INTRODUCTION The aero 20A is a 2-way powered line array system which incorporates connectivity for remote monitoring and control. The unique configuration of the aero 20A Advanced Line Array System (ALASTM) incorporates a 12” transducer in a bass-reflex configuration for low-end and mid range reproduction. High frequency reproduction relies on one D.A.S. M-75N compression driver attached to a new BPS-1912 waveguide. Features - Advanced Line Array System (ALASTM). Powered two-way configuration.

AMPLIFIER Description 1) INPUT : XLR-type input signal connector. This is balanced connector just like the LOOP THRU connector with the following pin assignments: 1 =GND (ground). 2 =(+) Non inverted input. 3 =(-) Inverted input. 2) LOOP THRU : XLR-type output connector for connecting several units together and sending them all the same signal. 3) IN : Neutrik etherCon input connector for DASnetTM. 4) OUT : Neutrik etherCon output connector for DASnetTM, for connect more cabinets.
ON / OFF A sound system should be switched on sequentially. Switch on the self-powered units last in your sound system (switch on the subwoofer before the mid-high system). Switch on the sound sources such as CD players or turntables, then the mixer, then the processors, and finally the selfpowered unit. If you have several units, it is recommended that you switch them on sequentially one at a time.
Troubleshooting PROBLEM CAUSE SOLUTION No sound from the unit. The SIGNAL LED does not light up. 1 – The signal source is sending no signal. 2 – Defective cable. 1 – Check that the mixer or sound source is sending signal to the UNIT. 2 – Check that the cable from the sound source to the UNIT is connected correctly. Replace the cable if defective. Full power cannot be obtained. The LIMIT LED never lights up. 1 - The signal source does not have a hot enough output.
CHANGE OF CONFIGURATION (reset) The unit allows to change some default factory settings using the controls in the amplifier´s panel. The firmware which is described here is the 1.20 version. However, gain and delay only can be changed with DASnetTM. To re-establish the default factory settings (Number of units/Throw/gain/delay...) without using DASnet the system has to be switched ON while pressing the Throw button.
RIGGING SYSTEM Warning Due to the numerous images needed to explain the aero 20A array system setup, this manual can´t offer all the necessary information to rig the DAS Audio system. In this document only we reflect the safety precautions and a summary of the elements. To log in to the complete information, please consult Rigging Manual, which you will find on the web page. To perform any operations related to flying the system, read the present document first and act on the warnings and advice given.
Accessories Consult the Rigging Manual for more information about the accessories.
APPENDIX I: Line connections: unbalanced and balanced There are two basic ways to transport an audio signal with microphone or line level: Unbalanced line: Utilising a two conductor cable, it transports the signal as the voltage between them. Electromagnetic interference can get added to the signal as undesired noise. Connectors that carry unbalanced signals have two pins, such as RCA (Phono) and ¼” (6.35mm, often referred to as jack) mono.
APPENDIX II : DASnet cables With each system, cabling and patch panels are provided. It is very important to use the system with the intended cables to prevent electromagnetic interferences between the analog audio signal, the DASnet data and the power. Be sure to check the specifications provided by the cable manufacturer.
