GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS

Audio Input:

Unbalanced audio inputs are connected to the two RCA connectors.

The SpotDAP unit is designed to accept line level stereo audio inputs from 

various CD, stereo, or multimedia devices. The SpotDAP unit internally sums 

the stereo input. One or both of the RCA connectors can be used to input an 

audio source See page 16 for acceptable audio input levels.

Connecting Power:

Make sure the AC cord is properly plugged into the AC/DC power supply. Then 

plug the DC jack into the SpotDAP unit. Plug the AC plug into a properly 

grounded AC outlet. The Status LED indicator on the SpotDAP unit will display 

green indicating the SpotDAP unit is on and functioning. There is no power 

switch on the SpotDAP unit. The SpotDAP unit will automatically turn on if the 

AC/DC power supply is on. The LED on the AC/DC power supply will display 

green if AC power is present.
