CIRCUIT CALIBRATION
Bias:
The bias control establishes the quiescent Class AB output current of the amplifier. The bias should not need readjustment
from the factory setting; however, if the amplifier is repaired and the output devices have been changed, calibrating the bias
is necessary. Disconnect the power to the amplifier before removing the heatsink assembly from the speaker cabinet. To
adjust the bias, remove the jumper TP1 and connect an ammeter across the exposed pins. Adjust trimpot R9 fully counter-
clockwise before reapplying power to the unit. After the Soft Start turn-on has settled, note the ammeter reading. Adjust R9
until an additional 50mA is added to the ammeter reading. Replace jumper TP1. If the green power LED is not illuminated,
apply a low frequency input signal to the amplifier input to activate the signal sensing turn on circuit. Be sure to remove the
signal before adjusting the bias.
