PREAMPLIFIER LED INDICATORS
POWER (Green) – When lit, indicates power is applied to the amplifier.
STATUS (Red) – Indicates the status of the preamplifier/amplifier (See below).
COM (Green) – Quick flashes indicate communication with the Core Computer is OK.
MUTE (Red) – Indicates the mute status of the amplifier (On = muted, Off = not muted)
OVERCURRENT – When lit, indicates the amplifier is overloaded or clipping. Verify speaker load
and ensure there are no shorted speaker wires.
THERMAL – When lit, indicates the amplifier is overheating. Be sure the cabinet fan(s) are working,
the filters are clean, and nothing is blocking air flow through the cabinet.
RAIL VOLTAGE – (1000 watt 40991407 and 40991417 amplifiers only) When lit, indicates the
amplifier power supply is on or the power supply capacitors have not yet discharged. To prevent
damage to the amplifiers, DO NOT connect or disconnect the cable between the Primary
Amplifier and the Secondary Amplifier while these LEDs are lit.
Preamplifier STATUS LED – Normal Operation
The STATUS LED is used to indicate the status of the preamplifier. Under normal conditions the STATUS
LED will flash once on power up, stay off for a second, and then turn back on and stay on. If either of the
two microphone inputs become active, either by activation of the SENSE line or by the Voice Activation
Circuits, the STATUS LED will blink on and off at a 150ms rate until the microphone circuits become
inactive.
Preamplifier STATUS LED – Error Conditions
The STATUS LED is used to indicate possible faults on the preamplifier board. During power up, the
preamplifier runs a self test. If a fault is detected, the STATUS LED is used to indicate what may be
wrong. The LED will repeat a pattern of a specific number of blinks.
The blink pattern is 500ms on, 500ms off and then one to eight quick 100ms on blinks, followed by three
seconds off. The blinking pattern will repeat until the preamplifier is reset or power is turned off.
1 Digital Audio Processor did not come out of RESET
2 Digital Audio Processor COM Error
3 EEPROM COM Error
4 Digital Audio Processor Memory Load Error
5 EEPROM Data Error
6 Digital Potentiometer COM Error in Mic Circuit
7 I
C SDA Line is Stuck Low
8 Firmware Mismatch – Processor and DSP Firmware Not Compatible
If the DAP (Digital Audio Processor) fails during normal operation, the STATUS led will blink one second
on, two seconds off, continuously, until power is cycled or until the DAP failure goes away.
