the source unit is turned on.
2. FUSE: This 1 amp fuse will protect the MLX 23 from damage in case of a short.
3. POWER TERMINALS:
B+ terminal: connect to a positive 12 volts DC
Remote terminal: connect to remote turn on lead of the source
GND: connect to the vehicle's chassis ( 12 volt DC)
4. REAR INPUTS: This accepts input signal from the rear output of the source unit via RCA cables.
5. FRONT INPUTS: This accepts input signal from the front output of the source unit via RCA cables.
6. 2CH/4CH INPUT SWITCH:
In the 4CH position, the MLX 23 will accept both front and rear signal inputs from the source unit.
This allows fader control and summation of the front and rear inputs for the subwooer output.
In the 2CH position, signal will only be accepted in to the rear inputs of the MLX 23 from the source
unit. This in turn will split into the three outputs.
