Why is there no sound in the auditorium with the Datasat Sound Card AP20?
First, check the front panel display to ensure the Mute button isn't active. If it is, touch it to unmute. Next, make sure the fader level isn't at zero or in the red. If it's at zero, increase the volume by turning the knob. If it's red, unmute the AP20 by touching the Muted button. Lastly, confirm that the AP20 is set to the correct audio format.
What to do if the Datasat Sound Card AP20 will not power ON?
Ensure the rear panel power switch is ON and the unit is plugged into a working AC outlet with surge protection. If rack-mounted, check the breaker. Verify the surge protector is powered. Try a different power cord. If it still won't power on, the fuse above the AC In connector on the rear panel might be blown. In this case, call a theater technician to check it.
