Wiring Audio to the Amplifier Board Audio is brought over from the RF100 at JP2 to the Amplifier Board at JP3. Audio comes back out of the Amplifier Board on JP7 and can be connected to an additional DS100. To wire audio to the DS100: Ensure all audio potentiometers are set to the max by default on both the RF100 and DS100s by turning the post of the potentiometer all the way up (fully clockwise).
Ensure all audio potentiometers are set to the max by default by turning the post of the potentiometer all the way up (fully clockwise). Set the jumper JP5 on the DS100 Amplifier Board from the 10 V to 25 V S position to make it compatible with the 300VSC audio output.
