Protection Modes And Indicators - Classe Audio CAP-100 Service Manual

Protection Modes and Indicators

The front LED display shows the status of the amplifier. When starting up normally, the CAP100 / CAP150 will
show a FLASHING MUTE LED for about 20 sec. However, there is no protection on the CAP100 / CAP150. The
CAP100 / CAP150 is equipped with four rail protection fuses. In the event that one or more of these fuses
would blow, the technician will first need to identify and cure the cause of failure (please report to
troubleshooting guide). When the cause has been identified, disconnect the unit from the system including the
AC power. Remove the top cover and look for damaged or burned components. If no other components than
the fuses appear to be damaged, the technician can then replace the broken fuses with the same value and
rating (please report to fuses section). The rail fuses are located on the main board. When replacing fuses,
please make sure that the fuse holder are holding the fuses very tightly. A loose fuse holder can translate into
distortion on top of the signal.
