10 DC Trigger Input and Output
Manyaudio/videocomponentscansupplyaDCcontrolvoltageto
associated equipment in order to induce desired behavior. Your Classé
integrated amplifier can take advantage of these capabilities in order to be
switched between operate and standby automatically.
e1/8th-inchmini-jackTrigger In provides for remote-controlled
turn-on (that is, toggling between operate and standby) of the integrated
amplifier.
Two1/8th-inchmono mini-jacksprovideindividuallycontrollableDC
trigger outputs which can be used for any of a number of purposes, as
described in e Menu System. For example, your dealer can program
Trigger Out1 to toggle an outboard Classé power amplifier between
operate and standby with your CAP-2100 (to facilitate the operation of
bi-amped systems).

tip polarity as shown below:

up to 100mA of current.
11 Ground terminal
e ground terminal on your integrated amplifier is most often used for
the ground wire of a turntable, assuming you have the optional phono
module installed (see your authorized Classé dealer for more information
on this option if you are interested).
Connectingthegroundwirefromyourturntable’stonearmtothisscrew
terminal usually minimizes any hum or buzzing to which the turntable
might otherwise be susceptible. Your authorized Classé dealer can assist
you in handling this problem if it should arise.
