Operation Modes Stereo Operation For stereo (dual channel) operation, turn the amplifier OFF and set the mode select switches on the back panel to the out (extended) position. In this mode, both channels operate independently of each other, with their input attenuators controlling their respective levels. Thus, a signal at channel A’s input produces an amplified signal at channel A’s output, while a signal at channel B’s input produces an amplified signal at channel B’s output. Parallel Oper

Protection Features ® The Peavey CS Series incorporates several circuits to protect the amplifier and speakers under virtually any situation. Peavey has made the amplifiers as foolproof as possible by making them immune to short and open circuits, mismatched loads, ™ DC voltage and overheating. If a channel goes into the DDT gain reduction mode, the DDT LED illuminates. The clipping percentage or output power is instantly reduced. When a problem occurs that causes a channel to go into a prote

Protection Features ™ RampUp Signal Control ® Whenever a CS Series amplifier powers up or comes out of a protect mode, the RampUp circuit activates. While the ™ speakers are disconnected, the RampUp circuit fully attenuates the signal and activates the DDT LED. After the output relay closes, the signal slowly and gradually raises up to its set level. The PWR LED will illuminate and the DDT LED will turn off when the signal is no longer attenuated. The RampUp Signal Control circuit has some i
