2.6 Amplifier Front Panel
The Amplifier Front Panel contains four sets of power buttons and status LEDs, one for
each amplifier module. (See Figure 14.) They have the following functions.
Fields
Description
Power Button If enabled by software, turns off power to its amplifier module when pressed
and held for three seconds. Another press for half a second, restores the
power.
Normal
Indicates current status of the Amplifier card in the respective slot. Status
indications include the following:
• Steady Green, indicates that the module is working, and all the
parameters of the latest test are normal.
• Blinking, indicates that the module has power, but one or more
parameters are out of the normal range, although the audio output is
still present at a reduced or distorted level.
• Steady Off, while one or more other lights are on, indicates that the
module has power, but is not capable of producing an output audio
signal at this time.
Selected
Steady Blue, indicates that the audio power output relay is activated and
the 100 V audio output is connected to the output header.
Control
Comms
Blinking Blue, indicates that the module is communicating with the
Controller.
Stand By
Steady Yellow, indicates that the speakers connected to this Amplifier card
have been rerouted to a standby audio output cable, receiving audio output
power from a Standby Amplifier module.
Overload
Yellow, indicates that current in the output stage of the module is
temporarily in a higher than normal level and the current limiter is being
brought into use.
