16: INSERT: Use this jack to connect an external effects device to the amplifier. Use a stereo 1/4" male Y
connector: ring = send, tip = return, sleeve = ground. (Refer to the illustration at the bottom of page 5.)
17: EXTERNAL SPEAKER: Use this jack to connect the amplifier to an external speaker. This jack is wired
in series with the internal speaker.
18: POWER: Use this switch to turn the amplifier on (top of the switch depressed) and off (bottom of the
switch depressed). The switch illuminates when the amplifier is on.
19: AC LINE CORD (rear panel, not shown): This grounded power cord is to be plugged into a ground-
ed power outlet, wired to current electrical codes and compatible with the voltage, power, and frequency
requirements stated on the rear panel. Do not attempt to defeat the safety ground connection.
20: FUSE (rear panel, not shown): The fuse protects the amplifier from damages caused by a faulty AC
power source and/or other problems. If the fuse opens, replace it ONLY with the same size and type. If
fuses continue to fail, check the AC source – if the source is okay, contact your Crate dealer for service
information.
21: CHANNEL SELECT / GAIN FOOTSWITCH JACK (rear panel, not shown): Use this jack to connect the
stereo 1/4" plug of the supplied three-button footswitch for remote control of channel and gain selections.
22: REVERB FOOTSWITCH JACK (rear panel, not shown): Use this jack to connect the mono 1/4" plug
connected to the three-button footswitch (supplied) for remote control of DSP on and off.
CONNECTING TO THE INSERT JACK:
The Insert jack (#16) allows
you to patch an external
effects device into the amplifier
prior to its power amp stage.
Use Crate's STP201, STP202
or STP203 stereo-to-mono Y
cord or an adapter such as
Crate's YPP117 and two 1/4"
mono signal cables to connect
the effect as shown in the
adjacent illustration.
