FRONT PANEL CONNECTIONS/STATUS LED

1.RCA Input Jacks - Accepts line level outputs from head units or signal processors at voltages between 150mV and 8 volts.

2.RCA Output Jacks - These pass through RCA jacks can be used to send a signal to a second amplifier. On four, five, and six channel ampli- fiers it is the summed stereo output

of the one through four-channel inputs of the amplifier.

3.Status LED - Lights GREEN to indi- cate the amplifier is on and oper- ating normally, and will be off if the amplifier shuts down due to short circuit, DC offset, or overheating detected by the on-board protection circuitry.

REAR PANEL CONNECTIONS

1.Speaker Out Terminals - Connect the speakers to these terminals. (Refer to the Speaker Connection section of this guide.)

2.Remote Turn On - This terminal turns on the amplifier when (+) 12 volt is applied to it. Connect it to the remote turn on lead of the head unit or signal source. If a (+) 12 voltremote turn lead is not avail- able, a Remote Power Adapter

(P/N #55000) can be used to supply a remote turn on signal. DO NOT connect this terminal to constant (+) 12 volt.

3.Power Fuses - These fuse(s) protect the amplifier against internal elec- trical damage and are meant to protect the amplifier only. All other power connections should be fused at the source.
