MOON W-6 Mono Power Amplifier
Custom Installation
12 Volt Remote Trigger
The “12 Volt Remote Trigger” can turn the MOON W-6 mono power amplifier on or off by a hard
wired remote connected to its input. When correctly installed, the system allows the use of both the
trigger and the push button to turn the W-6 on or off.
Please note that the main rocker power
switch must be left on at all times to allow for the use of the
12 Volt trigger.
When the W-6
is powered off, it can be powered on by either the trigger or the push button. When
the W-6
is powered on, it can be powered off by the trigger. It can also be powered off by the push
button, but only if the trigger isn’t in «on» mode.
Working with the 12 Volt Trigger
The 12 Volt Trigger input is on a 3.5 mm microphone jack (mono) loacted on the back panel of the
MOON W-6. With simple direct logic applied, 0V turns the unit off, and 12V turns the unit on. Input
impedance is 300 ohms and the current required will be approximately 40 mA.
Remember, the main rocker power switch must be left in the “on” position at all times to make use of
the trigger possible.
Recommendations
If you are a professional custom installer, please take the time to carefully read this manual prior to
starting any installations involving the MOON W-6 mono power amplifier. Pay particular attention to
the “Installation Tips”
section on page 6. If you intend to mount the W-6 in an in-wall cabinet or
other closed environment, remember that you have to ventilate the amplifier properly to prevent
overheating.
