SOURCE CONNECTIONS
The UA 2-125 ARC amplifier can
support multiple connections.
In the SonARC App, one
connection can be selected as
the default source, while the
other will be the secondary
source. Normally, audio will play
from the default source. If audio
is detected on the secondary
source the UA 2-125 ARC will automatically switch to
the secondary source. From the factory the default
source for the UA 2-125 ARC is the HDMI connection
while the Analog RCA connections are the secondary
source. If you are using a digital source (HDMI), make
sure that the source device is set up to provide a
2-channel PCM signal.
SETUP BUTTON
Bluetooth on the UA 2-125 ARC should be on by
default. If the phone running the SonARC App cannot
connect with the UA 2-125 ARC unit, press the SETUP
button to initiate the Bluetooth connection.
IR CONTROL
The IR 3.5mm jack can be used to receive IR
commands from a distribution box or provided sensor.
Refer to the UA 2-125 ARC webpage for specific IR
control codes. This feature will turn on automatically
when the IR sensor is plugged in, and does not need
to be enabled in the SonARC App interface.
CLIP INDICATOR LED
When the amp is clipping, audio peaks display as RED
flashes. If this occurs, the amplifier is being overdriven
and the volume control needs to be reduced until the
peaks no longer cause the LED to illuminate.
