NV-P2100 200 Watt Auxiliary Amplifier (Fig. 17)
The P2100 is specifically designed for use with the NuVo
Systems’ lineouts. It can be used with either the fixed or
variable lineouts on the Essentia either a 1/8" to 1/8" stereo
patch cable or a 1/8" stereo to RCA patch cable.
There are two methods for triggering the P2100 from the
Essentia outputs. One is to set the POWER MODE switch
on the P2100 to Audio (the extreme left position) and allow
an incoming audio signal from the Essentia System to turn
on the P2100. The second method is to place the POWER
MODE switch in the AC/DC (extreme right) position. This
will turn on the P2100 when the Essentia is on. An addi-
tional feature of Essentia is zone specific triggers that will
trigger the P2100 only when that zone is turned on.
Utilizing the voltage trigger requires a mono 1/8" patch
cable from either the System ON output on the Essentia to
the P2100 Voltage trigger input, or from the specific Zone
Trigger on the Essentia to the Voltage Trigger on the P2100,
as shown in Fig. 18.
RS232 Interface
The RS232 port allows external two-way communication
with the Essentia System. Home automation systems such
as Crestron and AMX can be set up to operate Essentia. The
RS232 Addendum contained in this manual details the nec-
essary code protocol to operate the Essentia System, using
an external home automation system.
