Get Started

Input-Y Mode

The INPUT-Y mode directs the input signal form Channel 1 to both amplifier
output channels. This mode is often configured to use a Low Pass filter on
Channel 1 and a High Pass filter on Channel 2 as a crossover to drive bi-
amplified systems.
Before you get started ensure that you:
1. Connect signal source to Channel 1 only using either the XLR, ¼ Inch, or
RCA connectors. Any source connected to Channel 2 will be ignored.
2. Connect a speaker to each channel output using Speakon
or bare wire.
Follow these quick steps to configure the amplifier for INPUT-Y mode:
1. Hold the MENU/SEL button for 1 second until the LCD screen displays the
MAIN MENU.
2. Highlight AMP MODE and press the MENU/SEL button to enter the AMP
MODE menu.
3. Press the NEXT button until INPUT-Y is highlighted and press the MENU/SEL
button to select INPUT-Y mode.
4. Now the LCD screen displays the MAIN MENU. You may continue to the
CROSSOVER menu to set up filter options or scroll down to EXIT to return the
status screen which will now show the amplifier is in INPUT-Y mode.
