The RS232 input allows you to connect the A34.2
to a controller system. For more information
please contact Primare or visit www.primare.net.
The Trigger input allows the A34.2 to be switched
on by a preamplifier or processor. The output
allows you to daisy-chain the trigger signal to
further devices.
