Low Voltage Triggers
The P-16 features three low voltage trigger outputs: two 9-pin “D”
type connectors (these are not RS-232) and one removable five-pin
screw terminal connector. The top 9-pin “D” connector provides a
single ground pin and six pins that go to +12VDC individually with
respect to zones 1-6. Likewise, the bottom 9-pin “D” connector pro-
vides a single ground pin and six pins that to go +12VDC for zones 7-
12. These zone triggers can connect directly to the PTM-1225 or
PTM-1260 Twelve Channel Power Amplifiers. These amplifiers uti-
lize the zone triggers to mute and unmute zones as they are en-
gaged by the P-16. A standard straight-through 9-Pin “D” male-to-
male cable can be used (both PTM-1225 and PTM-1260 Power
Amplifiers come with this cable).
The removable 5-pin screw terminal connector is used to provide a
low voltage trigger for zones 13-16. Here, pin 1 is ground (-), pin 2
engages (+12VDC) with zone 13, pin 3 engages with zone 14,. pin 4
engages with zone 15, and pin 5 engages with zone 16. ADA pro-
vides the ACC-3 Low Voltage Triggered AC Controller which can be
used to turn on any size ADA power amplifier.
Power Amplifier Options
Two ADA power amplifiers
offer easy connections di-
rectly to the P-16 Module.
The PTM-1225 will provide
medium power to up to six
zones (25W/Ch @ 8
Ω
, 45W/
Ch @ 4
Ω
, stable to 2
Ω
).
The PTM-1260 will provide
high power to up to six zones
(Unbridged - 85W/Ch @ 8
Ω
,
135W/Ch @ 4
Ω
, stable to
2
Ω
). You can opt to use two
PTM-1225s, one PTM-1225
and one PTM-1260, or two
PTM-1260s.
The PTM-1260 can also be
set so that channel pairs are
bridged, from 12 to 10, 8, or
6 channels. In bridged mode
power increases to 350W/Ch
into 4
Ω
. In bridged mode, the
PTM-1260 is stable to 4
Ω
.
