Cerwin-Vega CV-5000 user manual Front Panel Controls

FRONT PANEL CONTROLS

1. Rack Mounting Ears

Two front panel mounting holes are provided on each mounting ear.

2. Fan Vent

CV-5000 amplifier is cooled by two rear-mounted fans. Cool air flows through the front fan filters, reducing the temperature of the inside components while forcing the heat out the rear vents. Never block these vents and keep them clean at all time.

3. AC Power Switch

This switch controls the unit’s main power.

4. Signal Indicators

These green and yellow LED will illuminate to indicate that a signal is present at the amplifier input, and that the signal is being amplified.

5. Clip Indicators

These red LED will illuminate at the clipping threshold. If it lights frequently, you could be overloading the amplifier and a distorted signal is possibly being output. Under heavy clipping activity, lower the channel gain controls to reduce the risk of damage to your speakers and amplifier.

6. Active Indicators

These blue LEDs indicate that AC power is connected and the amplifier is turned on.
