Supplies and Tools Needed
• 2-conductor 22 AWG (0.33 mm
2
) wire to connect the remote
control receiver to the power source
• 6-conductor 22 AWG (0.33 mm
2
) wire (or equivalent
combination of 2- to 4-conductor wire) to connect the receiver
to the LED speakers
• Cable ties or adhesive for mounting the receiver
• 4 gauge (3 mm) countersunk stainless-steel screws for
mounting the remote cradle (optional)
• 3 mm flat screwdriver
• Wire cutters
• Drill and drill bits for mounting the remote cradle (optional)
Mounting and Connection Considerations
When selecting a location for the remote control receiver and
making the wiring connections, observe these considerations.
• The receiver housing is not weather proof, and you must
install the receiver in a location that is not exposed to the
elements.
• You can connect a single receiver to up to 10 LED speakers
with RGB, cool white, and warm white functionality (5 pair).
You must use an additional receiver and remote control (sold
separately) to connect to additional LED speakers.
• You cannot use a single remote control with more than one
receiver.
Connecting the Remote Control Receiver
You can connect up to 10 (5 pair) of CRGBW LED speakers to
one remote control receiver.
1
Route a power wire (not included) from a 12 Vdc power
source to the location of the receiver .
2
Install the included 7.5 A fuse on the power wire.
3
Route 6-conductor wire or equivalent (not included) from
the receiver to the speakers you want to control, joining the
wire where needed to connect up to 4 speakers.
NOTE:
To avoid interference, you must not route the LED
wires near and parallel to any RCA, power, or speaker audio
cables. You should also avoid routing this cable near any
other electronic cabling on the vessel.
4
Connect the 6-conductor wire or equivalent to the CRGBW
connectors on the speakers according to the installation
instructions provided with the speakers.
5
Loosen the wire terminal screws on the bottom of the
receiver using a 3 mm flat screwdriver.
6
Connect the power and RGB speaker wires to the wire
terminals on the sides of the receiver.

Installing the Remote Control Cradle
