Presentation
The T 0302 PLAYER MULTICOLOR mixer was designed for sound systems allowing
the mixing of several types of audio signals with high y, ensuring the
original dynamics of the sound. It has a convenient MP3/WMA player, Bluetooth
and FM built-in with long range remote control.
The Player accepts USB DRIVE up to 64GB size, containing MP3 and WMA audio
until 320Kbps bit rate (high quality). Its Bluetooth has the 4.0 version and
operates under SBC/A2DP protocol.
It has a 4-band equalizer that allows you to increase or decrease speciranges
of bass, midbass, mid-high and treble, allowing professional control in any
situation. Its outputs with timed MUTE avoid undesirable noises (Pops) when
turned on or off, dispensing with the sequencing of activations, facilitating
installation.
With a total of 72 variable lighting effects, causing a different visual effect
for the user. See pages 08 and 09.
The T 0302 FX MULTICOLOR features 3 input channels, CHANNEL 1 is balanced with
two shared connections, one XLR and one RTS. This is a high-sensitivity, wide-
gain input, which allows the use of a Microphone or LINE IN.
CHANNELS 2 and 3 feature shared L+R type RCA inputs with an RTS connector for
greater connection y.
All 3 inputs have independent controls for:
- Gain for adjusting the input signal level.
- 4 EQ controls HIGH, MID HIGH. MID LOW and LOW with ±15dB boost/attenuation.
- Level for output control.
The 2 outputs have great amplitude and can deliver up to +18dBu or 6.3Vac of distortion-free signal.
Important recommendations
Use the P4 adapter with terminal that comes with the product to connect the power wires to the vehicle’s 12V battery. Use 1.5mm² gauge wires for both the positive and negative wires. Screw the wires according to the following instruction:
1- Borne on the battery positive
2 – Borne on the battery negative.
As protection, a fuse must be installed close to the positive pole of the
battery (2A fuse). check for more details on pag. 16 of this manual. For the
REMOTE connection, use 0.5 mm² wire.
The sound mixer must be fixed in an easily accessible and ventilated place. It
is not recommended to install the product on the sides of speakers, as
vibrations can damage their internal components.
In order to avoid noise captation, use good quality shielded signal cables and
connectors.
CAUTION
Check power polarity and recommended gauge.
it is recommended to install a 2 Amperes fuse on the positive supply terminal.
