Getting Started Bluecube Media Player AQ-BC-6UBTwww.aquaticav.com 51.5 Power OnThe AQ-BC-6UBT requires +12V dc to both the red and yellow wires. When both of these wires have power, the AQ-BC-6UBT is always powered on and is indicated by a red LED coming out of the heatsink of the stereo. Ground is connected to the Black wire. In a SPA application, this requires the red and yellow wires to be jumped together and tehn connected to +12V dc output of the power source. In this set up, the AQ-BC-6UBT will always be on, with a very low current draw when idle. In a bot, ATV or other application requiring power from a battery, the yellow wire (constant power) should be connected to the battery, and the red wire connected to the ignition or a switch. For detailed instructions, you can check out our online video: "How to wire your Aquatic AV stereo system"http://www.aquaticav.com/support/videos1.6 Handheld Remote Control Charging The remote has a built-in Polymer Lithium rechargeable battery. It comes with a custom made charging cable which is used. Connect one end to the blades of the remote control and another to any USB charger (5V dc) for charging. Make sure the remote has been charged before used. 1.7 Handheld Remote Control Synchronizing The remote should already be paired from the factory, but if you need to synchronize the remote, follow below steps. 1. Make sure BlueCube+ Media Player (AQ-BC-6UBT) is powered ON (red LED lit)2. Put the remote close to the BlueCube+ Media Player (within 0.5 meter) 2. Press and hold MODE on remote control until the LCD shows "Pairing in Progress". Release the button. 3. WIthin 2 seconds, the LCD will show "Paired". If it fails to pair, the LCD will show "Retry again". If this happens, wait 5 seconds and repeat the above procedures. For any additional remote controls, you will also need to synchroize those remote controls to the BlueCube Media Player (AQ-BC-6UBT). If the pairing process is not successful, try again to put your remote close to the dongle.Depending on the frequency of usage, the remote might drain its battery. Please charge the remote before use. If the LCD shows nothing, it means that the battery has been drained. If you have lost your remote control and buy a new remote control, please follow the above steps to pair the remote control

Additonal Features Bluecube Media Player AQ-BC-6UBTwww.aquaticav.com 97.1 External 12V TriggerAquatic AV understands the need for more flexible remote applications. With the BlueCube+ Media Player, Auquatic AV has provided an independent 12V 'accessory' trigger, activated from the RF wireless remote. This could activate any 12V based device like 12V lights or 12V motors. In any operational mode, press the (12V TRIGGER) button to activate. Press again to deactivate. Depending on the versions, if there are two external trigger wires, you can also activate the second external trigger by press and hold for the second external trigger. 7.2 Connecting Multiple Amplifiers or High Current Draw Lighting SystemsAquatic AV strongly recommend you speak to our technical service staff or your local Aquatic AV dealer if you are considering this feature. Load on External Trigger(s) should not exceed 2A. Wiring a Single Pole Single Throw (SPST) Relay The SPST is necessary to protect the stereo in systems with multiple amplifiers. The AQ-BC-6UBT remote and trigger wire provide 2A max current. While this is enough to power a single amplifier, complex systems with multiple amplifiers will require a SPST relay. Position 30: requires 12VDC from the main power source (12V battery, power supply etc). This should be the same power source that is powering your stereo. Position 85: this is where you connect your ground from your power source (12V battery, power supply, etc.) This should be the same ground reference as your stereo. Position 86: position 86 is triggered 12V, and is sent when your stereo is powered on. 8787308586Triggered12V DC fromstereo (Blue orBrown wire)Commonground12V DC output for amplifierTriggered12V DC fromstereo (Blue orBrown wire)For Aquatic AV stereos, position 86 can be connected to either the blue remote wire in the harness or the brown 12V trigger on the rear of the unit. There differences are below: Blue (recommended): The blue (remote wire) provides a 12V DC output when the stereo is powered on. Meaning as soon as the stereo is powered on, the blue wire sends 12V DC through th relay powering on the amplifier. Brown: The brown (12V Trigger) provides 12V DC output when it is triggered via the lightning bolt icon on the faceplate or handheld remote. This setup is more advantageous in a more complex system with several zones, as it gives you control of when an amplifier is on or off. Position 87: this is 12V DC output that you will provide 12V DC to the remote turn on to the amplifiers in your system.
