REAR PANEL FEATURES

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 6500 receives a (+)12V turn on signal it will send a (+)12V turn on signal to the amplifiers. This feature is designed into the 6500 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 6500 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 6500 and system amplifiers. It should be connected to the (+) 12V remote turn on output of the system head unit. The 6500 has a built in turn off delay to prevent turn-off pops. When the remote turn on signal from the head unit shuts off, the amplifiers will turn off immediately and the 6500 will stay on for five seconds before turning off. This feature is designed into the 6500 to eliminate system turn off pops

that can occur when several compo- nents 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 after market audio components.

5.Power Fuse - This fuse protects the 6500's on-board electrical compo- nents. Never replace this fuse with one of higher value or damage to the 6500 could occur and result in loss of your warranty.

6.Illumination Switch - This switch changes the front panel back- lighting from BLUE to GREEN to match the vehicle dash or radio backlighting.

7.High Pass Output Switch - This switch controls whether the front and rear outputs are full range or crossed over as high pass outputs to the amplifiers. When set to high pass output the front and rear output crossovers are separately variable from 30 to 400Hz, by using the high pass frequency control knob (#5) on the front panel.
