4.3.1 Input Selection LED

The status of the bi-coloured (green / orange) LED changes between off,
green, and orange depending on the selected input (see 3.4).

LED is off

– Analog inputs active

LED lit green

– Digital (Uman) inputs active

LED lit orange – Digital AES input is active

4.3.2 Output Mode LED

The status of the bi-coloured (green / orange) LED changes between off,
green, and orange depending on the selected Output Mode (see 3.6).

LED is off

– Dual Channel operation

LED lit green

– Mono Bridge operation

LED lit orange – Parallel Mono operation

4.3.3 Clip LEDs (Channel A

/ Channel B)

This LED indicates an overloading of the corresponding amplifier channel.

4.3.4 Input Signal LEDs (Channel A

/

Channel B)

The green Signal LED is illuminated when the input signal level is suffi-
ciently high for creating an output voltage of approx. 4 V; this corresponds
to an output power of approx. 4 W over a 4 Ω load.
Note that these LED’s are only driven by the input signal level, and will
therefore also be active if the output channels are muted or the attenuation
is set to maximum (−127,5 dB).

4.3.5 Device Identifier LED

This white coloured LED helps you to identify an amplifier in a large Uman
network. By activating the Identify Device function in Uman software, the
Device Identifer LED of the corresponding amplifier will flash in a bright
white.
Attention: avoid looking directly into the LED when near the amplifier!

4.3.6 DSP LED

The green DSP LED is illuminated when the internal DSP is routed into
the signal path. With the DSP-Board installed you can route the DSP into
the signal chain (DSP On) or bypass the complete DSP section (DSP Off).

the Amplifier please visit www.camcoaudio.com.

4.3.7 Uman LED

This green LED is illuminated when the amplifier’s input source is set to
Uman.
