          1.Product: CPS1 - Power Amplifier as manufactured by Bosch Security Systems. 5-way protection system with comparator circuitry which constantly monitors the input and output signals and activates the internal limiters whenever a non-linear operational state is encountered. This provides reliable protection of the connected loudspeaker systems against overload and clipping. Protection system provides on-board protection against thermal and capacitive overload, short-circuit and the occurrence of HF or DC at the output. Circuitry prevents the output-stage transistors from being damaged by Back-EMF. During soft start, delayed switching of the power outputs is accomplished via relays and a limiter controls the initial current inrush, preventing the mains fuse from being blown during the power-on operation. The electronically balanced inputs are provided via XLR-type and Phoenix connectors which are also used to loop the signal through. Using the Input Routing-switches allows the amplifiers to be operated in stereo or monaural mode; "monobridged" operation is also possible. The dB-scaled level controls are to be found on the rear panel. These potentiometers guarantee precise and reliable operation. In normal operation all CPS power amplifiers can be used to drive loads down to 2 ohms; in bridged mode the minimal load is 4 ohms. All amps are equipped with extremely silent running fans providing front-to-rear air circulation, guaranteeing trouble-free operation even in smaller power amplifier rack systems.

          a.The DPP4004 PA power supply rack-unit is designed to provide the supply voltage of 24 V DC (up to 4 amp capacity) for any ProAnnounce system. The power supply provides all the functions that modern PA systems require, including: automatic and gapless switching between primary and battery supply as well as remote ON/OFF-functions. During normal operation, the primary output is connected to the internal switch-mode power supply. In case of temporary power-loss, power-failure, or malfunctioning of the switch-mode power supply, this output is switched to battery supply almost instantaneously, providing uninterrupted power supply for all connected devices. When the mains supply is restored, the unit automatically returns with a delay of 600 ms to mains operation.
          b.Product: DPP4012High Capacity Rack Mount Power Supply (12 amp capacity).
          c.Product: DPP4002 Line Cord Power Supply (2 amp capacity).
 
          L.Central System Expansion Units
          1.All ProAnnounce series paging stations employ integrated microprocessors to control their internal functions and data communication with the central unit. The integrated watchdog circuit guarantees the complete monitoring of the stations health, for truly fail-safe operation. Additional options are available for any paging station model including lockout key switches and input transformers.

          3.DCS400 Digital control system expansion chassis as manufactured by Bosch Security Systems.
          a.The ProAnnounce digital control system expands the capability of the ProAnnounce system. By adding one or more DCS control cards to a ProAnnounce system you can expand the number of additional paging zones, add digital or analog controls, enable remote switching and monitoring and many other functions. Several types of expansion modules are available to control relays, zone switches, signal lines, system control functions, audio levels etc. Several modules can be cascaded together to provide nearly limitless system configurations. All DCS control cards are available either as standalone cards or as an "R" series version for mounting in the DCS400 expansion chassis.
          ** NOTE TO SPECIFIER ** The DCS400 is the main chassis for the DCS "R" series system modules. The unit is 2 RU in height and can accept up to 10 DCS-R type modules. The DCS expansion system provides dozens of expansion options to a ProAnnounce™ system. Delete card not required.
          b.Expansion Card DCS401 (DCS401R) Master DCS Control Module.
          c.Expansion Card DCS408 (DCS408R) Control Relay Module - 70/100v Audio Signals.
          d.Expansion Card DCS409 (DCS409R) Control Relay Module - Line Level Audio Signals.
          e.Expansion Card DCS412 (DCS412R) Logic Input Module.
          f.Expansion Card DCS416 (DCS416R) Analog I/O Interface Module.
          4.Product: DCS420 - Monitor Station with Speaker as manufactured by Bosch Security Systems. Designed for monitoring power amplifier outputs and for pre-listening to audio signal sources in ProAnnounce installations. The SOURCE-key lets the user select up to 250 different monitor sources while the VOLUME-key allows setting loudspeaker or headphone volume level in 10 steps. MUTE switches the speaker or phones signal ON or OFF. The sequence of monitor signal switching can be preprogrammed in the ProAnnounce designer software. (The DCS420 requires a DCS401R or DCS401 Controller Interface card).
 
          M.Amplifiers:
          1.Product: ProAnnounce DPA4411 - 4 x 100w 4 Channel Power Amplifier as manufactured by Bosch Security Systems. Provides 4 x 100 watts output power. The simultaneous operation of 70 V and 4 ohms speaker systems is possible through its intelligent output design. This topology allows for several configurations of the four power output channels. Either 4 x 100 W, 1 x 200 W and 2 x 100 W or 2 x 200 W configurations are available. Provides extensive system control and monitor functions which support level control, a variety of fault monitors, and signal routing. The four electronically balanced inputs are provided as XLR-type connectors (0 dBu). Also provided are routing switches, allowing input coupling. Remote-starting the power amplifier is possible when it is operated on mains supply or on 24 VDC emergency power supply.
