Amplifier Visual Troubleshooting - Orion XTR5001 Manual Del Propietário

slight distortion and turn the level control back slightly for an
undistorted output . Depending on your system, the midrange and
tweeter output may be on the same output channels .
6 . turn up the level control corresponding to the tweeter output
until you hear slight distortion and turn back the level control
slightly for an undistorted output . Depending on your system
the midrange and tweeter output may be on the same output
channels .
7 . Fine-tune the output level between midrange and tweeters .
Refer to the Internal Crossover Configuration section of this
manual for detailed instructions .
8 . Repeat steps 5-7 for the rear speakers . If you do not have rear
speakers continue to step 10 .
9 . set levels between the front and rear midrange and tweeters for
optimum front/rear balance .
10 . turn up the level control corresponding to the woofer output
until you hear slight distortion and turn back the level control
slightly for an undistorted output .
11 . Fine-tune the output level between satellite speakers and the
woofers . Refer to the Internal Crossover Configuration section
of this manual for detailed instructions . If using an RGC2, adjust
the level to the output of the woofer to match the sonic require-
ments of the system .
12 . enjoy your awesome orion sound system .

Amplifier Visual Troubleshooting

Your new XtR amplifier has three indicator lights (LeD's) mounted on
the top plate of the amplifier as seen in the next figure . these lights
are very useful in trouble shooting possible amplifier problems and
issues .
Power LED: this LeD lights up green when the amplifier is turned on .
this represents normal operation if the Protection and thermal LeD's
next to it are off .
Protection LED: this LeD lights up red if the amplifier goes into
protection . Below is a description of reasons the amplifier could
engage the protection circuit . the protection indications will self
reset once the condition has been fixed .
• Short: speaker wires pinched or shorted together or to ground
(frame of vehicle) .
• Overcurrent: Check for possible speaker issue(s) or speaker wiring
pinched in a door or other metal . Make sure speaker(s) load is not
below the minimum impedance load .
• DC Offset: this can happen if the installation inadvertently
connects the power wire to the speaker input(s) . this can also
happen if the amplifier has an internal problem .
• Undervoltage: Vehicle charging system is not supplying enough
voltage to the amplifier . this can also occur if you use too small
a gauge wire or the terminals connecting the amplifier power to
the electrical system are dirty or corroded .
• Overvoltage: Vehicle charging system is supplying too much
voltage or over the amplifiers rated DC input . Usually this occurs
when there is a problem with the electrical system . turn off the
headunit when jump-starting the car .
