Remote Gain Operation

Remote Gain Operation

NOTE: Do not use the Remote Gain control when you have an expanded system installed (see Line Ouput Configurations). The Slave amplifier(s) gain will not be controlled.

The remote gain port provides easy remote access to the internal gain structure of the HCCA power amplifier. The HP-RB1 plugs into the amplifier via the 1/8" mini jack plug. The HP-RB1 can be installed in the front of the vehicle to control the amplifier gain level. The HP-RB1 can be used as a bass level control when used on an amplifier dedicated to subwoofers.

AMPLIFIER WIRING

Power Connections for the HCCA-D1200, and HCCA-D2400

Orion HCCA-D1200 Fuse Size: 2 x 30 AMP ATC.

Orion HCCA-D2400 Fuse Size: 3 x 40 AMP ATC.

Power connections accept up to 4 AWG wire.

4 AWG power and ground wire recommended for optimal performance.

Connect 12V+ to the battery through fuse holder. This connection provides +12V main power to the amplifier.

Power wire must be fused no more than 18" from battery.

Ground amplifier to a good chassis ground as close as possible to the amplifier.

Connect REM terminal to remote turn-on lead from source unit. This connection provides +12V power to turn-on the amplifier.

Add extra ground wire between the negative terminal of the battery and the chassis.

Power Connections for the HCCA-D5000

Orion HCCA-D5000 Fuse Size: inline 250 AMP.

Power connections accept up to 4 AWG wire.

Dual 4 AWG power and ground wire required for proper performance.

Connect 12V+ to the battery through power distribution and fuse holder. This connection provides +12V main power to the amplifier.

Power wires must be fused no more than 18" from battery.

Terminate both grounds of the amplifier to a good chassis ground as close as pos- sible to the amplifier.

Connect REM terminal to remote turn-on lead from source unit. This connection provides +12V power to turn-on the amplifier.

Add an extra ground wire between the negative terminal of the battery and the chassis. Either dual 4 AWG or single 1/0 AWG is recommended.

NOTE: The addition of a ground wire from the battery to the chassis of the vehicle improves the ability of the battery to supply power to the amplifier. This is recom- mended because the current delivery of the factory electrical system was designed only to accommodate electronics supplied by the auto manufacturer.

WARNING! The Orion HCCA-D5000 has two separate four-gauge power and ground inputs. Both pairs of connections must use 4 AWG power wire for proper operation. Failure to do this may damage the amplifier and is not covered under warranty. The HCCA-D5000 cannot be operated in a bridge or strapped configuration, attempting to do so will damage the amplifier.
