5. Настройка і ўстаноўка

Правільная ўстаноўка мае вырашальнае значэнне для аптымальнай прадукцыйнасці. Уважліва выконвайце наступныя дзеянні.

5.1 Правадныя злучэнні

1. Power Supply (PWR SUPPLY):
   • GND: Connect to a clean, solid chassis ground point in the vehicle. Ensure good metal-to-metal contact.
   • + 12В: Connect to a constant +12V power source from the vehicle's battery, fused appropriately (e.g., 1A fuse, not included).
   • REM IN: Connect to the remote turn-on output of your head unit (if available). This will turn the link2 on/off with the head unit.
   • REM OUT: Provides a remote turn-on signal for your aftermarket ampзадымнік.
2. Speaker Input (SPK INPUT): Connect the high-level speaker wires from your factory or aftermarket head unit to these terminals. Ensure correct polarity.
   • CH1(L) + / -: Connect to the left channel speaker output wires.
   • CH2(R) + / -: Connect to the right channel speaker output wires.
   • The link2 accepts up to 40V RMS input.
3. Output (OUTPUT): Connect standard RCA cables from the link2's CH1(L) and CH2(R) outputs to the input of your aftermarket ampзадымнік.

5.2 DETECT Switch

The DETECT switch manages how the link2 turns on and off.

• ВКЛ: The link2 will turn on when it detects an audio signal on the speaker inputs. This is suitable for most factory systems that do not provide a remote turn-on wire.
• OFF (DC AUD): The link2 will turn on when it detects a DC offset on the speaker inputs. This is common in some factory systems.
• If using the REM IN terminal for turn-on, the DETECT switch setting is less critical, but it is generally recommended to set it to 'OFF' or 'DC AUD' if a dedicated remote wire is used.

5.3 Рэгуляванне ўзмацнення

The GAIN knob controls the output level of the link2. Adjust this to match the input sensitivity of your ampзадымнік.

• Start with the GAIN knob fully counter-clockwise (minimum).
• Play a test tone (e.g., 0dB, 1kHz) at about 75% of your head unit's maximum volume.
• Slowly turn the GAIN knob clockwise until the CLIP indicator light just begins to flicker, then back it off slightly until the light remains off. This ensures a clean, unclipped signal to your ampзадымнік.

5.4 Load Sense

The link2 features load detect functionality for factory systems that require resistance on the speaker outputs to remain active. This ensures the factory head unit does not shut down or reduce output when connected to the link2.

6. Інструкцыя па эксплуатацыі

Once installed and configured, the Wavtech link2 operates automatically. It will turn on and off with your head unit based on the DETECT switch setting or the remote input. The primary operational aspect is ensuring the gain is set correctly to provide a clean signal to your amplifier without clipping.

7. Тэхнічнае абслугоўванне

The Wavtech link2 requires minimal maintenance.

• Трымайце прыладу чыстай ад пылу і смецця. Выкарыстоўвайце мяккую сухую тканіну для чысткі.
