made available for bridge connection individually, allowing it to be used as a 1,100 W (8
Ω
) x 2 channels
stereo amplifier or as a 3-channel amplifier comprised of 1,100 W (8
Ω
) + 550 W (4
Ω
) x 2 channels.
The DA-500FH Multichannel Power Amplifier features high power handling of 500 W (100 V line) x 4 channels
(20
Ω

Their wide range of applications include stores and permanent sound systems.
3. FEATURES
• 2U rack mounting size*.
• Low power consumption and light weight.
• An input signal to Channel 1 can be routed to all channels, and the output level adjusted using the input level
control for each channel.
• Electronically-balanced inputs.
• Input terminals employ removable terminal blocks and XLR type connectors to provide maximum connection
ease.
• Input/output status LED indicators for each channel.
• Built-in protection circuitry disconnects the output when a short circuit, overload, or unusual temperature rise
occurs.
• Equipped with the terminals used for internal information monitoring (power supply, protection status, and
fan operation) and power ON/OFF control from external equipment.
* 1U size = 44.5 mm (reference size)
An all-pole mains switch with a contact
separation of at least 3 mm in each pole shall
be incorporated in the electrical installation of
the building.
The lighting flash with arrowhead symbol,
within an equilateral triangle, is intended
to alert the user to the presence of
uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within
the product's enclosure that may be of
sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of
electric shock to persons.
• The unit is designed exclusively to be mounted in
an equipment rack. Be sure to follow the
instructions below when rack-mounting the unit.
Failure to do so may cause a fire or personal injury.
· Install the equipment rack on a stable, hard floor.
Fix it with anchor bolts or take other arrangements
to prevent it from falling down.
· The supplied rack-mounting screws can be used
for the TOA equipment rack only. Do not use
them for other racks.
· When installing the unit in a rack other than that
of TOA, be sure to use the screws with a
diameter of over 5 mm and length of over 12 mm
to mount the unit.
· When connecting the unit's power cord to an AC
outlet, use the AC outlet with current capacity
allowable to the unit.
When the Unit is in Use
• Make sure that all volume controls are set to
minimum position before power is switched on.
Loud noise produced at high volume when power is
switched on can impair hearing.
• Do not operate the unit for an extended period of
time with the sound distorting. This is an indication
of a malfunction, which in turn can cause heat to
generate and result in a fire.
• Contact your TOA dealer as to the cleaning. If dust
is allowed to accumulate in the unit over a long
period of time, a fire or damage to the unit may
result.
• If dust accumulates on the power supply plug or in
the wall AC outlet, a fire may result. Clean it
periodically. In addition, insert the plug in the wall
outlet securely.
• Switch off the power, and unplug the power supply
plug from the AC outlet for safety purposes when
cleaning or leaving the unit unused for 10 days or
more. Doing otherwise may cause a fire or electric
shock.
