Since buying the NT 212 years ago within the used marketplace, the first issue had been that the amplifier took longer than the normal 4 second delay for the soft start feature to power-on the amplifier, but without any issue once the amplifier powered-on. In every other respect, the amplifier had been stable and trouble-free.
Yesterday, the amplifier did not power-on at all, as dead as a doornail. So I checked the pair of fuses located in the IEC inlet fuse holder, and found that both fuses were blown. I then replaced the fuses with the proper 4A fuse value and plugged the NT 212 into a GFCI protected AC outlet to see if the device would power-on:
With the power switch in the off position, I plugged-in the power cord and immediately saw that the two LED indicator lights were illuminated. Pressing the switch to the on/off positions does not change the indicator lights. Even though not under a load for the test to help discharge the power supply caps, when the switch stays in the off position for approx 1 hour the pair of green indicator lights still remain illuminated.
Note: The remote trigger function is in the off position, so that aspect does not seem to be an issue in this case.
So I wish to avoid the next step of testing the NT 212 under load in the system until I get an idea of what may have happened, or what might be happening at this time.
TIA
