PREPARING FOR INSTALLATION
If you are installing the V-12/AW into an existing wall,
take time to consider any possible obstructions which
may be hidden inside the wall, such as wood or metal
studs, electrical, telephone or other types of wiring,
plumbing, AC or heating conduit. Count the number of
pairs of 4 ohm speakers and the number of pairs of
8 ohm speakers you are connecting. Count pairs of
6 ohm speakers as 4 ohm pairs. Determine the
correct switch position from the impedance charts
below. See figures 2, 3 and 4.

Using Speaker Selectors with IM
Volume Controls
Although IM controls provide volume and on/off at
the volume-control location, they do not give you
central control of speakers playing throughout the
house. Speaker-selection systems give you central
control, but some speaker selectors have non-
defeatable impedance-protection circuits. Combining
IM controls with such a selector will reduce your
maximum volume substantially. To solve this problem,
specify a speaker selector with a defeatable
protection circuit (JobSite models S-4 or S-6). Then
keep the protection circuit off at all times.
Tools Required
I1/8" Slotted screwdriver
I1/4" Slotted screwdriver
INo2 Phillips screwdriver
IWire stripper
IWire labels
INSTALLATION
1. Identify the Speaker wire and Amplifier wire. Label
the wires for future reference.
2. Strip 1/4" of insulation from the end of each wire.
Tightly twist the end of each wire until no frayed
ends remain.
3. Locate the snap and lock
connectors and remove
them if they are plugged
in. See figures 5.
4. Use a small flathead
screwdriver or your
thumb to raise the
locking tabs, exposing the holes on the connector.
5. Insert wire into the appropriate hole and snap
down the locking tabs.

6. Insert the smooth side of the connector plug into
the smooth side of the V-12/AW socket.
7. Install the V-12/AW into the device ring.
8. Set the Impedance Magnification Switch as
determined by the impedance charts.
9. Set the switches, on all of the controls, to the
same position (1x, 2x, 4x, or 8x).
10. Attach the cover plate.
See installation diagram.

OPERATION
1. Make sure the amplifier or receiver power is OFF
and set the volume to minimum.
2. Set the volume on the volume control to maximum
(fully clockwise).
3. If you are using a JobSite speaker-selection
system, locate the on/off button that corresponds
to the speaker pair you wish to play. Set it to the
ON position. Make sure the defeatable protection
circuit is not enabled. See Using Speaker
Selectors with IM Volume Controls, on page 4.
4. Turn ON the amplifier or receiver and select a
source, such as the Tuner or CD player.
5. Slowly turn up the amplifier or receiver volume and
set it to a comfortable – not maximum – listening
level. Don’t overdrive or "clip" your amplifier. If the
sound becomes muddy or distorted, you have
reached the limit of your amplifier’s volume
capability. Reduce the volume at once to avoid
damaging your speakers.
6. Use the volume control to adjust the volume of the
speakers to the desired listening level. If all the
speaker pairs in your system are equipped with
JobSite volume controls, you can set the amplifier
or receiver volume at one position and use the
JobSite controls exclusively.
7. To turn OFF the speakers, turn the knob on the
volume control fully counter-clockwise, or press
the ON/OFF button on your speaker selector.
