Adjusting the idling current has to be performed at normal room temperature. In case the power amplifier had
previously been operated, it has to be given several hours to cool off.
4.2. FLOATING - SYMMETRY
Immediately after setting the idle current, a symmetry check of the floating voltage has to be performed. The
power amplifier has to be operated in idling condition. DC-volt meters have to be connected between the
measuring points 1 - 2, and 2 - 3. Using the FLOATING-trim potentiometers that are located on the printed
board assembly 86207/86211, the floating voltage is set symmetric to the ground potential. Not the actual
voltage value is relevant but the symmetry of the + floating voltage and the - floating voltage to the ground
potential.

4.3. VCA - OFFSET:
Rhythmically open and short-circuit the service switch S101 respectively S201 which are located on the printed
board assembly 86207/86211. Use VR101 respectively VR201 to adjust the power amplifier outputs to their
minimum offset (with oscilloscope to minimal peak value or to the audible minimal volume of the interfering
pulse).
Instead of using the service switch, it is also possible to employ the service connector with short-circuited pins
CNASERV 2 and CNASERV 3 for the power amplifier A, or short-circuited pins CNBSERV 2 and CNBSERV
3 for the power amplifier B.
4.4. ADJUSTING THE METER INSTRUMENTS
•
level control set all the way to its clockwise position
• f = 1 kHz
Feed the signal to the inputs A or B so that the IN-LED just lights (U(E) approx. -34 dBu). Adjust the OUT-LED
to approximately the same brightness, using the trim potentiometers VR600 respectively VR601 which are
located on the printed board assembly 86207/86211.
4.5. ADJUSTING THE FANS
Close the service switch S001 on the printed board assembly 86207/86211 or insert a bridge between CNBSERV
5 and CNBSERV 6. Adjust the voltage at CNBSERV 4 to 27.5 V (DC), using the VR700. Switch the service
switch back to normal or detach the bridge.
4.6. GAIN SELECTION:
The power amplifier's input sensitivity can be set using the jumpers J11 … J13 or J21 … J23 which are located
on the printed board assembly 86207/86211. The stated values for the input sensitivity or gain are always
referenced to the level control being set to its fully clockwise position.
CHANNEL A CHANNEL B SELECTION
J11 J21 Input Sensitivity 0 dBu
J12 J22 Input Sensi6 dBu
J13 J23 Gain +26 dB
When shipped, the input sensitivity is set to a value of 0 dBu.

5.2.1. Attenuation test
Both channels separately driven with a 1 kHz signal up to U(A) = 89 V (without load). Increase the input voltage
by 10 dB. The LIMITER LED lights and the output voltage ascents by approx. 0.5 dB to 91 volts, with slight
