PAC LP72 LOC Pro 2-kanals line-out konverter brugsanvisning

Indledning

The PAC LP72 L.O.C. Pro 2-Channel Line-Out Converter is designed to integrate aftermarket amplifiers into vehicle audio systems. It facilitates the connection of an amplifier to either an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) radio, retaining the factory amplified system, or to an aftermarket system that lacks RCA outputs. The LP72 also features an automatic remote turn-on circuit for amplifiers, eliminating the need for a separate remote wire connection from the head unit.

This manual provides detailed instructions for the proper installation and operation of your LP72 unit.

Nøglefunktioner

• Built-in Remote Turn-On Circuit: Automatically generates an amplifier remote turn-on signal.
• High and Low-Level Input Acceptance: Compatible with both speaker-level (high-level) and RCA (low-level) audio signals.
• Single Stereo Gain Controls: Precision dials for independent left and right channel level matching, ensuring optimal audio output.
• Ultra-Compact Housing: Designed for easy installation in confined spaces, achieved by recessing transformers into the circuit board.
• Højeffekthåndtering: Conservatively rated at 55 watts per channel.
• Bred frekvensrespons: Full 20Hz to 20kHz frequency response (+/- 1.5 dB).
• Differential Inputs: Allows for integration into OEM premium audio systems, such as BOSE.
• Single Harness Design: Forenkler ledningsforbindelser.
• Alsidig montering: Includes provisions for wire-tie or screw mounting.

Opsætning og installation

Korrekt installation er afgørende for optimal ydeevne. Det anbefales, at installationen udføres af en kvalificeret fagmand.

Ledningsforbindelser

1. Strømtilslutning: Connect the red wire to a switched 12V power source.
2. Jordforbindelse: Connect the black wire to a solid chassis ground point.
3. Fjernudgang: The blue wire provides the remote turn-on signal for your aftermarket amplifier. Connect this to the amplifier's remote input terminal.
4. High-Level Input (Speaker Wires): If connecting to speaker outputs from an OEM radio or amplifier, connect the vehicle's speaker wires to the corresponding input wires on the LP72 harness (e.g., Left Front +, Left Front -, Right Front +, Right Front -). Ensure correct polarity.
5. Low-Level Output (RCA): Connect the RCA outputs from the LP72 to the RCA inputs of your aftermarket amplivligere.

The LP72's differential inputs are designed to work effectively with various OEM systems, including those with premium audio setups like BOSE, minimizing noise and ensuring signal integrity.

Montering

The compact design of the LP72 allows for flexible mounting options. Secure the unit using wire-ties or screws in a location that is dry, free from excessive heat, and away from potential interference sources. Ensure adequate ventilation.

Betjeningsvejledning

Forstærkningsjustering

The LP72 features precision stereo gain dials to match the output level of the converter to the input sensitivity of your aftermarket amplifier. This ensures optimal system performance and prevents distortion.

1. Start with the gain controls on the LP72 set to their minimum position.
2. Turn your vehicle's head unit volume to about 75% of its maximum level.
3. Slowly increase the gain controls on the LP72 until you hear a slight distortion, then back off slightly until the sound is clear.
4. Adjust the gain controls on your aftermarket amplifier according to its manufacturer's instructions, ensuring no distortion at desired listening levels.

Korrekt gevinst staging is essential for achieving clear, powerful audio without introducing unwanted noise or clipping.

Fejlfinding

• Ingen lydoutput:
  • Kontroller, at alle strøm- og jordforbindelser er sikre.
  • Check that the remote turn-on wire is properly connected to the amplifier og at den amplifier is powering on.
  • Ensure speaker input wires are correctly connected to the LP72 and RCA outputs are connected to the amplivligere.
  • Confirm head unit volume is up and not muted.
• Forvrænget lyd:
  • Reduce the gain settings on the LP72 and/or the amplivligere.
  • Ensure the head unit volume is not excessively high, causing distortion before the signal reaches the LP72.
• Engine Whine or Noise:
  • Ensure the ground connection for the LP72 and amplifier is solid and free from paint or corrosion.
  • Route power cables away from audio signal cables to prevent interference.
  • Check for loose connections in the audio path.
  • The LP72's differential inputs are designed to minimize noise; however, external factors can still introduce interference.
• AmpLifier tænder ikke:
  • Verify the blue remote wire from the LP72 is connected to the ampliferens fjernindgang.
  • Ensure the LP72 is receiving power and ground.
  • Confirm the head unit is on and producing an audio signal for the LP72 to detect and generate the remote signal.
