Installation Notes
• High or low impedance speaker connection options can be
selected independently for each output channel via the amplifier
configuration web interface.
• Analogue input sensitivity can be adjusted independently for
each channel via the amplifier configuration web interface.
• S/PDI F digital audio 1/0 routing can be configured via the
amplifier configuration web interface.
Wireless Network Control Connection
A mobile, laptop or desktop device with WiFi functionality and a
web browser is required.
Follow the steps below.
1. Connect the Power Zone Connect amplifier to mains power
using the supplied mains cable and wait for the front panel WiFi
indicator to illuminate green.
2. Use a mp,bile, laptop or desktop device to search for available
WiFi networks. Connect to,
'Blaze
(product serial number)' using
the password,
'password'.
The amplifier serial number can be
found on its rear panel.
3. Open a mobile, laptop or desktop device web browser and enter
the following IP address: 192.168.4.1. The amplifier configuration
web interface page will open in the browser app to enable
amplifier configuration as required.
It is strongly recommended that the PowerZone Connect
amplifier WiFi password is changed following initial wireless
connection.

Speaker Outputs
• GPIO (General Purpose Input/Output) options can be
configured via the amplifier configuration web interface.
• Ensure that rack or other confined installation does not
restrict the airflow required for safe and reliable operation of
the equipment. It is important to ensure that the 40°C maximum
operating temperature for the equipment is not exceeded.
Wired Network Control Connection
A laptop or desktop device with Ethernet functionality, a web
browser and a network scanning app is required.
Follow the steps below.
1. Connect the Power Zone Connect amplifier Network Control
socket directly to a laptop or desktop device
-
or through a switch.
2. Connect the PowerZone Connect amplifier to mains power
using the supplied mains cable and wait for the front panel
Network indicator to illuminate green to indicate that the
amplifier has network connectivity.
3. The default LAN IP address of the amplifier is 192.168.64.100.
Configure your laptop or desktop device to a fixed IP address
in the same IP range,
ex.
192.168.64.10, with Subnet mask
255.255.255.0 (or prefix 24) and set Gateway to 192.168.64.1.
4. Open a laptop or desktop device web browser and enter the
address http:/!192.168.64.100/ - The amplifier configuration
