CHAPTER 2 | FEATURES AND DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
• Superior Performance
– Utilizes proven audio amplification technology to
deliver premium sonic performance.
• Easy Expansion
– 16 channels available for all kinds of zoning
configurations in large or far reaching the properties.
• Power & More Power
– 100 watts per channel at 4 ohms / 200 watts at 8
ohms bridged.
• Compact Design
– At just 1RU high, the CP-16i leaves room to install
more components in the rack.
•
Ultra-Efficient
– Cool Power
®
Class D amplifier technology ensures
efficient heat dissipation and low power consumption.
NOTES:
•
Note that the CP-16i requires an external preamp for volume control.
•
The CP-16i also supports a Bridge Mode (BTL) configuration. Bridge Mode
converts one stereo pair into a single, stronger amplification channel. If
all Zones are bridged, there are 8 channels available. Stereo and Bridged
Zones can be mixed as necessary.
Front Panel Components (LEDs)
The front panel features three LEDs.
POWER LED (Green/Red)
The Power LED indicates that the current power state of the amp:
•
Green indicates that the amplifier is On.
•
Red indicates that the amplifier is receiving power, but is in Standby mode.
OC/CLIP LED (Yellow/Red)
The OC/CLIP LED indicates that either the current of one or more of the speaker
outputs has exceeded its maximum or that the power supply is overloaded.
NOTE:
The amplifier outputs are limited to 20A peak each in order to protect
the power stages against overload during a short circuit, or over-current event
on the output of the amplifier.
•
Yellow indicates an OC (over-current) shutdown of the amplifier output.
In the case of an OC event, the amplifier will shut down to protect itself,
and indicate an OC event on this LED (yellow) and the OC pin (pin 8 on
the 10-pin I/O port - see page 15). An OC event can indicate a cable fault,
installation fault or defective speaker.
