Important safety instructions

Intended use of the device

Intended use of the AC 3 includes:

• having read and understood this instruction manual especi-

ally the chapter “Important safety instructions” on page 2,

The AC 3 active transmitter combiner

The AC 3 active transmitter

combiner

With the AC 3 4-to-1 active transmitter combiner, the signals of

up to four SR 300 IEM G3 type transmitters can be combined

onto a single antenna.

The integral active RF amplifiers ensure that the input signals

are combined onto the common antenna output with no distri-

bution attenuation.

The AC 3-US version is a special design approved for the U.S./

Canada and is intended as a combiner for he SR 300 IEM G3 A1.

The AC 3 incorporates DC distribution to enable simultaneous

powering of up to four transmitters via its BNC sockets. A single

NT 3-1 table top power supply (see “Accessories” on page 15)

is required to power the AC 3 and the connected transmitters.

Using the GA 3 rack adapter (see “Accessories” on page 15),

one AC 3 and one stationary SR 300 IEM G3 type transmitter

can be mounted into a 19” rack.

Alternatively, you can stack the AC 3. For stacking the AC 3,

mount the optional stacking elements (see “Accessories” on

page 15).

The AC 3 is suitable for the following areas of application:

• Multi-channel monitoring systems for stage use

• Multi-channel systems suitable for any application where

talk-back signals are to be transmitted (e.g. studio)

Delivery includes

1 AC 3 or AC 3-US active transmitter combiner

1 set of device feet

4BNCcables

1 instruction manual

You additionally require the NT 3-1 table top power supply with

a suitable mains connector (see “Accessories” on page 15).

Putting the AC 3 into operation

Preparing the AC 3 for use

Setting up the AC 3 on a flat surface

왘Place the AC 3 on a flat, horizontal surface.

Fastening the

stacking elements

To fasten the stacking elements 쐎:

왘Unscrew and remove the two recessed head screws (M4x8)

on each side of the AC 3.

왘Secure the stacking elements 쐎to the sides of the AC 3

using the previously removed recessed head screws (see

diagram).

The stacking elements (see “Accessories” on page 15)

are designed to help protect the operating elements

from damage or deformation, e.g. if the AC 3 is

dropped.

왘Fasten the stacking elements even if you do not

want to stack your AC 3.

왘Do not fasten the stacking elements when mounting

the AC 3 into a 19” rack (see page 9).

Putting the AC 3 into operation

Stacking

several devices

You can stack several AC 3 and the connected transmitters on

top of each other.

왘Stack the devices so that the recesses of the stacking

elements completely engage with each other.

Fitting the

device feet

The device feet are fitted to the base of the AC 3 (see diagram).

왘Clean the base of the AC 3 where you want to fix the device

feet.

왘Fix the device feet to the base of the AC 3 by peeling off the

backing paper and fitting them as shown on the left.

왘Place the AC 3 on a flat, horizontal surface.

CAUTION! Danger of injury due to toppling stacks!

High stacks can easily topple over.

왘Place the stack on an absolutely flat surface.

왘Secure the stack against toppling over.

If you want to stack the AC 3, only fit the device feet to

the base of the lowermost device.

Do not fit the device feet when mounting the AC 3 into

a 19” rack.

Please note that the device feet can leave stains on deli-

cate surfaces!

Putting the AC 3 into operation

Mounting the AC 3 into a 19” rack

Rack mounting

one AC 3

왘Secure the rack mount “ears” 쐅(supplied with the optional

GA 3 rack adapter) to the AC 3 in the same way as described

for the stacking elements (see page 7).

왘Secure the blanking plate 쐈to one of the rack mount

“ears” 쐅using two recessed head screws (M 6x10)

(see diagram on page 10).

왘Insert the two blanking plugs 쐉into the holes of the blan-

king plate (see diagram on page 10).

CAUTION! Risks when rack mounting the device!

When installing the device in a closed or multi-rack assembly,

please consider that, during operation, the ambient tempera-

ture, the mechanical loading and the electrical potentials will be

different from those of devices which are not mounted into a

rack.

왘The ambient temperature within the rack must not exceed

the temperature limit specified in the specifications.

왘Ensure sufficient ventilation; if necessary, provide additional

ventilation.

왘Make sure that the mechanical loading of the rack is even.

왘When connecting to the power supply, observe the informa-

tion indicated on the NT 3-1 table top power supply. Avoid

circuit overloading. If necessary, provide overcurrent protec-

tion.

왘When rack mounting, please note that intrinsically harmless

leakage currents of the individual power supplies may accu-

mulate, thereby exceeding the allowable limit value. As a

remedy, ground the rack via an additional ground connec-

tion.
