AX-ADCT4
Wire Color & Function: The audio and power input wire colors are an EIA standard for
car stereo applications as follows.
INPUT HARNESS POWER HARNESS
WHITE = LEFT Front (+) Input YELLOW = BATTERY +12V Input
WHITE/BLACK = LEFT Front (-) Input BLACK = POWER (-) GROUND Input
GRAY = RIGHT Front + Input BLUE = REMOTE +12V Output
GRAY/BLACK = RIGHT Front (-) Input BLACK/WHITE = Reference Ground(-)
GREEN = LEFT rear (+) Input
GREEN/BLACK = LEFT rear (-) Input
PURPLE = RIGHT rear (+) Input
PURPLE/BLACK = RIGHT rear (-) Input
OUTPUT HARNESS
WHITE = LEFT Front (+) Output
WHITE/BLACK = LEFT Front (-) Output
GRAY = RIGHT Front + Output
GRAY/BLACK = RIGHT Front (-) Output
GREEN = LEFT rear (+) Output
GREEN/BLACK = LEFT rear (-) Output
PURPLE = RIGHT rear (+) Output
PURPLE/BLACK = RIGHT rear (-) Output
NOTE: Be sure that all audio input connections are polarized or in phase with each other.
That is, the positive output wires from the audio source need to be connected to the corresponding positive input wires of the AX-ADCT4. The same goes for the negative audio
wires. Failure to do this will result in poor bass response and low quality audio.
Adjusting the AX-ADCT4 for maximum performance: After completing all of the necessary connections, turn the AX-ADCT4 adjustment pots all of the way down by rotating
them completely counter-clockwise. Now, turn the stereo system on and adjust the main
volume control on the stereo to approximately ¾ maximum volume. Select one of the
adjustment pots on the AX-ADCT4 and turn it slowly clockwise until you notice audio
distortion and then stop. Turn the remaining pots to the same position as the previously
adjusted pot. The audio set-up of the AX-ADCT4 is now complete and ready to be
enjoyed.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
A 4 Channel Adjustable, Line Output Converter (LOC) with Built-in Amplifi er Remote
Generator
The AX-ADCT4 is designed to convert 4 channels of speaker level audio into 4 channels
of line level audio that can be used by OEM amplifi ers. It can also be used with OEM
radios to add aftermarket amplifi ers. This device will also detect the presence of an audio
signal and then generate a +12V output (verifi ed by an illuminated LED) that can be used
to turn-on an aftermarket amplifi er.
Features & Specifi cations: The AX-ADCT4 is able to handle 80 watts per channel contin-
uous input without over heating. The input circuitry is designed to correct the crossover
distortion commonly found on standard LOCs while providing a high to low level step
down of 6:1. Output audio level is infi nitely adjustable using the onboard, high quality
potentiometers. The remote output or amplifi er trigger is rated at 500mA (+12V) and will
easily handle an outboard relay if additional current is needed. The remote output will
trigger instantaneously when the AX-ADCT4 detects a DC voltage on the white, left +
audio input wire above 5V or a very low audio signal. It will shut off 60 seconds after no
signal is detected.
Installation: The AX-ADCT4 should be installed on a stereo’s speaker output wires or
the output wires on an OEM amplifi er of up to 80 watts per channel. These wires can be
found behind the stereo in the dash, on the output of an OEM amplifi er, or on the input
terminals on the OEM speakers. Please refer to the wiring diagram for the input connection details.
