Grounding Screw
The grounding screw 1# provides a convenient system
grounding point where one or more of the components is
not equipped with a three prong AC cord. The entire
system can be grounded by simply connecting a wire
between the chassis of any system component and the
ACE-615 grounding screw 1#. (The remaining compo-
nents will be grounded to the ACE-615 through the
various audio and video coax connections.)
Remote Triggering
The ACE-615 may be remotely activated and deacti-
vated using a low voltage trigger signal available from
most contemporary preamps and receivers. Connect the
trigger out jack of the preamp with the ACE-615’s 12v
trigger in jack 1@.
Sat/DSS and Cable Connection
Connect the incoming coax cable to the coax 1 input
jack fa. Connect the corresponding coax 1 output jack
fb to the appropriate input jack of a cable box, SAT/DSS
receiver, or TV/Monitor. For a second device follow the
same procedure using the coax 2 input ga and the coax
2 output gb.
NOTE: All outdoor cables must be properly grounded
prior to entering a building. See the Safety
Instructions section for further details.
Phone Line
Connect the phone line from the wall outlet to the
phone 1 input jack ha. Connect the corresponding phone
1 output jack hb to the line input of a modem, DVD/TiVo,
DSS receiver, or pay-per-view cable box. For a second
device follow the same procedure using the phone 2
input ia and phone 2 output ib.
AC Power Connection
Once the installation and all necessary connections are
made, insure all connected equipment is off, and that the
ACE-615 power button b is in the Off (out) position. Now
plug the AC power cord 1$ into a grounded AC wall outlet.
The unit is ready for operation.
Safety Instructions
• Read all instructions and store them for future reference.
• Plug unit into polarized AC outlets only. Contact an
electrician if there is any doubt that the outlet is
properly polarized.
• Install in a properly ventilated location, away from
heaters, heat ducts and other heat producing devices.
• Do not use with high-current devices such as hobby arc
welders, hair dryers, and space heaters. Total power
consumption of connected equipment must not exceed
1800 watts.
• Do not use a unit if there are any signs of damage.
• No user serviceable parts inside. Do not attempt
servicing of this unit yourself. Refer servicing to
qualified service personnel.
• All Satellite/DSS, Cable, and Antenna cables must be
grounded in accordance with Section 810 of the
National Electrical Code and ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984.
Failure to comply with these codes will void all
warranties regarding the ACE-615.
Symbol explanations
Unpacking
Before each ACE-615 left the factory, it was carefully
inspected for physical imperfections as a routine part of
ADCOM’s systematic quality control. This, along with full
operational and mechanical testing, should insure a
product flawless in both appearance and performance.
After you have unpacked the ACE-615, inspect it for
physical damage. Save the shipping carton and all
packing materials, as they are intended to minimize the
possibility of transportation damage, should the product
ever need to be shipped again. In the unlikely event
damage has occurred, notify your dealer immediately and
request the name of the carrier so that a written claim to
cover the damage can be initiated.
The right to any claim against a public carrier can be
forfeited if the carrier is not notified promptly in writing and
if the shipping carton and packing materials are not
available for inspection. Save all packing materials until
the claim has been settled.
Installation
For maximum performance and extended product life,
install the ACE-615 in a well ventilated area away from
external heat sources like radiators and heat vents.
For professional installations, the ACE-615 may be
mounted in a standard 19-inch rack using the optional
RM-3 rack-mount adapters available through ADCOM
dealers.
Connections
Optional: Attach the supplied color-coded AC cord
labels to each AC cord to be installed. Place a label at
each end of the AC cord to easily identify which cord is
connected to each product.
System AC Connections
Begin by connecting products which require full-time
AC power to the rear panel jacks labeled “unswitched” 1).
Connect the amplifiers’ power cord to the rear AC jacks
labeled “amplifiers” 1!. Connect the AC power cords of all
other products to the switched jacks on the rear panel
labeled “accessories”
