5.1 Channel Configuration DIP Switch

channel's six-position DIP switch sets the 80Hz 2nd
order hipass filter, output clip limiter, amplifier gain,
and output mode for that channel.
In the example to the right, the DIP switch is set as
follows:
Switch #6 - 80Hz high pass filter is OFF (switch down)
Switch #5 - clip limiter is ON (switch up)
Switch #4 3 - gain is 1.4V (both switches up)
&
Switch #2 1 - output mode is low impedance (both switches down)
&
Note: The preferred gain setting of 1.4V means that a 1.4V input will drive the amp to
full output in any output mode. The other three gain settings will apply their respective
amplifier gain regardless of output mode, so the actual input voltage required to fully drive
the amp will vary based on the selected output mode.

5.2 Euroblock Input Jack

wire the (+) input signal to the (+) Euroblock pin and the shield to (-) and (G). Do not leave
the (-) input pin unconnected.

5.3 Remote DC Level Control

remote DC level control. The example to the right illustrates a typical DC level control application.
There is no limit to wire length, but do not use any other ground source. If multiple remote DC level
controls are used for different channels, the same ground and V+ sources can be shared. This feature can be disabled in software

5.4 Channel Attenuators

DC fader level controls and software control surface faders if the amp is networked. When an input attenuator is turned fully off,
its red clip/mute LED turns on and stays on to indicate mute status for that channel. The attenuators can be disabled, along with the
power switch, using the factory reset switch as shown in

5.5 Bridge Mode Switch

power to a single speaker load. Bridge mode uses only the odd numbered input channel and level control, disabling the even numbered
input. Speaker outputs for bridge mode must be wired according to the pin labeling found below the Euroblock speaker connnector. The
bridge mode switch button can be removed for added security by pulling it straight off.

5.6 Euroblock Outputs

5.7 AC Mains Connector

auto-detects voltage from 100-240VAC. WARNING: Do not remove or lift the mains connector ground.
