McCormack DNA-1 Problem. Help, please


Hi All,
My clean looking DNA-1 came in yesterday. I got it from a well rated A-goner who said it was functioning perfectly when shipped. It came in very will packed with no sign of damage. When I hooked it up to my Thiel 3.5s to try it out the red protect light on the faceplate came on along with the green power light. I assumed that indicated a problem so I quickly switched it off. I have searched on line for a manual with no success. So, is it a problem? Or should I have not chickened out and let it continue to run. If it is a problem, given that I had not even turned the pre-amp on, could it be something to do with the Thiel equalizer which is on all the time?
Any thoughts (or leads on a manual) would be appreciated since I was really looking forward to hearing how it sounds and don't want to contact the seller untill I'm sure I'm not doing something wrong.
Thanks in advance.

I have a DNA-2 and that is how it powers up. I think it is fine. The red light should go out after 10 sec. or so. It will also go into "sleep" mode with no signal present for 30 min or so.
