User Manual

NOTE: Use Class 2 wiring for speaker connections.
To wire the output connector: 1. Strip the insulation off each
speaker wire to expose 3/8" (10 mm) of bare conductor. 2.
Unscrew the output terminal binding post several twists, insert
each wire into the correct terminal.
3. Tighten binding post by twisting clock-wise until it is firmly
clamping the speaker wire.
Warning: While the amplifier does self-protect under most
improper output conditions, misconfiguration of loudspeaker
mode and incorrect connection of loudspeakers could damage
connected loudspeakers and/or amplifier. Please refer
installation to a qualified installation professional, and always
check state and local electrical codes when installing.
AMP310VS
OWNER’S MANUAL
17. Mains Power Inlet & Fuse Holder
Accepts IEC type line cord. Afuse located in the integrated holder provides
safety protection from fault conditions: replace fuse with one of same type
and rating only.
18. Mains Voltage Selector
Voltage selection switch is preset to 115V (USA). For use in areas which
require 230V contact your dealer. Fuse must be of type and rating marked
on amplifier for use at local mains voltage.
APPLICATIONS
STEREO SETUP
In this configuration, the mode switch is set to “Stereo”. Connect the line
out jacks from a stereo pre-amplifier or source to the MAIN input jacks of
your AMP310VS. Next connect your speakers to the terminals marked
“Speaker A” observing proper polarity. Select the “A” speakers using the
front panel zone selection buttons. Connect a second (optional) pair of
speakers to the terminals marked “Speaker B”. If you are connecting 4
speakers to the AMP310VS they must be 8 ohm speakers only. Press A
and B together to use both zones.
SETUP FOR MULTIPLE SOURCE
In the multiple source set up, a distributed audio system is connected to
the AMP310VS as a local zone amplifier via the MAIN inputs. Normally
the distribute d audio system will be the audio source for the AMP310VS.
The distributed audio is then passed on to be used by additional zones or
sub zones in the distributed system via the MAIN outputs.
(From Local Source Line Out) (From Pre-amp Line Out) (Out to Additional Zones)
The audio output of a local source, such as an MP3 Player, CD, television, computer,
etc., is connected to the AMP310VS via the INTERRUPTING inputs, and whenever
the local source is active its signal will take priority over the distributed audio signal
present at MAIN input . However, the distributed audio si gnal will still be present at the
MAIN input. In this circumstance the audio output of the local source will be heard via
the AMP310VS. Once the local source is turned off or muted, the AMP310VS will
automatically switch back to the distributed audio system as an audio source,
assuming the local source remains inactive. There is a delay of up to 6 seconds when
switching from INTERRUPTING input back to MAIN inputs.
