Front Panel
1 POWER BUTTON
Pressing this latching
power
button connects the amplifier to the AC mains,
charges the power supply (which takes about five seconds), and places it in
standby. Having a true standby function keeps the sensitive voltage gain
stages warmed up and sounding their best at all times. Power consumption
when in standby is less than 125 watts.
Note that if the amplifier has been disconnected from the AC mains power
by depressing the front panel
power
button or by unplugging it from the
AC outlet, it cannot respond to a remote turn-on command from a control
unit. If you wish the amplifier to turn on and off via the Proceed communi-
cations bus (or by a DC trigger), the amplifier needs to be in standby, with
this
power
button engaged.
2 STANDBY BUTTON
Assuming that the power is on and the unit is in standby (see 1, above),
pressing the
standby
button engages the output stage of the amplifier, tak-
ing it from
standby
to fully
on
. Pressing the
standby
button again will
toggle the amplifier back to standby. Power consumption when fully on and
at idle is less than 200 watts.
At your option, you may also toggle the amplifier between
standby
mode
and fully
on
by connecting a suitable 5-12V DC trigger such as can be pro-
vided by the Proceed PDSD or AVP to its
remote trigger input
.
