Trigger Cable; Remote Power On; Installation - monolith M8250X User Manual

Trigger Cable

This amplifier features a low voltage trigger input, which can switch the amplifier from
standby mode into full power on mode whenever the trigger signal is detected. The trigger
signal consists of a low-current, low-voltage signal (between 3.3 and 24.0 VDC) applied to
the input, which is carried between components with a cable that terminates in a 3.5mm
TS plug.

REMOTE POWER ON

This amplifier features a trigger input, which is used to switch the amplifier between
standby mode and full power on mode. The input is a 3.5mm TS jack that accepts a voltage
level from 3.3 to 24.0 VDC. Some source devices feature a trigger output, which can be
used to trigger the amp.
If your source device does not contain a trigger output, but does have a switched AC
outlet, you can obtain a trigger adapter, which consists of an AC adapter with a 3.5mm TS
plug on the end of the cord. This adapter can then provide the necessary trigger signal
whenever the component it is plugged into is turned on.
To use the amplifier with remote power on, the Master Power switch on the rear panel
should be in the ON position and the Power Switch on the front panel also in the ON
position.
To override the remote power on feature or to use the amp without it, simply use the
Power Switch on the front panel to turn the amp on and off (standby).
