The wireless GoRave Audio Senders transmit
up to 40 feet (USB style) and 30 feet for all other
styles. Install your GoRave AR5 Audio Receiver
inside this transmitting radius. When deciding the
best location for the AR5, include the distance
needed to transmit from outside spaces like the
back yard or patio.
For optimum wireless reception range, mount your
AR5 vertically on a wall with the input connectors
facing left and product ETL label facing the ceil-
ing. Mounting it at on a table, oor or ceiling will
yield smaller wireless reception range. See Fig. 1
for this vertical mounting orientation.
Mount the AR5 with adequate space around the
unit for all audio and power connections as well as
easy access the Connect button and LED status
indicator. Use four screws (and anchors) to secure
the unit to the surface (hardware not included).
2. Power and Control
2.1 AC Power Connection
The GoRave AR5 receiver/amplier should be plugged directly into a grounded power receptacle rated to de-
liver the power required by the GoRave AR5 unit and the components connected to it.
Connect the power cord to the AC outlet. If local electrical codes require a hard wire connection instead of the
AC power plug and socket connection, consult a qualied electrician for installation assistance.
The GoRave AR5 receiver/amplier will operate with a line voltage of 90-270 VAC with a line frequency of
either 50Hz or 60Hz. There is no need to convert or adjust the unit in any way.
NOTE: If you are going to be away from home for an extended period of time such as a month-long vacation, it
is a sensible precaution to unplug your amplier (as well as other audio and video components) while you are
away.
2.2 Power Indicator
The LED indicator beside the Connect button will be lit green when the power cord is plugged in to an AC out-
let. The GoRave AR5 has a built in low power sleep mode where the power supply and ampliers turn off when
audio is not playing.
Fig 2: typical installation in central closet or pantry to maximize useful
transmitter range (range indicated by dashed circle). In this example,
the owners have opted for stereo loudspeakers to be installed in their
kitchen, master bedroom and one outdoor speaker for the patio.
