G228 INSTRUCTIONS

 

SYMPTOM 

POSSIBLE CAUSE 

POSSIBLE SOLUTION(S) 

No Front Panel 
POWER ON In-
dication   

No AC power present.

 

Verify the unit is receiving AC power. 
Verify the AC outlet has proper AC voltage available. 

No Audio 
Output: 
  

No input signal source.  Verify that proper signal/level is being supplied. 

Incorrect input signal 
connection 

Verify that the signal input connection is correctly 
connected. 

Incorrect output con-
nections 

Check that the proper load is correctly connected to 
the desired output terminals. 

No Automatic 
Muting of 
Input Signal  

Mute Switch Rear 
Panel 

Check that the switch is in the correct position. 
(See page 6). 

Insufficient MIC/600 
ohm/Tel-Page gain 

Check MIC/TEL gain control setting. 
Check that MIC/TEL audio signal level is sufficient. 

Low, High, or 
Distorted Level:      

Volume setting  

Check the corresponding gain control on the front 
panel.

 

Signal level 

Check that adequate input signal level is strong 
enough. 

Input or output imped-
ance not matched 

Check that the proper input/output line impedance 
matches the selected input/output connections used. 

Possible low resistance 
or shorted wiring across 
the audio in and/or 
across the speaker out 

Check/correct system wiring.
