[. . . ] Connect the external amplifier's speaker output to your subwoofer. If you prefer to use your subwoofer's internal crossover then connect the Preamplifier Tuner's full range outputs to the sub's input and connect your power amplifier or powered speaker's to the sub's high-pass output. 10 EF USE FUSE R FUSE FUS FUS EF ANTENNA CONNECTIONS The FM jack is a standard screw on F-type connector. Strip ¼ inch of insulation off your AM antenna wires and insert one wire end into each hole while holding the tabs down. Release the tabs to lock in the AM antenna wires. FM antenna FM Antenna Input from Indoor/Outdoor Antenna, Cable Box, etc. TUNER AM antenna AM Antenna Input from Loop Antenna IR Output - The Preamplifier has the capability to be controlled by an Infrared Data/Signal (see below). IR Data detected from the Preamplifiers front panel, or the rear panel Data/Signal, are electrically ORed together and sent out this IR Output mini-jack. The plug must be wired as tip (+) and the long barrel section (-). This connector may be used as an IR blaster for further system control and interface applications. CONTROL I/O Control I/O - These connections are for use when interfacing other equipment such as Keypads, an external amplifier, projection screen, etc. The PT5 allows connections to zone keypad/sensors via a 5 pin plug-in Phoenix connector. +12V Ground RS232 Xmit Data In CTRL Out - +12V Power to Keypad or IR Sensor - Common Ground - RS232 One Way Transmit - Infrared Data/Signal - 12V Programmable Control Out Note - The control output is capable of sourcing a maximum of 12VDC @200 mA. Check to see that the source you are connecting to the control out requires 200 mA or less current. Control Out (CTRL Out) - The factory default CTRL Out settings is HEADPHONE - On (+12 VDC) when the unit is on and not in Headphone mode, Off when the unit is off or in Headphone Mode. This mode may be used for controlling external amplifiers or powered sub woofers in an audio zone. The other Control Out (CTRL Out) option settings are OFF, POWER and RS232. The Control I/O CTRL Out pin is programmable for each source in your system (see "Advanced Setup"). However, the Preamplifier Tuner provides the following factory preprogrammed setup that should serve for most standard system applications. Connect your control cable to the Preamplifier using a mono 3. 5 mm mini-jack shown at left. The plug must be wired as tip (+) and the long barrel section (-). WARNING - Not all manufacturers adhere to the +12 VDC control specification. Check to see if your sources control inputs are +12 VDC compatible. Do not connect your Preamplifier control outputs to a device with control inputs rated less than 12 VDC before checking compatibility with the manufacturer as damage to your source may result. 12 V Control Out To Control In on B&K Amplifier SERIAL # RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT OPEN CAUTION 2 0 0 m A To t a l Max Current VOLTAGE RS-232 IR OUTPUT To B&K In-Wall Keypad OR To IR Repeater D ATA I N +12V GROUND AC LINE CTRL OUT ~ RS232 TRANSMIT 11 OPERATION The following outlines the normal day-to-day operation of your Preamplifier Tuner from the supplied IR remote controller or directly from your Preamplifier Tuner's front panel. POWER ON/OFF The main power switch on the front panel of your Preamplifier Tuner must be on for the Preamplifier Tuner to operate. When this switch is off all power is removed from your Preamplifier Tuner. This prevents turning it back on with the remote control. You can use the main power switch for normal day to day operation but we suggest you use the sleep function instead so that the Preamplifier Tuner can be turned on and off from the remote. After turning on the main power you must wait approximately 10 seconds while your Preamplifier Tuner restores its internal memory and initializes various parameters. You may want to turn off the main power switch when your Preamplifier Tuner will be idle for extended periods of time or during periods of power line fluctuations.
