•Connect the ground lead to the GND terminal.

•Connect the memory lead to the BAT terminal.

•Connect the ignition lead to the IGN terminal.

•Plug an FM antenna cable from the FM Distribution System into the unit’s female antenna jack.

•Install the unit in your fixture.

B.Connect a processor’s audio inputs and outputs to a 958 in the Processor/EQ Group. Then connect the processor/EQ unit’s DC power inputs to a 915X DC Expander Module.

•Connect a high quality RCA patch cable from the 958’s LEFT and RIGHT INPUT jacks to the EQ’s input.

•Use additional RCA patch cables to connect a corresponding jack pair from the LEFT and RIGHT FRONT OUTPUT to the unit’s Front output. Do the same for the unit’s Rear and Sub outputs.

•Connect the ground lead to the GND terminal.

•Connect the memory lead to the BAT terminal.

•Connect the ignition lead to the IGN terminal.

•Install the unit in your fixture.

C.Connect an amplifier’s audio signal inputs and outputs to a 942 module and DC power inputs to a 916X DC Expander Module. Four DC harness assemblies were included with each 916X.

Connect the amp’s audio inputs and speaker outputs a the 942 Module.

•Connect a high quality RCA patch cable from the same numbered 942 LEFT and RIGHT AUDIO jacks to the unit’s input.

•Use 14 - 16 gauge speaker wire to connect the unit’s Speaker outputs to a corresponding SPEAKER OUTPUT terminal plug.

Now connect the amp’s DC power inputs to the 916X connected to its 942 module.

•Connect the amp’s ground lead to the BLACK wire in the harness.

•Connect the amp’s battery lead to the YELLOW wire in the harness.

•Connect the amp’s turn-on lead to the BLUE wire in the harness.

•Plug the connector on the other end of the harness onto a numbered amp position on the 916X circuit board. No smoke and fire? Great!

Install the unit in your display fixture.

D. Install a pair of speakers in the Front Speaker Group.

Note: Factory-wired displays use two position terminal blocks marked (+) and (–) that are pre-wired to 932 Speaker Modules. You may wish to extend the wiring location for speakers from the 932 module to a convenient spot in each speaker cavity in your display.
