Operating your P1000
Power
The P1000 front panel has a single control: a power on/off button, located on the right.
The power button switches the P1000 in to and out of stand-by. To switch the unit off completely, use
the switch on the rear panel. Conversely, if the P1000 fails to power on when the button on the front
panel is pressed, ensure that the switch on the rear panel is in the ‘on’ position.
When the unit is mains powered but in standby mode, the LED next to the power button is red. In
normal use, the LED is green.
Switching on
It is recommended that you switch on your pre-amplifi er or controller before powering up the P1000, as
this will reduce the chance of any ‘thumps’ being fed through to the power amp.
Switching off
To shut down, switch the P1000 off fi rst, followed by the pre-amp. or controller.
Channel-status indicator lights
Each channel of amplifi cation on the P1000 has a unique status-indicator light.
On power-up, the lights change from amber to green, which indicates the change in status from
initialising to active. All lights are switched off in stand-by mode.
If the status lights do not follow this sequence when the P1000 is powered up, or behave abnormally at
any time during use, refer to the table on page 10 to determine the problem.
