OMICRON ISSUE 2 DEC ‘98

STEREO (CONTINUED)

DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN the output connectors. When powering up the OMICRON in stereo

mode, the left channel LED will blink for approximately 20 seconds, when the sequence is

completed, the LED will turn SOLID RED. Then, the right channel LED will also blink for

approximately 20 seconds and will also turn solid red once it has completed its turn on sequence.

MONO

Please read through the previous Stereo section for general notes on securing good

connections, and safety tips. If the unit has been previously used in stereo, make sure it is OFF, and

remove all connections, including the AC line cable. Make sure the STEREO/MONO switch is

switched to the MONO position. NOTE: The Stereo-Mono switch will not operate if the amplifier is

turned on, you will NOT be able to change from one mode to the other, as the mode is “locked”

while the amplifier is on.

When the turn on sequence has been completed with the unit set for MONO operation, only

the CENTER LED will light up.

The MONO "Input" is the "left channel input", as marked. The unused right channel input is

automatically disconnected. Correct output phase MONO connections are marked below the

connectors.

Repeat the above MONO settings and connections on the second OMICRON to be used for

the other channel.

Please remember that the negative output connection of a bridged amplifier is NOT a

ground. Do not use a "common ground” switch-box set-up. Do not use with electronic crossovers

which have a common ground. Connecting two bridged amplifiers to a common ground device of

any sort will cause the amplifiers to fail.
