Remote Connection - AIV Germanium One Einbauanleitung Und Betriebsanleitung

2 2
Attach red cable with 16mm to 35 mm diameter directly to the positive terminal (+) of the battery or to
the central positive ground of the HiFi system and run to the amplifier. Make absolutely certain that the
main electrical cable of the central positive ground is secured with a fuse (see below). Insert the other
end of the electrical cable into the clamp „+12 V" (3) of the amplifier and tighten clamping screw firmly.

Attach black cable with 16mm to 35 mm diameter directly to the auto body or to central ground location
of the HiFi system and run to amplifier.
Equip free end of the electrical cable with cable end sleeve and insert into clamp „GND" (1) of the
amplifier. Tighten clamping screw firmly.
The selected fuse must be sufficient to handle the entire electrical current for the entire audio system.
The total current must therefore be taken into account. Check manufacturer's data for all devices and
determine complete consumption requirements (if necessary, add all fuse ratings). The resulting sum
transferred to fuse should correspond to the total current in Ampere. This must absolutely be inserted
into the main power cable directly behind the battery (+).

Remote Connection

Germanium One
Run cable with small diameter from car radio or CD-radio terminal to amplifier and attach to amplifier
connection „REM" (3) using a cable end sleeve.
When switching radio or CD-radio on or off, the amplifier is switched on/off over soft muting with a one
second delay.
Power On / Control Function with LED
The powering on of the amplifier is indicated by a green LED (6). The amplifier switches on with a time
delay of approximately one second. Uncontrolled motion of the loudspeakers is suppressed by this soft
start when switching on the amplifier.
In the event of severe under impedance (<1Ω), for example, complex load, short-circuit at the
loudspeaker outputs, direct current at the loudspeaker voice coils, or with overload causing too-high
temperatures on the heatsink, the microprocessor controlled electronic monitor immediately powers the
amplifier off.
Thermal overload is indicated by an alternately blinking of the red LED (5) and green LED (6).
Short circuits or DC on the speaker outputs are indicated by blinking of the red LED (5).
After the repair of the disturbance the amplifier can be reactivated by repeated on/off switching.
If the powering down of the amplifier was caused by short circuit or overload / too-high temperature, it
will restart itself automatically after a cooling phase.
Frequent powering off for thermal reasons indicates a poor designation of location, and the amplifier
should be relocated to a well-ventilated area. A persistent indication of trouble suggests that a defect in
the equipment is present. The amplifier should be sent in for repair.
