Presentation

The T 0302 Player mixer was designed for sound systems allowing the mixing of several types of audio signals with high fidelity, ensuring the original dynamics of the sound. It has a convenient of an MP3/WMA player, Bluetooth and FM built-in with long-distance remote control.
The Player accepts USB DRIVE up to 64GB size, containing MP3 and WMA audio files 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 specific ranges of bass, mid-bass, mid-high and treble, allowing professional control in any situation. Its outputs with timed MUTE avoid undesirable noises (Pops) when turned on or off,  ispensing with the sequencing of activations, facilitating installation.
The T 0302 Player has 3 input channels. The Channel 1 is balanced and have 2 input connectors: one XLR and other RTS type. It has a wide gain range, allowing microphones or LINE signal level. The 2 and 3 CHANNELS are unbalanced and have 2 input connector: one L+R mixed RCA type and amonoRTS type.
All3 inputs have independent controls for:

• Gain for adjusting the input signal level.
• 4EQ controls HIGH, MID HIGH. MID LOW and LOW with +1 5dB 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 thebattery negative.

As protection, a fuse must be installed close to the positive pole of the battery (1A fuse). check for more details on pag. 16 of this manual. For the REMOTE connection, use 0.5 mm? 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 installa 1 Ampere fuse on the positive supply terminal.

HEADPHONES
Audio output for headphones. Use headphones with P10 standard. This output only plays audio from the built-in PLAYER in stereo.
Itis not possible to listen to channels 1, 2 and 3 through this output.

AUX OUT
It features an RCA connector in parallel with a connector for TRS. This output mixes all input signals, including Land R.
This output features a phase inversion button and independent level control, but it also responds to the MAIN LEVEL control.

MAIN OUT
It features an RCA connector in parallel with a connector forTRS.
This output mixes all input channels, including Rand L.

Functions

Controls

GAIN Adjusts the input signal level. It must be used in case of input saturation, signaled by the CLIP LEDs.
HIGH   Increases or reduces treble by up to +15dB
MID HIGH   Increases or reduces mid-high by up to +15dB
MID LOW Increases or reduces mid-low by upto +15dB
LOW Increases orreduces Low by up to+15dB
LEVEL CHANNLS Adjusts the audio level of the channel (channel 1 ; 2 or 3) that willbe mixed at the outputs.
MUTE
Mutes the channel mixing at the outputs. It is useful for quick channel cutting without changing the gain settings. When activated, the red CLIP LED will light regardless of the input signal level.
LED INDICATORS .
Red LED shows channel input saturation or MUTE button pressed.
Green LED indicates that the channelis receiving signal at its input.|
---|---

PHASE Inverts the signal phase of the AUX OUT channel by 180°.
AUX LEVEL Adjusts the audio output level at AUX OUT.
VU- METER Indicates the level of the output signal.

Installtion

Power and activation

The T 0302 Player was designed to be used in car audio systems with a 12V battery, but it can also be used with an external 12V plug adapter with a current of at least 2A, which must be purchased separately (in this case, the consumer should pay attention to the adapter plug that should be standard P4-2mm) . It has an ON/OFF button that eliminates the REMOTEIN connections.
It can automatically turn on and off by remote activation using the REMOTE IN connection. To do so, keep the ON/OFF key off (unpressed).
The REMOTE OUT connection can be used for powering amplifiers and is timed to minimize transients when turning the system on and off.
REMOTE IN 01
Connection that turns on or off automatically from a remote cable from a CD/DVD player. Use 0.5 mm₂ cable.
REMOTE OUT 02
Output for activating other devices. It can be used to turn on amplifiers or other equipment as long as they have a remote input. This output is current limited and not suitable for currents greater than 350mA.
Use 0.5 mm’ or higher gauge cables.
12V power supply  03
Standard P4/12V 2mm power connector. Use the TERMINAL/P4 adapter that comes with the product ora 12V adapter source (adapter source doens’t come with the product).
Use a 0.75mm₂ cable for the connections and use a 1A fuse on the positive wire as close as possible to the battery, following the marking on the TERMINAL/P4 adapter:
  tothe battery’s 12V positive terminal.
tothe battery’s negative terminal

CAUTION Check power polarity and recommended gauge. it is recommended to installa 1 Ampere fuse on the positive supply terminal.
FM ANTENNA 04
Indoor wire antenna for FM radio reception. Position the wire antenna in order to achieve the best FMreception.
