CDi DriveCore Series Operation Manual

Application Examples

Dual Mode, Low Z (2Ω, 4Ω, 8Ω, or 16Ω)

Audio Architect software settings are shown in Figure 66. Typical input/

output wiring is shown in Figure 67.

INPUTS: Connect the input wires for each channel. See

"Wiring Input

Connectors" on page 7

for further information on analog input

wiring.

If the same input signal is to drive multiple outputs, the input signal

can be "Y'ed" by checking the "Y" checkboxes (see Figure 66). See

"Conguring Amp Wiring & Bridge Mode" on page 13 for

more information.

If using the BLU link input, it is important to understand that BLU link

is a digital audio bus and cannot be routed through an Ethernet switch

or router. Category 5e or higher cabling must be used for all BLU link

connections. To use the built-in BLU link fault protection, the BLU

link output of the last device on the bus must be connected back to the BLU link input of the ﬁrst device. For additional information on making BLU link

connections and using BLU link, see

"Using BLU link" on page 59.

OUTPUTS: Maintain proper polarity (+/–) on output connectors. Connect the Channel 1 speaker’s positive (+) lead to ampliﬁer Channel 1 positive

terminal; repeat for the negative (–) lead. Repeat Channel 2 wiring as for Channel 1, and for any subsequent channel pairs on multichannel models. See

"Wiring Output Connectors" on page 7 for additional information on output wiring.

NOTE: Always route the input and output wires in separate bundles.

WARNING: Only connect to networks that remain inside the building.
