Peavey CS 800X - Front Panel Controls and Indicators

DDTT^’ ACTIVE LED (1)
Illuminates when DDT Compression is taking place. With the ENABLE/DEFEAT switch in
the DEFEAT position, the LED indicates when clipping distortion is occurring.
POWER LED (2)
Illuminates when AC power is being supplied to the amp, and the associated channel is opera¬
tional. Illumination is delayed slightly during the power-up cycle due to the transient suppres-
sion/lhermal fault circuitry. If either channel were to experience fault conditions or to exceed
the safe operating temperature limits, then that channel will shut down, and the associated
power LED will go out, indicating such conditions exist. Also, whenever the BRIDGE mode
is selected, the power LED on channel B is defeated (OFF), just as if there were a fault condi¬
tion on channel B. This provides a positive indication that the CS-800X is in bridge mode.
INPUT SENSITIVITY (3)
Maximum input gain (minimum sensitivity rating) is achieved at the full clockwise setting.
This setting yields maximum mixer/system headroom. A setting of less than one full clockwise
turn will yield lower system noise at the expense of mixer/system headroom. Calibration
indicates sensitivity in dB V necessary to attain the full available output power rating.
POWER SWITCH (4)
Depress to “On” position to turn on.
