2. CONNECTIONS AND OPERATION 2.1 INPUT CONNECTIONS Balanced XLR connection offers the highest transmission quality, particularly over long cable lengths, because it rejects noise and hum pickup. If using the XLR input, set the input switch to the 0 dB position if your preamplifier’s XLR outputs are at normal line level, or to the -6 dB position if your preamplifier’s XLR outputs are at 2x line level.

2. CONNECTIONS AND OPERATION continued) 2.3 ON MODES With the three-way switch located on the rear panel, you can set the way the amplifier is turned on and off. To use Trigger-On, connect a standard 3.5mm (.125”) mono mini plug cable between the amplifier and the preamplifier or control component. Once all other connections are made, connect the power cord to the amplifier and then the wall outlet.

3. LED INDICATION CODES Power LED: This is on when the amplifier is operating normally and off at all other times. Status LED: Normal brightness indicates operate mode. If the M1 detects a problem, the amplifier output will turn off for 12 seconds* and the LED will flash a number of times, pause for 2 seconds, and repeat the flash cycle to allow the user to count the number of flashes per cycle before the power button is pressed twice.

3. LED INDICATION CODES continued) 4 flashes: Temperature exceeds limit. Make sure there is adequate ventilation. The amp will resume operation only once internal temperature drops within acceptable range (4 degrees Celsius less than fault). 6 flashes: Average input current exceeds limit. This fault is activated to avoid nuisance AC input interruption. This condition can occur if two or more speakers are connected in parallel.
