DELAY 1, 2, and 3 Indicators:
The DELAY 1, 2 and 3 indicators always show the
present state of the corresponding DELAY 1, 2 and
3 outlets. In all cases, if the indicator is ON, the out-
let is ON. If the indicator is OFF, the outlet is OFF.
Protection OK Indicator:
Although the Furman Merit Filter assures protection
from transient voltage spikes and surges, nature
can occasionally produce electrical forces that are
beyond the capabilities of any surge suppression
device to absorb without sustaining some degree of
damage. In the rare instance in which damage oc-
curs, the green “PROTECTION OK” LED indicator
located on your front panel will either dim or extin-
guish completely. If this happens the M-8S’ surge
protection has been compromised and the unit must
be returned to Furman Sound. Please contact Fur-
man Tech Support or your Furman Dealer.
Power Indicator:
The POWER indicator is illuminated any time power
is applied to the M-8S.
Thermal Circuit Breaker
Resettable 15 Amp circut breaker. If this breaker
“trips” please reduce the load.
Sequence On/Off Switch:
The front panel on/off switch sequentially powers on
and off the DELAY 1, 2 and 3 outlets. The front and
rear panel UNSWITCHED outlets are always on.
This on/off switch will operate in either MAINTAINED
or MOMENTARY mode.

Adjusting the Delay Interval
The delay interval, which is the time
between the turn-on / turn-off of con-
secutive DELAY outlets 1 and 2, or 2
and 3, is factory preset to approximately
5 seconds. It is possible to lengthen or
shorten the delay interval by changing
the position of the DLY-ADJ trim pot
located on the right side of rear panel.
The delay adjustment procedure is simple and re-
quires a small standard screwdriver. The DLY ADJ
(delay adjustment) is a trim pot that is located on the
rear of the M-8S above the legacy interface and to
the left of the DIP Switches. Locate the rectangular
slot in the center of the trim pot and use a screw-
driver to rotate the trim pot to set your desired delay.
The minimum delay (1/2 Second) is achieved when
the trim pot is adjusted fully counter-clockwise. The
maximum delay between stages (~10 Seconds) is
achieved when the pot is rotated fully clockwise.
