HCCA-D1200 - 1200 Watt single-channel Class D amplifier with built-in infrason- ● ic filter, with INTELLi-Q, ESP2, and remote bass. The HCCA-D1200 is capable of one-channel operation with a maximum power of 1200 Watts into 1W. HCCA-D2400 - 2400 Watt single-channel Class D amplifier with built-in infrason- ●... -
Page 4: Practice Safe Sound
PRACTICE SAFE SOUND™ Continuous exposure to sound pressure levels over 100dB may cause permanent hearing loss. High power automotive sound systems can generate sound pressure levels in excess of 130dB. When playing your system at high levels, please use hearing protection and avoid long term exposure. - Page 5 ATC Fuse - this fuse(s) protects the amplifier against internal electrical damage and is meant to protect the amplifier only. All other power connections should be fused at the source. The HCCA-D1200 has two 30-amp fuses. The HCCA-D2400 has three 40-amp fuses. The HCCA-D5000 has one inline 250-amp fuse.

Internal Crossover Configurations The crossover section of the Orion HCCA-D1200, HCCA-D2400, and HCCA-D5000 amplifiers is continuously variable and extremely flexible. In addition to the variable built-in low-pass filters, the high-pass crossover incorporates the INTELLi Q feature. This circuit is designed to optimize the performance of Orion subwoofers in all types of enclosures. -
Page 9: Low-Pass Crossover
WARNING! DO NOT set crossover frequencies lower than the speakers recommended operating range. This can cause driver failure that is not covered by the man- ufacturer's warranty. Low-Pass Crossover When the switch is to the left (OFF position), the low-pass crossover is bypassed. When the switch is in the middle (12 position), the low-pass crossover is active with a 2nd order (12dB per octave) slope. -

Page 17: Set Up And Troubleshooting
SET UP AND TROUBLESHOOTING Testing the System After you have completed the installation, you need to test the system. This will help ensure years of trouble-free operation. Please refer to the listed steps below when testing the sound of your Orion system. Step 1 Check all the wiring connections to be sure they are correct and secure. - Page 18 Step 6 Turn up the level control corresponding to the tweeter output until you hear slight distortion and turn back the level control slightly for an undistorted output. Depending on your system the midrange and tweeter output may be on the same output channels. Step 7 Fine-tune the output level between midrange and tweeters.

APPENDIX—PROGRAMMABLE FEATURES The following listing are ESP ® installer to customize or troubleshoot your system. Factory default settings are shown in bold. NOTE: The Bitwriter ® must have software version 2.3 or above to access the amplifier fea- tures menu. NOTE: A setting marked “Reserved”... - Page 22 NOTE: Use caution when adjusting or unlocking gain as restricting the range or unlock- ing the range can result in sudden increases in gain. The Valet Monitoring and Anti Theft options (below) require the ESP2 alarm to be “learned” into the amplifier. Prior to setting the valet or anti theft to Enable or On, execute the TXID routine.
