Front Panel Controls and Indicators - Bridge Mode Indicator: Amber LED illuminates when the amplifi er is set to Bridge-Mono mode.
- Ready Indicator: Red LED, one per channel. Bright red: Channel is ready to pass audio. Red: Onset of compression (thermal event or fan failure). Off: Thermal event has occurred.
- Signal Indicators: One green LED per channel. Solid green: Input signal is above �40 dBu. Bright green: Channel�s output signal has reached the onset of audible clipping.
- Power Indicator: Blue LED indicates amplifier has been turned on and AC power is available. The LED will fl ash when the AC line voltage is 10% above or below the nominal rated value.
- Data Indicator: Yellow LED on front panel indicates network data activity. Data indicator flashes only when the amplifier is polled for data, or is polled to see whether it is online

- Volume Control: Precision detented attenuator with 31 steps, press-and-hold mute function.
- Volume Control LED Ring: A ring of green LEDs around each volume controlshow the position of the control. Entire ring flashes when channel is muted.Can be converted to be a level meter.
Back Panel Controls, Indicators and Connectors - Power Cord Connector: Locking, detachable 20 amp IEC inlet. Voltage range is indicated above IEC inlet.
- Reset Switch/Circuit Breaker: If the current draw of the amplifier 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. Ch 1 Speakon� is wired with Ch 1 and Ch 2 outputs for use with single 4-conductor cable. Two pairs of high-current, 60A color-coded 5-way binding posts (for banana plugs, spade lugs or bare wire).
