1.5. COOLING SYSTEM The cooling of the ALPIN 200 is realized by a high-quality blower. The air input port is to be found on the back panel of the amplifier and the output outlet on the top side. !!! ATTENTION !!! It is very important to guarantee a free air flow from the input- to the output side. -
Page 9: Operation
LCD display at the front panel: Now you can switch on the ALPIN 200 with the POWER SWITCH on the front panel. After this, it will need another 2:30 min for heating up the tube. The LCD display will inform you about the remaining time until the amplifier has reached STANDBY MODE with the following two messages. -
Page 10: Standby Mode
Please have a look at page 15 for more information. 2.3. STANDBY MODE When the warming-up time is over, the ALPIN 200 will move to standby mode. Here you can see the forward power for the first time, the reflected power, and the CAP meter. The fourth row of the display is used to show individual and /or the most essential values of the amplifier. -
