• The unit does not exit standby mode when DC voltage is detected. The amplifier only comes out of standby mode by either resetting the device or powering it down.
NOTE: The power indicator LED may stay lit amber for a short time after you remove the AC power supply. This is normal.
B Over Temp indicator — A single LED that lights red when the amplifier has exceeded the maximum recommended operating temperature. The amplifier recovers once the unit has cooled down to below the maximum recommended operating temperature.
Power limiting may occur depending on the unit temperature.
C Channel status LEDs — Two rows of LEDs that represent the amplifier channels.
• Limiter/Protect LEDs — These LEDs lights red when the channel is in protection mode, which is triggered by any of the limiter protection circuits such as:
• When the clip limiter is activated due to excessive clipping
• When the output short circuits
• Signal LEDs — These LEDs light green when the corresponding input signal is detected.
NOTE: The LEDs are also located on the rear panel.

SIGNAL
C Attenuators — Use an Extron Tweeker or other small screwdriver to adjust the gain for a corresponding channel. Each channel has its own potentiometer, ranging from ∞ (full attenuation) to 0 dB (no attenuation)
To adjust the attenuation level on the amplifier, perform the following:
When volume is controlled at the source:
1. If connecting to a source device with volume control (variable output), ensure the volume on the source device is set to its lowest point, then adjust the attenuation of the amplifier fully counterclockwise.
2. Set the source device volume to the maximum level and listen to the connected speakers. No sound should come out.
3. Raise the attenuation on the XPA U 3502 amplifier until sound distortion occurs, then lower the attenuation level slowly until distortion disappears. This setting ensures no clipping occurs, regardless of the source device volume setting.
NOTE: When setting volume control through a source device, make sure the device volume is set to variable out. Consult the device user manual for detailed instructions on its calibration.

When volume is controlled at the amplifier:
1. If volume will be controlled at the amplifier using a remote volume control (see
on the next page for details), ensure the volume on the source device is set to its lowest point, then adjust the attenuation of the amplifier fully counterclockwise.
2. Set the source device volume to its maximum level and listen to the connected speakers.
3. Set the remote volume control to its maximum level. No sound should come out.
4. Raise the attenuation on the XPA U 3502 amplifier until sound distortion occurs, then lower the attenuation level slowly until distortion disappears. This setting ensures no clipping occurs, whatever the source device volume setting is.
ATTENTION :
• The default position of all potentiometers when shipped is turned fully counter-clockwise (fully attenuated).
• La position par défaut de tous les potentiomètres lors de leur expédition est orientée vers le sens antihoraire (atténuation complète).
• Do not use a screwdriver to adjust the potentiometers. The potentiometers should only be adjusted as needed using the included tweeker (small screwdriver).
• Ne pas utiliser de tournevis pour ajuster les potentiomètres. Les potentiomètres doivent uniquement être ajustés selon les besoins avec le petit tournevis fourni.
• While potentiometer tuning knobs may look like screws, they do not function in the same manner. Use a light touch when adjusting to avoid applying excessive torque to the potentiometers.
• Bien que les boutons de réglage du potentiomètre ressemblent à des vis, ils n’ont pas la même fonction. Exercez une pression légère lors du réglage afin d’éviter un serrage excessif des potentiomètres.
• Applying excessive torque can mechanically damage the potentiometer, rendering it inoperable and voiding the product warranty.
• Un serrage excessif peut endommager le potentiomètre, le rendant inutilisable et annulant la garantie du produit.
NOTE: When volume will be controlled at the amplifier using a remote volume control, make sure the source device audio output is set to fixed output
(local volume control is disabled). Consult the device user manual for detailed instructions on its calibration.

Remote Volume Control Port
The XPA U 3502 provides remote volume ports for
Channels 1 and 2. Each port independently controls the volume for its respective channel. The upper port controls Channel 2 and the first three pins of the lower port controls Channel 1. Both ports use a 3-pin captive screw plug for volume control on the V, C, and G pins; the lower port also includes a 2-pin captive screw connector for standby on the STANDBY and G pins (see
Remote Standby Port on page 17 for more
information).

Remote Standby Port
The 2-pole 3.5 mm captive screw port is used to remotely place the amplifier into standby mode.
Connecting the Standby pin to the Ground pin places the amplifier in standby mode. Standby mode turns off all output, although the amplifier is still receiving power. Use the included 2-pole 3.5 mm captive screw connector to remotely ground the Standby pin (see the image at right). The power indicator LED lights amber when the amplifier is in standby mode.
The amplifier enters standby mode after 25 minutes of inactivity after a loss of signal. The inactivity timer can be disabled by wiring a 10 kΩ resistor between the Standby and Ground pins, as shown at right. The amplifier can still be forced into standby mode via the remote standby connector.
