The

12V Trigger Output

jack generates its own +12 Vdc voltage whenever the P 3 is turned on

so it can trigger other components such as a Parasound power amplifier. This output will
provide up to 200 mA of current to trigger an external component.

What You’ll Need:

• A second trigger cable with 2.5 mm sub-mini plugs (provided)
• A component that can be triggered with an external +9 Vdc to

+12 Vdc trigger voltage

Before Connecting

Remove power to all the components in your audio system.

To Connect

Connect one end of this cable to the

12V Trigger Output

jack on the P 3.

Connect the other end to the component that you want to trigger.
