Introduction

Terms

This section explains terminology speciﬁc to the TXn.

■ Amp Editor

This is computer application software. This software allows you to monitor and control the TXn ampliﬁers from your com-

puter.

■ Scene

Settings such as power-on/standby or mute for each ampliﬁer are called a “scene.” By recalling a scene, the saved settings

can be immediately applied to the ampliﬁers. Each TXn unit has 50 scenes.

■ Signal Path

This is the audio signal processing functionality provided by the internal DSP. Components organized into modules accord-

ing to their functionality are placed in the signal path.

■ Component

These are modules in the signal path that organize audio signal processing according to their functionality.

■ Library

The settings of all Speaker Processor components can be saved together in a library. A library can be saved only from Amp

Editor, but can be recalled from the unit’s front panel as well.

■ Device ID

This is an ID for uniquely identifying a TXn unit within a network. In order to allow monitoring and control from Amp Edi-

tor, you must specify non-conﬂicting IDs within a workspace.

t [PROTECTION] indicator

When the protection system is active, this indicator will light red. The protection circuit will operate in the following situa-

tions.

• If the ampliﬁer overheats and the output limiter operates

The speaker output will be attenuated if the heat sink of the ampliﬁer section exceeds 80°C (80%), and will be muted if

the heat sink exceeds 90°C (90%). The [PROTECTION] indicator will light at 80°C (80%) or higher.

• If the power supply overheats and shuts-down

The fan will rotate at high speed if the power supply section exceeds 90°C, and the analog circuits will shut down if it

exceeds 100°C. The [PROTECTION] indicator will light only if shut-down occurs.

• The thermal meter in the METER screen and in Amp Editor indicates the heat sink temperature of the amp section.

The temperature of the power supply section is not shown.

• If the load falls below 0.5 ohms

If a short occurs and the load falls below 0.5 ohms, the speaker output will be muted, and muting will be cleared approx-

imately 1 second later.

• If DC output is detected

The speaker output will be muted, and the power supply section will shut down.

• If the power supply malfunctions

The speaker output will be muted.

• If ultra-high frequencies, overcurrent, excessive total current, or maximum current is detected

The speaker output will be compressed.

y [BRIDGE] indicator

This will light green if the ampliﬁer mode is set to Bridge.

u [PARALLEL] indicator

This will light orange if the ampliﬁer mode is set to Parallel.

i [MUTE] indicator

This indicator will light red if muting is turned on by the [MUTE] button or from Amp Editor. When the power is turned on,

the output signal will also be muted and the indicator will blink red until audio begins being output.

•Even if mute is off, this indicator will blink if Solo was turned on from Amp Editor, or when the output has been muted by

the protection circuit.

o [MUTE] button

By holding down the [MUTE] button for one second or longer, you can turn muting on/off for that channel. When muting

turns on, the [MUTE] indicator will light. By holding down the [MUTE] button when the Solo function is turned on from

Amp Editor, Solo will be defeated.

!0 [ALERT] indicator

This will light to indicate an alert related to the ampliﬁer’s audio signal. If an alert for a speciﬁc channel has occurred, the

indicator of the corresponding channel will light; for other alerts, the indicators of both channels will light. At this time, the

alert message will appear in the upper part of the display.

!1 [CLIP] indicator

When the signal of the speaker output’s power amp section exceeds the clipping level, this indicator will light and the output

signal will be compressed.

!2 [SIGNAL] indicator

This will light green when the level of the signal being output from the [SPEAKERS] jack exceeds 1 Vrms (equivalent to

0.2 W into an 8 ohms load, 0.4 W into a 4 ohms load or 0.8 W into a 2 ohms load).

NOTE

TX6n/5n/4n Reference Manual

Controls and Connectors

!3 Encoders A, B

When the display shows the attenuation meter, these encoders adjust the attenuation of channels A and B. If any other

screen is displayed, encoder A moves the cursor and encoder B modiﬁes the parameter value.

• Only encoder A can be operated if you’re adjusting the attenuation when the ampliﬁer mode is Bridge.

!4 Display

This shows the ampliﬁer’s settings or a level meter. Refer to “Screen Structure” (page 13) for details.

• If the power supply is in Standby mode or if the LCD Setup’s Backlight setting is Auto OFF, the backlight will go dark if no

panel operation has been performed for ten seconds. It will light again when a panel operation is performed.

!5 Function buttons

These buttons move to the screen indicated above each button in the display. If a channel name (e.g., CH A, CH B) is

shown, this means that a parameter for that channel is displayed; press the corresponding function button to switch the

channel that is shown. These buttons may also operate in different ways depending on the screen shown in the display.

!6 [HOME] button

This accesses the HOME screen (page 15) in the display.

By holding down this button for three seconds or longer, you can switch the power between Standby and On modes. When

the conﬁrmation message appears, press the [ENTER] button to switch the setting.

!7 [EXIT] button

By pressing this button when the display shows a screen other than the HOME screen, you can move to the screen of the

next highest level.

•To temporarily disable panel lock, simultaneously hold down the [HOME] button and [EXIT] button for three seconds or

longer.

• If you hold down this button for three seconds or longer in the HOME screen, the FAULT OUTPUT connector output will

be reset (NC and C will be connected).

!8 [ENTER] button

Use this to select a parameter or to ﬁnalize an edited parameter value. Depending on the screen shown in the display, this

button may also be used in other ways. If the parameter value is blinking, you must ﬁnalize the value by pressing this but-

ton.

• If you hold down this button for one second or longer in the HOME screen, the UTILITY screen Device Setup page (page

19) will appear.

!9 Air intakes

The ampliﬁer uses forced-air cooling. The variable speed cooling fan draws air in from the front and exhausts it through the

rear. The cooling fan speed varies depending on the heat sink temperature: It operates at low speed when it is below 40 °C

(40%), increases in speed according to increases in temperature, and operates at high speed when temperature exceeds 60

°C (60%). If the power supply exceeds 90°C, the variable speed fan will operate at high speed regardless of the heat sink

temperature.

Please be sure that you do not block the air intakes or exhaust vents. Also, clean the ﬁlter elements regularly. If the air

intakes are clogged with dust or debris, the ampliﬁer will overheat, which may result in the ampliﬁer shutting down.

@0 Screw holes for handles

These four screw holes (four locations) are for the included handles. Fix the handles to the ampliﬁer, using the included ﬂat-

head screws.

NOTE

TX6n/5n/4n Reference Manual

Controls and Connectors

@1 [SPEAKERS] jacks

These are speaker output jacks.

• Speakon connectors : Speakon type cable plugs (Neutrik NL4) can be connected here.

• Five-way binding post connectors : Bare wires or Y plugs can be connected here.

• The ﬁve-way binding post connectors and Speakon connectors are internally connected in parallel. If you’re using both

simultaneously, make sure that the speaker impedance of each connector is 4–16 ohms (8–32 ohms in Bridge mode).

@2 Digital input/output connectors (I/O card slot)

An AES-IO card is installed as standard, allowing AES/EBU digital audio signals to be input and output.

• [IN] connector : This is an XLR-3-31 type balanced input connector for inputting two-channel digital audio sig-

nals.

• [OUT] connector : This is an XLR-3-32 type balanced output connector for outputting two-channel audio signals

processed by the internal DSP.

• [THRU] connector : This is an XLR-3-32 type balanced output connector that outputs the unprocessed signal received

at the [IN] connector. Even if the power is turned off, this connector will output the input signal

without any change (page 44). However, internal settings will be switched when the power is

switched on/off, causing the output signal to be muted for an instant.

• If desired, you can remove the AES-IO card and install a separately sold MY card. For details on the types of MY card

that can be used and how to install them, refer to “Optional I/O cards” (page 9).

• The removed AES-IO card cannot be installed and used in other devices.

•You must use a 110 ohm digital cable to make AES/EBU connections.

@3 Analog input/output connectors

These connectors input and output analog audio signals.

• [IN] connector : These are XLR-3-31 type input connectors for inputting ana-

log audio signals. The pin polarity is shown at right (IEC

60268).

• In Parallel mode and Bridge mode, only the signal of

channel A is output from the speaker output connector

by default. The channel B signal is not sent from the

speaker output, but the audio signal processed by the

internal DSP can be output from the digital output con-

nector.

• [THRU] connector : This is an XLR-3-32 type balanced output connector

that outputs the unprocessed analog signal received from

the [IN] connector.

TX6n/5n/4n Reference Manual

Controls and Connectors

@4 [NETWORK] connector

This is a 100BASE-TX/10BASE-T Ethernet connector. You can connect this to a computer so that the ampliﬁer can be mon-

itored and controlled from Amp Editor. This also allows an external controller such as AMX or Crestron to be connected.

•To prevent electromagnetic interference, use an STP (Shielded Twisted Pair) cable for the [NETWORK] connector.

@5 [FAULT OUTPUT] connectors

This is a 3P Euroblock connector for controlling an external analog device when an abnormality occurs in the CPU or trig-

gered by the occurrence of a Fault event speciﬁed in Amp Editor. NC and C will be connected when the ampliﬁer is operat-

ing normally; NO and C will be connected when a problem occurs (page 51). You can also reset this output from Amp

Editor.

A message will appear in the screen if a problem occurs. To reset the output, hold down the [EXIT] button for three seconds

or longer in the HOME screen.

@6 Power cable

Connect the plug of the power cable to an AC outlet of the correct voltage.

@7 Grounding screw

The AC power cord is a 3-wire type. If the AC outlet used is earthed (grounded), this device will be properly earthed as well.

Also, grounding the screw sometimes reduces hum and interference noise.

■ Supported I/O cards

You can remove the AES-IO card from the TXn’s rear panel, and install a separately sold MY (mini-YGDAI) card. As of Sep-

tember 2009, the following MY cards are supported. For the latest information, refer to the Yamaha pro audio website.

● Parameters that can be edited

The parameters that can be edited will depend on the meter type.

* The setting range will differ depending on the meter type.

Parameter Range Explanation

Detect Enable ON/OFF Speciﬁes whether alert detection will be enabled or disabled. An alert

message will be displayed if a point exceeding the speciﬁed value (Alert

Min/Max TH) is detected for the speciﬁed number of times (Detect

Count) within the speciﬁed duration (Detect Time). Detection is in 2 ms

intervals.

Alert Min TH * Speciﬁes the lower threshold value for the alert.

Alert Max TH * Speciﬁes the upper threshold value for the alert.

Detect Time 1–10s Speciﬁes the time during which points exceeding the threshold value will

be counted.

Detect Count 1–100 Speciﬁes the number of times that a point exceeding the threshold value

must be counted in order to trigger an alert.

Peak Hold ON/OFF Turns peak hold on/off.

Unit * Speciﬁes the display unit for the meter.

● Setting procedure

1. In the HOME screen, press the second-from-left function button (UTILITY) to access the UTILITY screen.

2. Use the function buttons (PREV/NEXT) to access the screen for the sub-category whose settings you want to

change.

3. Use encoder A to move the cursor to the parameter that you want to edit, and encoder B to edit the parameter

value.

4. If the parameter value is blinking, press the [ENTER] button to conﬁrm the value.

Non-blinking parameter values are reﬂected by the ampliﬁer in real time.

■ Device Setup

■ Word Clock Setup

Here you can select the master word clock that will synchronize digital audio signal processing.

q Fs

Indicates the current word clock frequency.

w Int

The status of the internal word clock. There are four possibilities: 44.1 kHz / 48 kHz / 88.2 kHz / 96 kHz. The default setting

is 96 kHz.

e Slot

The word clock status of the card inserted in the slot. Normally, the reference word clock signal is transmitted from a single

device, and the other devices will receive and synchronize to this word clock signal.

• If a card with a built-in SRC (sampling rate converter) is installed, select the master word clock from other than the chan-

nels with the SRC enabled.

r Auto Scan Mode

This speciﬁes whether the master clock will be switched automatically when a valid word clock is no longer being input to

the port that’s assigned as the master clock, or when a port of the slot is found to have a valid word clock being input while

the internal word clock is selected.

If this setting is ON, the master clock will automatically be switched according to the following order of priority.

1. The selected port of the slot

2. The internal word clock

•For some types of installed I/O card (e.g., for an AD card), Auto Scan Mode will not operate even if this setting is ON.

Refer to “Supported I/O cards” (page 9) to check if your I/O card supports Auto Scan Mode.

• If two TXn ampliﬁers are bi-directionally connected via a digital I/O card (e.g., separately sold AES/EBU cards connected

via the D-sub 25 pin connectors), and if Auto Scan Mode is ON for both units, the word clock will loop, and will no longer

lock. In this case, turn Auto Scan Mode OFF for one of the TXn ampliﬁers.

● Setting procedure

1. Use encoder A to move the cursor to the port (Int or Slot) that you want to assign as the master clock.

2. Press the [ENTER] button to switch the master clock.

A word clock is being input, and can be selected as the master clock.

A valid word clock is not being input (and cannot be selected as the master clock).

A word clock is being input, but is not synchronized with the master clock.

Selected as the master clock.

Selected as the master clock, but a valid clock is not being input.

An invalid channel of the slot, an analog I/O card is installed, or no card is installed.
