BOULDERLINK MESSAGES
Each component in the system can send a message to the
preamplifier which is then shown on its display. This is particularly
helpful in confirming the operating status of each power amplifier in
a multiple amplifier system. Typical messages on an 810 Preamplifier,
1010 Preamplifier or 1012 DAC Preamplifier are as follows.
“AMPLIFIER 1 ERROR” means that an internal power supply has
failed and the amplifier has turned itself off to protect the speakers from
damage.
“AMPLIFIER 1 IS HOT” means that is has turned itself off due to a
higher than normal temperature condition on the heatsinks.
“AMPLIFIER CLIP” means that the amplifier’s output has
momentarily reached its voltage limitation.
“UNIT 1 IS OFFLINE” means that the slave is no longer responding
via Boulderlink. Its Boulderlink cable may have become disconnected, or
the mains power has been disconnected.
“UNIT 1 IS ONLINE” means that the slave is now responding
via Boulderlink in a normal manner and has been recognized by the
master.
