4.1 Montering

Mount the BX-22i securely in a dry location, away from excessive heat or moisture. Ensure adequate ventilation around the unit.

4.2 Ledningsforbindelser

  1. Jordforbindelse (GND): Connect the GND terminal to a clean, chassis ground point in your vehicle. Ensure a solid, low-resistance connection.
  2. 12V Power Connection (12V): Connect the 12V terminal directly to the positive terminal of your vehicle's battery using a fused power cable. The fuse should be located within 18 inches of the battery.
  3. Remote Turn-On Connection (REMOTE IN): Connect the REMOTE IN terminal to the remote turn-on output of your head unit or another switched 12V source. This will turn the BX-22i on and off with your audio system.
  4. Lydindgang (INDGANG): Connect the RCA outputs from your head unit or signal processor to the INPUT RCAs on the BX-22i.
  5. Audio Output (OUTPUT): Connect the OUTPUT RCAs of the BX-22i to the RCA inputs of your amplivligere.
  6. Fjernbetjening til bas: Connect the provided remote bass control unit to the REMOTE port on the BX-22i using the supplied cable.

5. Betjening

Once installed, adjust the controls for optimal bass performance.

5.1 Indledende opstart

Turn on your audio system. The POWER LED on the BX-22i should illuminate, indicating it is receiving power.

5.2 Adjusting Input Level

Start with the INPUT LEVEL CONTROL set to its minimum position. Play a familiar piece of music. Slowly increase the INPUT LEVEL CONTROL until the bass sounds clear and powerful without distortion. If distortion occurs, reduce the level slightly.

5.3 Adjusting Bass Output

Use the BASS control to fine-tune the desired amount of bass reconstruction. Adjust this to your personal preference, ensuring the bass remains tight and defined.

5.4 Setting Subsonic Filter

The SUBSONIC control helps protect your subwoofers by filtering out frequencies below their usable range. Set this control to a frequency just below your subwoofer's lowest effective frequency. Common settings are between 25Hz and 40Hz. Refer to your subwoofer's specifications for guidance.

5.5 Ground Isolation Switch

If you experience alternator whine or other ground loop noise, try adjusting the GROUND ISOLATION switch. Start with 'GND', then try 'ISO', and finally '200' to see which setting eliminates the noise most effectively.

5.6 Fjernbetjening til bas

The remote bass control allows for convenient adjustment of the bass level from your listening position. Use this to make real-time adjustments to the bass output.
