input adapter is already
present, do not remove the rib-
bon cables from the adapter.
Otherwise you will have to re-
connect them in the next step.
3. Standard P.I.P. Amplifiers: Align
the edges of the
P.I.P.–FTE in
the P.I.P. card rails and firmly
push the unit in until it is seated
against the mounting bracket
(see Figure 3.3).
PIP2 Amplifiers: (Requires a
PIP2 input adaptor. Crown part
number Q43528-1.) Connect
the
PIP2 input adapter to the
two input cables of the ampli-
fier (see Figure 3.4). Notice that
the
PIP2 input adapter should
be positioned with the P.I.P.
edge connector on top and fac-
ing away from the amplifier.
The 20 pin cable (A) is con-
nected first then the 18 pin cable
(B) is connected. Both ribbon
cables should extend below
the
PIP2 input adapter.
Next, insert the edge connec-
tor of the
P.I.P.–FTE into the
PIP2 input adapter (see Figure
3.5) and insert the assembly
into the
P.I.P. opening in the
back of the amplifier.
4. Secure the
P.I.P.–FTE with the
two screws and lock washers
provided. (The lock washers
are important because they
bond the
P.I.P. to the chassis
ground of the amplifier.)
5. Connect input and output wir-
ing.
6. Plug in the amplifier and turn it
on. Adjust its level controls to a
desired setting.
Do not tamper with the circuitry.
Circuit changes made by unau-
thorized personnel, or unautho-
rized circuit modifications are not
allowed.
Remember: Crown is not liable
for any damage resulting from
overdriving other components in
your sound system.
Figure 3.6 shows how to wire a
balanced and unbalanced source
or daisy-chain output to the bar-
rier block connectors.
Important: If the amplifier is used
in either Bridged-Mono or Paral-
lel-Mono mode, you must turn the
Ch. 2 amplifier level control off
(fully counterclockwise). The in-
put and level control of Ch. 2 are
not defeated in mono mode so
any signal applied to Ch. 2 will
beat against the signal in Ch. 1.
Refer to the amplifier Reference
Manual for more information about
Bridged-Mono or Parallel-Mono
modes of operation.
