Automatic source activation through signal recognition. As soon as a signal is present, it will be recognized by BOSSCOM PL Switch Airplay and a Powerlink signal with circuit voltage will be generated. If the source no longer delivers a signal (e.g. if it is turned off or muted), an intelligent circuit shall provide a delay of approximately 1 minute - only then the ®...
® activate DIP Switch 3 (ON position) the sound will be optically transmitted from Apple Airport Express via SPDIF cable and will be converted from BOSSCOM Powerlink Switch Airplay as a standard Powerlink signal (including circuit voltage). And, if the ®...

Back side SPDIF/TOSLINK INPUT Connection option for volume controlled, digital audio signals via optical cable ® ® with Toslink connectors. Ideal for Apple Airport Express (Airplay) or SONOS ZP90 Mains connection Connect Euro power socket with the included power cable to the socket. ATTENTION: Before doing so, all other cables should already be connected!
Bottom side DIP Switch positions DIP Switch 1: Sound level IN1 auto detect enable ON: IN1 input automatically activates by sound level => 15mw or trigger pin4 OFF: IN1 input can be enabled only by voltage level =>5v on trigger pin4 DIP Switch 2: Signal priority IN1 vs.

Status Signal path Comment All DIP switches or other inputs do IN1 pin4 = (5 to 12v) IN1 =>OUT not care. LED = (single short blink). DIP1 ON DIP2 ON IN1 =>OUT LED = (single short blink). DIP3 ON DIP1 ON DIP2 OFF IN3 =>OUT LED = (triple short blink).
(to the right) increases 6 times. E.g. 100 mw can be reduced up to 33 mw and increased up to 600 mw. SPDIF/TOSLINK INPUT The BOSSCOM Powerlink Switch Airplay has a digital processor inside. It gives the opportunity to control left and right channel at the same time.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS The connection to the power grid occurs via the supplied power cord. A damaged connecting cable may not be repaired. The operating voltage must match the local mains voltage. Protect the device from moisture and wetness. Do not operate the device in the rain.
