INSTALLATION
The MAQ-104 is a precision piece of electronic equipment
and with proper installation will provide years of trouble-free
operation. The following steps will help to reduce the
amount of time and effort required to install the MAQ-104
> Consult a professional installer if necessary
>
Mount the unit securely in a clean, dry location using
the four internal mounting holes. The four mounting
holes are located adjacent to the circuit board
>
Make sure the installation does not interfere with the
normal operation of the vehicle
POWER CONNECTOR
The four power wires on the MAQ-104 should be connected
as follows:
Yellow - connect to the + terminal of the
battery.
Red - Connect to the remote turn-on lead from the
source.
Black - Connect to the chassis of the vehicle
The ground
point in the car should be a piece of chassis m e t a l t h a t
is welded to the main body of the car. Painted surfaces
should be scraped or sanded before the ground lug is
bolted down, (Cover the bare metal area with paint or
grease to prevent rust.)
Blue - Connect to the remote turn-on leads of the amps
F U S E S
The battery wire (yellow) is fused on the circuit board with
an AGC 1 amp fast blow fuse. The remote out wire (blue)
is also fused on the circuit board with an AGC 1/2 amp fast
blow fuse. In order to assure continued protection, replace
only with the proper fuse values. See Figure 1 for proper
fuse locations.
PROGRAMMABLE TURN-ON DELAY
The MAC-1 04 has the capability to delay the remote turn-on
voltage to the amplifiers by a period of up to 4 seconds.
This delay period is necessary in order to allow the signal
