5.2 Připojení napájení

1. B+ (Positive Power): Connect the B+ terminal to the vehicle's positive battery terminal using a suitable gauge power cable. An inline fuse (not supplied) must be installed within 18 inches (45 cm) of the battery.
2. GND (zem): Connect the GND terminal to a clean, solid chassis ground point on the vehicle. Ensure the connection is free of paint and corrosion for optimal conductivity.
3. REM (Dálkové zapnutí): Connect the REM terminal to the remote turn-on output of your head unit. This signal turns the ampzapínání a vypínání zobrazovače zvuku pomocí audiosystému.

5.3 Připojení reproduktorů

Connect your subwoofer to the speaker output terminals of the amplifier. Ensure correct polarity (+ to + and - to -) for optimal sound reproduction. The PA 1 is a monoblock amplifier designed for a single subwoofer.

5.4 Input Signal Connection

The PA 1 offers both high-level and low-level (RCA) input options:

• Vstup na vysoké úrovni: Use the provided high-level cables to connect directly to your vehicle's speaker outputs. This is ideal for factory head units without RCA pre-outs. The amplifier features High-Level Input Resistance (EPS) and adjustable input voltage (1-15V or 15-40V) for optimal integration.
• Nízkoúrovňový vstup (RCA): If your head unit has RCA pre-outs, connect RCA cables from the head unit to the ampvstupní konektory RCA zařízení Liferier.

5.5 Dálkové ovládání hladiny

Connect the wired remote level control to the 'REMOTE' port on the amplifier. This allows for convenient adjustment of the subwoofer output level from your listening position.

6.2 Nastavení zisku

The GAIN control matches the amplifier's input sensitivity to the output level of your head unit. To set the gain, start with the control at its minimum position. Play a familiar piece of music at a moderate volume on your head unit. Slowly increase the GAIN control until you hear distortion, then back it off slightly until the sound is clear. This ensures maximum clean output from the ampživější.

6.3 Low-Pass Filter (LPF)

The LPF (Low-Pass Filter) allows only frequencies below the set point to pass through to the subwoofer. Adjust the LPF frequency (range: 30 Hz - 220 Hz) to blend the subwoofer's output seamlessly with your main speakers. The filter slope is adjustable between 12 dB/octave and 24 dB/octave for precise control over the frequency rolloff.

6.4 Podzvukový filtr

The SUBSONIC filter removes extremely low frequencies (range: 20 Hz - 50 Hz) that are typically inaudible and can cause your subwoofer to over-excurt, potentially leading to damage. Setting this filter helps protect your subwoofer and improves overall sound quality by focusing its output on audible bass frequencies.

6.5 Vstupní objtage Úprava

For high-level inputs, the amplifier features a switch to adjust the input voltage range (1-15V or 15-40V). Select the appropriate range based on the output voltage of your vehicle's head unit to ensure proper signal processing.

6.6 Dálkové ovládání hladiny

The included remote level control allows you to conveniently adjust the subwoofer's output volume from your driver's seat without needing to access the amplifikátor přímo.

7. Údržba

• Čištění: Nechte si amplifier clean and free from dust. Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

8. Řešení problémů

If you experience issues with your ETON PA 1 amplifier, refer to the following troubleshooting guide:

• Bez napájení / AmpŽivotní stylus se nezapíná:
  • Check the main power cable connection at the battery and ampživější.
  • Verify the ground connection is secure and free of corrosion.
  • Inspect the inline fuse near the battery; replace if blown.
  • Ensure the remote turn-on (REM) wire is connected and receiving a 12V signal from the head unit.
• Žádný zvukový výstup:
  • Confirm that the input signal cables (RCA or high-level) are securely connected to both the head unit and the ampživější.
  • Check the speaker wire connections at both the amplifier and the subwoofer for correct polarity and tightness.
  • Adjust the GAIN control; it might be set too low.
  • Ensure the head unit is powered on and producing an audio signal.
• Zkreslený zvuk:
  • Reduce the GAIN setting on the ampPokud je zesílení nastaveno příliš vysoko, může to způsobit zkreslení.
  • Check the LPF and Subsonic filter settings. Incorrect settings can lead to muddy or distorted bass.
  • Verify that the subwoofer's impedance matches the amplifier's capabilities (e.g., 1 ohm, 2 ohms, 4 ohms).
  • Ensure the input signal from the head unit is clean and not distorted.
• AmpPřehřátí:
  • Zajistěte dostatečné větrání kolem amplifier. Clear any obstructions from the cooling fins.
  • Check the speaker impedance. Running the amplifier below its minimum rated impedance can cause overheating.
  • Reduce the volume or gain settings if the amplifier is consistently overheating.
