Power -
The Power switch applies power to the amplifier. The Power
switch is also part of the protection circuitry of the amplifier. If the
amplifier is overloaded it will automatically shut down to protect the
circuitry from damage. If this occurs turn the power switch off, turn
the master volume down, wait 15 seconds, then turn the Power switch
on. The amplifier should return to normal operation. If the amplifier
continues to shut down automatically contact your nearest Factor
Electronics dealer or service center.
OL LED -
The OL LED is the overload warning light. When the OL LED
flashes occasionally it is indicating occasional peaks in the output
signal. If the OL LED lights solidly the amplifier is being overdriven.
Immediately reduce the input levels and the Master volume control
until the OL LED is not illuminated. Occasional flashing is normal.
MP3 Input -
The Mp3 input is a stereo 3.5mm 1/8” jack that will
accept signals from practically any device with a headphone output
jack. Mp3 players, iPods, portable phones, computers, receivers etc. If
a source is connected to the rear panel Aux Input jacks the Mp3 input
will automatically override that source when a connector is inserted.
The Mp3 jack is a quick way to connect to the amplifier without
needing access to the back panel.
USB-
The USB jack is a USB charging port that keeps your hand held devices
batteries charged. The USB charging port is active when the main power switch
is ON. The USB charging port is not active when the main power switch is OFF.
The USB charging port cannot accept audio signals from hand held devices. This
USB port is strictly for battery charging. Note: the USB port can be used with
i Pod docks.
