FAQs

NOTE: these will be moved to a new page when there are more of them.


Start Up / Cycle Time

The model II takes a few seconds to fully boot up and then turn the audio on. Make sure you are waiting the right amount of time.

Secondly, if you do reset the system for some reason, be sure to wait a full two or three seconds between turning it off and turning it back on.

Fan Noise

Q: The fan in the Power Stand comes on when I strike a chord on my Guitar. Is this normal? A: Your unit is functioning properly - no problem.

The fan in the PS2 comes on when the input signal level goes over a certain limit, regardless of what the internal temperature of the unit is. That way, the unit never gets too hot to where a fan needs to be on constantly.

Whatever you do, please don't cover up the fan port.[2]

There is a Firmware Update that addresses the fan behaviour. See: L1™ Model II Power Stand Firmware Updates#Fan_Behavior
