When the protection systems are reducing the level, this is indicated by illuminating the left-­‐hand
Amplifier channel protection indicator. This will also illuminate when the output voltage is ‘clipping’.
This indicator will remain permanently illuminated if the channel has been muted by the protection
systems. The Mute button will also flash. This will usually also be indicated by a warning message on
the display.
Some types of protection affect all output channels, so you may see the Amplifier indicator
illuminated, and the Mute button flash, on every channel.
Incident Reporting
In the PodWare application, a coloured indicator appears on a Device Bar in the System View which
displays the Incident state of the device. The Incident state may be one of three states:
•
Red: Fault (The device is faulty in some way and requires attention)
•
Yellow: Check (The device may not be performing to its full and should be checked)
•
Green: OK (The device is performing well and requires no attention)
Holding your mouse over the Incident indicator for a few seconds will show the current incident
level and name.
If an incident is reported you can disable it, and all less serious incidents, by right clicking the bar in
System View and selecting ‘Enable/Disable Alarms’. Doing this will show a cross over the Incident
indicator and the device will no longer report any Incidents at this level or below.
If any Incidents have previously been disabled they can be enabled by using the right click context
menu and selecting ‘Enable/Disable Alarms’ again.
Any active incident will be shown on the display of the device.
A Fault state will also cause the Fault Relay to open. See
Fault Relay
Fault Relay
Three connections are available via the Phoenix connector for this relay. The schematic
representation printed on the rear panel shows the ‘idle’ state of the relay (when the amplifier is not
switched on). When the amplifier is switched on, the relay will normally energise. When a Fault
incident occurs, the relay will be de-­‐energised. This will allow either a Fault Incident or a loss of
power to be seen as a ‘Fault’.

Performance Logging
The PodWare application allows you to inspect various performance measurements, including
various graphs of performance against time, recording events over a period of up to three days.
Since the amplifier cannot record any events while powered-­‐off, breaks in a log due to power-­‐downs
are indicated by a break symbol || in the log.
The events recorded are:
Supply Current -­‐ How much current is being supplied to the device via the mains inlet
DC Link Voltage – A voltage which is derived from the mains supply voltage
