FRONT PANEL CONNECTIONS/CONTROLS
NOTE: The step numbers listed below are referenced on the Input Wiring Diagram.
1.RCA Input Jacks - Accepts line level outputs from head units or signal processors at voltages between 150mV and 4 volts.
2.Input Gain Adjustment - Controls amplifier sensitivity and is used to match the input level of the ampli- fier to the output level of the signal source.
3.Crossover Frequency Adjustment - Adjusts the crossover point for the
4.Crossover Selection Switch - Controls the type of filter for the on- board active crossover. FLAT does not attenuate any frequencies and is for
5.Bass EQ Switch - Adds an additional 6 or 12 db of bass boost to the speaker output (4600X 12 db only).
6.Status LED - Will light BLUE to indi- cate the amplifier is on and oper- ating normally, and will be RED if the amplifier shuts down due to short circuit, or overheating detected by
NOTE: | The 2300X and 4600X amplifiers require that |
| the system remote power be cycled off and on |
| again to restart the amplifier after a protection |
| shutdown. |
| The 1500X amplifier will cycle off and automati- |
| cally turn back on when the fault condition clears. |
| The amplifier should be inspected for proper venti- |
| lation clearance on all sides of the amplifier (2- |
| inches). The speaker wiring should be inspected |
| for any shorts. |
NOTE: | The 1500X and 2300X amplifiers have one |
| combined Power/Protection (BLUE/RED) LED, |
| the 4600X amplifier has separate Power (BLUE) |
| and Protection (RED) LEDs. |
