High-Power In-Wall Stereo Volume Control
(400-0987) Installation Faxback Doc. # 46537
Your RadioShack High-Power In-Wall Stereo Volume Control lets you adjust
the volume on a pair of speakers that are located in a room separate from
the stereo, so you can control the sound on the spot.
CAUTION: This volume control is limited to a maximum of 50 watts RMS/100
watts maximum, per channel.
Mounting The Volume Control
The volume control is designed to be mounted in a standard electrical wall
Box. Select a location that is:
Within reach of the speaker wires
Easy to reach for using the volume control
WARNING: You must mount the volume control in a standard electrical box.
Do not mount it directly on a wall.
IMPORTANT: Overtightening the screws might damage the wall plate.
Some electrical wall boxes are a non-standard size. Be sure
that you measure the wall box before you mount the volume
control.
1. Run wiring from the sources through the electrical box.
2. Connect the wiring to the volume control (see "Connections" below).
3. Insert the two supplied short screws into the holes on the volume
control's wall plate.
4. Place the volume control in the electrical box and secure it with the
screws.
Connections
Note: Your local RadioShack store sells the necessary speaker wire to
make the connections.
CAUTION: Letting stray wire ends touch an adjacent terminal, the mounting
brackets or screws, or the metal sides of the electrical box
could cause a short circuit or damage a speaker.
1. Strip off 1/2 inch (12.7 mm) of insulation from each end of the
amplifier/receiver and speaker wires.
CAUTION: Be sure to follow the correct polarity (+ to + and - to -)
when making connections. Improper connections might cause
poor stereo reproduction and reduce the bass response.
2. Insert the amplifier/receiver's + and - left speaker output wires into
the volume control's INPUT L+ (left positive) and L- (left negative)
terminals, then tighten the screws.
3. Insert the amplifier/receiver's + and - right speaker output wires
into the volume control's INPUT R+ (right positive) and R- (right
negative) terminals, then tighten the screws.
4. Insert the left speaker's + and - wire ends into the volume control's
OUTPUT L+ and L- terminals, then tighten the screws.
5. Insert the right speaker's + and - wire ends into the volume control's
OUTPUT R- and R+ terminals, then tighten the screws.
