4. POWER Indicator

This indicator lights up blue when the internal power supply is activated and the unit operational.

5. FRONT LINE IN (RCA) JACKS

To be connected to the front channel output of the head unit.

6. INPUT MODE Switch

When the Input Mode switch is set to “FRONT” position, the input signals from head unit and the signal will 
be split and directed to the front and rear channels of this crossover network simultaneously. (This feature is 
to be engaged where the head unit has no separate Front/Rear Outputs and the fader control from head unit 
will not be able to control for fading the signal level from front to rear channels.)

7. REAR LINE IN (RCA) JACKS

To be connected to the rear channel outputs of the head unit for fading capabilities.

8. SUBWOOFER INPUT Switch

If your head unit has no subwoofer output(s) this switch should be at the “FRONT” position to allow the signal 
from the front/rear channels supply to the subwoofer input selection of the crossover.

9. SUBWOOFER LINE IN (RCA) JACKS

To be connected to the subwoofer channel output(s) of the head unit (if applicable).

*Please make sure that the “Subwoofer Input” switch is set to the “SUB” position.

10. Front Channel HIGH - PASS Frequency Control

For the selection of the front channel high-pass crossover frequency between 30Hz and 500Hz (300Hz and 
5kHz when the “Multiplier” switch is at “x10” position).

11. Rear Channel HIGH PASS Frequency Control

Same as 10 but for rear channel only.

12. Subwoofer LOW PASS Frequency Control

For the selection of the low-pass crossover frequency for the subwoofer channel from 30Hz and 500Hz.

13/14. Front/Rear FREQUENCY MULTIPLIER Switch

Positioning this switch at the “x10” range allows the selectable crossover frequency change for the front 
and/or rear channel high-pass from 30Hz - 500Hz to 300Hz - 5kHz.
