2 ch limp VCT-2010

• crossover mode selector when used with normal, full-range systems, set this switch to “FULL”. If you wish the internal crossover to power a driver of a specific frequency range, use the “LOWPASS” or “HIGHPASS” settings.
• input level control use this control to match the outputs of your head unit to the amplifier. Starting with your head unit set at about the 2 o’clock position, increase the amp level control until distortion begins to occur, and reduce slightly from this point.
• crossover frequency control when the crossover selector switch is in “low pass” mode, this control sets the upper-frequency limit for the audio program sent to the speakers  when the crossover selector switch is in “high pass” mode, this control sets the upper-frequency limit for the audio program sent to the speakers
• bass boost Selector this control permits adjustment of the bass level up to an increase of approximately 18 dB.
• low-level inputs This amp features gold-plated RCA input jacks for high-impedance input. Use these with car stereo output which uses RCA-type connector cables.
• high-level inputs if your car stereo lacks RCA-type output jacks, you may connect speaker output leads to these input connectors.
• Aux line outputs This amp features RCA jacks for AUX line outputs. Use these for unlimited system expansion to the next VECTOR.
• power LED this indicator is illuminated in Green when power is applied.
• protection LED this indicator is illuminated in Red when built-in protection circuitry is activated.
• power fuse the fuse protects the amplifier and your car’s electrical system from short circuit conditions.
• power terminals use these connectors to deliver power, ground, and remote turn-on control to the amplifier.
• speaker connections these terminals are to guarantee high conductivity and minimum signal loss.

mounting end Installation

• our new LanzarVector Series amplifier comes complete with all required mounting hardware. When determining a suitable location in your vehicle for the amp, please remember that it is a high-power electronic device capable of generating high heat.
• For this reason, always choose a location in your vehicle *ich has low vibration, adequate ventilation, a minimum of dust, and no moisture. Be sure to mount the amp in such a manner as to allow reasonable airflow over the cooling fins.
• the location far the mounting screw holes by positioning the amp where you wish to install it and using a scribe (or one of the mounting screws) inserted in each of the mounting holes to mark the mounting surface. If the mounting surface IS carpeted, measure the hole centers and mark with a felt tip pen.
• Before attempting to fill the mounting holes, take note of any wires, lines, or other devices in your vehicle that may be located behind the mounting surface! Then drill pilot holes in the mounting surface for the mounting screws and insert them. Tighten the screws securely.

When making electrical connections to your amplifier, please observe the following:

• Use at least 8 gauge wire for power and ground connections.
• Wire the amplifier directly to the car battery.
• For the ground connection, use the shortest possible wire to a good chassis ground point.

troubleshooting

protection circuitry
The built-in protection circuitry in the Lanzar Vector Series amplifiers will disable the amplifier if it senses an input overload, a speaker short circuit, or extreme temperature conditions. When the protection circuit is activated by any of these conditions, the Protection LED will be Illuminated. If this occurs, carefully inspect the system to determine the source of the problem.

• If the shutdown was a result of a thermal overload condition, allow the amplifier to cool down before attempting to restart it.
• If the shutdown was a result of an input overload or speaker short circuit, be sure to correct the condition before restarting. The amplifier can be restarted by turning the remote power OFF and then ON again.

No output.

• Confirm that all terminal strip connections are secure and tight.
• Check both in-line and built-in fuses. Both the +12V and the Remote terminals must have +12V referenced to the chassis ground.
• Confirm that the audio signal source (car radio, equalizer, etc.) is connected and is supplying the output signal. To check if the amp is supplying a signal, unplug the cables from the signal source (but leave them plugged into the amp). Briefly tap the center pin of each disconnected RCA plug with your finger. This should produce a noise (feedback) in your speakers.

Only one channel works.

•  Confirm that all terminal strip connections are secure and tidy.
• Check the Balance control on the head unit (or other source) to verify that it is set to its midpoint.
• If you are using the Low-Level RCA input, reverse the input plugs at the amplifier (I.e., switch the L with the R). If the channels that are silent switch to the other side, the problem is either in the head unit/other source or the connecting cables.

Weak output.

• Readjust the Input Level Control(s) to better suit the input signal.

Noise in the audience.

• If the noise is a “whine” whose pitch follows the engine speed, confirm that the amplifier and any other signal sources (head unit, etc.) are properly grounded.
• If the noise is a “clicking” or “popping” noise whose rate follows the engine speed, this usually means that the vehicle is equipped with resistor spark plugs and wires, or that the Ignition Needs service.
• Check the routing of the speaker and input wires to make sure they are not adjacent to wires that interconnect lights and other accessories.
• If the above steps fail to improve or clear noise interference, the system should be checked by a professional mobile audio installer.

precautions

• Do not operate the amplifier when it is unmounted. Attach all audio system components securely within the automobile to prevent damage, especially in an accident.
• Do not mount this amplifier so that the wire connections are unprotected, or in a pinched condition, or likely to be damaged by nearby objects.
• Before making or breaking power connections in your system, åisconnæt the vehicle battery. Confirm that your head unit or other equipment is turned off while connecting the input jacks and speaker terminals.
• If you need to replace the power fuse, do so on w(a fuse identical to that supplied with the sample ER. Using a fuse of a different type or rating may result in damage that isn’t covered in the manufacturer’s warranty.
