Quick Start Guide
This quick start guide gives you an overview of all the front and rear panel controls and connections on the MFA
series amplifiers. It allows you to get started with the installation of it in your project. The functionality of innovative
Audac products is continuously improved and updated. Therefore frequent firmware updates of your equipment
are automatically downloaded (if connected to the network and enabled) and recommended. To get a detailed and
up-to-date explanation of all functions, please check the complete manual which is available on the web page
https://manuals.audac.eu/mfa208
or scan the QC code as shown on top of this page.
1) Display with tactile push buttons and rotary
selection dial:
A clear system overview and intuitive user experience is
offered using the 2.8” graphical LCD display accompanied
with four tactile selection buttons (left side) and a rotary
selection dial (right side). The color display offers a clear
overview of the system’s current operation mode with
intuitive and user-friendly browsing through the menu
structure.
The functionality of the four push buttons depends on
the current operation mode and position in the menu
structure. In the main menu, the upper one allows access
to the module functions, while the second and third gives
you access to volume settings (amplifier and line out).
The lower one redirects you to the settings menu.
In other menu’s, corresponding icons are shown on
the left side of the display. Parameter adjustment and
browsing are made easy using the rotary function dial.
This multifunctional dial allows easy one-hand operation
throughout the entire menu structure. Browsing through
the menu is done by rotating it while actions are made
by pressing it.
2) USB slot:
The USB slot is internally connected with the module slot
and can be used for data storage, media playback or any
other supported functions (if supported by the module).
Addtionally, the USB connection can be used for firmware
updates to the system.
3) 3.5 mm jack input:
The 3.5 mm jack input is an unbalanced stereo line
input whereto any (portable) device such as laptop,
smartphone or tablet with 3.5 mm jack audio output
can be connected. This input is combined with the line
input on the rear amplifier side (RCA), meaning the rear
side input is disabled when the front 3.5 mm jack is
connected.
4) Indicator LED (VU):
The (VU) indicator leds indicate the output level and
status of the amplifier (Signal / -20 dB / Clip / Protect).
5) Power switch:
Allows to power the system ON and OFF. The indicator
LED illuminates in orange color when in standby and
illuminates in blue when switched on. When powering
on, it takes about 10 seconds before the amplifier is
switched on and fully operational;
