11) Jumpers S2 and S3 select the least significant bits of the EVM I
2
C
address.
See section 2.5.3 for details
.
12) To allow the module SE/BTL control input to switch the amplifier IC
between single ended (SE) and bridge-tied load (BTL) output modes, set
output mode jumper S4 to
OFF
. To keep the module amplifier IC in the
single-ended output mode regardless of the control input state, set jumper
S4 to
ON
.

Note: ON = Shunt installed, OFF = Open
13) When the module powers up or comes out of shutdown, the gain is set at
the –85 dB level. Gain settings can be adjusted through an I
2
C interface,
connecting to the EVM via connector P1 or through test point terminals
TP3, TP4, TP5, and TP6 (Table 2–3).
See section 2.5.3 for details.

14) Verify correct voltage and input polarity and set the external power supply
to
ON
. If V
CC
and an on-board regulator EVM are used to provide V
DD
, set
platform power switch S1 to
ON
.
Platform LED2 should light indicating the presence of V
DD
, and the evaluation
modules installed on the platform should begin operation.
15) Adjust the signal source level as needed.
