TRIGGER OUT

Triggers are low voltage signals used to turn on/off other compliant devices. The T 175’s three +12V DC Trigger Outputs (Trigger 1 Out, Trigger 2 Out and Trigger 3 Out) are dependent on which mode they are associated with. There are six choices where +12V DC output can be assigned and these are – Main, Zone 2, Zone 3, Zone 4, Zone 2+3+4 and Source Setup.

Main: +12V DC is available at the assigned Trigger Out when the T 175 is at powered state.

Zone 2, Zone 3, Zone 4, Zone 2+3+4: When the applicable Zone is at powered state, +1 2V DC is available at the assigned Trigger Out.

Source Setup: If Trigger Output is linked to “Source Setup”, +12V DC is available at Trigger Out whenever the particularly assigned Source is selected. Please see also separate discussion about “TRIGGER OUT” under the “Source Setup (Normal View)” section.

DELAY

The availability of +12V DC at Trigger OUT can be regulated. If it is desired that +12V DC is available without delay the moment Trigger OUT is linked to its assigned setting, set Delay to 0s. Otherwise, one can select through a delay time of 1s to 15s.

AUTO TRIGGER IN

Auto Trigger IN allows external system controllers to toggle the associated section of the T 175 from “Standby” to “On” and vice versa. When the TRIGGER switch at the rear panel is set to ON, a +12V DC input at Trigger IN will power ON the section where Trigger IN is assigned,

Main: From standby mode, the T 175 is powered ON when +12V DC is applied at Trigger IN.

Zone 2, Zone 3, Zone 4: Applicable Zone is turned ON whenever +1 2V DC is present at Trigger IN.

All: Main, Zone 2, Zone 3 and Zone 4 as described above will all be activated given a +12V DC input at Trigger IN.

WARNING

If Auto Trigger IN at Trigger Setup menu is assigned to “Main” or “All” and the TRIGGER switch is set to “AUTO” mode, the Power button in the front panel as well as the corresponding ON/OFF function keys in the HTRC 1 remote control will be disabled effectively handing this function to an external controller. Switch TRIGGER to “OFF” to maintain normal power ON/OFF function procedures.
