Power Connector

1.Remote Turn On Output - This output is intended to be the remote turn on for the system amplifiers and has a built in delay. Two to three seconds after the 2500 receives a (+)12V turn on signal, it will send a (+)12V turn on signal to the amplifiers. This feature is designed into the 2500 to elimi- nate system turn on pops that can occur when several components turn on at the same time.

2.(+) 12V Constant Power - This is the main power input for the 2500 and must be connected to a (+)12V constant power supply. DO NOT connect this to a switched (+)12V source or the system may pop when the key is turned off.

3.Remote Turn On Input - This is the input for turning on the 2500. It should be connected to the (+)12V remote turn on output of the system head unit. The 2500 has a built in turn off delay to prevent turn-off pops. When the remote in signal from the head unit shuts off, the amplifiers will turn off immediately and the 2500 will stay on for two to three seconds before turning off. This feature is designed into the 2500 to eliminate system turn off pops that can occur when several components

turn off at the same time.

DO NOT connect this to a (+)12V constant power supply.

4.Ground - Connect this terminal to a quality ground location (preferably the chassis of the head unit) which must itself be properly grounded to the vehicle chassis. It is not recom- mended that the factory radio ground be used for any audio components.

5.Power Fuse - This fuse protects the 2500's on-board electrical compo- nents. Never replace this fuse with one of higher value or damage to the 2500 could occur and result in loss of your warranty.

6.Front Amplifier Output - These are output jacks for sending the audio signal to the front amplifier.

7.Rear Amplifier Output - These are output jacks for sending the audio signal to the rear amplifier.

8.Subwoofer Amplifier Output - These are output jacks for sending the audio signal to the subwoofer amplifier.

9.Source 2 Input - This is the input for the secondary source unit.

10.Source 1 Input - This is the input for the main source unit.
