① USB Power Supply Terminal (5V / 2.1A)
② LINE 1 Input Terminals (3.5mm Mini, Stereo)
Connect a portable audio player, tablet, etc..
NOTE: When you connect a device into LINE 1 input during Bluetooth playback, Bluetooth audio
stops and LINE 1 sound will be output.
③ [ ] Bluetooth Button / Indicator
Connect Bluetooth-enabled device such as portable audio player, tablet, etc.
During pairing mode, the indicator blinks. When the indicator is lit, the device is connected.
NOTE: When you connect a device via Bluetooth while LINE 1 input is being used, LINE 1 input
sound will stop and Bluetooth sound will be output.
④ Input Volume LINE 1(Bluetooth) / LINE 2 / MIC 1 / MIC 2 (LINE 3)
To Adjust each input level.
To adjust the level of LINE 3, use knob for MIC 2.
⑤ SIGNAL / PEAK Indicator
SIGNAL Indicator
It lights up when the speaker output level becomes around - 46 dB or more of the rated
output.
It may not light up when the output level is low. It is not malfunction. Blinks when muted.
(Muting function is done only by IR IN or RS232. This unit does not have this operation.)
PEAK indicator
Lights up when the speaker output level reaches its peak (around - 3 dB from the rated
output).
If it lights continuously, the sound maybe distorted. Lower the volume if necessary.
⑥ BASS / TREBLE
You can adjust BASS (low frequency) and TREBLE (high frequency) from -10 dB to +10 dB.
Use a small screwdriver, etc. .
⑦ Master Volume
Adjust the output level to the speaker and PRE OUT jack. Turning it to the right will increase
the volume. If you add PCA1120, you can raise or lower the system volume by this knob.
⑧ [ ] Power Button / Indicator
Switch the Power Standby / On. The indicator lights up as follows.

Benefits of combining MCA1120 with one or more PCA1120(s).
a. Additional speaker zones can be added (See Example B).
b. A passive subwoofer can be added to the system (See Example C).
c. Both the MCA1120 and PCA1120 include independent Preset EQ and HPF, allowing you to
tailor the sound of each speaker area.
d. The MCA1120 Master Volume control can be used to adjust overall system volume for
all areas since its PRE OUT terminal is variable. In this application, set the PCA1120 volume
control to the center position (12 o’clock). Alternatively, you can adjust each PCA1120
volume independently.

■ MIC 2 Connection
1. Set #6 [ SET UP ] DIP Switch [ MIC 2 / LINE 3 ] to [ MIC 2 ].
2. Use #7 [ SET UP ] DIP Switch [ MIC2 AMP ] to select between
[ On ] (Mic level) or [ Off ] (Line Level).
If using a wireless MIC, this selection should be based off of the output level of
the microphone receiver unit.
3. Connect the output of the microphone to the MIC 2 terminal with Euroblock.
