RCF S5012 [7/20] Connections

ENGLISH

INSTALLATION

CONNECTIONS

MEDIA subwoofers shall be placed on the oor (on a place surface).

Satellite loudspeakers are to be installed securely by qualied personnel, respecting all

safety standards. Make sure the support structure (walls / ceilings) has the necessary

mechanical characteristics for the loudspeaker weight, without the risk of a fall that could

damage things or cause an injury. Use attachments elements suitable for walls / ceilings

(e.g. wall plugs for bricks, for concrete, etc.).

WARNING: loudspeaker connections should be only made by qualied and experienced

personnel having the technical know-how or sufcient specic instructions (to ensure

that connections are made correctly) in order to prevent any electrical danger.

To prevent any risk of electric shock, do not connect loudspeakers when the amplier is

switched on. Before turning the system on, check all connections and make sure there are

no accidental short circuits.

The entire sound system shall be designed and installed in compliance with the current

local laws and regulations regarding electrical systems.

‘Media’ series loudspeakers are designed for indoor use only.

If installed outdoor, loudspeakers shall be protected against water.

The impedance of each subwoofer is (according to the model):

8  (S 5012), 4  (S 5020, S 5022).

The total impedance of multiple identical subwoofers linked in parallel on the same line is

given by the impedance value of a single subwoofer divided by their quantity (impedance

/ quantity).

For example:

- The total impedance of two S 5012 linked in parallel is 4  (8  / 2)

- The total impedance of two S 5020 or S 5022 linked in parallel is 2  (4  / 2).

Connect the positive wire (amplier ‘+’ output) to the pin ‘INPUT +’ of the 4-pin

EUROBLOCK connector. Connect the negative wire (amplier ‘–’ output) to the pin

‘INPUT –’ of the 4-pin EUROBLOCK connector.

The ‘LINK +’ and ‘LINK –’ pins are useful to link another subwoofer in parallel.
