RACK MOUNTING

Optional handles shown. Use four screws and washers to mount

the amplifier to the equipment rack rails. To use the

amplifier outside a rack, attach the self-adhesive

rubber feet to the bottom.

COOLING

Air flows from the rack, into the back of the amplifier, and out

the front. This keeps the rack cool. The fan automatically runs

faster when the amp is working hard.

Do not block the front or rear air vents!

AC MAINS

Connect AC power to the IEC socket on the back of the ampli-

fier. NOTE: Turn off the AC power switch before connecting AC

power. The AC Switch must be turned on to use remote control

systems or the Standby function.

SETTING THE MODE SWITCHES

The CX108V has four 2-channel amplifiers in one chassis. Each

of the 2-channel pairs has its own DataPort and mode

switches for Stereo, Parallel, or Bridge mode. The channel

pairs are: Ch. 1-2, Ch. 3-4, Ch. 5-6, Ch. 7-8. Each channel has

independent clip limiting and low frequency (LF) filtering.

SETTING CLIP LIMITERS

Each channel has a clip limiter with its own on-off switch. The

limiter only responds to actual clipping, and automatically

compensates for load and voltage variations. Clip limiting is

generally recommended, especially to protect high frequency

drivers.

Set switch UP to use Clip Limiting.

Switch 1 controls the first channel.

Switch 10 controls the second channel.

Air flow in QSC amplifiers: Cool air is drawn

into the rear of the amplifier by the cooling fan.

Warm air exits the front of the amplifier.

The correct AC line voltage is shown on the serial

number label, on the rear panel. Connecting to the

wrong line voltage may damage the amplifier or

increase the risk of electric shock.
