CONTROLS

LIMIT brief blinking indicates that the power amplifier is operated at its limits. Short-term blinking is uncritical, because the integrated limiter compensates minor distortion. Constant lighting of the LED indicates that the sound is negatively affected. Reducing the output volume is strongly recommended.

SIGNAL indicates the presence of an input signal.

THERMAL lights, when the power amp’s output power is reduced to prevent thermal overload.

PROTECTION lights, when one of the power amp’s comprehensive protections against e.g. thermal overload, HF or DC at the output, and Back-EMF has been activated. The speaker outputs are deactivated and the input gain is reduced when in Protect Mode, to protect the power amplifier from damage.

The PROTECT LED lights for approximately 2 seconds during power-on operation. This is normal, indicating that all protections are working.

POWER-switch

Mains switch for powering the appliance on or off. With the power amplifier being switched on, the mains switch is backlit. If, after switching the power on, the switch is not backlit, please first check whether the mains cord is correctly connected. In case the cord has been connected correctly and the switch still fails to light (no function), please contact your specialist dealer.

MAINS FUSE

Under normal circumstance the mains fuse only blows in case of failure. Always use an identical type with the same current, voltage and blow characteristics when replacing the mains fuse. If the mains fuse blows more often, please contact your specialist dealer.

MAINS IN

Mains connector is carried out as PowerCon-type socket. A fitting mains cord (5m) with PowerCon-type plug is supplied.

MAINS OUT

This PowerCon mains out socket allows the connection of additional MADRAS cabinets, e.g. M15 or M18, using special cords (PC150 or PC800).

To prevent mains n etwork overload, connecting more than three MADRAS cabinets to a single mains outlet (10A-16A) is not recommended.
