Important Safety Information

WARNING
Failure to follow these warnings and cautions could result in personal injury, damage to the vessel, or poor product performance.
See an Important Safety and Product Information guide in the stereo box for product warnings and other important information.
This device must be installed according to these instructions.
Disconnect the vessel’s power supply before beginning to install this product.

CAUTION
Always wear safety goggles, ear protection, and a dust mask when drilling, cutting, or sanding.

NOTICE
When drilling or cutting, always check what is on the opposite side of the surface to avoid damaging the vessel.
You must read all installation instructions before beginning the installation. If you experience difficulty during the installation, contact Fusion® Product Support.

Supplies and Tools Needed

• 2-conductor 22 AWG (0.33 mm2) wire to connect the remote control receiver to the power source

• 6-conductor 22 AWG (0.33 mm2) wire (or equivalent combination of 2- to 4-conductor wire) to connect the
  receiver to the LED speakers

• Cable ties or adhesive for mounting the receiver

• 4 gauge (3 mm) countersunk stainless-steel screws for mounting the remote cradle (optional)

• 3 mm flat screwdriver

• Wire cutters

• Drill and drill bits for mounting the remote cradle (optional)

Mounting and Connection Considerations

When selecting a location for the remote control receiver and making the wiring connections, observe these considerations.

• The receiver housing is not weatherproof, and you must install the receiver in a location that is not exposed to the elements.

• You can connect a single receiver to up to 10 LED speakers with RGB, cool white, and warm white
  functionality (5 pairs). You must use an additional receiver and remote control (sold separately) to connect to additional LED speakers.

• You cannot use a single remote control with more than one receiver.

Connecting the Remote Control Receiver

You can connect up to 10 (5 pairs) of CRGBW LED speakers to one remote control receiver.

1. Route a power wire (not included) from a 12 Vdc power source **1** to the location of the receiver 2 .

2. Install the included 7.5 A fuse 3 on the power wire.

3. Route 6-conductor wire 4 or equivalent (not included) from the receiver to the speakers you want to control, joining the wire where needed to connect up to 4 speakers.
   NOTE: To avoid interference, you must not route the LED wires near and parallel to any RCA, power, or speaker audio cables. You should also avoid routing this cable near any other electronic cabling on the vessel.

4. Connect the 6-conductor wire or equivalent to the CRGBW connectors on the speakers according to the installation instructions provided with the speakers.

5. Loosen the wire terminal screws on the bottom of the receiver using a 3 mm flat screwdriver.

6. Connect the power and RGB speaker wires to the wire terminals on the sides of the receiver.
   Letter on receiver label| Wire color or function
   ---|---
   INPUT +12V DC (left side)| 12 Vdc positive (+)
   INPUT -12V DC (left side)| 12 Vdc negative (-)
   V+ (BLACK) (right side)| CRGBW 12 Vdc positive (+) (common) wire
   NOTE: Two V+ connectors are provided on the right side for convenience. You should connect the common wire from the speakers to only one of these connectors.
   WARM WHITE (YELLOW)| CRGBW warm white wire
   COOL WHITE (TURQUOISE)| CRGBW cool white wire
   V+ (BLACK) (right side)| CRGBW 12 Vdc positive (+) (common) wire
   NOTE: Two V+ connectors are provided on the right side for convenience. You should connect the common wire from the speakers to only one of these connectors.
   RED| CRGBW red wire
   GREEN| CRGBW green wire
   BLUE| CRGBW blue wire

7. Tighten the wire terminal screws on the bottom of the receiver.

8. Secure the receiver to the mounting location using cable ties or adhesive (not included).

Installing the Remote Control Cradle

You can install the included remote cradle to store the remote when not in use. Mounting hardware for the cradle is not included.

NOTICE
Because the remote control is not weatherproof, you must install the cradle in a location that is not exposed to the elements.

1. Using the cradle as a template, mark the two pilot holes.

2. Remove the cradle from the mounting surface and drill the pilot holes.
   NOTICE
   Do not drill through the cradle when drilling the pilot holes. This may damage the cradle.

3. Secure the cradle to the mounting surface using two 4 gauge (3 mm) countersunk stainless-steel screws.

Installing the Batteries

You must install AAA alkaline batteries (not included) in the remote control.

1. Slide the battery door 1 to the back of the remote, and pull up to open it.
2. Insert two AAA batteries, observing polarity.
3. Slide the battery door back onto the remote to close it.
