www.control4.com | 1-888-400-4072 | 200-00464-A 2018-03-08 DH
To connect a mono speaker or passive subwoofer:
1
Move the MONO/STEREO switch to the
MONO
position.
2
Remove the speaker connector.
3
Use 14-18 gauge stranded two-conductor loudspeaker wire, and strip
away
1
/
4
inch of insulation from each conductor.
4
Connect speaker wire to the speaker connector following the polarity
printed on the back of the amplifer below the connector and re-insert
the speaker connector into the amplifier. The speaker output cannot be
bridged.
SETTING UP THE AMPLIFIER POWER MODE
The 1-Zone High-Power Amplifier can be set up to automatically power
on when needed. The POWER MODE switch allows the amplifier to be
powered on at all times, turned on with a 12V trigger, or turned on when an
audio signal is present at the audio input.
To set up the amplifier to be always on:
1
Slide the POWER MODE switch to
ON
.
In this mode, the amplifier will be always on unless the power cord is
unplugged or the power switch by the power cord is toggled off.
To set up the amplifier to be controlled by a 12V trigger:
1
Slide the POWER MODE switch to
12V
.
2
Connect the 12V trigger cable from the trigger device to
12V TRIGGER
IN
.
3
(Optional) Connect
12V TRIGGER OUT
to another amplifier to link their
power control together.
In this mode, the amplifier will turn on when a 12V signal is present on
the 12V Trigger Input jack. This 12V trigger input can be wired to the 12V
trigger output of a Triad audio matrix switch or a relay and contact on a
Control4 controller. See the Control4 Knowledgebase for more details.
To set up the amplifier to be turned on by the audio sensing:
1
Slide the POWER MODE switch to
AUDIO
.
In this mode, the amplifier will turn on when an audio signal is sensed on
the audio input.
TROUBLESHOOTING
RESETTING THE AMPLIFIER
• Power reset
—Remove the power cord and replace the power cord to
power cycle the device.
NOTE:
If the amplifier will not turn on, check the Power Mode
switch. Try changing the Power Mode switch to
ON.
