NV-P2100 200-Watt Auxiliary Amplifier (fig. 18)

The P2100 is specifically designed for use with the NuVo Systems' lineouts. It can be used with either the fixed or variable lineouts on the Grand Concerto amplifier. The connection is made using either a 1/8” to 1/8” stereo patch cable or a 1/8” stereo to RCA patch cable.

There are two methods for triggering the P2100 from the Grand Concerto outputs. One is to set the POWER MODE switch on the P2100 to AUDIO (extreme left) position and allow an incoming audio signal from the Grand Concerto System to turn on the P2100. The second method is to place the POWER MODE switch in the AC/DC (extreme right) position. This will turn on the P2100 when the Grand Concerto is on.

An additional feature of Grand Concerto is Zone-Specific Triggers that will trigger the P2100 only when that zone is turned on. Utilizing the voltage trigger requires a mono 1/8” patch cable from either the System ON output on the Grand Concerto to the P2100 Voltage trigger input, or from the specific Zone Trigger on the Grand Concerto to the Voltage Trigger on the P2100, as shown in Fig. 18.

RS232 Interface

The RS232 port allows external two-way communication with the Grand Concerto System. Home automation systems such as Crestron and AMX can be set up to operate Grand Concerto. The RS232 addendum contained in this manual details the necessary code protocol to operate every aspect of the Grand Concerto System.
