FBQ2496 Fried?

First post out side the Post Padding Thread and first forum post in a long time.
So since the BFD Guide link seems to be broken or taken down, I need to post a question.
Received a New FBQ2496 in the mail today and inserted it into my system, after the pre and before the amp.
Used all XLR connections.
Powered it up.
The Left/Right Indicator was lit and I tapped the bypass just because I was curious about the pass through sound.
The lights went crazy and the unit started making a clicking sound like it was trying to do a feedback adjustment or something and was non responsive.
Power on off didn't change anything.
I unplugged it and let the power drain out and powered it up again.
Same thing.
The FBQ was plugged into a Panamax Power Conditioner, but I checked for crazy voltage at the plug anyway.
All was good.
Did I fry this, was it fried, or am I missing a step?
Like I said, Ive been trying to find the BFD Guide but it seems to be gone.
Thanks for input.
Ill check back soon for any replies.

Gear just gets old and dies after awhile. That is what it sounds like. RIP!
I put it back in its coffin and returned it today.
It felt cheep anyway and tech support was non existent.
I usually shy away from cheeper products for this very reason, but the internet is also filled with success stories, so I gave Behringer a shot.
Learned my lesson.
Looking at a driverack, or sticking with what I know....analog .

I missed that it was new. Many here have good luck with Behringer gear.

Anyway, it was bad and you have moved on. Good luck.
