Front Panel Controls and Indicators
Bridge Mode Indicator: Yellow LED, one per chan- nel pair, illuminates when the channel pair’s Mode Switch is set to the “Bridge” position. If Mode switch is changed while amplifier is powered up, Bridge LED will flash, indicating that the amplifier must be powered off and on to reset the Mode.
Ready Indicator: Green LED, one per channel, illu- minates when the channel is initialized and ready to produce audio output.
Signal Indicator: Green LED, one per channel, illu- minates to indicate the presence of input signals above
Clip Indicator: Red LED, one per channel, illumi- nates when the THD of the channel’s output signal rises to a level typically considered as the onset of audible clipping. The Clip Indicator also will illuminate during Thermal Level Control (TLC) or input overload.
Thermal Indicator: Red LED, one per channel, flashes when a state of thermal stress or overload has caused the channel to shut down. If the power supply goes into thermal overload, all channel LEDs will flash.
Fault Indicator: Red LED, one per channel, flashes when a fault condition has occurred in the channel.
Ventilation Grille: Front-to-rear forced airflow.
Data Indicator: Yellow LED indicates IQ Loop data activity (if the amplifier is equipped with an
Power Indicator: Blue LED indicates amplifier has been turned on and AC power is available. Indica- tor also flashes if the amplifier shuts off due to an
Power Switch: Amplifier is on when the switch is in the IN position.

Protection Systems
Thermal Level Control (TLC): If an amplifier chan- nel starts to overheat, the TLC circuit will engage that channel’s input compressor. By compress- ing the input, the amplifier will not generate as
CTs Series Multi-channel
much heat and will have a chance to cool down. The degree of compression is proportional to the amount of overheating. If the channel becomes too hot for safe operation even after full TLC limiting, the channel will shut off, and the Thermal Indicator for that channel will flash brightly to alert the user that a state of thermal stress or overload has cause the channel to shut down.
FIT (Fault Isolation Topology): Isolates faults within affected channels.
Fault: If an amplifier channel requires service, the corresponding Fault indicator will illuminate to alert the user of this condition. If this occurs, return the amplifier to the Crown factory or to an authorized Crown service center.
