I’m facing problem to switch ON and OFF from SA30 to PA240 . Any idea ? SA30 don’t have trigger output. Probably I should open it and find somewhere 12V and use it . I see PA240 has IP and RS232 control.

> Has anyone been using a SA30 with PA 240 in a biamp set up. Let’s say if you start streaming and wake up the amp when it is in a network standby mode, does it also automatically wake up the PA 240 downstream if it is connected using RCA cables from pre-outs of the amplifier to the power amp. Is there any other connection between these 2 that could facilitate this in case it doesn’t happen automatically? I’m presuming that there is a standby mode that the PA 240 goes into if there is 20 minutes o…
