Configuring Outputs for Bridge Mono Operation
When more output power is required for
the application, output channel pairs can be
configured for bridge mono operation. This
can be configured in the Amplifier Mode
Settings panel (see
Figure 44
).
When selecting the Bridge Mono option for an
output pair, only the odd-numbered input
channel will need to be wired.
NOTE:
When configured for bridge mono
operation, only one channel in the channel
pair DSP will be available, as shown in
Figure 45
.
Configuring Outputs for Low Z/High Z Operation
The CDi DriveCore's output channels can be configured for Low Z or High Z operation. To
configure the amplifier for High Z operation, select either the 70V or 100V option (see
Figure 46
).
NOTE:
If an amplifier output channel pair is configured for bridge mono operation and
one of the High Z options is selected, the amplifier output will produce 140V or 200V (rather
than 70V or 100V).
NOTE: When configured for High Z operation, a 35Hz
high-pass filter will automatically be applied to the
signal. When configured for Low Z operation, a 10Hz
high-pass filter will automatically be applied to the
signal.

NOTE: The full scale output of the amplifier will change depending on
the Low Z/High Z setting, as well as the amplifier model (see table).
