BRIDGED (MONO) MODE
Use centre Speakon connector marked 'BRIDGED' and connect as follows:
For bridged operation:
For 4-pole connection to both channels:
(Bridged switch de-selected [ie Out])
When operating in bridged mode, the minimum impedances are doubled. The minimum load
in bridged mode is 4 ohms.
LINK SOCKET
Each channel is provided with a 3-pin XLR connector marked 'LINK' which allows the input signal to be
linked to further amplifiers etc. The connections are the same as for the input XLR.

Operation

SWITCHING ON

At 'switch-on' the protection circuit will initially activate whilst the circuits stabilise. Assuming no faults
are detected after a few seconds, only the 'POWER' LED (and 'SIGNAL' indicators if signal is applied) will
illuminate.
PANEL CONTROLS AND INDICATORS
Level controls
These are analogue controls allowing precise level settings. Note that in 'BRIDGED' mode only 'channel
A' control is active.
Signal Indicators (3 Green LEDs)
These are active from a minimum output level of approximately 10 Watts and are only an indication of
signal level.
-3dB Indicators (yellow LED)
These are active when the signal is 3dB below the limiting level.
Limiters (Red LED)
The E Series amplifiers incorporate signal limiters, which are preset to prevent clipping with high levels
of drive. The amber LEDs on the front panel illuminate to indicate operation of the limiters.
PRC Indicators (green LED)
These indicate when the PRC circuit for that specific channel has been selected with the rear panel
switches.
