Hey Guys,
I have had to use the manual on/off as opposed to the trigger. I have checked and double checked the connection. (FYI Page 8 770 manual Automatic On. "As described on page?." It doesn't actually tell you the page )

Someone that has it working please walk me thru how you have yours setup.

1. I am using the supplied (770) trigger cable. I made sure it was plugged into DC Trigger Main.

2. I assume you use this instead of the main power switch.

Regardless I have tried it in every possible combination of switches on/off and have not had remote trigger work.

Thanks.

I don't know what all you've tried, but here's how I'd do it based on how I have my 750 set up. Run the trigger cable from the main trigger output on the 950 to the 770's trigger input. Turn on the 950. Turn on the 770 with the front power switch (also need the rear "master" power on, of course). Now, when you turn the 950 off the 770 will also go off. And when you turn the 950 back on the 770 should come back on, too.

That any help?

It is sort of confusing, because the power button stays lit up, even though the amp is off, in standby mode. When you turn on your 950, can you hear when the amp kicks in?

alfack -- I've got a 750, and on it the power button light goes off when the amp is triggered off. (At least, that's how it worked when I triggered it directly from my 1050; I've got it on a switched high-current outlet in a Panamax MAX5100 now, so the outlet is getting switced now.) Has that changed on the newer amps (770/755)? That'd definitely be good to know. It would explain stott's trouble (he could try the right configuration and assume that the amp didn't trigger off when it really did).

I can confirm that the trigger does not turn the light off, at least on the 755, and I would assume the mechanism is the same. It confused me for a while, because I did not think I had it set up correctly, but the amp does not get hot, so I guess it is off.

Well, Sounds like I have it hooked up properly. I did not hear the relay click off or the light turn off which was why I assumed it was still on. I wouldn't expect it to heat up since I am not drawing any load off of it in standby. I think I will shoot the outlaws an email and see what they say.

Good to hear that. Thanks guys. I was wondering the same thing with my 770. I figured it was off but its nice to have some backing.

Mine does get hot at idle.

I will post my response when I hear from the outlaws. I have been turning it off when not in use regardless
