4. Configuració i instal·lació

4.1 Muntatge del Ampmés viu

Muntar el amplifier securely in a location that allows for adequate ventilation. The M5000 features redesigned end panels that raise the amplifier off the mounting surface, improving airflow for the internal fan. Ensure these panels are not obstructed and that there is sufficient space around the ampLifor per a la dissipació de calor.

4.2 Connexions de cablejat

Proper wiring is crucial for performance and safety. Refer to the specifications for recommended wire gauges.

• Connexió d'alimentació: Connect the main power cable (2 x 0 AWG recommended) from the vehicle battery (with an appropriate inline fuse) to the amplifier's +12V terminals.
• Connexió a terra: Connect the ground cable (2 x 0 AWG recommended) from the amplifier's GND terminals to a solid, clean chassis ground point. Ensure a good metal-to-metal contact.
• Encès remot: Connect the remote turn-on wire from your head unit or signal processor to the ampterminal REM del lificador. Aquest cable indica el amplificador per encendre i apagar amb el sistema d'àudio.
• RCA Audio Input: Connect the RCA audio input cables from your head unit or signal processor to the amplifier's RCA input jacks (L/R).
• Sortida de l'altaveu: Connect your subwoofer(s) to the speaker output terminals using 10 AWG speaker wire, observing correct polarity.
• ZVL Input: El amplifier includes a ZVL Linking Module Input for advanced system configurations, allowing for linking multiple ampaixecadors.

5. Funcionament del Ampmés viu

5.1 Engegada inicial i ajust de guany

After all connections are made and verified, turn on your audio system. Start with the amplifier's GAIN control at its minimum setting. Gradually increase the GAIN until the desired volume and sound quality are achieved without audible distortion. The remote control's clipping indicator is a valuable tool to prevent signal clipping, which can damage speakers.

5.2 Filter Adjustments

• Filtre SUBSONIC: This control adjusts the low-frequency cut-off (20 - 250Hz). Use it to filter out frequencies below the audible range or below the resonant frequency of your subwoofer enclosure, protecting your subwoofers from over-excursion.
• LOW-PASS Filter (LPF): This control adjusts the high-frequency cut-off (50 - 500Hz). Use it to ensure that only low frequencies are sent to your subwoofer(s), preventing them from playing mid-range or high-range sounds.

5.3 Control remot

The included remote control features an LCD voltage display and a clipping indicator. Use this to monitor your system's voltage and to visually identify when the audio signal is clipping. Adjust the gain or source volume to eliminate clipping, ensuring clean audio output and protecting your equipment.

6. Manteniment

• Mantenir el ampMantingueu el lificador net i lliure de pols i restes. Feu servir un drap suau i sec per netejar-lo.
• Ensure ventilation fins are not blocked to maintain proper cooling and prevent overheating.
• Periodically check all wiring connections for tightness and corrosion. Loose or corroded connections can lead to poor performance or damage.

7. Solució De Problemes

• Sense energia: Check power, ground, and remote connections. Verify the inline fuse is intact. Ensure the vehicle battery has sufficient charge.
• Sense so: Check RCA input connections. Verify speaker wiring polarity and connections. Ensure the head unit is powered on and outputting a signal.
• So distorsionat: Reduce the gain setting. Check for clipping using the remote indicator. Verify speaker impedance matches amplifier capabilities. Check for damaged speakers or wiring.
• Ampsobreescalfament del lificador: Assegureu-vos una ventilació adequada al voltant amplifier. Check speaker impedance to ensure it is within the amplifier's rated range. Reduce prolonged high-volume operation.
