OTE : If using a USB–to–RS-232 converter, connect the converter to the computer’s USB port and
then connect the programming cable to the 9-pin mating receptacle on the converter.
2. After opening the Addressable Amplified Speaker (as previously described), plug the programming
cable into the programming connector J1 on the speaker amplifier PCBA. Refer to Figure 18 on page
44 or Figure 19 on page 46.
3. Connect a 12–15 V dc power source to the terminal block labeled BATTERY, located on the front
section of the Addressable Amplified Speaker assembly or connect the 12–15 V dc power supply
provided with the speaker and plug into a 120 V ac source. Be sure to observe the voltage polarity in
both cases. Failure to observe polarity will result in circuit damage.
4. Verify the Programming LED illuminates on the speaker amplifier PCBA. The LED is located next
to the J1 programming connector. This illumination verifies the unit is under power and the computer
and programming cable are connected properly.
