Connections to the Fault Relay are made using the 2-pin Orange Phoenix connector designated R-
Control. A separate Fault Relay is needed for each 8-channel DSP controlled digital amplifier; an
IC24, for example, would have 3 Fault relays.
To prevent contact wear, it is suggested that the input of the circuit used with the contacts have a
0.1µFd 50V or higher capacitor connected between the leads of that input. In the case of multiple
switches wired in a series or parallel connection to a single input, only one capacitor is needed.
The Fault Relay can be programed for one of 4 modes of operation using two programming jumpers
each with two positions. J1 (jumper 1) has positions A and B while J3 has positions C and D. The
four possible operation modes are:
1. When the power is off, the contact is closed. When the power is turned on, the contact may open
momentarily while the unit does a self test then goes closed. The contact then goes open if that col-
umn faults out. The contact closes again if the power is shut off. Combination BD
2. When the power is off, the contact is open. When the power is turned on, the contact may close
momentarily while the unit does a self test then goes open. The contact then goes closed if that col-
umn faults out. The contact opens again if the power is shut off. Combination BC
3. When the power is off, the contact is closed. When the power is turned on, the contact changes to
open. The contact then goes closed if that column faults out or the power shuts off. Combination AD
4. When the power is off, the contact is open. When the power is turned on, the contact changes to
closed. The contact then goes open if that column faults out or the power shuts off. Combination AC
Mode 3 is the most popular one and the one used on all orders unless another mode is requested.
The operational mode can be changed in the field by removing the side panel adjacent to the orange
Phoexix connector and changing the jumpers on the Fault Relay PC board.
INSTALLATION
General Information
Your Iconyx column array was designed to be easy to install on either a flat surface such as a wall or
suspended from a ceiling. Note that it was not designed to be mounted in the wall or in an alcove.
The amplifers are convection cooled and their heat sinks require at least an inch of separation from
the nearest surface.
Optional hinge kits allow wall mounted column arrays to be rotated 90 degrees away from the wall to
provide easy access to the rear access ports during installation and for routine testing and service.
They also provide the separation needed for cooling.
The actual installation should be made either by or under the close supervision of someone experi-
enced in installation techniques and rigging.
WALL MOUNTING
The following instructions assume that the column array(s) will be mounted using Renkus-Heinz HK
series hinge kits.
Unless the hinge kits were ordered separately from the column array(s) the female hinge sections
and mounting plates will already be attached to the column array.
