9 Using the PIP-Lite with the
IQ-PIP-USP2 Adapter
The IQ-PIP-USP2 Adapter allows many older Crown PIP-compatible amplifiers (i.e.,
Macro-Tech
®
00 Series, Com-Tech 00 Series, and Studio Reference Series amplifiers) to
access the power and versatility of the Crown PIP-Lite module. The PIP-USP3 and PIP-
USP3/CN do not work with the IQ-PIP-USP2 Adapter.
The IQ-PIP-USP2 Adapter can be installed into the following Crown amplifier models:
CT-200*, CT-400*, CT-800*, CT-1600*
MA-600, MA-1200, MA-2400
MA-3600VZ, MA-5000VZ**
MA-24x6, MA-36x12
Macro Reference*
Studio Reference I
Studio Reference II
*Important: Some of the first generation Com-Tech Series and Macro-Reference amplifi-
ers have soldered 16-pin ribbon and 5-pin signal cable connections, rather than the modu-
lar type described in Section 3.3. If you find that your original Com-Tech Series or Macro-
Reference amplifier has the soldered type cable connections, contact the Crown Technical
Support Group for installation instructions.
**Important: Some newer Macro-Tech MA-5000VZ amplifiers are already PIP2-compati-
ble and can accept the PIP-Lite directly. Older MA-5000VZ amplifiers are not PIP2-com-
patible. Those amplifiers have soldered 16-pin ribbon and 5-pin signal connections, rather
than the modular type described in Section 3.3. If you find that your MA-5000VZ amplifier
has the soldered type cable connections, contact the Crown Technical Support Group for
installation instructions.
Important: The IQ-PIP-USP2 Adapter is designed for use with the IQ-PIP-USP2 module
and PIP-Lite ONLY, and will NOT work with the IQ-PIP-USP2/CN, USP3, USP3/CN, or any
other PIP module.
