Phase Technologies P3-35 Configuration guide

The P3-35 is a 2 or 3 channel amplier with Dolby Digital® decoding. It is designed to be used with either a Bluetooth, analog,
or digital input from a TV or other audio source. With a digital input, it automatically senses Dolby Digital and PCM and switches
modes. The P3-35 takes the input signal from an audio source, decodes it and outputs either a 2 or 3 channel amplied signal
to a sound bar or set of speakers. When set in the 2 channel mode, it will take a stereo or multi-channel signal and mix it down
to 2 output channels (left and right). When set in the 3 channel mode, it will take a stereo or multi-channel signal and mix it into
3 output channels (left, right and center). In either mode there is a sub out option.

WEATHERPROOF BOX INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
PRIOR TO INSTALLING:
The Weatherproof Box Kit comes fully assembled. Follow the instructions below for box mounting and amp set up.
1. Select the appropriate mounting location. While this box is weatherproof, it is best to locate the box where it is will not be
exposed to direct water. The Weatherproof box must not be submerged under water. It is recommended that the location be
near a hardwired weatherproof outlet with a GFCI. NO EXTENTION CORDS!
2. Be sure to mount the Weatherproof box such that the rubber membranes are facing down.
3. Mount Weatherproof box using appropriate mounting equipment (not supplied). Be sure the mounting location can support
the weight of the amp and box and that the box is securely installed.
4. NOTE: The volume control knob is disabled. Amplier volume must be controlled by the input device: phone, audio player,
etc.
5. Amp comes preset in Sleep Mode. Sleep Mode enables auto-on input signal sensing and will turn the P3-35 on when there
is a signal present and will automatically turn off when there is no signal for 5-7 minutes.
6. The Weatherproof box comes equipped with a 12V cooling fan installed above the amplier. The fan will turn on and off
automatically whenever the amplier is running. No set up or adjustments are required for this fan.
WEATHERPROOF BOX INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (CONTINUED)
PREPARE THE BOX - CUTTING THE MEMBRANE
1. Use a sharp knife to cut a “+” in the rubber membrane on
the left side of the box. The “+” cut must be large enough for
the IEC power cord connector to t through the membrane.
2. Use a sharp knife and cut a “+” in the rubber membrane on
the right side of the box. The “+” cut must be large enough
for all of the required speaker wires and the signal input wire
to pass through.
PREPARE THE BOX - CONTINUED
1. Push the power cord through the “+” cut in the membrane on the left side of the box and connect it to the power supply.
2. Connect the speaker cables (not provided) to the supplied Euroblock (as described above). Push the Euroblock connector
through the “+” cut in the right membrane and plug into the amp.
3. If desired, push the RS232 control wires through the membrane on the right side and connect to the amp (as described
above).
4. If desired, push the analog or digital input wire through the membrane on the right side and connect to the amp (as
described above).
5. Select the appropriate dip switch setting for the desired features and performance (as described above).
6. If using the BlueTooth connection, position the antenna such that it will not interfere with the box lid when it is closed.
7. Close the Weatherproof box lid. If required, secure the lid with the included screw.
8. Now you are ready to connect to electricity. Connect power cord to GFCI outlet.
STANDBY AND SLEEP SETTINGS
There are two modes the P3-35 can operate in; Standby and Sleep. Setting the P3-35 in the standby mode disables the auto-
on input signal sensing. In this mode the P3-35 can only be turned on by pressing the Volume control On/Off switch or through
RS232 control.
Setting the P3-35 in the sleep mode enables auto-on input signal sensing and will turn the P3-35 on when there is a signal
present and will automatically turn off when there is no signal for 5-7 minutes.
Note: The P3-35 goes into standby mode 5-7 minutes after it stops sensing a signal provided the amp is set to standby mode.
The P3-35 will be switched into networked sleep mode in 5-7 minutes after it stops sensing a Bluetooth or wired audio signal
provided the amp is set in sleep mode.
SETTING THE OPERATION MODE
1. With the on/off switch in the off position (Red LED).
2. Press and hold the on/off switch for 10 seconds or until the LED starts blinking for 3 seconds.
3. If it blinks Blue it is in Sleep mode
If it blinks Green it is in Standby mode.
4. To change the mode repeat step 2.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules / Industry Canada
licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this
device must accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d’Industrie Canada applicables
aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L’exploitation est autorisée aux deux
conditions suivantes : (1) l’appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2)
l’utilisateur de l’appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi,
même si le brouillage est susceptible d’en compromettre le fonctionnement.
Changes or modications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
in a residential installation. This equipment generates uses and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with
the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off
and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
—Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
—Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
—Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
—Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate
using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for
the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference
to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that
the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that
necessary for successful communication.
Conformément à la réglementation d’Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur
radio peut fonctionner avec une antenne d’un type et d’un gain maximal
(ou inférieur) approuvé pour l’émetteur par Industrie Canada. Dans le but
de réduire les risques de brouillage radioélectrique à l’intention des autres
utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d’antenne et son gain de sorte que la
puissance isotrope rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l’intensité
nécessaire à l’établissement d’une communication satisfaisante.
To satisfy FCC / IC RF exposure requirements, a separation distance of 20
cm or more should be maintained between the antenna of this device and
persons during device operation.
To ensure compliance, operations at closer than this distance is not
recommended.
Les antennes installées doivent être situées de facon à ce que la population
ne puisse y être exposée à une distance de moin de 20 cm. Installer les
antennes de facon à ce que le personnel ne puisse approcher à 20 cm ou
moins de la position centrale de l’
antenne.
La FCC des éltats-unis stipule que cet appareil doit être en tout temps
éloigné d’au moins 20 cm des personnes pendant son functionnement.
This radio transmitter (identify the device by certication number, or model
number if Category II) has been approved by Industry Canada to operate
with the antenna types listed below with the maximum permissible gain
and required antenna impedance for each antenna type indicated. Antenna
types not included in this list, having a gain greater than the maximum gain
indicated for that type, are strictly prohibited for use with this device.
Gain of antenna: 2.0dBi max.
