We recommend that you use a high quality wire constructed of fine, multi-strand 
copper 10-gauge and up. Wire with a gauge of 16 may be used for short runs of less 
than  twenty  feet.  We  do  not  recommend  that  you  use  any  wires  with  a  gauge 
equivalent of 18 or higher due to the power loss and performance degradation.

1.   RCA Input:

Accepts low-level signal from any source, such as a processor or receiver. From 0.4 
Vac up to 6 Volt AC.

2.   Input Selector:

To maintain signal integrity Cinénova-7 provides you with an “Input Selector 
Switch”. This gives you (installer) the option to select between RCA or XLR 
inputs.

3.   Fully Balanced XLR Inputs:

We recommend the use of fully balanced XLR inputs in cases when the distance 
between the Cinénova and the audio source is excessive and susceptible to noise 
interference.

AC Input Connector:

IEC Power Receptacle    

7.    

  

Input Sensitivity:

In order for the Cinénova Turn-ON to be controlled via another source, connect the 
12VDC trigger input to the 12VDC source output (polarity is not an issue).   From 
your source, 12VD should have over 20mA. Then set the manual power switch to 
OFF and the circuit breaker to ON. Now any time the Cinénova detects an incoming 
12VDC signal it will automatically power on.
