 INTRODUCTIOn What is the RFQ5000? The RFQ5000 is a surround sound processor that is designed to enhance the listening experience for both music and movie soundtracks. The RFQ5000 is the brainchild of Jim Fosgate. Jim introduced the first Fosgate car amplifier in 1973! Since 1980 Jim has been perfecting the art of surround sound, both in the home and the car. The RFQ5000 is the culmination of Jim’s efforts combined with Rockford Fosgate engineering. The result is a processor that delivers pinpoint, precise imaging with music, and superb sound effects typical of movies. Because the RFQ5000 has only analog inputs and works totally in the analog domain, it works with ANY source, even existing systems. The RFQ5000 will properly decode Dolby Digital™, AC-3™, 5.1, or DTS™ encoded recordings. It also works wonders for traditional two channel recordings. If you are an audio fanatic or a competitor, the RFQ5000 will amaze you with its ability to deliver a lifelike stereo image. The RFQ5000 is truly a revolution in surround sound technology. Hear all your music again…for the first time! The RFQ5000 is not… The RFQ5000 is not a digital signal processing echo box! There is no digital processing done inside it, and it will not mimic the acoustic properties of your local football stadium. The RFQ5000 simply produces what the artist intended. Whatever the source, movie soundtracks, audiophile compact discs, or 10 year old cassette tapes, the RFQ5000 will reproduce them like no other processor. Movies come alive with sound effects. Music is produced with amazing accuracy, pinpoint imaging, and a sense of air and space that opens up the typical confined listening environment of the vehicle. 1  specifications Operating Voltage +10V to +16VDC Current Consumption 500mA B+ Fuse Size (internal) 2 Amp Frequency Response within one half db +/- 10hz to 50khz Signal-to-Noise Ratio better than 90db A weighted Distortion (THD + Noise) 0.5% @ 2v rms output @ 1 khz Maximum Output Level 4 volts rms Number of Channels 5 Number of Inputs 4 RCA Number of Outputs 7 RCA Dimensions 6.80”W x 8.14”L x 1.08”H (without mounting flange) (17cm x 20.35cm x 2.7cm) Dimensions 7.78”W x 8.07”L x 1.08”H (with mounting flange) (19.45cm x 20.17cm x 2.7cm) Specifications are subject to change without notice. 2  technical design features Five channel discrete surround sound processing – Utilizing high speed voltage controlled amplifiers, the RFQ5000 accurately decodes all modes of surround sound and sends the discrete information to each of 5 individual channels. Panorama control – The RFQ5000 works with any two channel analog source, but if the source unit has dual pre-amp outputs (like all Rockford Fosgate source units) you can take advantage of a feature called panorama control. Panorama control converts the fader in the source unit to a control that varies the width and depth of the stereo image. By simply fading from front to rear, you adjust the panorama control. Output level adjustments – these internal controls are used to adjust the individual output channels of the RFQ5000, so that each channel has the same amplitude (SPL) at the drivers seat listening position. LF Gain: controls the signal level of the left front output RF Gain: controls the signal level of the right front output CF Gain: controls the signal level of the center front output LB Gain: controls the signal level of the left back output RB Gain: controls the signal level of the right back output L SUB Gain: controls the signal level for the left subwoofer output R SUB Gain: controls the signal level for the right subwoofer output Center Channel Adjustment - By turning this control you adjust the relative focus of the center channel from wide & diffuse to very precise & pinpoint. While listening to a track with center channel information, simply adjust this control until the center channel blends properly with the left and right front speakers. 3  C11 R41 R45 RV4 U11 R126 R120 R129 R130 + R122 R131 R33 + J2 C48 LF GAIN R46 R132 C33 RV2 R128 j8 CENTER CHANNEL ADJUSTMENT j5 j7 j4 j6 j3 R124 R127 J8 J3 J6 J5 C61 C47 RF GAIN R47 J26 U12 R49 R48 C34 R134 R133 + R136 R50 R135 J4 J7 SURROUND SOUND PROCESSOR ROCKFORD CORPORATION PC-2804-D MADE IN USA C62 J27 R160 CF GAIN RV7 R158 R138 U13 R137 C63 LB GAIN R164 U14 R163 R142 RV9 R167 R140 R94 J28 C50 R139 R168 J29 C36 C51 R143 R183 RB GAIN R184 C64 U15 R144 R182 U16 R141 + R181 R146 C65 R145 + C37 C24 + R96 R93 R83 C35 R156 R95 R91 RV11 C49 R185 R186 J29 C45 R188 C44 R187 U17 R189 R190 C43 J29 R195 R SUB GAIN R197 + C83 J16 C84 C82 C85 4 L SUB GAIN +  External controls and adjustments Center Channel ON/OFF switch: Turn this switch to ON if the system uses a dedicated center channel speaker. When set to the OFF position, the RFQ5000 sends center channel information to the left and right front speakers. Optimum sound quality is achieved by using a dedicated center channel speaker. Remote LED Display With proper set-up the RFQ5000 will provide an enjoyable listening environment without the need for further adjustment. If you find yourself in a situation where the signal to the RFQ5000 is not stereo, (weak or AM radio like), you will need to press the button on the Remote LED display to deactivate the “steering logic” until the stereo FM signal returns. When the button is “out” the Center Channel information is distributed evenly among all channels. The Remote led display will illuminate each LED when audio information is sent to that channel. With normal use the Center Channel will appear to have most of the information. This display should not be used to adjust the signal levels when setting up the primary unit. 5  6  INSTALLATION AND SET-UP Proper set-up of the RFQ5000 is critical and is achieved by using the supplied compact disc, and a SPL (sound pressure level) measuring device. Battery operated SPL measuring devices are available for as little as $50, and will work adequately with the pink noise signal supplied on the test CD. It is necessary to adjust the output of the RFQ5000 for optimum performance so that each main speaker reproduces equal SPL. Use the output adjustment potentiometers to achieve this. If additional range is necessary to match the output levels, simply adjust the amplifier gain to compensate. Tracks 1, 2, 3, 10 and 11 on the CD are a bandwidth limited pink noise signal that rotates in a clockwise pattern in the following order; LF-CF-RF-RB-CB (phantom center)-LB and then repeats for a total of 5 minutes. Use these tracks to ensure that the processor and the amplifiers are wired to the proper speaker locations. These tracks can also be used to confirm the relative SPL of each location. Tracks 4, 9, and 12 through 17 are used to set the levels of each channel so they produce equal SPL. Simply select the track that corresponds to the channel you wish to adjust. The SPL meter should be held in a position that is equal in distance from the driver and passenger listening positions on a plane equivalent to ear level. Tracks 18 is panned pink noise starting at left front and rotating around the front, then ending at right front. Track 19 is panned pink noise starting at left front and rotating around the back, then ending at right front. The subwoofer outputs may be adjusted by ear, as the woofers are unaffected by the surround sound process. Additionally, if the system you are using has subwoofer control from the dashboard via a source unit or preamplifier, you may wire the woofers directly from the source unit to the woofer amplifiers. It is not mandatory to use the subwoofer outputs of the RFQ5000. The subwoofer outputs on the RFQ5000 are supplied as a convenience feature. 7  Tips for Optimum Performance Use five identical speakers if possible. This assures that the tonal qualities of each channel will be similar, and differences can easily be corrected with equalization. If it is not possible to have the center channel identical to the other speakers, use the closest substitute. The quality of the center channel speaker will have a great effect on the overall sound quality of the system. After the 5 main channels are adjusted to match in level, you may then experiment to find the balance between channels that works best in your system. Depending on the location of the drivers, you may find that reducing or raising the gain on some channels produces a more pleasing effect. In some systems a reduction of high frequency output of the rear speakers may improve the overall sound quality. Our suggestion is to begin with a slight cut at about 2-4khz, end with about a 6 dB cut at 20khz. This may be achieved with outboard equalization. If your system has subwoofer output that is controlled from the dashboard of the car you may send the subwoofer signal directly to the subwoofer amplifier(s). The RFQ5000 has no effect on low frequencies and the subwoofer outputs are for use in systems with no front controlled subwoofer output.

Pre-planning your system layout and best wiring routes will save installation time. When deciding how to lay out your new system, be sure that each component will be easily accessible for making adjustments. Before beginning any installation, be sure to follow these simple rules: 1. Be sure to carefully read and understand the instructions before attempting to install the RFQ5000. 2. For safety, disconnect the negative lead from the battery prior to beginning the installation. 3. For easier assembly, we suggest you run all wires prior to mounting your RFQ5000 in place. 4. Route all of the RCA cables close together and away from any high current wires. 5. Use high quality connectors for a reliable installation and to minimize signal or power loss. 6. Think before you drill! Be careful not to cut or drill into gas tanks, fuel lines, brake or hydraulic lines, vacuum lines or electrical wiring when working on any vehicle. 7. Never run wires underneath the vehicle. Running the wires inside the vehicle provides the best protection. 8. Avoid running wires over or through sharp edges. Use rubber or plastic grommets to protect any wires routed through metal, especially the firewall. 9  9. ALWAYS protect the battery and electrical system from damage with proper fusing. Install the appropriate fuseholder and fuse on the +12V power wire within 18” (45.7 cm) of the battery terminal. 10. When grounding to the chassis of the vehicle, scrape all paint from the metal to ensure a good, clean ground connection. Grounding connections should be as short as possible and always be connected to metal that is welded to the main body, or chassis, of the vehicle. mounting location The RFQ5000 consist of a primary unit and the Remote led display. The primary unit can be mounted in any location in the vehicle, however here are a few suggestions that may make set-up and installation easier. Mount the primary unit close to the amplifiers, this will make running the RCA cables easier and shorter to the amplifiers. Mount the Remote LED display display unit in the front of the vehicle interior so as not to obstruct the view of the driver but in a location where the bypass button is accessible. Hint: For the initial set-up and installation have the RFQ5000 in an easy to get at location, i.e. on extra long cables or outside the car. This will make the control adjustments easier to get at. Wiring the System For safety, disconnect the negative lead from the car battery prior to beginning the installation. The supplied connector will have three locking screws to attach the power, ground and remote turn on. The connections should read (GND) Ground, (B+) Battery positive and (REM) Remote turn on, from the top down as you look at the unit. 1. Wire the Power Connector The B+ lead should be connected to a source of non-switched 12 volts DC. Prepare a length of cable from the constant +12V by stripping 3/8" of insulation from the end of the wire. Insert the bared wire into the B+ terminal of the power connector and fasten the screw. 10  Wiring the System NOTE: The B+ lead of the audio system MUST be fused 18" or less from the vehicle's battery. Install a fuseholder, along with the necessary fuse, under the hood. Connections should be water tight. The REM lead should be connected to the remote turn-on or power antenna output from the source unit. Prepare a length of cable from the source of switched voltage by stripping 3/8" of insulation from the end of the wire. Insert the bared wire into the REM terminal of the power connector and fasten the screw. Total current consumption through this lead is negligible. The GND lead should be connected to the chassis ground of the vehicle. Prepare a length of cable (approximately 12" long) to be used for the ground lead by stripping 3/8" of insulation from each end. Insert one end of bared wire into the GND terminal of the power connector and fasten the screw. Prepare the chassis ground by scraping any paint from the metal surface and thoroughly clean the area of all dirt and grease. Strip the other end of the wire and attach a ring connector. Fasten the cable to the chassis using a non-anodized screw and star washer. 2. Connect the Source Inputs Connect the front RCA outputs from the source unit to the “LEFT FRONT IN” and “RIGHT FRONT IN” connectors on the RFQ5000. Refer to page 3 “Panorama Control” for details on rear inputs. 3. Connect the Outputs Connect the appropriate outputs from the RFQ5000 to the corresponding inputs on the amplifier(s) or signal processor(s). 11  5-Channel System with in dash Pre-Amp or Source Unit with Subwoofer Output System Diagram BAND MUTE PUSH SEL VOL COMPACT DISC PLAYER WITH DIGITAL TUNER ST DISP LOCAL LOUD RPT CD CHANGER CONTROL RDM AS/PS MODE LOUD TRACK SEEK MENU SCAN RPT RDM 1 2 3 DISC 4 Subwoofer 5 6 250Hz TUNE 1kHz 1k-20kHz Input A/B Volume R Fader F Sub Volume 40Hz Frequency 80Hz -10dB +10dB -10dB +10dB -10dB +10dB 0dB Sub Out +10dB 2-Channel or Mono Amp Not Used 5-Channel Amp L e ft F r o nt Center Channel Switch Set to “ON” C e n t e r Fr o n t L e ft R e a r R i g h t Fr o n t R ig h t R ea r 12  System using Subwoofer out of RFQ5000 System Diagram BAND MUTE PUSH SEL VOL COMPACT DISC PLAYER WITH DIGITAL TUNER ST DISP LOCAL LOUD RPT CD CHANGER CONTROL RDM AS/PS MODE TRACK MENU SEEK LOUD SCAN RPT RDM 1 2 3 DISC 4 5 6 TUNE 2-Channel or Mono Amp 5-Channel Amp L e f t Fr o n t C en t e r F ro n t L ef t R ea r R ig h t R ea r Center Channel Switch Set to “ON” 13 R i g h t F ro n t  Troubleshooting Symptom RFQ5000 does not turn on (Power LED is off) RFQ5000 has no sound (Power LED is on) Turn-On Pop Diagnosis Remedy Voltage applied to the REM terminal of the RFQ5000 is not between 5 and 15.5 volts.

La preparación adecuada del RFQ5000 es esencial, y se logra utilizando el disco compacto incluido y un dispositivo para medir el SPL (nivel de presión de sonido). Los dispositivos de medición de SPL que funcionan a batería están disponibles por tan sólo $50, y funcionarán en forma adecuada con la señal de ruido rosado provista en el disco compacto de prueba. Es necesario ajustar la salida del RFQ5000 para lograr un resultado óptimo, de modo que cada parlante principal reproduzca un SPL equivalente. Use los potenciómetros de ajuste de salida para este paso. Si es necesario un alcance adicional para igualar los niveles de salida, ajuste simplemente la ganancia del amplificador para compensar. Las bandas 1, 2, 3, 10 y 11 del disco compacto son señales de ruido rosado limitado por ancho de banda que gira en una configuración en el sentido de las agujas del reloj en el orden siguiente: ID – CD – DD – DT – CT (centro fantasma)-IT y luego se repite durante un total de cinco minutos. Use estas bandas para asegurar que el procesador y los amplificadores están conectados a los lugares de parlantes adecuados. Estas bandas también pueden utilizarse para confirmar el SPL relativo de cada lugar. Las bandas 4, 9 y 12 a 17 se utilizan para fijar los niveles de cada canal para que generen un SPL equivalente. Seleccione simplemente la banda que corresponda al canal que desea ajustar. El medidor de SPL debe sostenerse en una posición que esté a la misma distancia de los lugares desde los cuales escuchan el pasajero y el conductor en un plano equivalente al nivel del oído. La banda 18 es ruido rosado panorámico que comienza adelante a la izquierda y gira alrededor del frente, luego finaliza adelante a la derecha. La banda 19 es ruido rosado panorámico que comienza a la izquierda adelante y gira alrededor de la parte posterior, luego finaliza adelante a la derecha. Las salidas del subwoofer pueden ajustarse de oído, ya que los woofers no se ven afectados por el proceso de sonido ambiental. Además, si el sistema que está utilizando tiene control de subwoofer desde el tablero mediante una unidad de fuente o un preamplificador, usted puede conectar los woofers directamente de la unidad de fuente a los amplificadores del woofer. No es obligatorio usar las salidas del subwoofer del RFQ5000. Las salidas del subwoofer del RFQ5000 se proveen para su conveniencia. 18  De ser posible, use cinco parlantes idénticos. Esto asegura que las calidades tonales de cada canal sean similares, y las diferencias se puedan corregir fácilmente con la ecualización. Si no es posible lograr que el canal central sea idéntico a los otros parlantes, use lo más parecido que tenga. La calidad del parlante de canal central tendrá un gran efecto sobre la calidad general de sonido del sistema. Después de haber ajustado los cinco canales principales para igualar su nivel, puede luego experimentar para encontrar el equilibrio entre canales que mejor funcione en su sistema. De acuerdo a la ubicación de los parlantes, encontrará que la reducción o el aumento de la ganancia en algunos canales produce un efecto más placentero. En algunos sistemas, una reducción de la salida de alta frecuencia en los parlantes posteriores puede mejorar la calidad general del sonido. Nuestra sugerencia es que comience con una ligera reducción alrededor del extremo de 2-4 khz, y termine con una reducción de 6 dB en 20 khz. Esto puede realizarse con una ecualización exterior. Si su sistema tiene una salida de subwoofer que se controla desde el tablero del auto, puede enviar la señal del subwoofer directamente al amplificador o amplificadores del subwoofer. El RFQ5000 no tiene efecto sobre las bajas frecuencias y las salidas del subwoofer son para ser utilizadas en sistemas sin salida de subwoofer delantera controlada. Cableado del conector El terminal B+ debe ser conectado a una fuente no conmutada de 12V continuous. Prepare un cable de la longitud adecuada desde la fuente de 12V+ y pele 1cm de aislante del cable en el extremo que vaya a conectar al aparato. Inserte el cable pelado en el orificio B+ del conector y asegúrelo con el tornillo. NOTA: El terminal B+ de sistema de audio debe estar protegido con un fusible no más lejos de 45cm de la bateria. Instale un portafusibles y el correspondiente fusible en el compartimento del motor. Las conexiones deben ser resistentes al agua. El terminal REM ha de conectarse al terminal remote o antena de su radio-cassette. Prepare un cable de la longitud adecuada desde la fuente y pele 1cm de aislante del cable en el extremo que vaya a conectar al aparato. Inserte el cable pelado en el orificio REM del conector y asegúrelo con el tornillo. El consumo de corriente de este terminal es despriciable. 19  El terminal GND ha de conectarse al chasis del vehiculo. Prepare un cable de la longitud adecuada (mejor no más de 30cm) y pele 1cm de aislante del cable en el extremo que vaya a conectar al aparato. Inserte el cable pelado en el orificio GND del conector y asgúrelo con el tornillo. Antes de conectar a chasis elimine la pintura de la superficie del metal y limpie la superficie de polvo y grasa. Pele el otro extremo del cable y añádale un conector de anillo. Asegure el cable al chasis con un tornillo no anodizado. INSTALLATION DU RFQ5000 - FRANÇAIS Veuillez lire les instructions suivantes pour l'installation de ce produit. Ne pas les suivre pourrait causer des blessures ou endommager le véhicule. Il est essentiel d’effectuer une bonne installation du RFQ5000. Pour ce faire, utilisez le disque compact fourni ainsi qu’un appareil de mesure de niveau de pression acoustique (NPA). On peut se procurer de tels appareils à piles pour aussi peu que 50 dollars. Ceux-ci sont tout à fait adéquats pour fonctionner avec le signal de bruit rose fourni dans le disque compact d’essai. Il est nécessaire d’ajuster la sortie du RFQ5000 de manière à obtenir des performances optimales afin que chaque haut-parleur puisse reproduire un NPA égal. À cette fin, utilisez-vous les potentiomètres de réglage de signaux de sortie. Ajustez le gain de l’amplificateur au besoin pour le faire correspondre aux niveaux de sortie. Les pistes 1, 2, 3, 10 et 11 du disque comportent un signal de bruit rose à bande passante limitée qui tourne dans le sens des aiguilles d’une montre comme suit : avant gauche, avant centre, avant droit, arrière droit, arrière centre (centre fantôme), arrière gauche. Ce mouvement est répété pendant 5 minutes. Utilisez ces pistes pour vérifier que le processeur et les amplificateurs sont branchés aux haut-parleurs appropriés. Ces pistes permettent aussi de confirmer le NPA relatif de chaque emplacement. Les pistes 4, 9 et 12 à 17 servent à établir les niveaux de chaque canal pour produire un NPA égal. Il vous suffit de sélectionner la piste correspondant au canal que vous désirez régler. L’appareil de mesure de NPA doit être positionné à mi-distance du passager et du conducteur, au niveau de l’oreille. 20  INSTALLATION DU RFQ5000 - FRANÇAIS La piste 18 contient du bruit rose se déplaçant d’un mouvement panoramique du côté avant gauche vers l’arrière pour finir sur le côté avant droit. La piste 19 contient du bruit rose se déplaçant d’un mouvement panoramique du côté avant gauche vers l’arrière pour finir sur le côté avant droit. Vous pouvez régler les sorties du subwoofer à l’oreille car les caissons de graves ne sont pas affectés par le traitement de son d’ambiance. De plus, si votre système comporte une commande de subwoofer située sur le tableau de bord et opérant via une source sonore ou un préamplificateur, vous pouvez brancher les caissons directement de la source sonore aux amplificateurs du woofer. Vous n’êtes pas obligé d’utiliser les sorties de subwoofer du RFQ5000. Celles-ci sont fournies à titre de fonctionnalité supplémentaire. Utilisez cinq haut-parleurs identiques si possible. Cela permet d’assurer que la tonalité de chaque canal soit similaire et de corriger facilement toute différence par égalisation. S’il n’est pas possible que le canal central soit identique aux autres haut-parleurs, utilisez alors un modèle qui s’en rapproche le plus. La qualité du haut-parleur central affecte grandement la qualité de son globale du système. Une fois le niveau des 5 canaux principaux réglé au même niveau, expérimentez un peu pour trouver le meilleur équilibre sonore pour votre système. En fonction de l’emplacement des enceintes, il se peut qu’en augmentant ou diminuant le gain de certains canaux, vous puissiez obtenir un effet sonore plus agréable. Dans le cas de certains systèmes, une réduction de la sortie haute fréquence des haut-parleurs arrière peut produire un meilleur son. Nous vous suggérons de commencer par une réduction légère au niveau de 2-4 kHz et une coupure d’environ 6 dB au niveau de 20 kHz. Vous pouvez accomplir cela à l’aide d’un égalisateur hors tableau de bord. Si la sortie de subwoofer de votre système est contrôlée à partir du tableau de bord de votre véhicule, vous pouvez envoyer le signal du subwoofer directement du (des) amplificateur(s) du subwoofer. Le RFQ5000 n’a aucun effet sur les basses fréquences et les sorties du subwoofer sont conçues pour des systèmes qui ne comportent aucune sortie de subwoofer contrôlée par l’avant. 21  Câblage du connecteur d'alimentation La position B+ doit être connectée à un positif 12 volt permanent. Coupez à bonne longueur le câble venant de la batterie et dénudez le sur environ 2 cm. Introduisez la partie dénudée dans le terminal B+ du connecteur d'alimentation et serrez la vis. ATTENTION: Le conducteur B+ du système audio doit être muni d'un fusible le plus près possible de la batterie du véhicule. Installez le porte-fusible sous le capot moteur. Les connections doivent être étanches. La position REM doit être connectée à la sortie antenne électrique de l'appareil radio. Coupez à bonne longueur le câble venant de la radio et dénudez le sur environ 2 cm. Introduisez la partie dénudée dans le terminal REM du connecteur d'alimentation et serrez la vis. La consommation de courant de cette entrée est négligeable. La position GND doit être connectée au chassis du véhicule. Coupez à bonne longueur le câble venant du chassis et dénudez le sur environ 2 cm. Introduisez la partie dénudée dans le terminal GND du connecteur d'alimentation et serrez la vis. Pour obtenir un bon contact de masse au chassis, grattez la peinture à l'endroit de la connection et dégaissez-le ensuite. Attachez le cable avec une cosse ronde, une vis galvanisée et une rondelle étoile. RFQ5000 EINBAU - DEUTSCH Bitte lesen Sie die folgende Gebrauchsanleitung sorgfältig durch. Dies kann Sie und das Produkt vor Fehlern oder sogar vor Beschädigung schützen. Die richtige Installation des RFQ5000 ist von entscheidender Bedeutung und wird erreicht, indem die mitgelieferte Compact Disc und ein Schalldruckpegel-Messgerät (SDP-Messgerät) verwendet werden. Batteriebetriebene SDP-Messgeräte sind schon für einen Preis von ca. $50.- erhältlich und erzielen mit dem Rosa-Rausch-Signal auf der Test-CD durchaus ordentliche Ergebnisse. Es ist erforderlich, die Ausgabeleistung des RFQ5000 optimal einzustellen, so dass jeder der Hauptlautsprecher den gleichen SDP wiedergibt. Um dies zu erreichen, muss die Ausgabeleistung mit dem Potentiometer eingestellt werden. Sollte zur Angleichung der Ausgabepegel ein zusätzlicher Bereich benötigt werden, muss lediglich der Verstärkungsfaktor verändert werden um zu kompensieren. 22  RFQ5000 EINBAU - DEUTSCH Die Spuren 1, 2, 3, 10 und 11 auf der CD sind Rosa-Rausch-Signale mit begrenzter Bandbreite, die im Uhrzeigersinn in der folgenden Reihenfolge rotieren: LF-CF-RF-RB-CB (Phantommitte)-LB und dieses Muster 5 Minuten lang wiederholen. Verwenden Sie diese Spuren, um zu gewährleisten, dass der Prozessor und die Verstärker mit den richtigen Lautsprecheranschlüssen verbunden sind. Diese Spuren dienen auch zur Bestätigung der relativen SDP-Position. Die Spuren 4, 9 und 12 bis 17 dienen zur Einstellung der Pegel auf jedem Kanal, so dass sie gleiche SDP erzeugen. Wählen Sie einfach die Spur, die mit dem Kanal korrespondiert, den Sie justieren wollen. Das SDP-Messgerät sollte dazu in einer Position gehalten werden, die gleich weit von Fahrer und Beifahrer entfernt ist und die der Ohrhöhe entspricht. Spur 18 ist ein mitziehendes Rosa-Rauschen, dass vorn links beginnt, vorn herum rotiert und schließlich vorn rechts endet. Spur 19 ist ein mitziehendes Rosa-Rauschen, dass vorn links beginnt, nach hinten rotiert und schließlich vorn rechts endet. Die Ausgabeleistungen der Basslautsprecher können nach Gehör justiert werden, da diese vom Rundum-Soundeffekt nicht berührt werden. Sollte Ihre Anlage über Regler für die Basslautsprecher am Armaturenbrett verfügen, die mit einer Spannungsquelle oder einem Vorverstärker verbunden sind, können die Basslautsprecher direkt von der Spannungsquelle mi de Basslautsprecherverstärkern verbunden werden. Es ist dann nicht zwingend, dass die Basslautsprecherausgänge des RFQ5000 benutzt werden. Die Basslautsprecherausgänge am RFQ5000 werden lediglich als praktisches Zubehör mitgeliefert. Es sollten, wenn möglich, fünf identische Lautsprecher benutzt werden. Dies gewährleistet, dass die Tonqualität auf jedem Kanal ähnlich ist. Unterschiede lassen sich leicht mit dem Equalizer korrigieren. Wenn es nicht möglich ist, den Mittelkanal identisch mit den anderen Lautsprechern einzustellen, verwenden Sie den nächstliegenden Ersatz. Die Qualität des Mittelkanal-Lautsprechers hat ents cheidenden Einfluss auf die Gesamtsoundqualität der Anlage. Nachdem die Pegel der 5 Hauptkanäle angeglichen sind, kann damit begonnen werden, die Balance zwischen den Kanälen zu finden, die für Ihre Anlage am besten ist. Abhängig von der Position des Fahrers, kann es durchaus sein, dass eine Reduzierung oder Erhöhung des Verstärkungsfaktors in einigen Kanälen einen angenehmeren Effekt erzielt. 23  In einigen Anlagen kann durch die Reduzierung der Hochfrequenzausgabe in den hinteren Boxen durchaus eine Verbesserung der Gesamtsoundqualität erzielt werden. Wir empfehlen, mit einer geringfügigen Herabsetzung bei ca. 2-4khz zu beginnen und bis zu einem 6dB-Schnitt bei 20khz zu gehen. Dies lässt sich ggf. durch Außerbord-Entzerrung erreichen. Ist die Ausgabeleistung der Basslautsprecher Ihrer Anlage vom Armaturenbrett aus regelbar, kann das Basslautsprechersignal direkt zu den Basslautsprecherverstärkern gesendet werden. Das RFQ5000 hat keinen Effekt auf Niederfrequenzen und die Basslautsprecherausgänge sind für die Verwendung in Anlagen ohne frontgeregelte Basslautsprecherausgänge ausgelegt. Anschluβ des Stromsteckers Der B+ Anschlub sollte mit einem Dauerplus Ihres Fahrzeuges verbunden werden. Verwenden Sie ein Kabel das konstant 12 Volt hat und isolieren es am Ende ca. einen 1/2 cm ab. Stecken Sie es dann in das B+ Terminal und ziehen die Schraube fest. Achtung: Das B+ Kabel Mub 46cm nach der Stromaufnahme abgesichert sein. Installieren Sie einen Sicherungshalter mit der passenden Sicherung und stellen Sie sicher das er Spritzwasser geschützt ist. Die Einschaltleitung sollten Sie von der Remote-oder Anten-nenspannung Ihres Radios abgreifen. Isolieren Sie es ca. einen 1/2 cm am Ende des Kabels ab und schrauben es im Remote-Terminal fest Die Spannung die in diesem Kabel fliebt ist sehr gering. Das Erdungskabel sollte direkt mit der Erdung des Fahrzeuges verbunden werden. Das Kabel sollte nicht länger wie 30 cm sein. Isolieren Sie wieder das Ende ab und schrauben es im Ground Terminal des OEQ2 fest. Der Erdungspunkt an Ihrem Fahrzeug sollte Lackfrei und sauber sein. Dort sollten Sie dann das andere Ende des Erdungskabels befestigen. Stellen Sie sicher das Sie einen guten Massepunkt wahlen. INSTALLAZIONE DELL'RFQ5000 - ITALIANO Leggere attentamente le istruzioni riportate in questo manuale. Non osservare le correte procedure di impiego puó provacare danni al veicolo o a voi stessi. 24  INSTALLAZIONE DELL'RFQ5000 - ITALIANO Una corretta configurazione dell'RFQ5000 è fondamentale; ciò è possibile tramite il CD-ROM fornito e un dispositivo di misura SPL (Sound Pressure Level, livello di pressione sonora). Sono disponibili dispositivi di misura SPL alimentati a batterie anche a $50 che possono funzionare correttamente con il segnale di rumore rosa fornito sul CD di collaudo. Per avere prestazioni ottimali è necessario regolare l'uscita dell'RFQ5000, in modo che ciascun altoparlante principale produca un SPL uguale. A tale scopo, utilizzare i potenziometri di regolazione dell'uscita. Se per soddisfare i livelli di uscita è necessaria una gamma ulteriore, regolare il guadagno dell'amplificatore in modo da compensare. Le tracce 1, 2, 3, 10 e 11 del CD costituiscono un segnale di rumore rosa di banda limitato che ruota in senso orario nel seguente ordine: SA-CA-DA-DP-CP (centro virtuale o "phantom center")SP. Viene quindi ripetuto per un totale di 5 minuti. Utilizzare queste tracce in modo da assicurare che il processore e gli amplificatori siano collegati alle posizioni corrette degli altoparlanti. Le tracce possono anche servire per confermare l'SPL relativo di ciascuna posizione. Le tracce 4, 9 e 12-17 servono per impostare i livelli di ciascun canale in modo che producano SPL uguali. Basta selezionare la traccia che corrisponde al canale da regolare. L'indicatore dell'SPL deve essere tenuto in posizione tale che risulti equidistante dalle posizioni di ascolto di guidatore e passeggero, considerate al livello delle orecchie. La traccia 18 è un rumore rosa eseguito in "panoramica", iniziando dalla posizione anteriore sinistra, ruotando quindi davanti per terminare nella posizione anteriore destra. La traccia 19 è un rumore rosa eseguito in "panoramica", iniziando dalla posizione anteriore sinistra, ruotando quindi dietro per terminare nella posizione anteriore destra. Le uscite dei subwoofer possono essere regolate a orecchio, in quanto sui woofer la procedura di "surround sound" non ha alcuna influenza. Inoltre, se il sistema utilizzato dispone di un controllo del subwoofer da cruscotto tramite unità sorgente o preamplificatore, è possibile collegare i woofer direttamente dall'unità sorgente agli amplificatori per woofer. Non è strettamente necessario utilizzare le uscite subwoofer dell'RFQ5000; tali uscite sono presenti solo per comodità. 25  Se possibile, utilizzare cinque altoparlanti uguali. In tal modo si assicura che le qualità tonali di ciascun canale saranno simili, con la possibilità di correggere le differenze tramite equalizzazione. Se non è possibile avere il canale centrale uguale agli altri altoparlanti, utilizzare un sostituto il più simile possibile. La qualità dell'altoparlante del canale centrale ha un effetto determinante sulla qualità sonora complessiva del sistema. Una volta regolati i 5 canali principali, ottenendo così livelli corrispondenti, potrebbe essere necessario effettuare alcune prove per trovare il bilanciamento tra i canali più adatto al sistema in uso. A seconda della posizione del guidatore, si potrà riscontrare che la riduzione o l'aumento del guadagno su alcuni canali dà un effetto più soddisfacente. In alcuni sistemi, una riduzione dell'uscita in alta frequenza degli altoparlanti posteriori può migliorare la qualità sonora complessiva. Suggeriamo di iniziare con un taglio contenuto a circa 24 kHz, per finire con un taglio di 6 dB a 20 kHz. Ciò è possibile tramite equalizzazione esterna. Se il sistema in uso dispone di uscita subwoofer controllata direttamente dal cruscotto della vettura, è possibile inviare il segnale per il subwoofer direttamente agli amplificatori del subwoofer. L'RFQ5000 non influisce in alcun modo sulle frequenze basse e le uscite subwoofer sono destinate all'uso in sistemi senza uscita subwoofer con controllo frontale. Cablare il connettore di alimentazione. Alla terminazione siglata B+ connettere un cavo spellato per circa 8mm inserendolo nel foro apposito e fermandolo serrando la vite. Collegare l'altra estremitá del cavo ad un polsitivo costante (sempre presente) dell'auto. NOTA: Il cavo positivo del sistema audio deve essere protetto da un fusibile posto a non piú di 40cm dalla terminazione positiva della batteria e deve essere a tenuta d'acqua. Alla terminazione REM connettere un cavo proveniente dal remote dell'autoradio (es. antenna elettrica). Il consumo di corrente é assolutament trascurabile. Alla terminazione GND connettere un cavo opportunamente portato alla massa del telaio deve essere pulito dalla vernice e da eventuali grassi o siliconi ed il cavo deve essere solidamente fissato ipiegando un terminale ad anello ed una vite non anodizzata. 26  Track 1: Track 2: Track 3: Track 4: Track 5: Track 6: Track 7: Track 8: Track 9: Track 10: Track 11: Track 12: Track 13: Track 14: Track 15: Track 16: Track 17: Track 18: Track 19: Channel Identification 5 sec. duration each location starting at CF Noise Sequencer 1 sec. duration each location starting at CF Noise Sequencer 5 sec. duration each location starting at CF CF noise (1:00) RF noise (1:00) RB Noise (1:00) CB Noise (1:00) LB Noise (1:00) LF Noise (1:00) Noise Sequencer 1 sec. duration each location starting at CF Noise Sequencer 5 sec. duration each location starting at CF CF Noise (1:00) RF Noise (1:00) RB Noise (1:00) CB Noise (1:00) LB Noise (1:00) LF Noise (1:00) Panned Noise from Left Front around the Front to Right Front.
