fi rmly push the unit in until it is 
seated against the mounting

ers*:

 (Requires 

a PIP2 input adaptor, Crown 
part number Q43528-1.) Con-
nect the PIP2 input adapter 

to the two input cables of the 
amplifi er (see Figure 2.2). 
Notice that the PIP2 input 
adapter should be positioned 
with the PIP edge connector 
on top and facing away from 
the amplifi er. The 20-pin cable 
(A) is connected fi rst, then the 
18-pin cable (B) is connected. 
Both ribbon cables should 
extend below the PIP2 input 
adapter.

2 Installation

You may need a Phillips screw-
driver to remove the existing PIP 
module or panel from your ampli-
fi er.

CAUTION: Before connecting 
this or any PIP to your ampli-
fi er, it is important to turn the 
amplifi er's level controls down, 
turn it off and remove the AC 
power. Don’t touch the circuitry. 
Even though the amplifier is 
off, there could still be enough 
energy remaining to cause elec-
tric shock.

1.  Turn down the level controls 

(full counterclockwise), turn 
off the amplifi er and unplug it 
from the AC power source.

2.  Remove the existing PIP 

module or panel (two screws). 
For 

PIP2

 amplifi ers, this 

may involve disconnecting the 
PIP from a PIP2 input adapter 
(see  Figures 2.2 and 2.3). If a 
PIP2 input adapter is already 
present, do not remove 
the ribbon cables from the
