1. Power LED (Top of unit) – This Blue LED illuminates when the unit is turned on.
2. Thermal LED (Top of unit) – This Red LED illuminates if the amplifier internal components become
too hot and engage the thermal protection.The amplifier will shut down to cool
if this occurs.
3. Protect LED (Top of unit) – This Yellow LED illuminates if a short circuit or too low of an impedance
is detected at the speaker connections.The amplifier will automatically shut down if
this occurs.
4. Output Display (Top of unit) – These LEDs simulate VU meters to display the real-time output of
the amplifier from - 00 (infinity) to +2dB. During normal operation the indicator should not reach
+2dB, as this indicates clipping.
5. Batt (Battery) Display (Top of unit) – These LEDs simulate VU meters to display the real-time
input voltage to the amplifier from 9 to 16 volts DC.
6. Cast Aluminum Heatsink – The cast aluminum heatsink of the Power amplifier dissipates heat
generated by the amplifier's circuitry.
7. Speaker Terminals – The heavy duty, nickel-plated wire connectors (+ and -) will accept wire sizes from
8 AWG to 16 AWG.
8. Remote Punch EQ (Optional Controller) – The Remote Punch EQ connection is made with a RJ-45
cable and can be installed in a variety of ways for easy control access.The control is used to boost low
and/or high frequency information to overcome road noise.The remote overrides the Punch EQ on the
amplifier when connected.
NOTE:
Previous (prior to 2007) Punch Bass and Para-Punch remotes will not work with these amplifiers.
9. bd Sync Connection – These amplifiers have a 6 pin mini DIN connector.When operating two
amplifiers together in a bridged mode, a bd Sync cable must be used.This will allow the two
independent frequency carrier generators in each unit to be synchronized.
10. Punch EQ – This control is a narrow band adjustment variable from 0dB to +18dB @ 45Hz with a
Gyrator based Punch EQ that eliminates frequency shift with boost.
