The Red wire is the turn-on wire for the DSP and should go to the blue turn-on wire coming
from the head unit.
NOTE:
If you are using speaker level inputs the DSP-Z8 IV will automatically turn
on when the factory stereo system turns on. You do not need the turn-on wire.
The Blue wire of the DSP-Z8 IV is the +12v output wire to turn on your amplifier.
Important note
: To avoid noise caused by equipment turn-on it is important that you use only the
blue wire from the DSP-Z8 IV to turn on your amplifiers. If you are using multiple amplifiers it is best
to use a relay between the blue DSP +12v wire and the amplifiers.
* For safety, when turning on multiple amplifiers and other products from a single turn-on wire you
should use a Bosch relay as below
