TM Introduction L LT TO O Dear Customer, Thank you for choosing this ALTO Mobile ADP Series Full-Range Class-D Power Amplifier. We hope you will enjoy using this product as much as we enjoyed developing it. The ADP Series is the result of considerable research and development in our R&D centers in Europe and the Far East. It is a very close cousin of ALTO's professional Class-D amplifier models. We've been designing products for musicians and recording studios for a long time, so the car audi

TM Installation & Setup Instructions L LT TO O Mounting the Unit Your ADP Series Power Amplifier has two fixing 'ears' at each side, allowing it to be firmly screwed to a suitable surface. It may be mounted vertically or horizontally, but avoid mounting the unit upside down (suspended from a shelf, for example) since this may affect efficient heat dissipation. Do not mount the unit under carpeting or within a small sealed enclosure, as this will prevent proper ventilation. Take care not to mo

TM Installation & Setup Instructions L LT TO O You will find a Power Input terminal block at the far end of the side panel. There are three connections to be made: +12V The terminal marked +12V should be connected to a permanent (i.e. not ignition switched) positive 12 Volt supply from the vehicle battery. GND The terminal marked GND (Ground) should be connected to a cable which is terminated to the vehicle chassis. Ensure that the point where this cable attaches to the vehicle chassis provi

TM Installation & Setup Instructions L LT TO O Use the correct size Allen Key to tighten the terminal screws. Before reconnecting power to the circuit, double check all connections are correct and ensure there are no stray strands of wire which could touch the chassis of the ADP amplifier or any of the other terminals. The power-on LED next to the power input terminal block will light to show the unit is receiving power. This is a 2 colour LED. Green means that all is working correctly. Red m

TM Installation & Setup Instructions L LT TO O See how far you can take the volume control before the signal begins to clip (you may need to reduce the amp gain if it gets too loud). If you see it clip on the scope, back off the volume control a little. Now increase the gain on the amp until you find the highest level before distortion or visible clipping. Bear in mind that the maximum level may be limited by your speakers - don't over-drive them. 6 6 Low-Pass & High-Pass Filt

TM Brief Technical Overview L LT TO O Although commonly referred to as a "digital" amplifier, Class-D is more accurately described as a Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) amplifier. A PWM amplifier converts the music (which is a complex arrangement of sine waves) into a series of pulses. The major benefit of this design is its great efficiency, which is the relationship between the amount of audio output power delivered to the speakers and the amount of power required from the vehicle's power supply
