Panel Descriptions
Black Max Front Panel
1. Status Indicators
The Status LEDs are multi-purpose indicators, one for each channel.
Green - Amplifier is on and operating normally.
Amber - Amplifier is in low-power consumption Sleep Mode.
Red - Amplifier has protected itself due to a fault condition.
2. Signal Indicators
Three illuminate green when signal is present at the output, one for each channel.
3. Limit Indicators
These indicators illuminate amber when excessive signal levels or very low impedance output loads cause out-
put distortion to exceed a few percent Under such conditions, a built-in Clip/Limiting circuit activates and
reduces input signal levels to protect both amplifier and speaker loads. One for each channel.
4. Power Switch/Circuit Breaker
Magnetic circuit breaker controls AC power to the amplifier.
5. Fan Air Intake and Grilles
Air intakes for 2 independent, variable speed cooling fans. Each responds as needed to keep the amplifier cool
while reducing dust build-up. Removable fan grilles are provided to allow access to the dust filters for cleaning.
