Understanding the front LED status Red = Standby Blue = On Blinking Blue Over voltage AC limits attained. A message will be displayed on the front screen and unit will shut down. Under voltage AC limits attained. No change in operation of the unit. Protection modes and indicators The SSP-800/CT-SSP Surround Sound Processor contains protection features that prevent the processor from operating at dangerously high or low voltages.
Common Repair Scenarios Along with using this Service Manual for troubleshooting purposes, it is essential to consult our Service Notices. A complete set of notices will be available concerning current and past faults found on the CT/SSP-800. These are descriptive of the fault along with troubleshooting techniques and solutions. The following cases are described using keywords for the fault.

Keywords: On screen error codes X.0.0.0.0. Numerical Error codes such as 2.0.0.0.0 can be displayed when an initialization error has occurred. These errors may arise when taking the CT/SSP-800 out of standby or when powering up. The first number of the error code describes in which stage the error occurred.
Does not initialize (Standby LED flashing continuously) A CT/SSP-800 that does not initialize completely will continually flash its blue LED on the front panel. The significance of this is that the internal micro-controllers cannot execute the firmware properly. Probable causes for this are as follows; 1- Corrupted Firmware 2- Bad digital power supplies 3- Sensor board communication errors...
Firmware Download procedure Firmwares are found at the following link: http://www.classeaudio.com/downloads/Downloads.htm?Path=/OPERATING_SOFTWARE USB Driver: http://www.silabs.com/Support%20Documents/Software/CP210x_VCP_Windows.zip Microsoft Redistributable software: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5638 1. Follow the link above for the correct Firmware 2. Select the file for the model you want to update. 3. The *.pkg file is the operating software for the Classé component. Download the *.pkg file and save to a location on your hard drive.
6. Find the “PORTS (COM & LPT)” section in the list, and expand it (if not already expanded) by clicking on the small “+” sign to the left. 7. Find the “CP210x USB to UART Bridge Controller (COMx)” and make note of the Com number.

Appendix A: AC line voltage ranges The CT/SSP-800 is set at the factory (internally) for 100V, 120V, 230V, or 240V AC mains operation, as appropriate for the country in which they are sold. The CT/SSP-800 include protection circuitry that will prevent the units from operating at dangerously high or low voltages.
Appendix B: Voltage change Unplug the unit before opening. 2. Remove 10 top cover screws. 3. Locate P203, P204 and P206 headers inside the unit on PCB R6705RXX. P203 and P204 P206 CT_SSP-800 Service Manual V1.0.docx Page 18 of 25...

Appendix D: USB & RS232 interface configurations USB configuration 1. Connect the B end of the USB cable to the rear of the unit. 2. Connect the A end of the USB cable to your PC. Note: Ensure that your PC is booted up, and has an internet connection available as you may need to install Drivers from Microsoft Update.
Appendix F: IR IR Input Use the IR input when the front panel IR window does not have a clear line-of-sight with the remote control, for instance, when the SSP is installed in a cabinet or closet. Attach this input to an infrared repeater system to route signals from the remote control to the SSP via a mono mini-jack (3.5mm phono).
Appendix I: Power Supply test points Plug AC line and turn ON the main switch from back of the unit and ensure that you hear the clicking sound of relay within 2 second. Verify supply voltage on mother board R6703R04 at test point TP1502 =+12Vdc, TP202=+5Vdc, TP204=+3.3Vdc, positive side of capacitor C1546=+12Vdc, negative side of capacitor C1545=- 12Vdc, TP1505=+5Vdc and TP301=+3.3Vdc with respect to analog ground TP1513.
