SIGNAL signal output indicator for each seperated channel
SIGNAL signal indicator is equivalent to outputs paralleled on the circuit. When the
Gain is turned to minimum and whether there is input signal, the signal indicator will not
light up.
CLIP / ERR output overdrive / error indicator for each seperated channel
When input signal is too big, the CLIP / ERR indicator lights up. Too strong and continuous
clip may cause damage to the speaker and sound. Please reduce gain or signal input when
the clip is too frequentCLIP/ ERR for more indications: (next page)
1.CLIP/ ERR lights up when the amplifier is powered on during self-examine process, The
process has not any output and after 2s examination, CLIP / ERR lights off.
2.CLIP / ERR lights up when the amplifier is short circuit or at too low impedance, however it
can be off by turn off volume. Please check the loading impedance and output connection.
3.CLIP/ ERR lights up when device temperature is over the limit and output is temporarily cut
off. Please turn off the amplifier, improve the cooling condition, and clean the ventilation.
4.CLIP / ERR lights up when defection appears, if you are not sure the problems, please
consult techni

a Make sure the local voltage complies with the voltage requirement indicated at the back of amplifier
b.Make sure the power cord and socket are good, the plug type matches the socket.
¢.Make sure the amplifier is well connected to earth.
Pull out plug after power off.
e.Select the power volume based on power consumption indicated in the data sheet.
8. INPUT / OUTPUT CONNECTORS
i Input connectors
‘The product is designed with balanced input circuit to lower noise, please use balanced connection
for the device.
‘A Note: If your signal output device is an unbalanced circuit design, please do not use single core
shielded wire, connect the negative pole of dual core wire to earth and make balanced input
connection to get equivalent noise restrain
There is a XLR socket for each channel. In LINK mode, the input sockets are in parallel, you can
input signal to any channel socket.
In different models, there are XLR and TRS socket for link output, which is paralleled with the input
socket. You can connect the other amplifier from the output socket and even link in groups.
This link method is very convenient, but link too much will cause signal interference or lost.
‘A Note: In LINK mode, do not input signal to both channel sockets at the same time, which will cause
abnormal operations. ie APT out

There are one group binding post and one NL4 MP socket as power output connector for each
channel, which are in parallel connection. For each channel, the red binding post connects positive
pole of power output while the black binding post connects negative pole.
The 1+ leg of NL4 socket connects positive pole of power output while 1- leg connects negative pole.
A Note: For each channel, do noy drys the speaker whose impedance is less than 4ohm, which may
cause abnormal or overheat use
‘A Note: The output voltage may cause electric shock. Make sure the amplifier is off when you
connect the speaker. Do not touch the naked part between amplifier output and the speaker wire.|

9. FUNCTION SETUP AND CABLE CONNECTION
Ml Gain control
altt pur
Tum the gain knob clockwise on the front panel to increase gain, turn anticlockwise to decrease gain
Note! The gain knob is not for amplifier power rather than amplification times for input signal
Note! When the gain is turned too small (less than 12 o'clock position), the signal may be damaged in
Pre-process, in which case, the amplifier cannot deliver full power by increase signal input.
