12V In Jack
The P14 12V input uses a 3.5 mm jack (mono). To use the 12V trigger, insert the
trigger wire plug into this jack and the plug at the wire’s other end into your
preamplifier’s 12 V output jack. For your convenience we have included a 12V
trigger wire with mono 3.5 mm plugs at both ends. The P14 12V trigger circuit
draws a negligible 5 mA.
Note:
If your preamplifier’s 12V trigger output is terminal with + and – screws terminal,
you can cut the 3.5 mm plug off one end of the included trigger wire and attach
the bare wires to these terminals. The lead with the white stripe on it
corresponds to the plug’s tip and the unmarked lead corresponds to the sleeve
of the plug. The trigger plug tip is + (positive) and its sleeve – (negative).
12V Loop Out Jack
The Trigger Out jack lets you loop or “daisy-chain” the incoming trigger voltage
to an additional P14 or other component(s). The total load on your triggering
device’s 12 V output is the sum of the trigger current drawn by each of the
components you plan to loop together. Check the maximum capacity of your
preamplifier’s trigger output so you do not overload it by connecting too many
power amplifiers. Typical triggering devices are rated to handle 50 mA to 100
mA.
3.5 mm vs. 2.5 mm jacks
Some other KECES power amplifiers and preamplifiers might use a 2.5 mm
“sub-mini” (mono) trigger jack. To use the P14 trigger with products that use a
2.5mm jack you will need a 3.5 mm to 2.5 mm mono adapter for one of the plugs
on the included trigger wire.
