10.5 Installation
The basic amplifier is suitable for only 19-inch rack 
installation.
Ensure there is enough space for the cool air flow to 
enter and the warm air flow to leave the basic amplifier.
10.6 Operation
The front panel of the amplifier has LED indicators that 
show the status of the amplifier channels, battery 
back-up, mains supply and supervision. See the table 
10.5 a
nd table 10.6 for the descriptions of the status 
LEDs.
The LED indicators will show the fault status of the 
mains supply and battery supply if supervision is 
enabled with the supervision switches (9 in figure 10.2). 
This status is always transferred to the multi channel 
interface, even if the switches are in the Off-position. 
The switches only control the LED indicators, e.g. for 
stand-alone use.
The amplifier channel LED indicators show the status of 
each amplifier channel independently. Each channel 
has four indicators, one yellow and three green. See 
table 10.7 for the descriptions of the status LEDs for the 
amplifier channels.

screws of 7.5 mm thread length at the front side 
of each bracket, use a short screw of 5.2 mm 
thread length at the rear side of each bracket. 
Do not use screws with a thread length of 
>10 mm for the front positions or screws with a 
thread length of >5.7 mm at the rear postion;
