The AUTO STBY function operation is the following:
AUTO STBY button
JUMPER MJ102
Operation
On
Factory defaults position Energy Star autostby
On
User position
Amplifier autostby
Off
Factory defaults position Disabled

User position
Disabled
The jumper, is in the FACTORY DEFAULTS position by default (see chapter
Configuration diagram), so when activating the AUTO STBY button, the ENERGY STAR
AUTO STBY will be enabled. If you want to change the position of the jumper (user
position), check the configuration diagram and contact qualified personnel.
5.5. Limiter circuit
This system is an always active protection inside the GPA2-400ES of amplifiers. The
ANTICLIP circuitry constantly analyses harmonic distortion caused by excessive signal
excursion at the power amplifier's output and automatically reduces the input level in
order never to exceed 5% total harmonic distortion.
The great convenience of such a circuit in any kind of installation has to be remarked:
The clear advantage of a limiting system in front of conventional compressors is that the
former does practically not alter the dynamic range, acting only when the distortion
threshold is reached.
5.6. Output connections
The output section on the rear panel features both Speakon® connectors and Euroblock
connectors.
In STEREO mode, each channel takes the signal from its corresponding input (OUTPUT
CH1 from INPUT CH1 and OUTPUT CH2 from INPUT CH2). In MONO/BRIDGE mode,
the signal is taken from INPUT CH1 only.
If you need to operate the amplifier in BRIDGED mode, you should place the
“ST/MONO” switch in MONO position. The input signal connection is performed using
the channel 1 connector and the speaker output using the "CH1" Speakon
terminals
1+ and 2- and/or BRIDGE labelled terminals on the Euroblock output connector.
