Speco WAT100D Installation Instructions

WAT100D

100W 70/25V Decora Slider Volume Control with 3 Colors

Thank you for your choice of Speco Technologies’ WAT100D volume control. This unit is designed and
manufactured to provide a stylish and high-power alternative to conventional commercial volume controls. For
your convenience and to match many standard decors, 3 color choices for plate and slider knob are included with
this unit.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:

1) The WAT100D includes 3 color choices: Ivory, White and Almond.

2) BEFORE installing the unit into the wall, select your desired color.

3) Insert the appropriate color slider into the slider plate. To insert, place it vertical inside the cavity and
then twist it in.

4) If the unit already has a slider plate attached to the unit, and you wish to use a different color, simply
press both tabs on one end forward from the rear of the unit at the same time to remove.

5) Slide the black plate on the unit all the way to the top.

6) The slider knob has grooves to align with the ridges on the black plate attached to the control. Make sure
the slider knob is also all the way to the top, and then connect the entire assembly to the volume control.
You can tell if you have aligned the knob correctly if it does not slide down on its own while turning the
entire volume control up and down. There should be the slightest resistance and you can feel the steps of
the volume control.

7) To wire, you should remove the phoenix connector on the back of the unit for easier connection.

8) The arrow signifies negative (-) polarity. For the input from your amplifier, wire the negative wire to the
arrow, and the positive to the “in” terminal. For output to the speakers, negative wire to arrow, and
positive wire to “out.”

WARNING: DO NOT CONNECT MORE THAN 100 WATTS OF 70V or 25V SPEAKERS TO THIS UNIT OR YOU RISK
DAMAGING YOUR SPEAKERS, AMPLIFIER AND/OR VOLUME CONTROL. DO NOT REVERSE IN AND OUT
CONNECTIONS OR RISK DAMAGING EQUIPMENT. ALSO ENSURE YOUR AMPLIFIER CAN HANDLE 100W OF
SPEAKERS. IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBT AT ALL ABOUT ANY ASPECT OF INSTALLATION, PLEASE CONTACT A
QUALIFIED INSTALLER.

9) Using the screws provided, install the completed assembly into a single gang electrical work box,
