3. الإعداد والتثبيت
Proper installation is critical for the performance and safety of your STX2448 FLOATING PRO. Ensure all connections are secure and correctly polarized.
3.1. توصيلات الإدخال والإخراج
The processor supports two types of audio inputs and provides four independent outputs.
- Input (1): The STX2448 FLOATING PRO features both RCA and HIGH (Wire Input) connections. Both input types share the same input channels (A and B). Select the appropriate input type based on your audio source.
- Output (2): It has 4 independent RCA outputs (L+R) designed for connecting to amplifiers and other audio devices. These outputs are processed according to the audio parameter changes configured by the user.
Important: Using RCA and HIGH INPUT connections simultaneously may generate unwanted noises or audio issues.

3.2. Power and Remote Connections
Connect the power and remote wires as shown in the diagram below. Ensure proper gauge wiring and fuse protection.
- إيجابي (+): Use a 13 AWG cable. Connect to the positive terminal of the battery. Install a 1A fuse within 30cm (12 inches) of the battery.
- سلبي (-): Use a 13 AWG cable. Connect to a good chassis ground point.
- REM (Remote In): Use an 18 AWG cable. Connect to the remote output of your head unit (radio/player) to turn the DSP on and off with your audio system.
- Sequencer (S1, S2, S3): These outputs are used to control the power-on sequence of connected amplifiers, ensuring a smooth system startup.

4.3. ضبط مستوى الإدخال
Adjust the input level using the dedicated knob. The two LEDs (CLIP) next to the input level knob indicate if the input signal is saturated. Adjust the level until the CLIP LEDs do not illuminate, ensuring a clean signal.
4.4. مفاتيح التشغيل السريع
The four hotkeys (1, 2, 3, 4) provide quick access to specific functions, often related to output muting or limiter control. Refer to the on-screen prompts for their current assignments.
5. الصيانة
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your STX2448 FLOATING PRO, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- تنظيف: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the exterior of the unit. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the finish or internal components.
- تهوية: Ensure the unit has adequate ventilation. Do not block any vents or install the unit in an enclosed space without proper airflow.
- الظروف البيئية: Avoid exposing the unit to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, high humidity, or excessive dust.
