IMPORTANT: PLEASE REFER TO THE "SYSTEM CONNECTION DIAGRAMS"
ON PAGES 23-26 FOR MORE INFORMATION ON USING THE INPUT /
OUTPUT CONNECTIONS.
"Output to Slave" Connector
If you are operating more than one Fathom IWSv2 subwoofer in one home
theater system, you will designate one Fathom IWSv2 as the Master (see page
19), and then feed signal from it to the remaining "Slave" Fathom IWSv2s via
this balanced XLR output. The "Output to Slave" cable can be connected to the
"Left or Mono" balanced XLR input on the next Fathom IWSv2. When a Fathom
IWSv2 is in "Slave" Mode, its "Output to Slave" connection can be used to pass
signal to further Fathom IWSv2s operating in "Slave" mode.
The "Output to Slave" connector is designed to be used as follows:
1) From the "Master" Fathom IWSv2's "Output to Slave" connector to the first
"Slave" Fathom IWSv2's "Left or Mono" XLR balanced input.
2) From the first "Slave" Fathom IWSv2's "Output to Slave" connector to the
second "Slave" Fathom IWSv2's "Left or Mono" XLR balanced input.
3) From the second "Slave" Fathom IWSv2's "Output to Slave" connector to
the third "Slave" Fathom IWSv2's "Left or Mono" XLR balanced input. Etc,
etc. (up to ten Fathom IWSv2s may be connected in this configuration).
Appropriate balanced cables with XLR terminations are available from
your JL Audio dealer and are not included with the Fathom IWSv2.
Technical Notes:
• The "Output to Slave" signal carries any signal processing selected on the
Master Fathom IWSv2 (including the Master Level setting and D.A.R.O.
processing) to further Fathom IWSv2s operating in "Slave" mode.
• From Fathom IWSv2s operating in "Slave" mode, the "Output to Slave"
signal is an exact, buffered replica of the balanced input signal, making this
method of signal distribution preferable to using
Y-adapters or splitters.
• Use only shielded, connection cables with high quality
XLR connectors for Master/Slave connection. Never use unbalanced cables
with adaptors.
"12V Turn-On" Switch
This switch is used to enable the Fathom IWSv2 amp's 12V Trigger
functionality. Refer to 12V Trigger on page 12 for more info. To activate,
flip this switch to the "On" position with the front panel "Power" switch set
to the "auto" position.
12V Trigger
Equipped with dual mini jacks, the Fathom IWSv2 amp can be activated using
a 12V trigger signal (Input) and turn on another component (or additional Fathom
IWSv2 amps) any time the Fathom IWSv2 amp is on (Output). Both jacks accept
standard 1/8-inch (3.5 mm) plugs (not supplied), with +12V connected to the "tip"
conductor and Ground connected to the ring and/or sleeve conductor(s). Refer to
12V Trigger on page 12 for more info.
