CAM160 / CAM80 – 

9

GND and 100V are used to connect 100V speakers 

 

Use Class II wiring:

8. AC Power

The CAM160 and CAM80 are fitted with a detachable IEC 

socket for AC input.

Each unit is fitted with a universal power supply, allowing 

it to operate from any AC mains supply from 100 to 240 

VAC, 50-60 Hz.

A 6-foot U-Ground to IEC power cable is supplied.

An integrated, removable, AC input fuse is fitted just below 

the IEC socket. To remove or inspect the fuse, first unplug 

the power cord from the AC socket. Then use a small 

screwdriver to gently pry open the rectangular fuse holder 

and inspect or replace the fuse. Replacement fuses must 

be of the same rating as the original fuse.

Low voltage fuses are located internally.

9. DC Power

These terminals allow the amplifier to be powered using 24 

VDC emergency power supplies.

The unit will automatically switch to external DC battery 

power if your local AC power fails. You will need to 

connect an external 24 Volt battery to the DC battery 

terminals.

Make absolutely sure the positive post of your battery 

connects to the positive terminal, and the negative 

post connects to the negative terminal. To minimize the 

voltage drop across the wires and prevent overheating, use 

at least 14 AWG insulated wire.

The unit seamlessly switches to the backup supply if 

there's a power loss, allowing safety instructions and 

emergency communications to continue. When both AC 

power and 24 VDC power are connected, the AC power is 

used and no current is drawn from the DC supply.

Note:

 The unit will not charge the battery, so you should 

have a dedicated charging system. Note also, that when 

running on DC power, the output is lower than when 

running on AC power.
