AC Line Connector: Five cordsets supplied with amplifi er
(USA, UK, European, Australia, India).
Front Panel Controls and Indicators
Bridge Mode Indicator: Yellow LED illuminates when the
amplifi er is set to Bridge-Mono mode.
Ready Indicator: Green LED, one per channel, illuminates
when the channel is initialized and ready to produce audio
output. Indicator is off when the amplifi er is in standby
mode via the control software.
Signal Indicators: Three green LEDs per channel indicate
the amplifi er's input and output signal levels.
Signal: input signal is above –40 dBu.
–20 dB: amplifi er output is 20 dB below clipping.
–10 dB: amplifi er output is 10 dB below clipping.
Clip Indicator: Red LED, one per channel, illuminates
when the channel's output signal reaches the onset of
audible clipping. The Clip Indicator also will illuminate
during Thermal Level Control (TLC) limiting.
Thermal Indicator: Red LED, one per channel, illuminates
when the channel has shut down due to thermal stress
or overload.
Fault Indicator: Red LED, one per channel, fl ashes when
the amplifi er output channel has stopped operating.
Data Indicator: Yellow LED indicates network data activ-
ity. Data indicator fl ashes only when the amplifi er is polled
for data, or is polled to see whether it is online
Power Indicator: Blue LED indicates amplifi er has been
turned on and AC power is available. The LED will fl ash
when the AC line voltage is 15% above or below the
nominal rated value.
AC Mains Present Indicator: Green indicator built into
power switch indicates AC power is present at the power
cord and the amplifi er circuit breaker is in the "on"
position.
LCD Control Screen and Controls: These let the user
adjust the amplifi er's attenuation and muting, confi gure
the amp, set up and view error monitoring (such as tem-
perature and load supervision), and recall DSP presets.
The presets allow the user to quickly reconfi gure the amp
for various applications.
LCD Control Screen: Integrated LCD with white LED
backlight, controls amplifi er setup and operation.
Normal mode: Attenuation in 0.5 dB steps, Mute/
Unmute, Front Panel Lockout.

Clip Limiter, Peak Voltage Limiter, Average Power Lim-
iter, Pink Noise Generator, AES/EBU Input Trim, Input
Source, Maximum Analog Input, Meter Display Type.
Monitor Menu: Speaker Load, Thermal %, AC Voltage,
Operating Time, Firmware, Manufacturing Info, Net-
working, Thermal Errors, Clip Errors, Low Limit Load
Errors, High Limit Load Errors, Line Voltage Errors.
Menu/Exit Button: "Menu" enters the main menu.
"Exit" gets out of the Menu.
Next Button: Selects the next item in the Menu.
Prev Button: Selects the previous item in the Menu.
Level Controls (Encoders): Speed-sensitive rotary
encoders, 0.5 dB steps, range 0 to –100 dB. These
two knobs affect the Channel-1 and Channel-2 output
levels. They also select Menu items and adjust param-
eter values that are displayed on the LCD Control
Screen.
Power Switch: Push-on/push-off switch with built-in
green AC mains present indicator.
Back Panel Controls, Indicators and Connectors
Power Cord Connector: Standard 20 amp IEC inlet. Volt-
age range is indicated above IEC inlet.
Reset Switch/Circuit Breaker: If the current draw of the
I-Tech Series
amplifi er exceeds safe limits, this breaker automatically
disconnects the power supply from the AC mains. The
switch resets the circuit breaker.
Output Connectors: Two high-current, 50A Neutrik
®
Speakon
NL4MLP (mates with NL4FC or NL4), one per
channel. Two pairs of high-current, 60A color-coded 5-
way binding posts (for banana plugs, spade lugs or bare
wire). Two male XLR passive analog loop through. XLR
active/re-clocked AES/EBU digital loop through.
Analog Input Connectors: A 3-pin female XLR connector
for each channel.
Digital Input Connector: A 3-pin female XLR connector
that accepts a digital signal in the AES/EBU format.
Network Connector: This Ethernet connector accepts an
RJ-45 connector for TCP/IQ or HiQnet networking. Built
into the connector is a yellow LINK ACT indicator that
shows network activity, and a green 100Mb indicator that
shows a 100Mb network connection.
Data Indicator: Yellow LED indicates network data activ-
ity. Data indicator fl ashes only when the amplifi er is polled
for data, or is polled to see whether it is online.
Preset Indicator: Yellow LED fl ashes to signal the number
of the current preset if active.
