Power Supply

 Faults are flagged when a power supply is activated.  During a 

Power Supply

Fault

, the corresponding PS1 or PS2 LED’s will blink at a slower rate.  If both power 

supplies experience a fault, both PS1 and PS2 LED’s will alternately blink.  If only one of 
the two PS LED’s is blinking, then this indicates a Power Supply Fault

.  While the 

corresponding PS LED is blinking, the Mute LED’s will indicate which fault triggered as 

noted below: 

CH1 Mute LED: PS1 Voltage Fault

CH2 Mute LED: PS1 Bias Voltage Fault

CH3 Mute LED: PS1 Breaker Tripped

CH4 Mute LED: PS1 DC Fault

CH5 Mute LED: PS2 Voltage Fault

CH6 Mute LED: PS2 Bias Voltage Fault

CH7 Mute LED: PS2 Breaker Tripped

CH8 Mute LED: PS2 DC Fault

Please note: When only one of the two PS LED’s is blinking, a 

Power Supply Fault

occurred on that supply.  When both PS LED’s are alterna

tely blinking, a 

Power Supply

Fault

 occurred on both supplies.  When both PS1 and PS2 LED’s are blinking 

simultaneously, a Device Fault occurred. 

Channel Faults

 are flagged when a channel is Active.  During a 

Channel Fault

, the 

corresponding channels Fault LED will light, the channel will shutdown and not pass audio. 

The channel will try to recover from the fault and activate automatically.  The following 

items are recognized as Channel Faults: 

Over Current Fault

Full limiter attenuation
