Physically, the UF-3 is a small circuit card that mounts inside the amplifier. Older amplifier models that use Open Input Architecture have a two-
section row of 22 solder holes called a “Mini Slot” on their input boards. This is where the UF-3 is installed. The input board is part of the
removeable input module, so the UF-3 can be installed without opening the amplifier chassis or even without removing the amplifier from an
equipment rack.
TheUF-3performsthesamefunctionsastheolderUF-2accessorydoes,butonasmaller,morecompactcircuitboardthatcanfitinmoreamplifier
models, such as the PowerLight 3.4, 3.8X, or 4.0. To fit in these models, the circuit board has a pre-scored breakaway section.
Newer models such as the PowerLight, PLX, DCA and CX series require the installation of an appropriate BusCard in order to provide a slot for
the UF-3. Depending on the amplifier model, a BusCard can provide as many as four slots for accessory cards. Each slot is equivalent to the “Mini
Slot” of the older amplifiers’ Open Input Architecture. For ease of installation, it is best to mount the UF-3 to the BusCard before installing the
BusCard itself inside the amplifier.

II. FEATURES
The UF-3 allows independent filtering of the two audio channels. You can select high-pass, low-pass, or bandpass filtering, as well as the
frequencies of the filtering.
Either channel’s circuitry contains electronically balanced input circuitry and bypassable low-pass and high-pass circuitry. Each filter circuit has

Except for specialized bi-amp models such as the
PowerLight 1.5X, 1.6HVX, or 3.8X, the amplifier in which the
UF-3 is installed has a switch for setting the operating
mode of the amplifier, i.e., stereo, parallel mono, or
bridged mono. In the signal flow, the UF-3 accessory is
located after the switch, so you must configure both
channelsoftheUF-3accordingly, whatevertheoperating

To completely bypass the filtering circuitry of a channel, set the jumpers on both Jx01 and Jx02 across pins 1 and
2, which are the upper two pins on their headers (see Figure 3). Note: If you neglect to place jumpers on either
header, no signal will pass on that channel.

In addition to enabling the high-pass filter at Jx02, if you opt for CD horn equalization you must place a
jumper at Jx03 as well. The UF-3 offers two equalization curves for CD horn correction: one with +6 dB
of boost at 20 kHz (place the jumper across pins 1 and 2 of Jx03), and one with +10 dB of boost at 20 kHz
(place the jumper across pins 2 and 3). If you do not place a jumper in one position or the other, the CD
horn equalization circuit will be inactive.
The table below is a summary of jumper settings for the UF-3; similar information is printed on the
breakaway section of the UF-3’s circuit board. Figure 4 shows how to identify the SIP resistor values.

IV. TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
Subsonic Filter
Subsonic filters are commonly used in sound installations to filter out rumbles and other inaudible or unwanted low frequency signals and to
protect speaker drivers. Vented speaker enclosures in particular often exhibit a phenomenon in which the acoustical damping on the driver(s)
drops at extremely low frequencies below their own resonant frequency. In a situation like this, a
subsonic filter will help to prevent damage from over-excursion of the speaker cone.
Program settings:
Typ. 20–50 Hz
1. Set the jumper on Jx01 to bypass the low-pass filter (across pins 1 and 2).
Subsonic roll-off
2. Set the jumper on Jx02 to enable the high-pass filter (across pins 2 and 3).
3. No jumper on Jx03.
Figure 5—UF-3 as a subsonic filter
4. Insert a resistor network in RNx04 that is appropriate to the desired roll-off frequency—typically 20, 30, 40, or 50 Hz.

Ultrasonic Filter
An ultrasonic filter is useful for minimizing RF interference, oscillations, leakage or aliasing from digital devices, and other signals that are too
high in pitch to hear but may wreak havoc in an amplifier system.
Program settings:
Typ. 16–20 kHz
1. Set the jumper on Jx01 to enable the low-pass filter (across pins 2 and 3).
2. Set the jumper on Jx02 to bypass the high-pass filter (across pins 1 and 2).
Ultrasonic roll-off
3. Insert a resistor network in RNx02 that is appropriate to the desired roll-off frequency—
typically 16 or 20 kHz.

Program settings:
1. Set the jumper on Jx01 to enable the low-pass filter (across pins 2 and 3).
2. Set the jumper on Jx02 to enable the high-pass filter (across pins 2 and 3).
3. No jumper on Jx03.

5. InsertaresistornetworkinRNx02thatcorrespondstotheupperlimitofthedesiredfrequencypassband.Thisfrequencymustbehigher
than the one selected for the previous step.
CD Horn Equalization Filter
A constant-directivity horn requires a 6 dB per octave high-frequency boost from about 3.5 kHz to provide a flat frequency response. On the UF-3
you must use the CD horn equalization in conjunction with the high-pass filter.
Program settings:
1. Set the jumper on Jx01 to bypass the low-pass filter (across pins 1 and 2).
2. Set the jumper on Jx02 to enable the high-pass filter (across pins 2 and 3).
3. SetthejumperonJx03toselecttheEQcurveyoudesire:acrosspins1and2for+6dBat20kHz, oracrosspins2and3for+10dBat20 kHz.
4. Insert a resistor network in RNx04 that corresponds to the desired low-frequency roll-off.

Use settings 1, 2, and 4 from the Subsonic Filter, and setting 3 from the CD Horn Equalization Filter.
This would be suitable only if the loudspeaker system uses passive crossovers.

Multi-way Crossover System
The UF-3 allows you to set up 3- and even 4-way systems. Of course, this also requires that you use more than one amplifier and more than one
UF-3. The other basic requirement of using the UF-3 as a crossover is that you must feed each amplifier with the same full-range signal and use
the UF-3 to filter the signals in the individual channels.
Figure 9 depicts an example of a 4-way system. Because of the multitude of possible system configurations, the fundamentals of the technique

V. INSTALLATION
Installating the UF-3 requires PC board soldering skills, so only qualified service technicians should attempt it. Any authorized QSC service
center—or, for an additional installation fee, QSC Technical Services Group—can perform the installation.
The UF-3 installs on a BusCard, which mounts inside the amplifier. Make sure you have the right BusCard for the amplifier model.
The UF-3 also installs on the amplifier input PC board of any QSC EX, MXa, or legacy CX Series amplifier. Some older EX amplifiers may require
an upgrade to the current input board. Contact the QSC Technical Services Group for details on compatibility with older EX amplifiers.
When installed, the UF-3 settings and adjustments are not externally adjustable; this can prevent tampering by unauthorized users.

Tools and materials you will need:
Soldering iron
Desoldering iron or other suitable desoldering equipment
Phillips screwdriver
Wire cutters
Rosin-core solder
CAUTION:
•
•
•
Do not use desoldering braid because it may damage the solder pads on the BusCard or input board, and it also might not adequately
remove solder.
The UF-3 contains active components which can be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD). Be sure to practice standard ESD
precautions and always ground yourself and your workstation before handling exposed circuit cards.
Preparing the input board for installation of the UF-3 involves removing solder from feed-through holes on a two-sided circuit card.
Excessive heat can easily damage the solder pads you will be working on. Proper equipment and experience with desoldering delicate
PC board circuitry is essential to successfully perform the following procedure.
•
•
Please contact the QSC Technical Services Group if you feel you might not be qualified to perform the installation yourself.
One last warning: damage caused by an improper installation will void the warranty.
Installing the UF-3 on a BusCard
It is easier to configure and install the UF-3 Universal Filter with the BusCard removed from (or not yet installed in) the amplifier.
Turn off the amplifier and unplug it from the AC. Allow about 10 minutes or longer for the internal voltages to bleed down before you open the
amplifier chassis.
If the UF-3 is to be installed on a BSC-6 BusCard (for the PowerLight 3.4, 3.8X, or 4.0), snap off the breakaway section of the UF-3 circuit board
by flexing it at the pre-scored line.
Make sure you insert the UF-3 card on the correct side of the BusCard. Insert the UF-3 fully into the holes on the BusCard. Solder all 22 pins to
the BusCard; make sure you don’t create any solder bridges. Then install the BusCard in the amplifier; see the BusCard instructions for details.
Installing the UF-3 on an input card
Turn off the amplifier and unplug it from the AC. Allow about 10 minutes or longer for the internal voltages to bleed down before you open the
amplifier chassis. Disconnect all cables from the amplifier’s input panel.
Position the amplifier so the rear of the chassis is facing you. The input panel is located on the left side of the rear panel. See Figure 11.
Begin the installation by locating and removing the screws securing both the upper blank and lower input panels to the rear side of the chassis
(two screws on each mini panel). The upper blank panel will simply drop off when its screws are removed.
Gently pull the lower input panel out from the amplifier. Once it is removed, you will notice a ribbon cable connecting the input PC board to the
amplifier. Disengage the locking wing clamps on the ribbon header and carefully remove the ribbon head from the socket on the board. Now the
input panel assembly is completely free from the amplifier.
Next, desolder and remove the wire jumper pairs W305/W306 and W405/W406 (W303/W304 and W403/W404 on MXa Series amplifiers).
Under where the jumpers were are two rows of solder pad holes, one with 10 holes and another with 12. These make up the “Mini-Slot,” in which
the UF-3 mounts. See Figure 12.

Continue preparing the PC board by removing solder from all 22 in-line socket holes. Once this is done, you are ready to install the UF-3.
With the input panel facing you and the component side of the UF-3 board facing away from you, carefully insert the header pins of the UF-3 fully
into the socket holes. Turn the assembly over and solder the UF-3 in place. Make sure all the header pins are well soldered. Visually inspect for
coldsolderjointsandverifythatyouhavesufficientclearancetore-installtheribbonconnectoronthetopsideoftheassembly.Finishbytrimming
the UF-3 header pins as required.
Reconnect the ribbon cable to the input board connector. Press the locking clamp wings of the connector closed. You will feel them snap onto
place.
If you need to make any adjustments to the UF-3 settings or if you need to record them, do so now, because the UF-3 will be inaccessible once
the input panel is re-installed into the amplifier chassis.
Carefully reposition the input board/UF-3 assembly into the amplifier chassis and secure it by fastening the two mounting screws. Make sure
the screws are tightened snugly, but do not over-torque them. Re-install the upper blank panel.
Installation of the UF-3 is now complete, and the amplifier is ready to be reinstalled into the system.
