Connecting The Inputs - Conrad XCA 200 Bedienungsanleitung

Connect the "+12V" connector of the connection
terminal of the power supply directly to the posi-
tive terminal of the car battery.
Connect the "REMOTE" connector to the terminal
on the power supply, to the remote control
connector or to the antennae control output of the
car radio.
Connect the „GND" connector of the connection
terminal for the power supply to the negative termi-
nal (ground) of the battery or to the car body.
Distribute the power supply in a star-shaped way, i.e. the connections of the negative leads
start from one and the same point for all components of the car hi-fi system. This way of dis-
tributing the power supply avoids mass loops.
Connect the positive leads in the same way.

Connecting the Inputs

Model XCA XCA 400 and XCA 402
The amplifier is provided with cinch inputs to be connected to the car radio.
Car radios with cinch outputs can be directly connected to the input sockets. If your car radio is only pro-
vided with loudspeaker outputs, a suitable audio frequency adapter is to be used for the connection.
Model XCA 200 and XCA 202
The amplifier has both loudspeaker and cinch inputs to be connected to the car radio.
If your car radio has cinch outputs, the amplifier should be connected via the cinch inputs in any case to
ensure a high playback quality.
But if your radio car is not provided with cinch outputs, you can connect the amplifier to the loudspeaker out-
puts without requiring any additional devices or adapters.
Never use the two input types (loudspeaker and cinch inputs) simultaneously.
The amplifier will be switched on via this input, if
a voltage of +12V is applied.
Nowadays, almost all car radios are provided
with such a control output which only carries
+12V if the radio is turned on.
Attention! Since the electrical conductivity is
continuously limited due to the increasingly used
gluing technology or the lacquered metal parts,
not each metal component is suited to function as
a mass point.
