REM (Remote Trigger)
This terminal must be connected to a sw12V source. Typically, a remote turn-on lead is provided at
the source unit that will turn on and off the amplifier in correspondence with the source. If this lead is not at
the source unit, then a sw12V supply must be used, like the ACC, +12V.
Run a minimum of 18 gauge wire from the amplifier location to the source of the sw12V lead. If possible,
route this wire on the same side of the vehicle as your power cable. Connect the source remote output to the
wire. Go back to the amplifier and cut the wire to length. Loosen the screw terminal marked REM on the amplifier.
Insert the stripped (bare) portion of the wire into the terminal and tighten the screw securely.
FUSE REQUIREMENTS
While the panel on your PowerBass amplifier may use one or more fuses, these do nothing to protect the
vehicle from a dangerous short circuit. It is absolutely vital that the main power lead to the amplifier(s) in
the system be fused within 18-inches (45cm) of the connection to the vehicle battery. The value of this fuse
(or circuit breaker) should be no greater than the sum of the fuses found on all of the equipment being con-
nected to that power wire.
NOTE: Due to space limitations, the XMA-2000D does NOT use chassis mounted protective fuses.
Therefore you must add a fuse and fuse holder (not included) rated at 150A for each XMA-2000D
installed.
AUTO TURN-ON Button
This unit features a High Level Auto Turn-on circuit that eliminates the need to run a separate Remote
Turn-on Lead to the terminal marked REM located between the amplifiers BATT+ and GND power terminals.
To engage this circuitry make sure the AUTO TURN-ON button is in the ON (out) position. Requires optional
HL-AD2 wiring Harness (see page 13). When this button is the OFF (in) position the amplifier will require a
dedicated remote wire to power the amplifier. If you are using the RCA Low Level inputs you will need to run
the Remote Turn-on wire and set the button to the OFF (in) position.
