Have 1723 2s will not auto turn on which is selected

The ARENDAL 1723 2S may not automatically turn on when selected if the Auto Turn-on mode or the 12V Trigger mode is not properly configured. There are 4 different auto turn-on modes, and you need to select the correct input (RCA or XLR) based on your connection. If using a stereo source, both RCA 1 & 2 or XLR 1 & 2 should be selected. If the subwoofer is used in two systems, the Dual Source turn-on control must also be configured correctly.

Page 40 It is adjustable from 6dB/Oct to 24dB/Oct with 6dB increments. So, if you already set the LPF frequency to 100Hz, then setting the LPF Slope to 12dB/Oct will ensure that the signal has 12dB lower output at one octave above 100Hz (one octave above 100Hz is 200Hz).
