Nv-P2100 200-Watt Auxiliary Amplifier - Nuvo NV-E6GMS Installation Manual

NV-P2100 200-Watt Auxiliary Amplifier (Fig. 55)
The P2100 is specifically designed for use with the NuVo
Systems' lineouts. It can be used with either the fixed or
variable lineouts available for zones 1 and 2 on the Essentia
amplifier. The connection is made using either a 1/8"
(3.5mm) to 1/8" stereo patch cable or a 1/8" stereo to RCA
patch cable.
There are two methods for triggering the P2100 from the
Essentia outputs. One is to set the POWER MODE switch on
the P2100 to AUDIO (extreme left) position and allow an
incoming audio signal from the Essentia System to turn on
the P2100. The second method is to place the POWER MODE
switch in the AC/DC (extreme right) position. This will turn
on the P2100 when the Essentia is on.
An additional feature of Essentia is Zone-Specific Triggers
that will trigger the P2100 only when that zone is turned on.
Utilizing the voltage trigger requires a mono 1/8" (3.5mm)
patch cable from either the System ON output on the
Essentia to the P2100 Voltage trigger input, or from the
specific Zone Trigger on the Essentia to the Voltage Trigger
on the P2100, as shown in Fig. 55.
RS232 Interface
The RS232 port allows external two-way communication with
the Essentia System. Home automation systems can be set
up to operate Essentia. The RS232 protocol document is
available for download from NuVo's website Prozone at
www.nuvotechnologies.com/prozone.
