POWER (and power indicator light)
Switches the unit on and off. The light indicates the status of the amplifier.
When you switch your amplifier on, the light glows amber for a few seconds, during which time the speakers are disconnected. The light changes to green when the amplifier is ready for use. A red light means the amplifier is in standby mode.
The light may flash if a fault has occurred – the fault type is shown on the display. You should unplug the amplifier and leave it for a few minutes before reconnecting. If the fault cannot be cleared, unplug your amplifier and contact your Arcam dealer.
SP1 and SP2
These buttons allow you to select and deselect the main
(SP1) and secondary (SP2) sets of speakers attached to your amplifier. An indicator light shows which set of speakers are currently selected.
NOTE: If both lights are out the amplifier will appear not to work, as all speakers are switched off. If both are on, and low impedance speakers are connected, overloads are more likely.
