TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM CAUSE
AIRBASS in-
stalled, the LED is
FLASHING, but
the unit is not
functioning
• Make sure the AIRBASS switch on the amplifier's main
pc board is in the "IN" position, and that the low pass
filter in the amplifier has been engaged. (Read the am-
plifier's owner's manual to see how AIRBASS affects
your particular amplifier.)
• Make sure the AIRBASS receiver board has been pro-
grammed to the remote.
• Make sure the AIRBASS transmitter is set to the bank
the receiver board has been programmed to. (See page
9 for bank programming.)
The AIRBASS
Maximum level is
not as loud as the
amplifier without
AIRBASS.
• The "M" button level has been programmed to some
level other than the +24 dB output level. Use the é ar-
row to set the AIRBASS level to its maximum output
level (+24 dB). Follow the steps on page 10 to program
the "M" button to be the Maximum output level.
AIRBASS is work-
ing, but the range
is poor.
• Making sure the antenna is up high away from the am-
plifier, and if necessary, away from other AIRBASS an-
tennas
• The batteries in the transmitter may be low. Replace
them with fresh batteries.
