تنظیم او نصب کول
اړین وسایل
- سکرو ډرایور (د فیلیپس سر)
- واير سټرپرېز
- برقي ټیپ (اختیاري)
- Standard single-gang junction box (if not already installed)
د تار لګولو لارښوونې
The AB12 features removable, solderless terminals for easy wiring. It accepts speaker wire up to 14 gauge. For optimal sound quality, 14-16 gauge wire is recommended.
- تارونه چمتو کړئ: Strip approximately 1/4 to 1/2 inch of insulation from the ends of your speaker wires. Twist the bare wire strands tightly.

د سویچ نصب کول
The AB12 is designed to fit into a standard single-gang junction box with a minimum depth of 2.9 inches. The dimensions of the selector are approximately 1 inch (W) x 2.75 inches (H) x 1.75 inches (D).
- د جنکشن بکس چمتو کړئ: Ensure the junction box is securely installed in the wall.
- سویچ داخل کړئ: Carefully push the wired AB12 switch into the junction box. Ensure wires are not pinched.
- خوندي مخ پلیټ: Attach the desired color faceplate (white, beige, or light almond options are typically included) over the switch and secure it to the junction box using the provided screws.

عملیاتي لارښوونې
The OSD Audio AB12 switch provides a simple push-button mechanism to select between two audio configurations.
فعالیت
- دوه Amplifiers to One Speaker Pair: دوه سره وصل کړئ amplifiers to 'AMP A INPUT' and 'AMP B INPUT' respectively. Connect one pair of speakers to 'OUTPUT'. Press the button to switch between Ampژوندی کوونکی الف او Amplifier B playing through the single speaker pair.
- یو Amplifier to Two Speaker Pairs: یو وصل کړئ amplifier to 'AMP A INPUT'. Connect two pairs of speakers to 'OUTPUT' (one pair wired to the 'A' side of the output terminals, the other to the 'B' side, if applicable, or use the switch to select between two distinct output paths). Press the button to switch between Speaker Pair A and Speaker Pair B playing from the single ampلايف
The switch is designed to allow power to flow to speakers from either A or B, but not from both simultaneously. This prevents potential damage to amplifiers or speakers due to conflicting signals.

ساتنه
The OSD Audio AB12 In-Wall Speaker Selector requires minimal maintenance.
- پاکول: To clean the faceplate, gently wipe it with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the finish.
- اړیکې: Periodically check all wiring connections to ensure they remain secure. Loose connections can lead to signal loss or poor audio quality.

د ستونزو حل کول
If you encounter issues with your AB12 speaker selector, refer to the following troubleshooting steps:
| ستونزه | احتمالي لامل | د حل لاره |
|---|---|---|
| د سپیکرو څخه هیڅ غږ نشته | لوڅ تارونه نښلول د غلط سویچ موقعیت Amplifier or speaker issue | Check all speaker wire connections at the AB12 switch and at the amplifier/speakers. Ensure the switch is fully engaged in the desired A or B position. Verify amplifier and speakers are functioning correctly by bypassing the switch temporarily. |
| Sound from only one speaker (left or right channel) | د تارونو غلط قطبیت Loose connection for one channel د سویچ میکانیزم خراب دی | Verify correct positive (+) and negative (-) wiring for both left and right channels. Check connections for the affected channel. If the issue persists, the internal switch mechanism may be faulty; contact support. |
| Difficulty fitting into standard gang box | Insufficient depth or width in junction box Excessive wiring inside box | Ensure the junction box meets the minimum depth requirement (2.9 inches). Carefully arrange wires to minimize bulk. Some older or non-standard boxes may require minor modification (e.g., widening the opening) or a deeper box. |
| تحریف شوی یا خراب غږیز کیفیت | Incorrect wire gauge تړلې اړیکې Exceeding power rating | Use recommended 14-16 gauge speaker wire. Check all connections. Ensure the amplifier output does not exceed the 100-watt rating of the switch. |
