency speaker enclosure with frequencies lower than its own tuned frequency; the reduced acoustical damping could cause a ported speaker to bottom out even at moderate power. Consult the speaker system specifications to determine its frequency limits.

Amplifier Maintenance and User Responsibility

The CS® 800x4 amplifier requires no routine maintenance and should not need internal adjustment during its lifetime. Your CS 800x4 amplifier is very powerful and can be potentially dangerous to loudspeakers and humans alike. It is your responsibility to read the Important Precautions section and to make sure that the amplifier is installed, wired and operated properly as instructed in this manual. Many loudspeakers can be easily damaged or destroyed by overpowering, especially with the high power available from a bridged amplifier. Read the Speaker Protection section and always be aware of the speaker's continuous and peak power capabilities.
