Connexions de cablejat
Proper wiring is crucial for optimal performance and safety. Refer to the diagrams below for correct connections.
- Power Input (+12V): Connect to the positive terminal of your car battery using a heavy-gauge power cable (4-gauge recommended). Install an inline fuse or circuit breaker within 18 inches of the battery.
- Terra (GND): Connect to a clean, unpainted metal surface of the vehicle's chassis. Ensure a solid, low-resistance connection.
- Remot (REM): Connect to the remote turn-on lead from your head unit or other signal source. This turns the ampengegueu i apagau l'activador amb el vostre sistema d'àudio.
- Entrades RCA: Connect the RCA cables from your head unit's subwoofer output to the amplifier's RCA input jacks. These nickel-plated inputs ensure efficient signal transfer and corrosion resistance.
- Sortida de l'altaveu: Connect your subwoofer speaker wires to the amplifier's speaker output terminals. Ensure correct polarity (+ to + and - to -).

Configuració inicial
Before initial power-up, ensure all connections are secure. Set the following controls to their initial positions:
- Level (Gain): Start at minimum (0.2V). This matches the output voltage de la unitat principal a la ampl'entrada del lificador.
- LPF (filtre de pas baix): Set to approximately 80Hz. This allows only low frequencies to pass to the subwoofer.
- Filtre subsònic: Set to approximately 25Hz. This filters out extremely low frequencies that can damage the subwoofer.
- EQ de baix: Set to 0dB (flat). Adjust later if more bass boost is desired.
- Fase: Set to 0 degrees. Adjust later if the bass sounds out of phase.

En funcionament
Funcionament bàsic
Un cop instal·lat i configurat correctament, el amplifier will power on automatically with your head unit. The power indicator light on the amplifier will illuminate. Play your audio source and gradually increase the volume on your head unit. Adjust the amplifier's gain control to achieve the desired volume level without distortion.
Ajust de la configuració del so
The Hifonics ZG-3200.1D features variable electronic crossovers (12dB per octave) and bass equalization for precise sound tuning. Experiment with the LPF, Subsonic, and Bass EQ controls to tailor the subwoofer's output to your listening preferences and vehicle acoustics. Adjust the phase control if the bass sounds weak or out of sync with other speakers.
