The Vanco SS6 allows you to connect a single stereo amplifier to up to six pairs of speakers, enabling audio distribution to different rooms or zones. Each zone can be independently turned on or off. The unit incorporates an impedance protection circuit to prevent your amplifier from operating below a safe impedance level, which can be manually activated or deactivated depending on your system's configuration and the use of impedance-matching volume controls.

Sąranka ir diegimas

Follow these steps to properly set up your Vanco SS6 speaker selector box:

1. Išjungti: Užtikrinkite savo amplifier and all audio components are powered off and unplugged from the main power supply before making any connections.
2. Speaker Wire Preparation: Prepare your speaker wires (14 to 22 AWG recommended) by stripping approximately 1/4 inch (6mm) of insulation from the ends. Twist the bare wire strands tightly.
3. Prisijunkite Ampgyvybingesnis: Connect the speaker output terminals of your stereo amplifier to the "AMPLIFIER INPUT" push terminals on the rear of the SS6 unit. Ensure correct polarity (+ to + and - to -).
4. Prijunkite garsiakalbius: Connect each pair of speakers to the corresponding "SPEAKER ZONE" push terminals (1 through 6) on the rear of the SS6 unit. Maintain correct polarity for each speaker pair.
5. Impedance Protection:
   • Activate (Recommended): For most setups, especially when connecting multiple speaker pairs to a single amplifier without impedance-matching volume controls, activate the impedance protection circuit. This prevents the amplifier's impedance from dropping below 5 ohms, protecting your receiver.
   • Išjungti: If you are using impedance-matching volume controls in each zone or have a specific system design that accounts for impedance, you may deactivate the protection circuit. Consult an audio professional if unsure.
6. Vieta: Place the SS6 unit in a well-ventilated area, away from heat sources and direct sunlight. Its low-profile design allows for flexible placement.
7. Maitinimas: Once all connections are secure and verified, plug in and power on your amplifier and other audio components.

Naudojimo instrukcijos

Using your Vanco SS6 is straightforward:

1. Select Zones: Press the corresponding button on the front panel for each speaker zone you wish to activate. The button will typically illuminate or indicate its active status.
2. Deselect Zones: Press the button again to deactivate a speaker zone.
3. Garsumo valdymas: Garsumą reguliuokite naudodami savo amplifier's volume control. If using impedance-matching volume controls in individual zones, adjust those as needed.
4. Impedance Protection: If the impedance protection circuit is activated, it will automatically prevent the amplifier from seeing an impedance below 5 ohms, regardless of how many speaker pairs are active or their individual impedance ratings.

Priežiūra

The Vanco SS6 requires minimal maintenance. Keep the unit clean and free from dust. Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents. Ensure adequate ventilation around the unit to prevent overheating.

Trikčių šalinimas

• Nėra garso:
  • Patikrinkite visų garsiakalbių laidų jungtis, ar jos tinkamai įstatytos ir poliškumas yra teisingas.
  • Užtikrinti, amplifier is powered on and playing audio.
  • Verify that the desired speaker zones are selected on the SS6 unit.
  • Check the volume levels on both the amplifier and any in-zone volume controls.
• Iškraipytas garsas:
  • Įsitikinkite, kad garsiakalbių laidai nėra nutrūkę ar trumpai sujungti.
  • Check that the impedance protection is correctly set for your system.
  • Sumažinti amplifier volume to see if distortion persists.
• Įrenginio perkaitimas:
  • Ensure adequate ventilation around the SS6 unit.
  • Verify that the impedance protection is activated if you are running multiple low-impedance speakers.
