If the AVA7 is used with another com-
ponent (other than the AV1) that uses a
trigger for automatic turn-on and turn-
off, make sure the other component’s
output is between 3 and 24 volts DC.
Connect the trigger output jack on the
other component to the 1/8" (3.5mm)
Trigger Input Jack
¶
on the AVA7
using one of the cables included with
the AVA7. Whenever a power-on trig-
ger is used to operate the AVA7, make
sure that the AVA7’s
Main Switch
§
and
Power Switch
¡
are both in the
On
position. Since the front-panel
Power Switch
¡
on the AVA7 is a low-
throw switch, sometimes it may be dif-
ficult to confirm whether this switch
is in the
On
or
Standby
position. To
ensure that this switch is in the
On
position, disconnect the trigger input
cable from the AVA7, make sure the
Main Switch
§
is still on, and then
press the
Power Switch
¡
until its
LED
Standby Indicator
™
glows blue.
Then reconnect the trigger cable to the
AVA7
Trigger Input
¶
. If the Trigger
source (JBL Performance AV1 or
another source unit featuring power-on
trigger) is on, the AVA7’s LED
Standby
Indicator
™
will continue to glow blue.
If the Trigger source is off or in standby,
the AVA7 will also go into standby and
its LED
Standby Indicator
™
will turn
red. Once this setup is complete, the
AVA7 will automatically turn on and off
along with the source unit.
If you wish to have other components
in your system turn on via trigger, make
sure they are compatible with the 1/8"
(3.5mm) 12-volt DC
Trigger Output Jack
¶
on the AVA7. If they are, you may
connect the
Trigger Output Jack
¶
to
the first component’s trigger input using
one of the cables included with the
AVA7, and then connect all compo-
nents in daisy-chain fashion. 12V DC
voltage at the AVA7
Trigger Output
Jack
¶
becomes available approxi-
mately two seconds after the AVA7
receives a 12V DC trigger input signal.
This is done to prevent high-current
draw on your home’s AC mains supply,
which could be caused by multiple
high-power audio components turning
on at the same time.
8. AC Inlet
Your AVA7 is shipped with an IEC-type
removable power cord that mates with
the AC inlet on the rear panel. To ensure
proper operation, use the supplied
power cord. This amplifier is
NOT a
multivoltage unit
; using a power cord
that is not compatible with a 120V, 60Hz
AC wall receptacle will void the warranty.
