Operation - Halcro Eclipse mono Owner's Manual

Operation

All or some of the input sockets may have active
sources simultaneously connected to them. The
selector switch selects the input to be amplified.
Once the external cables are connected to the unit
(see the preceding section Setup) we are ready to
connect the amplifier to mains power.
o Ensure the master ON/OFF switch is in the
OFF position.
The master ON/OFF switch (p13, fig C, ②) is
on the base of the lower compartment, near
the mains socket on the unit (p13, fig C, ①).
You will have to kneel on the floor at the back
of the unit to access the switch
o Plug the mains plug into a mains outlet
o Switch the master ON/OFF switch to ON
The red LEDs on the front and rear of the
amplifier will glow. This indicates the unit is in
standby mode. In this mode a small current is
drawn from the mains supply, but the unit will
not drive the loudspeakers
o Press the mode switch once to switch
between STANDBY and ON modes (p12, fig A,
①).
The mode switch is a small pressure switch
accessed when standing at the front of the
unit. It is centrally located under the bottom
lip of the top compartment
When the amplifier has been switched to ON, the
blue LEDs on the front and rear will glow.
The amplifier is now ready to drive your
loudspeakers.
It is recommended that the unit be switched to
STANDBY when not in use.
It is recommended to turn the mains power off when
not using the Eclipse mono amplifiers for extended
periods. However the amplifier may be left on in the
standby mode for periods between active use. If you
wish to turn the mains power off, the amplifier has a
minimal warm up period.
