• Occurs when battery or remote turn-on voltage drops below 10V
• Reverts to normal operation when voltage rises above 11V
+12V Remote Turn-On (Preferred)
Remote
• Controlled by a switched +12V circuit or turn-on
output of your source unit/OEM interface
DC Offset-Sensing (Automatic)
• Turns On by detecting the presence of small DC
Offset
signal in OEM audio outputs and turns Off after
the signal is removed
Signal-Sensing (Automatic)
• Turns On by detecting full-range OEM audio
Signal
signals and turns OFF after the signal is removed

Description
• Designed for high-level
(speaker) signals only
• Detects input signal from
CH. 1 (L) only
• Using DC Offset or Signal
Sensing methods will turn the
"Remote" terminal into a +12V
turn-on output.
• Designed to conserve amplifier
power and protect subwoofer
systems, without audibly de-
grading sub-bass output
