V800 FRONT PANEL DESCRIPTION
1. FRONT MOUNTING BRACKETS Used in conjunction with the rear brackets to mount the amplifier in a
rack system.
2. BRIDGED (MONO) MODE INDICATOR This lights to indicate that the amplifier is running in Bridged
Mono mode, as selected via the internal switch.
-In order to activate Bridged operation, firstly remove the amplifier from the mains supply by
withdrawing the mains connector. Unscrew the bottom cover, and locate the switch towards the
back and centre of the amplifier. Select the desired mode (Stereo or Bridged using the PCB mounted
switch). Replace cover and screws before connecting mains power.
3 & 5. INPUT ATTENUATORS Each channel is fitted with a precision detented calibrated input attenuator.
Use this to correctly set the level on incoming signals. During Bridged Mono mode (see above) Channel 1 only
should be used, with Channel 2 set to -¥
4 & 6 OUTPUT METER Green LEDs indicate the amplifiers output in dB relative to the rated output. The 0dB
orange LED lights to show that the amplifier is operating at the maximum rated output, approximately 1dB below
its clipping point. The red Clip LED indicates the onset of clipping. The meter is peak sensing, with a fast attack and
slow decay time. It is also load sensitive, and the 0dB indicator adjusts according to load impedance.
7. MAIN POWER SWITCH Switches the mains power ON and OFF.
8. THERMAL PROTECT INDICATOR When this indicator is ON the amplifier power supply has been
switched off by the thermal protection circuit. This will occur when the internal temperature rises above 90˚C. At
the same time, the speaker protection relay will become active, removing any potential overload from the amplifier.
If the thermal protection circuit becomes active, leave the unit powered on; the fans will continue to run until the
internal temperature drops below 90˚C, at which point, the circuit will deactivate and the amplifier will resume
normal operation.
