The PREAMP CLIP/ STATUS INDICATOR LED on the face of the POWERSTAGE 200 amplifer serves multiple purposes, and lights up indicating the following.
- Preamp voltage clip warning - the LED will begin to light when the input signal is 6dB below the level of clipping. You should adjust the output level of the audio device directly feeding the PS200 so that this LED flashes on signal peaks.
- Protect Status of the power supply/power amp module - when lit continuously, the amplifier has shut itself down and entered protect mode due to potentially destructive overload conditions. In these cases, the amplifier will typically resume operation after a short delay or after the overload condition has been eliminated. Some causes are:
- Severe overcurrent conditions and/or a short circuit on the speaker output.
- Over-temperature conditions due to heavy loading at high output levels.
- Over-temperature conditions due to inadequate air flow or excessively high ambient temperatures.
