multiple speakers wire them according to the directions on page 23 so as not
to exceed this load. If not wired correctly, multiple speakers can overload the
amplifier.
Note: Do not use Tsunami with speakers whose (total) impedance is less than
8 ohms. Doing so may result in erratic operation or even component failure!
Decoder Considerations
It is normal for the DSD to get warm after periods of extended operation and
its thermal overload protection will shut down the audio amplifier if it gets too
warm. Therefore, it is important to install the decoder in a location where it
can dissipate the most heat. Avoid placing the decoder near heat sources
such as the motor or lights wherever possible.
Lighting Considerations
Each Tsunami is equipped with four function outputs that are intended to
drive headlight, backup light and special effect lights. The outputs can be
independently programmed for a multitude of Hyperlight effects and may be
used in a variety of ways. Each output is rated for 100mA.
Do not exceed this rating! Be sure that the combined current of all
lights as well as the motor stall current measured in Step 2 does not
exceed the decoder’s current rating.
