ABSTRACT:
The present invention involves an amplifier control module for an amplifier system including the addition of firmware to allow stand alone operation and to independently perform desirable functions to enhance amplifier and system operation. The system includes a Host computer connected through an interface device to the control module to send and receive serial data. An operator can set parameters and define control module responses with a Host computer. Once the parameters have been set, the control module can be severed from the system and will operate as a stand alone controller according to the firmware. The firmware includes instructions for implementing smooth output limiting (SOL), automatic standby, short detection, enhanced output device emulator protection (ODEP) conservation, and interrupt driven reporting.
