5. Power Mode Switch with On-Auto-Off Facility
The Power Mode Switch has three positions: ‘On’–‘Auto’–‘Off’. When the switch
is in the ‘Off’ position the subwoofer will not function. In the ‘Auto’ position the
subwoofer will automatically switch on when an input signal is received. It will
remain on. If no signal is received foraround 15-20 minutes, the RS W12 will then
switch into standby mode until a signal is received once more. With the switch in
the ‘On’ position, the subwooferis permanently switched onunder allconditions.
6. RCA Line Level Inputs (Left & Right)
This is the only method of signal input connection to the RS W12. When using a
stereo amplifier system, connection can be provided by a pair of high-quality
signal cablesfrom the pre-out section of an amplifier. If a digital A/V processor or
A/V receiver/amplifier is to be used, a single cable can be connected from the
‘sub out’ or LFE connection on the amplifier to the RCA input connection on the
RS W12 labelled ‘R’. The RCA input marked ‘L’ in this case will remain unused.
Note: - cable lengths should not exceed 10 metres to avoid interference from
other electrical appliances.
7. RCA Line Level Outputs (Left & Right)
RCA line level outputs are provided in order to use other sub-woofers in
conjunction with the RS W12 by ‘daisy chain’ type connection. The outputs are
link outonly connections and donotprovide any form of filtering.
