To be connected to the positive terminal of your vehicle battery or other co12V source.

To be wired to the vehicle's chassis ground

To be connected to the remote control wire or antenna lead of the source unit for remote
ON/OFF.

This indicator lights up when the internal switching power supply is activated and the unit
is operational.

To be connected to the front channel output of the source unit.

"IN": when the parallel input is at the "IN" position, the input signals coming in through the
front channel signal inputs are split and directed to the front and rear channels simultaneously.
(This feature is to be engaged where the source unit has no separate front, rear or subwoofer
channel outputs.)
"OUT": If the source unit has independent front and rear channel outputs, disengage the parallel
input by sliding the switch to the "OUT" position.

To be connected to the rear channel outputs of the source unit. BUT MAKE SURE THAT THE
DUAL INPUT SWITCH AT THE "OUT" POSITION.

As Input Terminal: To be connected to the subwoofer output of the source unit.
As output Terminal: To be connected to the front channel input terminal of another electronic
crossover in a multi-crossover system.

For selection of front channel high-pass crossover frequency between 160 Hz and 800 Hz (or
1.6K Hz and 8K Hz when its frequency multiplier is at "x10" position).

For selection of rear channel high-pass crossover frequency between 160 Hz and 800 Hz

Positioning this switch at the "x10" position changes, the range of selectable crossover
frequency for the front channel high-pass from 160 Hz -800 Hz to 1.6K Hz - 8K Hz.
