1. Turn down the level controls

(full counterclockwise), turn off
the amplifier and unplug it from
the AC power source.

2. Remove the existing 

P.I.P.

module or panel (two screws).
For 

PIP2 amplifiers, this may

involve disconnecting the
P.I.P. from a PIP2 input adapter
(see  Figures 3.6 and 3.7). If a
PIP2 input adapter is already
present, do not remove the
ribbon cables from the
adapter. Otherwise you will
have to reconnect them in the
next step.

3.

Standard P.I.P. Amplifiers:
Align the edges of the 

P.I.P.–

EDCb in the P.I.P. card rails
and firmly push the unit in until
it is seated against the
mounting bracket (see Figure
3.5).

PIP2 Amplifiers: (Requires a
PIP2 input adaptor. Crown part
number Q43528-1.) Connect
the 

PIP2 input adapter to the

two input cables of the
amplifier (see Figure 3.6).
Notice that the 

PIP2 input

adapter should be positioned
with the 

P.I.P. edge connector

on top and facing away from
the amplifier. The 20 pin cable
(A) is connected first, then the
18 pin cable (B) is connected.
Both ribbon cables should
extend below the 

PIP2 input

adapter.

Next, insert the edge
connector of the

and remove the AC power. Don’t
touch the circuitry. Even though
the amplifier is off, there could
still be enough energy remaining
to cause electric shock.
