BOULDERLINK MESSAGES

Each component in the system can send a message to the 865 which is then shown on its display. This is particularly helpful in confirming the operating status of each power amplifier in a multiple amplifier system.

“AMPLIFIER 1 ERROR” means that an internal power supply has failed and the amplifier has turned itself off to protect the speakers from damage.

“AMPLIFIER 1 HAS DC” means that it has turned itself off due to a DC offset voltage being detected at its inputs.

“AMPLIFIER 1 IS HOT” means that is has turned itself off due to a higher than normal temperature condition on the heatsinks.

“AMPLIFIER CLIP” means that the amplifier’s output has momentarily reached its output voltage limitation.
