TP-170V Constant-Voltage
Transformer Panel
The Crown
®
TP-170V is a rack-mountable panel
with four autoformers to provide impedance match-
ing between amplifier outputs and “constant volt-
age” loudspeakers. This unit allows amplifiers with-
out direct 70V or 100V output capability to drive
distributed speaker systems designed to operate
at those voltages. The TP-170V is constructed of
sturdy steel, and hinged on one side to allow easy
access to the inside connections.
ACCESSORIES
VCA-MC4A & VCA-MC8
` FEATURES
• Independent remote level control for each
channel
• 4-pin removable Phoenix-style barrier
connectors provide the +10VDC control
voltage, ground, and control lines for two
amplifier channels
• Optional wall-mount level control panels for
use with VCA modules: 1-VCAP and 4-VCAP
Remote Level Control
The Crown VCA-MC4A and VCA-MC8 are optional
level-control modules for the Crown CTs multi-chan-
nel power amplifiers. The VCA-MC4A is for the CTs
4200, and the VCA-MC8 is for the CTs 8200.
A VCA-MC module provides independent remote
level control for each channel. 4-pin removable
Phoenix-style barrier connectors provide the
+10VDC control voltage, ground, and control lines
for two amplifier channels. Thus, the 4-channel
CTs 4200 uses two connectors; the 8-channel CTs
8200 uses four connectors. Crown CTs 4200 and
8200 amplifiers can be supplied with a VCA-MC
module already factory-installed, or your choice of
MC modules can be easily added to the amplifier
by any authorized Crown Service Center.
Choosing the Right Module
To order accessory modules for your amplifier, please
refer to the model tag (located on the back panel of the
amplifier) for your amplifier’s specific model number.
Then refer to the information below to select the correct
accessory for your requirements.
CTs4200: VCA-MC4 or IQ-MC4
CTs 4200A: VCA-MC4A or IQ-MC4A
CTs 8200 or CTs 8200A: VCA-MC8 or IQ-MC8
Regulatory Certifications
For all CTs Multi-Channel Amp Accessories:
1-VCAP & 4-VCAP
` FEATURES
• 1-VCAP provides remote volume control for
one or more CTs amplifier channels
• Fits into a 1-gang electrical box
• 4-VCAP provides remote volume control for
four or more CTs amplifier channels
• Fits into a 2-gang electrical box
Wall-Mount Controllers
Crown VCAP panels are wall-mounted panels
with potentiometers that provide remote control
of the volume of Crown CTs amplifier channels
via a VCA-MC4 or VCA-MC8 module installed in
the amplifier. Two models are available: 1-VCAP
and 4-VCAP.
1-VCAP: Used in conjunction with a VCA-MC
module, this is a 1-gang panel with one poten-
tiometer that provides remote volume control
for one or more CTs amplifier channels. The
potentiometer on the panel is wired directly
to the VCA connectors on the VCA-MC.
4-VCAP: This is a 2-gang panel with four poten-
tiometers that provide remote volume control
for four or more CTs amplifier channels. The
potentiometers on the panel are wired directly
to the VCA connectors on the VCA-MC.
T-170V Constant-Voltage Transformer
The Crown T-170V is a single autoformer that
provides impedance matching between an ampli-
fier output and “constant voltage” loudspeakers. It
allows amplifiers without direct 70V or 100V out-
put capability to drive distributed speaker systems
designed to operate at those voltages.
