Mounting front grille The front grille is shipped on top of the amplifier inside the box to protect it during shipping. The front grille adheres to the amplifier with magnets.
8. Cooling and fan operation 8. Cooling and fan operation D Series devices use a forced-air cooling system with airflow from front to rear, allowing high continuous power levels without thermal problems. To facilitate maximum air flow, ensure that no objects such as rack doors or lids are placed at the front or rear of the rack. Never attempt to reverse the airflow.
10. Grounding Connecting the amplifier in three phase delta configuration In three-phase configuration where the phases are 120 degrees apart, one can connect three balanced loads in a delta configuration. The connection is made between the phases instead of between the neutral and a phase.

13. Quick Start Tutorial 13.3. System setup The setup guide describes how to get a simple system up and running, connect audio through to the amplifier, and make basic configurations of the amplifier. This guide assumes you have a Tesira Server IO with an analog input card, a D Series amplifier and an AVB switch. To pass audio through the system you will also need a signal source and a speaker. Create Tesira system configuration 1. Open Tesira software 2.
13. Quick Start Tutorial Compile the system 1. Compile your system by hitting the compile button in the standard Bar or select System > Compilation > Compile active partition Assign physical units to the imaginary units in the system design 1. If the server is already running an old configuration or you are unsure of its state it needs to be reset to become available.
13. Quick Start Tutorial 13.4. Basic Configuration In the Tesira software, double click the amplifier block. The D Series configuration window opens. Here you can check the amplifier for any potential faults and warnings and monitor signal status. You can also control STANDBY/ ON state and other amplifier channel functions such as mute, level and invert. Also, the Auto power down (APD) functionality can be configured (default APD is disabled).
14. Faults and warnings 14. Faults and warnings Category/Type Name On screen text Description Action Increase mains distribution stiffness or reduce output power to avoid limiting ALARM Warning Minor Tesira fault active in the device Warning Under Voltage Limit UVL ACTIVE The Under Voltage limiter is active as the mains supply is approaching the lower end of the device´s operational voltage.
14. Faults and warnings Category/Type Name On screen text Description Action Fault Mains voltage above 270 V MAINS > 270 V Power supply detects mains voltage above operation voltage. Protective shut down, auto restart attempt Check mains distribution/ connection Fault Mains voltage below 65 V MAINS < 65 V Power supply detects mains voltage below operation voltage.
