- Page 3 Input signals ranging from 2Vrms to 20Vrms will produce up to 10Vrms RCA output from maximum to minimum gain. For factory amplifiers with more than 20Vrms signal or if the link6’s output is too high for the connected aftermarket amplifier(s) with all gains at minimum, internal jumpers are available to reduce the input sensitivity range by half (-6dB) for 4Vrms up to 40Vrms.
- Page 4 (distortion) occurs, whether the source is main speaker level or AUX input. Each will be dimly lit just before the onset of clipping and full bright at clipping. Since the link6 can produce up to 10Vrms output before clipping, it is likely that gain(s) will need to be reduced below the illumination point(s) to match your amplifier(s) maximum input capability or optimize source...
- Page 5 flashing red, solid blue and flashing blue. In the default system Type-1, the only LED indication is solid red when the link6 is powered on. For the other three system types, solid red indicates Main speaker level source is selected and solid blue is for AUX source. Flashing indicates CH5/6 level mode is active for the current source, which will timeout after 5 seconds if no adjustments are made.

Page 6: System Examples
Remote Input (REM IN): If a switched +12V or remote trigger wire is available, it is recommended to connect it to the REM IN terminal. If unavailable, the link6 also has an auto turn-on circuit that simultaneously detects audio signal from SPK and AUX inputs as well as DC-offset from SPK inputs. While auto turn-on will work well in most applications, a +12V trigger may be required for satisfactory results under certain vehicle or system conditions. - Page 7 Ÿ For systems with a main speaker level source that will serve as the master volume control, and an auxiliary source is connected to the link6’s AUX input jack, select system Type-2 at the multi-function remote. This provides AUX volume control as well as independent CH5/6 level adjustment for both main and AUX sources.
- Page 8 Note that when using the link6’s AUX input for an auxiliary source in addition to the Main input, all speakers must be powered by amplifier(s) connected to link6’s RCA outputs and not powered directly by the original factory system.
- Page 9 While all Wāvtech models provide external controls for main adjustments, there are also a few internal configuration jumpers available to resolve certain special vehicle or system conditions. The link6’s internal jumper locations and default settings are shown in the illustration below. To access these jumpers, simply remove the two top screws from each end panel and loosen two bottom screws on one side in order to easily remove the chassis top cover.
