APPENDIX—PROGRAMMABLE FEATURES

The following listing are ESP®-2 features that can be programmed or accessed by your installer to customize or troubleshoot your system. Factory default settings are shown in bold.

NOTE: The Bitwriter® must have software version 2.7 or above to access the amplifier features menu.

NOTE: A setting marked “Reserved” is for future development. Some settings are read-only, i.e. they cannot be changed, only viewed. If changed, the bitwriter will fail verification of the parameters upon write and indicate an error.

Turn On Delay - 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0 seconds. Delays the amplifier turn-on when the head or source unit is turned on. This eliminates any annoying pops or noise during power up from the head or source unit from feeding through to the speakers.

ESP®-2 Status Indicator LED	Mode
Off	Amplifier Off
5 short flashes, pause, then repeats	Unit powering up
Solid Illumination	Normal Operation
1 long flash, pause, then repeats	Overvoltage
1 short flash, pause, then repeats	Undervoltage
2 short flashes, pause, then repeats	Overcurrent
3 short flashes, pause, then repeats	Thermal protection
4 short flashes, pause, then repeats	DC offset

Input Gain Range (Volts) - The position of the gain switch determines the gain range available. If the gain switch is in the high mode, the ranges are Default (0.2 - 4V), 0.2-1V, 1-1.5V,1.5 - 3.5V, 3.5-4V. If the gain switch is in the low mode, the ranges are Default (0.4 - 8V), 0.4 - 2V, 2 -3V, 3V - 7V, 7-8V.

NOTE: If the Input Gain Adjustment is set to Lock (see below), the Input Gain Range adjustment will not be altered until the Input Gain Adjustment is set to Unlock.

Input Gain Adjustment - Unlock, Lock. When set to “Lock”, the input gain adjustment is disabled. This can be set to lock after the amplifier has been installed and set up to prevent accidental or unwarranted adjustment.

NOTE: Use caution when adjusting or unlocking gain as restricting the range or unlocking the range can result in sudden increases in gain. We recommend turning down the source to avoid damage to speakers or your hearing.

Event 1 through 7 - Stores up to seven recent events that have occurred to aid in diagnostic troubleshooting. The events that are retained are: Undervoltage, Overvoltage, Reserved, No Fault, Thermal, Overcurrent. These events are read-only, the amplifier will not allow them to change, even if they are changed on the bitwriter, they can- not be written to the amplifier by the installer. Event 1 is the most recent event, then Event 2, and so on. If event memory is full (Event 7 has a stored diagnostic message), then if another event occurs the 7th event will be pushed out of memory.

NOTE: While the Bitwriter® can be used to read the amplifier during
