DC Wiring
The installer can choose to power the RXC-3080 from a +12 Volts DC
power source that can supply a minimum of 3 amps. The connector type is a
Tyco 3-640427-2 IDC connector. It has a pin spacing of 0.156 inches and is
made for 20 AWG wire. A special tool is required to make connections.
Alternatively, Genave can make a custom length cable for installation.
Warning: Make certain that the polarity of the wires is correct. Even though the unit has diode
protection for reverse voltages, damage to the RXC-3080 may occur if the polarity is reversed.
Attaching Speaker
When ordered with the 70 watt amplifier
(P/N OPT-70WAMP),
one or two speakers can be attached to
the RXC-3080. One can be directly attached to the bottom with a special reinforcing plate from Genave
or two can be supplied up to 40 feet away from the unit. The speakers are connected to the 70 watt
amplifier via connectors (J2 and J3).
Battery Backup
The battery backup consists of a seven amp hour sealed lead acid battery along with a universal input
battery charger. Input voltage for the charger can range between 100 – 240 Volts AC.
