Power Connection - Rockford Fosgate POWER 1000 Installation Et Fonctionnement

1. Plan the wire routing. Keep RCA cables close together but isolated from the amplifier's power cables
and any high power auto accessories, especially electric motors.This is done to prevent coupling the
noise from radiated electrical fields into the audio signal.When feeding the wires through the firewall
or any metal barrier, protect them with plastic or rubber grommets to prevent short circuits. Leave
the wires long at this point to adjust for a precise fit at a later time.
2. Prepare the RED wire (power cable) for attachment to
the amplifier by stripping 5/8" of insulation from the end
of the wire. Insert the bared wire into the B+ terminal
and tighten the set screw to secure the cable in place.
NOTE:The B+ cable MUST be fused 18" or less from the
vehicle's battery. Install the fuseholder under the
hood and ensure connections are water tight.
3. Trim the RED wire (power cable) within 18" of the
battery and splice in a inline fuse holder. See
Specifications for the rating of the fuse to be used. DO
NOT install the fuse at this time.
4. Strip 1/2" from the battery end of the power cable and
crimp a large ring terminal to the cable. Use the ring
terminal to connect to the battery positive terminal.
5. Prepare the BLACK wire (Ground cable) for attachment to the amplifier by stripping 5/8" of
insulation from the end of the wire. Insert the bare wire into the GROUND terminal and tighten the
set screw to secure the cable in place. Prepare the chassis ground by scraping any paint from the
metal surface and thoroughly clean the area of all dirt and grease. Strip the other end of the wire and
attach a ring connector. Fasten the cable to the chassis using a non-anodized screw and a star washer.
NOTE:Keep the length of the BLACK wire (Ground) as short as possible. Always less than 30"(76.2cm).
6. Prepare the Remote turn-on wire for for attachment to the amplifier by stripping 5/8" of insulation
from the end of the wire. Insert the bared wire into the REMOTE terminal and tighten the set screw
to secure the wire in place. Connect the other end of the Remote wire to a switched 12 volt positive
source.The switched voltage is usually taken from the source unit's remote amp on lead. If the source
unit does not have this output available, the recommended solution is to wire a mechanical switch in
line with a 12 volt source to activate the amplifier.
7. Securely mount the amplifier to the vehicle or amp rack. Be careful not to mount the amplifier on
cardboard or plastic panels. Doing so may enable the screws to pull out from the panel due to road
vibration or sudden vehicle stops.
8. Connect from source signal by plugging the RCA cables into the input jacks at the amplifier.
CAUTION:Always ensure power is off or disconnected at the amplifier before
connecting RCA cables. Failure to do so may cause injury, damage to the
amplifier and/or connected components.
