Cinénova-IR16 Power Amplifier Unpacking Connection tips Unpacking system components ! Keep the original carton and packing materials for future shipment or storage. ! It is recommended that the Cinénova-IR16 and the source equipment be plugged into a dedicated 20-amp circuit with an isolated ground. ! Disconnect all live power cords before making connections to the remote gain. ! Keep all power cords away from all signal cables to prevent humming from induced noise.

Cinénova-IR16 Power Amplifier IR Wiring Configuration Sample The Cinénova 16 IR allows you to connect several sources to the input stage of the amplfier. It also allows you to aim the remote at the zone pad and use the source remote control. As you aim the remote to the pad, the IR signal is transmitted from the pad to the amplifier and thereafter amplified. There are four repeaters on the back of the amplifier that can be connected to the source IR sensor.
