Auto Standby Function; Indicators - Ecler Ampack2-70 Bedienungsanleitung

4.5. AUTO STANDBY function

The AUTO STANDBY functionality allows flexible installation of the AMPACK series in less
accessible places, since you can leave the device indefinitely connected to mains supply, its activation
or deactivation automatically depending on the presence of an input signal.
If the signal present at any of the device inputs remains under -35dBV for more than 2
minutes, the AMPACK automatically enters in STANDBY mode. This is well indicated by the front panel
ON indicator turning from green (ON) to red (STANDBY).
When in STANDBY mode, the power consumption of the AMPACK2-70 and the
AMPACK4-70 is lower than 9W.
When the signal level becomes higher than -35dBV the device will automatically switch to ON
mode.

4.6. Indicators

The "SP" LED (8) indicates signal presence at the amplifier input. It lights up when the
input level exceeds the set detection threshold.
The "CLlP" LED (10) lights up when the signal delivered to the speakers is nearly really to
clipping or amplifier saturation. This system considers possible variations of the mains voltage,
always giving a real indication independent of the mains voltage. Care should be taken when
adjusting input levels. The CLIP indicators (saturation or clipping) should never stay permanently lit,
but only (and at the most) at the rhythm of the sound sequence lowest frequencies. Otherwise the
signal feeding the power stages would suffer high distortion levels and have low acoustic quality and
intelligibility.
