4. Opsætning og installation
Korrekt installation er afgørende for optimal ydeevne og sikkerhed. Følg disse trin omhyggeligt:
4.1. Monteringssted
Choose a mounting location that is dry, well-ventilated, and secure. Avoid mounting the amplifier directly on carpet or in enclosed spaces that restrict airflow. Ensure the heatsink has sufficient space around it for cooling.
4.2. Ledningsforbindelser
Before making any connections, disconnect the vehicle's negative battery terminal to prevent electrical shorts.

- Power (BATT+12V): Connect a heavy-gauge power cable (e.g., 4-gauge or larger) directly from the positive terminal of the vehicle's battery to the BATT+12V terminal on the amplifier. Install an in-line fuse holder within 18 inches of the battery.
- Jord (GND): Connect a heavy-gauge ground cable (same gauge as power) from the GND terminal on the amplifier to a clean, unpainted metal surface on the vehicle's chassis. Ensure a good electrical connection.
- Fjernbetjening (REM): Connect a remote turn-on wire from your source unit (head unit) to the REM terminal on the ampDenne ledning signalerer amplifier til at tænde og slukke med din hovedenhed.
- Højttaler output: Connect your speakers to the SPEAKER OUTPUT terminals. For standard 4-channel operation, connect each speaker to its respective channel (CH1, CH2, CH3, CH4). For bridged operation (to combine two channels for higher power to a single speaker, typically a subwoofer), use the designated bridged terminals as indicated on the ampSørg for korrekt polaritet (+ til + og - til -).

4.3. Lydindgangsforbindelser

- RCA-indgange: Connect RCA cables from your source unit's pre-amp outputs to the INPUT RCA jacks on the amplifier (CH1, CH2, CH3, CH4).
- Input på højt niveau: If your source unit does not have RCA outputs, you can use a high-level input adapter (not included) to connect directly to the speaker outputs of your head unit. Refer to the adapter's instructions for proper connection.
5. Betjening af Amplivligere
Når den er installeret, skal du justere ampLifier-indstillinger for optimal lydgengivelse.
5.1. Første opstart
After all connections are made and checked, reconnect the vehicle's negative battery terminal. Turn on your source unit. The POWER indicator on the amplifier should illuminate (typically green). If the PROTECT indicator (typically red) illuminates, there is an issue that needs to be addressed before proceeding.
5.2. Control Adjustments
- Input Level (Gain): Start with the gain control set to minimum. Play a familiar music track at about 75% of your head unit's maximum volume. Slowly increase the amplifier's gain control until you hear slight distortion, then back it off slightly. This matches the amplifier's input to your head unit's output.
- Crossover (X-OVER): The BXX800.4 features independent crossovers for channels 1/2 and 3/4.
- HPF (højpasfilter): Allows frequencies above the set point to pass through. Useful for full-range speakers to prevent low bass distortion.
- LPF (lavpasfilter): Allows frequencies below the set point to pass through. Essential for subwoofers.
- FULD: Disables the crossover, allowing all frequencies to pass.
- LPBP (Low-Pass Band-Pass): Combines HPF and LPF to create a band-pass filter.
- Bas EQ: Adjust this control to boost or cut bass frequencies according to your preference. Use sparingly to avoid distortion.
- Mode (2CH/4CH): Selects the input mode. Use 4CH for separate stereo inputs to all four channels, or 2CH if you are only using two RCA inputs to drive all four channels.
Experiment with these settings to achieve the desired sound balance for your specific speakers and listening preferences.
6. Vedligeholdelse
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and performance of your amplivligere:
- Rensning: Tør regelmæssigt af ampRengør ydersiden af apparatet med en blød, tør klud. Brug ikke skrappe kemikalier eller slibende rengøringsmidler.
- Ventilation: Sørg for, at amplifier's heatsink fins are free from dust and debris to maintain proper cooling.
- Forbindelser: Periodically check all power, ground, remote, and speaker connections to ensure they are secure and free from corrosion.
- Sikringer: Inspect the fuse periodically. If it is blown, replace it only with a fuse of the same type and rating.
