Front Panel
1 Standby button
The Standby button, situated near the top of the side panel, will
toggle the Omega Mono between its fully functional operate mode
and a standby mode that leaves the amplifier off yet ready to re-
spond to system commands via any of the supported control op-
tions (e.g. IR In, Trigger In, CAN Bus, or RS-232).

Ω Ω Ω Ω Ω
indicator
The amplifier state is indicated by the
Ω Ω Ω Ω Ω
indicator on the front
panel. This light, in the shape of the Greek letter
Ω,
indicates the
operating state during normal operation, as follows:
• dark = standby
• blue (slow blink) = initialization/mute
• blue (continuous) = operate
Various fault conditions are indicated as follows:
• red/blue = line voltage out of range
• red (slow blink) = protection mode (DC, current or temp.)
• red (fast blink) = internal communication error
Caution! If the
Ω Ω
Ω Ω
Ω
indicator is blinking red, please disconnect the
amplifier from the AC mains immediately and check that
all external connections are cleanly made and secure. If
no fault is immediately obvious, please call your
authorized Classé dealer for assistance.
When in standby , the amplifier’s gain stages are powered down.
Only a small power supply and control circuit remain on, consum-
ing relatively little power. Fortunately, since the output stages by
their nature conduct a great deal of current, they warm up and
sound their best very quickly.
If you are not going to use the amplifier for an extended period of
time, perhaps while traveling for a vacation, we suggest you discon-
nect it from the AC mains. Please be certain that the amplifier is in
standby prior to disconnecting it from the AC mains.
It is a good practice to disconnect any and all valuable electronics
from the AC mains during electrical storms, as a lightning strike
anywhere near your home can put a tremendous surge on the AC
mains that will easily jump across a simple power switch.
