Speaker Wiring

All wiring should be done prior to installation and then plugged into the rear of the OCS1. Wiring is terminated at a snap-lock input connector. There are two positive and two negative terminals to accommodate daisy- chaining of speakers in a system.

Daisy-Chaining

The OCS1’s snap-lock input connector allows for easy daisy-chaining of speakers by providing a second terminal of each polarity. See the figures to the right and below for correct wiring for daisy-chaining of terminals.

Speaker Phasing

Keep the same polarity terminals wired together to ensure correct phasing. In order to provide the best possible sound, all of the speakers in a system need to be pushing out and pulling in at the same time.

If the connections to one speaker in a system are reversed from the others, that speaker’s movement will be out of sync with the other speakers.This will result in a loss of low frequency response and will effect the overall performance of the system.

Terminal Covers

The two terminal cover halves are attached to the back of the speaker using 4 screws. It is important that all 4 screws be used to mount the covers.

A slot between the two halves allows the wire to exit the speaker while protecting the connections.The cover's eyelets can be used to anchor the wire using a wire tie if desired.

If local codes require the use of a conduit for connections or strain relief of the connections, a knockout can be removed and a proper fitting installed for the particular situation.

Eyelets are provided on the terminal covers to provide a means of securing the speaker to the structure when necessary. It is important that all 4 terminal cover attaching screws be installed in this application.
