Parasound Halo T 3 - Manual (Page 10)

The T 3 can be turned on automatically when a trigger voltage is received from an external DC
voltage source such as a preamplifier or system controller.
What You’ll Need:
• A trigger cable with 2.5 mm sub-mini plugs (provided)
• A component with an external +9Vdc- 12Vdc trigger voltage
Before Connecting
Turn off the power to the T 3.
To Connect
Plug one end of this cable into the 12V Trigger Input jack on the T 3.

YOU SHOULD KNOW
If the device you want to use to control your T 3 doesn’t have a 2.5 mm trigger output connector,
you can cut one plug off the cable and modify the end as needed. The wire with the red stripe
is positive and the wire without the stripe is negative.
You cannot automatically turn on the T 3 by applying AC power to the unit. Therefore, the T 3
will not turn on automatically if it is connected to a switched AC outlet.
