TES-100 Mono Motion System
TES-100 INSTALLATION MANUAL
B. TES-100 Mono Motion System:
System includes: one (1) TES-100 Actuator and three (3) Motion Isolators*
1. Install Motion Isolators:
If possible, remove all of the furniture’s supporting feet. Position three Motion Isolators in place of the supporting feet
(ref: fig. 7). Orient each Isolator such that the flat side faces upward (open side down). Use the supplied #8 wood screw
and washer to secure the Motion Isolator. A 1/8 inch pilot hole may be necessary. If removal of the furniture’s feet is
impractical, simply place the Motion Isolators under the supporting feet (ref: fig. 8).
2. Connect Actuators to Amplifier:
If using a Crowson Integrated Motion Amplifier, connect the signal wires according to fig.9. If you wish to use a non-
Crowson amplifier, connect the signal wires according to fig.10. The TES-100 Actuator should be powered by an amplifier
producing between 50 and 500 Watts RMS. Without the use of a Crowson Bass Management Pre-Amplifier, standard audio
amplifiers are unsuited to power TES-100 Actuators.
Use standard speaker wire to connect the actuator to the dedicated amplifier. Ensure that the polarity (positive and
negative) between the amplifier and TES-100 Actuator is consistent. Use 18AWG or larger wire. Binding posts accept
banana style plugs or bare wire. If using bare wire, strip 1/2 inch of insulation from the end. Depress the binding posts to
open the wire terminals and insert the bare wire or banana plugs.
3. Install Actuator:
Place the TES-100 Actuator under the chair in place of a rear supporting foot. (Actuator may be placed under the rear or
front feet, though rear feet may afford the Actuator more protection from errant objects.) If the chair’s supporting feet
are not removed, place the rear foot on the center of the TES-100 Actuator. Orient the TES Actuator such that the binding
posts face towards the front of the couch or chair (ref: fig. 7).
*Note: Additional Motion Isolators are available for seating with more than four (4) feet, such as sectional couches.
