accurately on the Power Plant's meter. For
true power consumption figures consult the
owners manual of the connected product.
Under normal operation a green LED will
illuminate. A yellow LED will indicate a
heavy load and is not recommeded for
continous operation. A red LED indicates an
overload or fault mode.
Display Blanking
This mode allows discrete front panel
operation by blanking the display. The PS
logo will continue to illuminate in blue to
indicate that the unit is operational.
Notice of MultiWave II operation:
Any turntable or equipment with AC
synchronous motors, such as some cooling
fans should not be used with MultiWave
patterns. This type of equipment must be
used with 60Hz sin mode.
We recommend the use of the SineWave
[sin], or TubeWave™ [tub] with any type of
tube based audio products.
MultiWave II Waveforms
[sin] SineWave
In the sine wave mode the Power Plant will
generate a perfect sine wave (50-120Hz).
[tub] TubeWave
TubeWave is specifically designed to opti-
mize the performance of tube based audio
products.
TubeWave uses the same pseudorandom
generation of frequencies as MultiWave2
waveform, however it utilizes more “tube-
friendly” frequencies.
[P-1] MultiWave1
MultiWave1 is a single 60Hz sine wave
with a minute amount of 3rd Harmonic
sine waves mixed together to form a
single partial square MultiWave. This is an
improved version of PS2 from the original
MultiWave™ series.
The partial square wave setting improves
the power supply’s ability to charge the
capacitors in equipment by extending the
length of time available to "top off" the
capacitors' voltage. Use this setting to
enhance the performance of both source
and power equipment.
[P-2] MultiWave2
MultiWave2 is a 60Hz sine wave that
incorporates a pseudorandom collection
of frequencies which are dithered from 55-
65Hz.
Using this slightly random frequency
deviation is similar to adding dither on a
digital audio source. Power supply dithering
can lower the perceived noise floor and help
remove apparent glare on the audio signal.
[P-3] MultiWave3
MultiWave3 is a combination of P-1 with
a slight degree of 3rd harmonic addition
(P-1).
Try this setting and see how the audio
sounds and the video looks. All systems
can respond differently to each MultiWave
pattern.
