The front panel of ISA series amplifiers is tailored for installed sound. The power switch is the only front panel control; gain controls are located on the rear panel to minimize control tampering. LED indicators are provided for power , input signal and to warn of clipping. If the POWER LED fails to illuminate when the switch is in the ON positio[...]

FEA TURES & SETUP- LED INDICA TORS CLIP : red LED that illuminates when the amplifier clips. Normal indication: illumination briefly at extreme output power peaks. Occasional clipping (once briefly every few seconds) when operation at high power levels is normal. At power -on, the clip LEDs may briefly flash; this is normal. Continuous operatio[...]

FEA TURES & SETUP- GAIN CONTROLS & INPUT JACKS GAIN CONTROLS- The Gain controls are located on the rear panel to minimize control tampering after installation. When viewing the amplifier from the rear , they are on the left end, top and bottom, as shown in the illustration to the right. The Gain controls are detented (11 steps) for repeatab[...]

DA T APORT V2- What It Is- The DataPort V2 is used for connection to optional QSC DataPort accessories. DataPort accessory devices can provide remote cinema monitoring, DSP , filter and crossover functions. The “ V2 ” DataPort connection is a “ version-2 ” of QSC ’ s original DataPort. It has a reduced feature set from the original, while[...]

FEA TURES & SETUP- STEREO & P ARALLEL OPERA TING MODES P ARALLEL: The channel 1 and channel 2 inputs are connected together , applying a single input signal to both channels of the amplifier . A signal into any input jack will drive both channels. Each channel's low frequency filtering, clip limiting, and gain control still function in[...]

FEA TURES & SETUP- STEREO & P ARALLEL MODE DIP SWITCH SETTINGS ISA 280, ISA 450, ISA 750: Refer to the switch setting keys for each mode, to the right. These keys are printed on the amplifier ’ s rear panel for easy reference when you are behind the equipment rack. SETTING THE DIP SWITCHES FOR STEREO OR P ARALLEL MODE- “T” models ISA [...]

FEA TURES & SETUP- BRIDGE OPERA TING MODE & DIP SWITCH SETTINGS BRIDGE MODE OPERA TION- Note that speaker connection for bridge mono mode is different than other modes. See section on Connections: Outputs for proper bridge mode output connections.[...]

FEA TURES & SETUP- LOW FREQUENCY FIL TER & DIP SWITCH SETTINGS SETTING THE FIL TER DIP SWITCHES- 1- Set switch #3 and #8 to the on or off position as desired. 2- Select the desired roll-off frequency at switch #2 and #9. 3- If filter off is selected, the frequency selection has no effect. If operating in BRIDGE MODE- 1- When in bridge mode,[...]

FEA TURES & SETUP- CLIP LIMITER & DIP SWITCH SETTINGS CAUTION: Clip limiting reduces extreme overdrive peaks, allowing a higher average signal level without audible distortion. However , increasing the gain with the clip limiter engaged, until clipping is again audible, can double the average output power . Be careful not to exceed the powe[...]

INST ALLA TION: RACK MOUNTING AND MOUNTING DIMENSIONS Securing the Front Ears to the Rack Rails Use four screws and washers when mounting the ISA amplifier to the front rails. Support the weight of the amplifier while securing it to the rails to avoid bending or distorting the front rack mount ears. ISA Rack Mounting Method 2- The amplifier is firs[...]

INST ALLA TION: COOLING REQUIREMENTS & AC MAINS FAN COOLING- Keep the front and rear vents clear to allow full air flow . Make sure that plenty of cool air can enter the rack, especially if there are other units which exhaust hot air into it. Connecting to the wrong line voltage is dangerous and may damage the amplifier or constitute the risk o[...]

Unbalanced inputs : Connect the conductors to the connector as shown. Make sure that the unused side of the balanced input is connected to ground, as shown. XLR: unbalanced connection T erminal block: unbal anced connections XLR : balanced connection T erminal block: bal anced connections CONNECTIONS: INPUTS- XLR & TERMINAL BLOCK jumper shield [...]

CONNECTIONS: INPUTS- DA T APORT V2 The ISA series of amplifiers come with a DataPort V2 connector that may be used for connecting to accessory QSC DataPort devices. The V2 (or version 2) DataPort does not have the full capability of the standard DataPort. The DataPort V2 must be connected to a QSC DataPort product with a QSC DataPort cable; similar[...]

CONNECTIONS: OUTPUTS- USING THE SCREW TERMINAL CONNECTIONS GENERAL- The screw terminal output connections are protected by a hinged plastic cover . T o make connections to the screw terminals, you will need to swing the cover door open. Gently pry the cover with your finger tips on the side that has the wire openings. After the door is open, loosen[...]

CONNECTIONS: OUTPUTS- DIRECT LOW IMPEDANCE (LO-Z) BRIDGE MODE PRECAUTIONS: Do Not Use 2 ohm Loads in Bridge Mono Mode! 4 ohms is the minimum impedance for bridge mono operation! This mode puts a high demand on the amplifier and speaker . Excessive clipping may cause protective muting or speaker damage. Ensure the speaker has a sufficient power rati[...]

CONNECTIONS: OUTPUTS- DISTRIBUTED HIGH IMPEDANCE (HI-Z) , STEREO & P ARALLEL[...]

CONNECTIONS: OUTPUTS- DISTRIBUTED HIGH IMPEDANCE (HI-Z) , BRIDGE MODE OUTPUT TERMINAL SAFETY WARNING! Do not touch output terminals while amplifier power is on. Make all connections with amplifier turned off. Risk of hazardous energy![...]

CONNECTIONS: POWER SHARING BETWEEN HIGH & LOW IMPEDANCE OUTPUTS The ISA 300T , ISA 500T and ISA 800T models are equipped with autotransformer-coupled, high impedance (High-Z) outputs. They are also equipped with low impedance (Low- Z) “ direct ” outputs. The high impedance outputs are not isolated. The unique feature of the “ T ” model [...]

CONNECTIONS: SECURING OUTPUT WIRING TO CHASSIS[...]

OPERA TION: AC POWER SWITCH, LED INDICA TORS, GAIN CONTROLS NORMAL OPERA TING LEVELS The amplifier ’ s protective muting system guards against excessive internal temperatures. With normal ventilation and 4 to 8 ohm loads, the amplifier will handle any signal level, including overdrive. Lower load impedances and higher signal levels produce more i[...]

APPLICA TIONS: GENERAL APPLICA TION INFORMA TION The ISA 280, ISA 450 and ISA 750 amplifiers are optimized for directly driving low impedance loads. Low impedance (Lo-Z) loads are those loads between 2 and 16 ohms. These models are not suitable for driving “ constant voltage ” 70V lines. These low impedance models are referred to collectively a[...]

APPLICA TIONS: LOW FREQUENCY FIL TERING & DISTRIBUTED OUTPUTS The low frequency filtering is another difference in the characteristics of the “ non-T ” and the “ T ” amplifiers. Because transformers and other magnetic devices are prone to low frequency “ misbehavior ” (called saturation) , the autotransformer equipped “ T ” mode[...]

100 V olt, two-zone example: The illustration to the right shows a typical two-zone 100 volt system. When using 100 volt speaker loads, make sure that connec- tions to the amplifier are made to the 100 volt output terminals. If using the ISA 300T , 300 watts per channel (zone) can be delivered. Make sure that the total speaker power load on each ch[...]

32 The DSP-3 Digital Signal Processing Module provides compressor -limiter , multiple parametric filters, high- and low-pass filters, shelf filters, multiple delays, polarity reversal, muting and attenuation. These features and more come packed into a small module that interfaces with the DataPort V2 connector on the rear of your ISA amplifier . No[...]

• INDICA TION: CLIP LED FLASHING • If the red clip indicator flashes when signal is applied, the amplifier output may be shorted. Check that the speaker cable connec- tions are tight and reliable at both ends. Check the speaker cables for stray strands or breaks in the insulation. T rim off all loose strands of wire and insulate any exposed wir[...]
