Für jeden Kanal gibt es eine Signal-LED- Anzeige. Diese LED leuchtet auf, wenn das

am Verstärkerkanal ankommende Eingangssignal verstärkt wird.

5. LED „Clip“.

Für jeden Kanal gibt es eine ACL-LED- Anzeige („Clip“). Diese LED leuchtet auf, wenn der Clipping-Punkt erreicht wurde und zeigt an, daß der ACL Clip Limiter (Active Clip Limiting, dt.: Aktiv Clipping- Begrenzung) aktiv ist.

6. LED „Active“.

Die grüne LED „Active“ zeigt an, daß der Verstärker eingeschaltet ist.

7. LED „Protect“.

Diese LED leuchtet auf, wenn sich einer der beiden Kanäle im Schutzmodus („Protect“) befindet.

8.Wechselstrom- Netzschalter /Unterbrecher.

Auf der Frontblende der Multiplex -Verstärker befindet sich ein kombinierter Wechselstrom- Netzschalter/Unterbrecher. Sollte sich dieser Schalter während des normalen Betriebs selbst- tätig ausstellen, versuchen Sie, ihn auf „ON“ zurückzustellen. Springt er wieder in die „OFF“- Position zurück, muß der Verstärker repariert wer- den. Sicherungen kommen nicht zum Einsatz.

4. LED de señal.

Cada canal tiene un LED de señal. Este LED se enciende cuando se amplifica la señal de entrada que llega al canal del amplificador.

5. LEDs de limitación.

Cada canal tiene un LED de limitación. Este LED se enciende en el punto de limitación e indica que esta activada la Limitación Activa.

6. LED de actividad.

El LED de actividad verde indica que el amplificador esta encendido.

Un ventilateur de 110 CFM fixé derrière la grille d’admission de ventilateur aspire l’air de refroidissement dans l’amplificateur. Ne bloquez pas cette admission!

4. Signal DEL.

Chaque chaîne a un signal DEL. Cette DEL s’allume lorsque le signal d’entrée qui entre dans la chaîne de l’amplificateur est amplifié.

5. DEL d’écrêtage d’impulsions.

Chaque chaîne en possède une. Cette DEL s’allume au point d’écrêtage d’impulsions et indique que l’Ecrêteur d’Impulsions Actif (ACL) est engagé.

6. DEL active.

La DEL active verte indique que l’amplifica- teur est en marche.

7. DEL de protection.

Si l’une des chaînes est en mode Protection, cette DEL s’allumera.

8.Interrupteur de courant CA/Disjoncteur.

Les amplificateurs de la Série Multiplex ont un interrupteur de courant CA/disjoncteur sur le panneau avant.
