8CONNECTING THE A 52 TO TRIGGER ANOTHER COMPONENT

Whenever the A 52 is turned on either manually or automatically, there is 12 Vdc present at its own DC Trigger Out jack so it can trigger additional amplifiers or other components on and off.

2.5 mm sub-mini plug

What You’ll Need:

A wire with a 2.5 mm sub-mini plug on each end (in addition to the wire provided with the A 52)

A component that can be triggered with an external +9 Vdc to +12 Vdc source. The A 52 DC trigger output provides up to 150 mA of current

Before Connecting

Remove power to all the components in your audio system.

YOU SHOULD KNOW

If the device you want your A 52 to control doesn’t have a 2.5 mm trigger output connector, you can cut one plug off the cable and terminate the end as required. The lead with the stripe is positive and the lead without the stripe is negative.
