TRIGGERS (INPUT & OUTPUT)
These 3.5mm (.125”) mini-jacks receive (input) a 5-24V AC/DC trigger signal and deliver (output) the same trigger signal
(throughput) from an upstream component (preamplifier, surround sound processor (SSP) such as the Anthem AVM 20,
or system controller etc.).
D
ON MODES
With this three-way slide switch, you may select the way in which your amplifier is turned ON and/or OFF:
•
TRIGGER: (Power button must be depressed for this mode)
This feature will allow your amplifier to be turned on or off remotely via the Trigger described above (C).
•
MANUAL:
When in this position, the amplifier can only be turned ON/OFF via the power button on the front panel (B).
•
AUTO: (Power button must be depressed for this mode)
This innovative feature eliminates the need for a manually operated power button. AUTO ON simply turns the amplifier on
whenever there is an input signal on any one of the channels. If no input signal is sensed after a period of time, the
amplifier will switch off automatically.
E
DETACHABLE AC POWER CORD SOCKET
Plug the Detachable Power Cord into this socket. The PVA 7 Amplifier is factory built for the correct operating voltage for the
area in which it is sold (see shipping box for voltage setting).
F
SINGLE-ENDED (UNBALANCED) RCA INPUT
This input accepts unbalanced RCA input connections from an external preamp or SSP unit, such as the Anthem
AVM 20. Connect the line level inputs to the L, LS, LR, C, RR, RS or R, RCA connectors.
G
SPEAKER CONNECTION POSTS
Each custom 5-way binding post accepts a connection from one speaker. The positive/red (+) connection on the speaker
is to be made to the positive/red (+) binding post on the same amplifier channel. As well, the negative/black (–)
connection on the speaker is to be made to the negative/black (–) binding post on the appropriate amplifier channel.
Connect the L, LS, LR, C, RR, RS or R speakers to the appropriate set of binding posts.
Be careful not to overtighten the binding posts.
