H. MAC Address

 

This specific amplifier’s network identifier that is burned into its 
firmware.

I. Preset Indicator 

LED flashes to signal the number of the current preset if active. 

LED is green if the preset values have not been changed once 

loaded. LED is yellow if the preset values have been changed 

since they were loaded. 

J. Reset Button

 

To restore factory default settings: Press the Reset Button with a 

thin, non-conductive object, then turn on amplifier power, and 

continue to hold the reset button  until the Preset light comes 

on green (approximately 16 seconds)..

K. Data Indicator 

Flashes yellow only when the amplifier is polled for data, or is 
polled to see whether it is online. 

DIgITAL INPUTS SECTION
L. AES/EBU Digital Input 

This 3-pin female XLR connector accepts a dig ital signal in the 

AES/EBU format.

3 Operation

Figure 3.1 Front Panel Controls and Indicators 

3.4  Front Panel Controls and Indicators

Many of these functions can be disabled using 

Blackout Mode (a selection in the Advanced 

Menu, Section 4.2.3).
A. Cooling Vents 

Front-to-rear forced airflow through foam dust filter

B. LCD Control Screen 

Integrated LCD with white backlight, controls 

ampli fier setup and operation. 

         The LCD Control Screen and its controls let the user 

adjust the amplifier’s attenuation and muting, 

con figure the amp, set up and view error monitoring 

(such as temperature and load supervision), and 

recall DSP presets. The presets allow the user to 

quickly reconfigure the amp for various applica tions.

C.  Power Switch 

Push-on/push-off switch glows green when AC 

power is present at the power cord and the amplifier 

circuit breaker is in the “on” position. 

D.   USB 2.0 Connector

 

Accepts a USB drive to transfer presets from the 

drive to the amplifier DSP, and vice versa. 

E.  Fault Indicator 

Red LED, one per channel, flashes when the 

ampli fier output channel has stopped operating. 

Usually this means that the amplifier must be 

serviced.

F.  Thermal Indicator 

Red LED, one per channel, illuminates when the 

channel has shut down due to thermal stress or 

overload.

g.  Clip Indicator 

Red LED, one per channel, illuminates when the 

channel’s output signal reaches the onset of audible 

clipping. The Clip Indicator also will illuminate 

dur ing Thermal Level Control (TLC) limiting. The 

Clip Indicator can be turned of during Blackout 

mode.

H. Level Controls (Encoders) 

Speed-sensitive, 0.5 dB steps, range 0 to –100 dB. 

These two knobs affect the Channel-1 and 

Channel-2 output levels. They also select Menu 

items and adjust parameter values that are displayed 

on the LCD control screen. 

I. Menu/Exit Button 

“Menu” enters the main menu. “Exit” leaves the 

menu.

J.  Prev Button 

Selects the previous item in the menu.

K. Next

 

Button 

 Selects the next item in the menu.

L. Signal Indicators

These can be disabled during Blackout mode. Three 

green LEDS per channel indicate the ampli fier’s input 

and output signal levels. From top to bot tom the 

LEDs are 

–10 dB

: amplifier output is 10 dB below clipping. 

 –20 dB:

 amplifier output is 20 dB below clipping. 

 

Signal:

 selected input signal is above –40 dBu.

M. Ready Indicator 

Green LED, one per channel, illuminates when the 

channel is initialized and ready to produce audio 

out put. Indicator is off when the channel is set to 

standby mode via System Architect or in Blackout 

mode.

N.  Power Indicator 

Blue LED indicates amplifier has been turned on and 

AC power is available. The LED will flash when the AC 

line voltage is 15% above or below the nominal rated 

range. This indicator can be turned off in Blackout 

mode.

O.  Data Indicator 

Yellow LED indicates network data activity. Data 

indicator flashes only when the amplifier is polled for 

data, or is polled to see whether it is online. This 

indicator can be turned off in Blackout mode.

P  Bridge Mode Indicator 

Yellow LED illuminates when the amplifier is set to 

Bridge-Mono mode.

3 Operation

Figure 3.2  Back Panel Controls and Connectors

3.5 Back Panel Controls, Indica tors 

and Connectors 

A. Fans 

Provide front-to-back forced airflow for cooling. 

ANALOg INPUTS SECTION
B. Balanced Analog XLR Inputs 

A 3-pin female XLR connector for each channel. 

C. Balanced Analog XLR Loop-Through 

    Outputs 

Two 3-pin male XLR output connectors are pro vided 

(one per channel). The signal at these connectors is 

paralleled with the input signal for feeding the input 

signal to other amplifiers.

OUTPUTS SECTION
D. 4-Pole Speakon

®

 Output Connectors 

Two high-current, 50A Neutrik

®

 Speakon

®

 NL4MLP 

(mates with NL4FC and NL4), one per channel. 

Class 2 output wiring required.

These two connectors accept 2-pole or 4-pole 

Speakon

®

 connectors. See Figures 2.5 through 

2.10 and Tables 1, 2 and 3 for connector wiring. 

The top Speakon

®

 connector is wired for both 

channels so it can be used for bridge-mono 

wiring or for stereo wiring of two speakers to a 

single Speakon

®

 connector. 

E. Binding Post Output Jacks 

One pair per channel of high-current, 60A color-

coded binding posts. Accepts banana plugs, 

wire or spade lugs. 

F. Power Cord Connector 

Standard 20 amp IEC inlet. Voltage range is 
indicated above IEC inlet.

g. Reset Switch/Circuit Breake

If the current draw of the amplifier exceeds safe 
limits, this breaker automatically disconnects 
the power supply from the AC mains. The switch 
resets the circuit breaker.

M

 

AES/EBU Digital Loop-through Output 

Male XLR active/re-clocked AES/EBU digital loop-through. 

The signal at this connector duplicates the digital input 

signal for feeding the input signal to other amplifiers.
It is not recommended to loop through more than four 

amplifiers. If larger distribution of AES is needed, the use of 

an AES distribution ampli fier is recommended.

NETWORKINg SECTION
N. Link/Act Indicator 

Shows net work activity.The LINK ACT LED illuminates when 

the network port is connected and flashes when network 

activity is detected. 

O. Network Connector 

This EtherCon

®

 Ethernet connector is for networking. 

Warning:

 Only connect to networks that remain inside the 

building.

P. Cond Indicator

 

Turns on if the amplifier is set to be the CobraNet conductor. 

The CobraNet conductor is a CobraNet node that provides 

the master timing clock for the CobraNet digital audio 

transport network.
