12V Output Trigger
- Gives you a separate 12 volt turn-on lead for external
amplifiers so there is no need to run a separate wire to the front of the car
3
Ground Isolation Selector
- Occasionally alternator noise may appear in a
system because the source unit and amplifier are using different grounding schemes. To help in this situation, we have provided alternative grounding connections. Make sure your system is turned OFF before you move these jumpers.
4
Six Output Channels
- Six output channels that can either run independently
or be summed together internally
5
Channel Summing
- The E5 HLC6 internal jumpers allow installer to sum
selected channels into sub channels. This is especially useful for factory-installed systems with actively crossed-over speaker systems.
6
Level Matching Controls
- Allows the user to adjust the outputs on the E5 HLC6
independently to help insure proper level matching throughout the entire system.
