Consider the most convenient location to mount the  
V-12/AWE. Use the PVC junction box (supplied),  
mounted atop a PVC conduit through which the wires  
will run. 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. See figures 2, 3 and 4.

Using Speaker Selectors with IM  
Muting Volume Controls  
INSTALLATION  
1. Identify the Speaker wire and Amplifier wire.  
Label the wires for future reference.  
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  
2. Run the necessary wiring up through the conduit  
and the opening at the base of the enclosure.  
3. Mount the entire enclosure atop the PVC conduit.  
Secure the enclosure with galvanized mounting  
screws.  
4. Strip 1/4" of insulation from the end of each wire.  
Tightly twist the end  
of each wire until no  
protection circuit (JobSite models S-4 or S-6). Then  
keep the protection circuit off at all times.  
frayed ends remain.  
Tools Required  
5. Locate the snap and  
lock connectors and  
remove them if they  
are plugged in. See

raise the locking tabs, exposing the holes on the  
connector.

OPERATION  
reached the limit of your amplifier’s volume  
capability. Reduce the volume at once to avoid  
damaging your speakers.  
1. Make sure the amplifier or receiver power is OFF  
and set the volume to minimum.  
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.  
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  
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.  
Selectors with IM Volume Controls, on page 5.  
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
