SF-16M CONNECTIONS - Speaker Outputs
The SF-16M includes 16 amplied audio outputs that can be congured as mono, stereo or a combination of both mono
and stereo. Figure 6, shown below, provides examples of each conguration.
NOTE: It is important that all physical speaker output congurations are entered into the SF-16M programming, using the
PC conguration software or the front panel system menu.

SF-16M
Speakers and Impedance
Each ampler output of the SF-16M can support a 4 Ohm speaker
load. In many cases only one speaker is connected per amplier
output, so any single speaker with a 4 - 8 Ohm impedance rating
is acceptable for use with the SF-16M. Two 8 ohm speakers
can be connected in parallel onto a single SF-16M amplier
output without sacricing performance (Figure 7). Do not connect
multiple 6 ohm or 4 ohm speakers to one SF-16M output, and do
not connect multiple speakers wired in series.
Ferrite Beads
If System Trigger or Override terminals are used, attach a ferrite bead
around the wires near the terminal. Apply a separate ferrite bead to
override and system trigger wires.
Changing the Power Fuse
Before changing the fuse, nd and correct
the excessive impedance load or wiring
short that caused the fuse failure.
The fuse compartment contains two extra
fuses that can be used to replace blown
fuses in the eld. Access the replacement
fuses by sliding out a compartment behind
each fuse, as shown in Figure 7.
• Remove the power cord
• Use a at head screwdriver to remove the
fuse cover
• Inspect both fuses to determine which
one is blown.
• Replace the blown fuse with a new fuse
