Mackie PA-TX60 Quick Start Guide - Page 1

Strip the speaker wiring back about 1/2", loosen the screw enough to loop the wire around the shaft of the screw (clockwise), and tighten down the screw with a slot-head screwdriver. Note: Make sure the taps on the speakers add up to no more than the rated power for the amplifier being used. Connecting the PATX60 to a Constant-Voltage Distribution System In a constant-voltage distribution system, all the speakers are connected in parallel. This makes it easy to add or remove speakers from the system without having to recalculate the impedance of the load on the amplifier. Simply add the taps on the speakers connected to the system and make sure the total power indicated by the taps does not exceed the rated power of the amplifier. 70V CONSTANT-VOLTAGE POWER AMPLIFIER + - 70V LINE PATX 60 VISION SERIES 70V 100V 15W 30W 60W COM 30W 60W NC COM 70V 100V CONCEIVED, DESIGNED, AND MANUFACTURED BY MACKIE INDUSTRIAL • MADE IN ITALY • COPYRIGHT ©2000 • THE FOLLOWING ARE TRADEMARKS/REGISTERED TRADEMARKS OF MACKIE DESIGN INC.: "MACKIE", "MACKIE INDUSTRIAL", & THE "RUNNING MAN" FIGURE SERIAL NUMBER MANUFACTURING DATE CAUTION: SUSPENDING THIS SYSTEM SHOULD BE DONE BY QUALIFIED TECHNICIANS FOLLOWING APPROPRIATE SAFETY STANDARDS 70V CONSTANT-VOLTAGE DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM PATX 60 VISION SERIES 70V 100V 15W 30W 60W COM 30W 60W NC COM 70V 100V CONCEIVED, DESIGNED, AND MANUFACTURED BY MACKIE INDUSTRIAL • MADE IN ITALY • COPYRIGHT ©2000 • THE FOLLOWING ARE TRADEMARKS/REGISTERED TRADEMARKS OF MACKIE DESIGN INC.: "MACKIE", "MACKIE INDUSTRIAL", & THE "RUNNING MAN" FIGURE SERIAL NUMBER MANUFACTURING DATE CAUTION: SUSPENDING THIS SYSTEM SHOULD BE DONE BY QUALIFIED TECHNICIANS FOLLOWING APPROPRIATE SAFETY STANDARDS www.mackieindustrial.com 16220 Wood-Red Road NE Woodinville, WA 98072 TEL +888.337.7404, FAX +425.487.4337 , [email protected] UK +44.1268.571.212, FAX +44.1268.570.809 [email protected] ITALY +39.0522.354.111, FAX +39.0522.926.208 [email protected] FRANCE +33.3.8546.9160, FAX +33.3.8546.9161 [email protected] GERMANY +49.2572.96042.0, FAX +49.2572.96042.10 [email protected] Part No. 910-003-20 Rev.
