TURNING ON THE P 3 WITH AN EXTERNAL TRIGGER VOLTAGE
The P 3 can be turned on automatically when a trigger voltage is received from an external DC
voltage source such as a system controller.
What You’ll Need:
• A trigger cable with 2.5 mm sub-mini plugs (provided)
• A component with an external +9Vdc to +12Vdc trigger
voltage
Before Connecting
Remove power to all the components in your audio system.
To Connect
Plug one end of this cable into the 12V Trigger Input jack of the P 3.
Plug the other end into the component with an external DC trigger voltage.

2.5 mm sub-mini plug
YOU SHOULD KNOW
If the component you want to use to control your P 3 doesn’t have a 2.5 mm trigger output
jack, you can cut off one plug and terminate the end of the wire. The lead with the red stripe
is positive and the lead without a stripe is negative.
You cannot automatically turn on the P 3 by applying AC power to the unit. Therefore, the P 3
will not turn on automatically if it is connected to a switched AC outlet.
