Aux Port
AUX Port
The AUX port can be used for basic monitoring of the amplifier and for remote standby. The port is a 3 pin block connector with pin-2 used as ground.
Sleep
The amplifier can be put to sleep by connecting pins 1 and 2 on the AUX port. When applying this connection, the amplifier will shut down and remain in sleep until the
connection between pins 1 and 2 is open. While the amplifier is in sleep, the front panel power button is disabled. When the connection between pins 1 and 2 is open,
the amplifier will revert to its last configuration and begin to output audio within 20 seconds. Communication via the network will take as long as the network
interface card boots. If the front power button is pressed while the amp is in sleep mode, the blue power indicator will blink twice.
Amp Status
AMP STATUS can be used for basic monitoring of the amplifier. Monitoring of the amplifier can determine if the amplifier is operating within optimal parameters or if the
amplifier has been shut off or is in fault. Between pins 2 and 3, there will be either a +5VDC potential or a 2Hz square wave (heart beat). This option can be found in the
AMP INFO button on the main amplifier page.
