Operating the VK-6200

 

 
Turning the VK-6200 On: 
 
The power switch is located in the center of the front panel of the VK-6200.  Pressing on the 
top of switch bar will turn the unit ON and OFF, provided the VK-6200 is not in its Standby 
mode (see below for operation in Standby mode).   
 
 
Front Panel Indicators: 
 
There are three LED indicators on the front panel of the VK-6200: 
 

1.  Blue Power ON indicator 

 

2.  Green STANDBY indicator. 

 

3.  Red FAULT indicator 

 

 

 
Their operation is described below: 
 
 
Blue Power On indicator
 

It comes ON when the unit is powered up.  Pressing the power switch will make the unit 

alternate between its ON and OFF state, provided it is not in its STANDBY mode. 

 
NOTE:  Your VK-6200 is equipped with a smart power ON management circuit.  This 

circuit applies power only to those channels that are installed.  It does so in sequence, 
minimizing the initial power surge in order not to stress your power line.  When turning the 
VK-6200 ON you will hear several relay clicks inside the unit.  The number of clicks will be 
equal to the number of channels installed in the chassis.   

 
When additional channels are installed in the VK-6200 chassis, the circuit will 

automatically recognize them and power them up in proper sequence.
