GUIDE TO CONNECTIONS
Using the 12-pin Wiring Harness
Aquatic AV 12-Pin Wiring Harness
Aquatic AV supplies a ‘female’ 12-pin wiring harness (AQ-UNH-2) with each CD, DVD or Digital Media
source-unit. The female connection block on the wiring harness should be connected directly to the
‘male’ connection block on the rear of the source-unit. The 12 wires on the female wiring harness
should then be connected to speakers, battery terminals and any external device as shown below:
AQ-UNH-2 Wiring Harness (Side) AQ-UNH-2 Wiring Harness (Front)
ANTENNA / AMP TURN ON
Using triggered external devices
If your source-unit is equipped with Aquatic AV’s 12V trigger feature you can connect the blue wire of the
female wiring harness (AQ-UNH-2) to an external device such as power antenna or amplier and use your
Aquatic AV source unit to switch or ‘trigger’ the device on/off.
The 12V trigger provides an output of 12V DC, 350mA. Please ensure this is compatible with your external
device before connecting.
If you are unsure if your source-unit provides the 12V trigger feature, or if your external device will be
compatible, please contact your Aquatic AV dealer or Aquatic AV Technical Support.
