The Solution:

1. Amplifiers

2. Control Interface

3. Automatic Amplifier Switch

Bittner XR amplifiers with integrated DSP allow for an accurate adjustment of the

settings for the relevant public address areas at loads down to 2 ohms (level, EQ,

delay, dynamics)

Bittner SXL II Control Interface:

monitoring and control of up to 16 channels

permanent line and amplifier monitoring according to EN-60849

permanent evaluation of control signals

control of the AX16 amplifier switch incl. the transfer of DSP settings

integrated webserver allows configuration and storage of different setups as

well as readout of the logfile

Bittner AX16 Intelligent Amplifier Switch:

noiseless switching of the inputs and outputs of a defective amplifier incl.

automatic transfer of DSP settings and level to a backup unit

14 signal channels and 2 backup channels with three different switching

modes (7+1, 3+1 or 1+1)

time controlled pilot tone via SXL II (e. g. every 90 sec)

the amplifiers monitor their output lines synchronically to the pilot tone

monitoring of input signals

reporting of measuring results from the amplifier to the SXL II via the data bus

display of the data in the SXL web interface, the SXL front panel and in the SXL

log file

activation of a relais contact in case of a malfunction (SXL relays 1 to 8 user

configurable)
