5. GAIN Control
This control matches the input level of your ALC-2 with the output level of your system.
6. CLIP Indicator
This LED indicates when the signal is at its maximum level before distortion occurs. When the input GAIN
adjustment is set correctly and the source unit is at its maximum volume this LED should flicker orange
intermittently.
7. POWER Indicator
This LED glows blue when the ALC-2 is powered on.
8. REM OUT/REM IN/BATT+/GND Power Terminal
These connections are for remote turn-on, input power and chassis ground. Use a minimum of 18-gauge
wire for the power (BATT+) and ground (GND) connections. The power (BATT+) should be fused with a
1-amp fuse.
