INSTALLATION

The ground point in the car should be a piece of chassis metal that is part of or
welded to the main body of the vehicle. Painted surfaces should be scraped or
sanded clean to expose the bare metal before the ground lug is bolted down.
(Cover the bare metal area with paint or grease after you finish mounting the
ground wire to prevent rust.)
REMOTE TURN ON OPTIONS
11
The ORANGE wire on the Amplified Bazookas' 14-pin Molex Mini-fit Jr. connector is the
Remote Turn On Wire. You have several options in connecting the Remote Turn On Wire.
These options are listed in the order or preference recommended by SAS. Select the option
best suited for your application.
Option One:
For the most versatility the Orange Remote Turn On Wire should be connected to the
source unit's "Accessory", "Auto-Antenna" or "Remote" lead -- any of which will supply 12
Volts positive when the source is turned on. When using this option the Auto/off Jumper
Clip must be in the off position ( the two right most pins ) and the Orange wire will supply
turn on voltage to the Amplified Bazooka.
Option Two:
If the source does not have an Auto-Antenna lead (or if the Auto-Antenna goes down dur-
ing tape operation),you can connect the Amplified Bazookas' Remote Turn On Wire to an
accessory or ignition point at the vehicle fuse block. In this configuration, the Amplified
Bazooka will be on whenever the ignition is on. This method may allow noise or turn-on-
and-off transients to become amplified when the source unit is not in use, and therefore is
less desirable then option one. When using this option the Auto/off Jumper Clip must be
in the off position ( the two right most pins ) and the Orange wire will supply turn on volt-
age to the Amplified Bazooka.
Option Three:
The Amplified Bazooka has a built-in Auto Turn-On Feature. If you choose to use this fea-
ture, the Amplified Bazooka will turn on automatically whenever there is music present at
the inputs (high level or low level input). Locate the Auto/Off Jumper Clip located on the
back of the unit, SAS ships the Amplified Bazooka with this Jumper in the Off Position. To
use the Auto Turn-On Option the Jumper must be placed in the Auto Position. The Jumper
Clip must be lifted off of the middle and right hand pins and reinserted across the left hand
