Operation; Problem Chart - Omnitronic MCP-8150 Bedienungsanleitung

Adjust the level with the odd Level-control on the rear panel.

OPERATION

After having connected your amplifier to the mains, turn both gain controls counter-clockwise to Min-position.
The last device to be switched on is the amplifier. After the turn-on delay the speakers are activated.
After having set the volume controls of the pre-amplifier in null-position, turn the gain controls of your
amplifier to mid-position. You must not hear any loud humming. If there is humming nevertheless, check the
connecting cables between the pre-amplifier and the amplifier (switch off components before). Now adjust
the volume with the gain controls.
Caution! Increase the level of each channel only so far that the CLIP-LED lights up shortly. Thus, you avoid
that the output signal is distorted and your speakers are damaged.
All important operating modes of the amplifier are arranged on the frontpanel.
SIGNAL
CLIP
When operating the amplifying system, please make sure that the loudspeakers always sound well. When
distorsions can be heard, either the amplifier or the loudspeaker is overloaded. Overloads can quickly lead to
amplifier or speaker damage.
In order to avoid damage, please reduce the volume immediately when distortions can be heard. When
speaker-systems are destroyed by overload, the guarantee becomes void.
Always check the sound pressure level with a meter in order to keep to the threshold.
If you want to switch off the system, switch off the amplifier first and then the pre-amplifiers in order to
avoid acoustic shocks on the speakers.

output level
short-circuit or impedance too low or signal distorted
CAUSE:
• The power-cord is not connected.
• The power-cord of the respective
device is not connected properly or
not connected at all.
• The connection-socket or the plug is
dirty.
• The input-signal is too strong.
• The power-cord is not connected.
up • Inputs receive DC-voltage.
• Amplifier is overheated due to
impurities.
• Impedance of speakers too low
• Short-circuit in speaker connection or
in speakers
• Technical default of amplifier
• Check the power-cord and any
extension-cables.
• Check the power-cord and if the
plugs are tightly connected with the
sockets.
• Clean the socket and/or the plug.
• Reduce the input-signal via the Gain-
control.
Please check if the power is available
• Switch amplifier off and have the
device
technician.
• Clean the fan-grille.
• Connect other speakers.
• Check speakers.
• Switch amplifier off and have the
