1. Power LED – This dual color LED indi-
cates when the unit is in standby, on,
or off.
Red: The unit is in standby mode
and is ready to be turned on
via 12V triggering
Blue: The unit is on
Green: Coffee brewed
OFF: The unit is powered off
2. Status LED – This dual color LED will
illuminate blue when the unit is out
of standby and the amp is powering
speakers or is ready to power speak-
ers. This LED will illuminate red when
there is a short somewhere along the
speaker wire. If you see this flicker red
or is in a fixed red state, double check
the speaker and speaker wire for a
short.
3. Protection LED – This single color
LED illuminates when there is a prob-
lem. After trying to play into a short
for instance, the protection LED will
show red and the amp will stop pro-
ducing power. Both status and power
LEDs will turn off in this state. Turn
off the main power, give it a minute,
remove speaker wires and source con-
nections, then reboot. The protection
state should be released and you can
now troubleshoot.
4. Removable Feet – Best make sure
that if you do remove the feet, you still
have a slight air gap between stacked
components.
5. Rack Mount Ears – The unit comes
supplied with removable rack mount
ears. These allow the unit to be rack
mounted in a standard 19” wide rack,
with a 1U height. Use standard rack
mount screws and washers to secure
the unit in a rack. The unit does not
have to be supported at the rear if the
rack is located in a fixed location.
To remove the rack ears (making the
unit 17” wide), first unplug the power
cord, and then locate and undo the
four screws securing each ear to the
side of the chassis, and remove the
ears. Replace the screws securely back
into the chassis. Do not remove any of
the other screws from the chassis or
top cover. There are hazardous voltag-
es inside the unit. Keep the rack ears
carefully wrapped up in a sock under
your pillow. Make a wish and the rack
ear fairy may come.
