1.1 Safety suggestion
Regardless of how well electrical equipment is designed, personnel can be exposed to dangerous
electrical shock when protective covers are removed for maintenance or other activities.
Therefore, it is incumbent in the user to see that all safety regulations are consistently observed and that
each individual assigned to the equipment has a clear understanding of the first aid related to electrical
shocks (see next pages).
In addition these safety practices must be followed:
o Do not attempt to adjust unprotected circuit controls or to dress leads with power on.
o Always avoid placing parts of the body in series between ground and circuit points.
o To avoid burns, do not touch heavily loaded or overheated components without precautions.
o Remember that some semiconductor cases and solid-state circuits carry high voltages.
o Do not assume that all danger of electrical shock is removed when the power is off.
▪ Charged capacitors can retain dangerous voltages for a long time after power is turned off.
These capacitors should be discharged trough a suitable resistor before any circuit points are
touched.
o Don't take chances. Be fully trained.
▪ DB Elettronica equipment should be operated and maintained by fully qualified personnel.
o Do not service alone and do not perform internal adjustments of this unit unless another person
capable of rendering first aid and resuscitation is present.
o Some components used in the construction of this equipment contain Beryllium Oxide (BeO).
▪ This substance is harmless as it is, but becomes highly dangerous if it is ground to powder.
▪ Special procedures of disposal must be observed in case of failure of these devices.
NOTE: This section is not intended to contain a complete statement of all safety precautions which
should be observed by personnel in using this electronic equipment or others.
DB Elettronica shall not be responsible for injury or damage resulted from improper procedures or from
using it by improperly trained or inexperienced personnel.
If power cannot be turned off immediately, very carefully loop a length of dry non-conducting material
(such as a rope, insulating material, or clothing) around the victim and pull him free of the power.
Carefully avoid touching him or his clothing until free of power.
Step 1
Check the victim for unresponsiveness. If there is no response, immediately call for
medical assistance, and then return to the person.
Step 2
Position the person flat on their back. Kneel by their side and place one hand on the
forehead and the other under the chin. Tilt the head back and lift the chin until teeth
almost touch. Look and listen for breathing.
Step 3
If not breathing normally, pinch the nose and cover the mouth with yours. Give two
full breaths. The person's chest will rise if you are giving enough air.
Step 4
Put the fingertips of your hand on the Adam's apple, slide them into the groove next
to the windpipe. Feel for a pulse. If you can not feel a pulse or are unsure, move on to
the next step.
Step 5
Position your hands in the center of the chest between the nipples. Place one hand on
top of the other.
Step 6
Push down firmly two inches. Push on chest 15 times.
This ATTENTION tag is used for the majority of electronic devices that are sensitive
to electrostatic discharges.
If electronic parts have to be touched during installation or repair, please observe the following
precautions.
Operators must be equipped with anti-static protection devices such as:
Flexible cord. To be connected to the elastic wrist band and the special
plug on the shelf highlighted with the ESD warning label.

For all Mozart NEXT models, a user friendly front panel interface (display) offers a very easy method to
control the Mozart NEXT main parameters with a metering accuracy that helps the user to install the unit
and check its status even in case he doesn’t have expensive test equipment.
In case of fault of the unit or antenna system, the protection system lowers automatically the output
power (Foldback), in order to bring back the operating conditions to a safe area without causing a system
shut down, and it indicates on the front panel display the alarm message.
The protection system reduces or stops the output power in case of:
- V.S.W.R. too high.
- Heatsink temperature too high or cooling stop (OVER HEAT).
- Missing Enable command (in case of combination with external units like control logic units)
The switch-mode power supply is largely oversized and guarantees a regular operation even in the
presence of wide main voltage fluctuations.
The systems cooling grants a safe operation even in hard climatic conditions.

To have more information about the meaning of each led please refer to the paragraph Audio and
Control leds and Function leds.
Entering one of these menus the central window will change indicating the different parameters of the
unit. Each menu is described in the proper paragraph.
Here all the information regarding the audio levels are indicated:
1. Left and Right analog signals
2. Left and Right components of AES/EBU signal (available only if the option is installed)
3. Left and Right components of Audio over IP signal (available only if the option is installed)
4. MPX external analog signal
All the levels are showed in led bars and the value of each signal is indicated on the right in dBu (for L&R
analog and MPX external) or dBFS (for L&R AES/EBU and L&R AoIP).
Here it is possible to see all the information related to the configuration of the unit in terms of audio
signals (priority of the audio, enable of the audio autoswitch, configuration of the input connectors,
sensitivity, deviation, pilot, setting of active memory, etc). All the settings available in front panel menus
can be set also on this page.
On top of the page it is also possible to set the frequency and power of the unit.
NOTE: all the settings are available only if the unit is in REMOTE mode.
In this page it is possible to set the thresholds of intervention of alarms/warnings. In case an event is
verified an info will be saved in the history log and the warning or alarm led (depending on event type)
will be switched on.
The thresholds are divided into 3 main groups:
• Audio low thresholds (related to the audio low alarm for each audio input signal);
• Audio over thresholds (related to the audio over alarm for each audio input signal);
• RF Levels (alarms related to the forward or reflected power levels).
In the Amplifier page it is possible to set the amplifier output power in the POWER [W] field, and to
check all the functioning parameters including the eventual alarms related to the amplifier connected to
the Mozart NEXT exciter.
NOTE: this section is available only in case the Mozart NEXT is an exciter directly connected to a DB
amplifier via RS485 connection. If the Mozart NEXT is used as compact transmitter this page will show
no value.
In the Memories scheduling page it is possible to set a desired scheduling memories for one week with 4
different start times.
For each day it is possible to set up to 4 events choosing the memory that must be active from the start
time.
To have this feature active it is important:
1. To set the memories with the desired parameters
2. To enable the event (tick present in the ON flag on the left)
Press SAVE SCHEDULING button on the bottom after the setting of the configuration to save all the
modifications. Press RESET button to cancel all settings present in the page.
The remote monitoring interface includes an automatic e-mail notification: e-mails are sent to recipients
in case of alarm events or warnings in the modulator.
The notification e-mail indicates the main parameters of the unit (also present in the front panel menu)
and a summary of the history of the equipment (events log file).
The explanation of all the fields is indicated in the table here below:

other events
You can test the notification system using the button “TEST MAIL”: in this way a test e-mail will be sent
to the address set in the “Recipient Address 1” field.
The LOG Events page allows the visualization and the download of the unit history (the register of all the
events happened with date, hour and event code). If the login has been done it will be possible to
download the file pressing the DOWNLOAD TXT button, otherwise it is possible only to see it.
If the user is logged as administrator it is possible change all parameters related to the connection of the
unit to the network and the SNMP configuration.
The available parameters are:
1. SNMP configuration.
2. Network parameters: IP address, netmask and Gateway address.
3. Remote access credentials (Username and password for both administrator and guest users).
4. NTP configuration
5. Set the time and date for the internal clock.
6. Buttons necessary to reconfigure the webserver board and reset the frontal panel local access
password.
Press SAVE CONFIG button to save the settings, DISCARD ALL button to remove all the modifications.
With the RESET LOCAL PASSWORD button it is possible to reset the password present on the unit when
the user presses LOCAL button to pass from remote to local mode (password to prevent unauthorized
changes from local interface). This function is available from remote mode to allow the reset to factory
values in case the user forget the changed password. For more information about Local Password see

To save the transmitter configuration press BACKUP CONFIG. The file will be saved in your PC in .cfg
format.
In case it is necessary to upload a configuration in the transmitter, choose the desired file and press
RESTORE CONFIFG button.
To update the transmitter with a new firmware version it is sufficient to choose the new firmware file
(contact DB Elettronica for the file to upload) and press UPLOAD button.
NOTE: take care to make the upload always with the PC directly connected to the transmitter with
LAN cable and not through router. In case of sudden interruption of the LAN connection or switch off
of the unit before the upload is complete the unit could not start properly with the new firmware.
In this page the type of transmitter, the model and the actual firmware revision are indicated.
2) Remove the front panel grid and extract the foam filter inside.
3) Clean the air filter with compressed air (don’t use water) or substitute it if it appears damaged.
4) Remount the air filter in the original position.
5) Reinstall the frontal grid panel and secure it with the Allen screws.
In case of Mozart NEXT with output power higher than 1000W, the filter is present inside the front
panel: it is sufficient to remove the front panel unscrewing the 4 screws and clean the filter as described
above.

follow these indications:
DO’S
• Make sure the 50 Ohms load is well connected to the output of the transmitter before switching
on it
• Make sure the electrical connections are done accordingly with the electrical schematic and the
indications on the rear panel terminals
• Follow the maintenance schedule for a correct functioning of the unit.
DON’TS
• Don’t switch on the transmitter until the grounding connections have been properly made
• Don’t switch on the transmitter until the RF connections have been made
• Don’t start the transmitter if the cooling fans are blocked by any obstacle
• Don’t increase the output power of the transmitter if any alarm is present on the front panel of
the units
