REMOTE TURN ON/SIGNAL SENSE
The VIV68DSP has two options, a 12v remote input and signal sense option
REMOTE INPUT OPTION:
The head unit has a +12V trigger output that is connected to the VIV68DSP
remote input terminal. When the head unit is turned on, the unit will turn on
the VIV68DSP. The remote out connection of the VIV68DSP may be used to daisy-
chain to additional units or amplifiers and turn them on as well.
SIGNAL SENSE OPTION
Alternatively, the signal sense feature can be used to tun on the VIV68DSP
when an audio input signal is detected at inputs 1-2. Then the connection to
the VIV68DSP’s remote input terminal is not required.
An in-line fuse holder with a 3A fuse should be fitted in the +12V line.
WIRED REMOTE:
Channels 7-8 are the default sub channels for the remote sub volume control.

- Here you can set each output channel at 0 or 180 degrees
- MUTE
- Select which of the 8 output channels you would like to mute
- TIME DELAY
This is where you can add delay on a speaker to allow the sound to hit both of the listener’s ears at the same time to improve imaging.
Determining Distance
- If the listener is in the DRIVER side
- The PASSENGER side speaker (CH2) could be at 0”
- The DRIVER side speaker (CH1) could be set to 10“ which is the DIFFERENCE in distance between the two speakers to the listeners ear. (Do NOT enter in the actual distance for each speaker to the ear, only the difference in length).
The 7 buttons on the bottom right of the PC software do the following:
BYPASS/RESTORE EQ: Allows you to hear the difference with your
adjustments and without
RESET EQ: This allows you to remove your adjustments and start over from the beginning.
NORMAL MODE/CROSSOVER MODE: Crossover mode shows the names of each channel based on your install.
RESET OUTPUT: This will reset the channel-specific settings
LOCK OUTPUT: This prevents the user from accidentally changing any settings
LINK OUTPUT: You can copy the adjustments from one channel to the other channel base don your actual use. EQ data is synchronized between two channels.
BYPASS OUTPUT: You can set the default curve or the curve you saved before bypass.
