What do the front lights of my ST-UPDM4C represent?
- The blue light has to be on to ensure the related channel works without a problem. If you are obtaining a dim light, it should be a LED quality issue but won’t be a major problem. The lights should only have the status of 'on' or 'off'.
- Green LED should flash when the signal reaches -36dB.
- Red LED flash means clip (the signal is too big). Occasional flash is ok.
- When the signal is big, the light will be solid. When the signal is small, the light will flash.
What is the power consumption in amps at full power?
- 10 amps
