1. Turn down the level controls

(full counterclockwise), turn off
the amplifier and unplug it from
the AC power source.

2. Remove the existing

P.I.P.

module or panel (two screws).
For

PIP2

amplifiers, this may

involve disconnecting the

P.I.P.

from a

PIP2

input adapter

(see Figures 3.6 and 3.7). If a

PIP2

input adapter is already

present, do not remove the
ribbon cables from the
adapter. Otherwise you will
have to reconnect them in the
next step.

Standard P.I.P. Amplifiers

:

Align the edges of the

P.I.P.–

EDCb

in the

P.I.P.

card rails

and firmly push the unit in until
it is seated against the
mounting bracket (see Figure
3.5).

PIP2 Amplifiers:

(Requires a

PIP2

input adaptor. Crown part

number Q43528-1.) Connect
the

PIP2

input adapter to the

two input cables of the
amplifier (see Figure 3.6).
Notice that the

PIP2

input

adapter should be positioned
with the

P.I.P.

edge connector

on top and facing away from
the amplifier. The 20 pin cable
(A) is connected first, then the
18 pin cable (B) is connected.
Both ribbon cables should
extend below the

PIP2

input

adapter.

touch the circuitry. Even though
the amplifier is off, there could
still be enough energy remaining
to cause electric shock.
