Introduction Thank you for choosing a QSC MP-A Series amplifier. This manual provides a comprehensive guide to the features and functions of the MP-A20V, MP-A40V, and MP-A80V amplifiers. Please read through this manual in its entirety to become fully acquainted with its functions and configuration options. The MP-A Series power amplifiers are designed for Background Music and Paging applications.
How to Set Up Your Loudspeakers and Amplifier When designing your system, best practice is to leave approximately 20% power headroom, leaving approximately 320 W for use. Rules for the 4 Ω and 8 Ω DIP Switch Settings (Refer to Figure 4) Use the 4 Ω setting for 4 Ω to 7 Ω loudspeakers; use the 8 Ω setting for 8 Ω 8Ω + 8Ω or more. = 4Ω Load 1. 2. 3. 1. 2. 3. 4.

Connections Wiring • For all wiring • Strip Length = 5mm See Figure 7. • DO NOT TIN! 5mm 1:1 — Figure 7 — IMPORTANT!: Class 2 Wiring on all outputs. Outputs IMPORTANT!: Class 2 Wiring on all outputs • One for each channel • 3.5 mm Euro, 4-pin (green) MP-A20V (1x) MP-A40V (2x) MP-A80V (4x) -+ CAUTION!: Do not connect any output to ground. The outputs are configured individually for the application intended for that particular output. DIP switches are provided to perform the configuration.
Inputs Refer to Figure 9 • One Input for each Channel • 3.5 mm Euro, 3-pin (green – one for each Input) • Cable Tie (one for each input) MP-A20V (2x) MP-A40V (4x) MP-A80V (8x) — Figure 9 — MP-A20V (x2) MP-A40V (x4) MP-A80V (x8) Balanced or Unbalanced 2 Refer to Figure 10 • Balanced inputs require three wires: ground, negative, and positive. • Unbalanced requires a jumper between the ground pin and the negative pin. 3 1 Balanced Unbalanced Input Levels Input sensitivity: 1.
Remote Remote provides the capability of controlling and monitoring the status of the amplifier from a remote location. Figure 11 • One per amplifier • 3.5 mm Euro, 5-pin (black) Not Standby Standby NO C NC Standby The REMOTE STBY contacts provide the functionality to put the amplifier into standby, and to take it out of standby from a remote location. Figure 12 — Figure 11 — • Connect the two STBY pins on the REMOTE connector to the two pins of a toggle switch.
