Model 1710B
Headphone Demonstration
Switching Amplier
2
Introduction
The 1710B is designed to provide high delity amplication and theft detection
for headphones and sound docks. It functions as a distribution amplier or
switching system for self service retail demonstration. The 1710B has several
options that govern the behavior of the headphone demonstration. In distribution
mode (see table on page 3), all outputs are active all the time. In switching
mode, only one of the four outputs may be active at any one time. Larger
switching systems, linked by system bus and audio patch cords, can either allow
one live position on each 1710B, or the entire system can be limited to one
active position at a time (see Feature Switch settings). Visit audioauthority.com/
demobeat for tips and application diagrams.

Audio Sources and Customer Auto Demo
Connect a music player to the Default Input jack as the audio source. If desired,
provide a 3.5mm cord connected to the Customer Input so that customers may use
their own music players to demonstrate headphones. When audio is detected on
the Customer Input jack, the customer device is selected as the audio source. If no
audio is detected on the Customer Input for 7.5 seconds, the 1710B switches back
to the Default Input.
Audio Bus Out
The bus output feeds the currently selected audio input (Default or Customer) to
more 1710B modules or other audio devices in the system. Connect a 3.5mm patch
cord from the rst 1710B bus output to the second 1710B Default input, etc. One
linked system sharing a Default Input also must share one Customer input (do not
use any Customer inputs besides the rst 1710B).
System Bus
System Bus is a four-conductor cable that allows multiple 1710B modules to be
connected and communicate with each other. They can coordinate current product
selection as well as alarm signals and alarm reset (see Theft Detection on page 4).

Button (PSB) Ports
In switching mode, customers can activate one product at
a time using a four-wire (or two-wire) push-button switch
(sold separately). Connect a button for each corresponding
product. The LED in the button illuminates during the
demonstration. Buttons are not used in distribution mode.
Theft Detection
1710B theft detection is compatible with most headphone models, including
models with active circuitry such as noise cancelling. Activate theft detection
using the Theft Detect switches, which are numbered to correspond with each
headphone position. The 1710B can detect most headphones when connected
directly to the 1710B. Keep cable lengths as short as possible. All devices should
be tested for proper detection behavior upon installation. If detection does
not work for a particular device, disable detection for that port using the Theft
Detection switches.
Attach a reset switch (contact closure) to reset the alarm. We recommend that
a remote theft indicator light should be installed in clear view of customers. The
blinking LED is a deterrent, warning that theft detection is active. The on-board
buzzer sounds if it detects an unauthorized removal, but If a louder alarm is
desired, the external siren port can power a 12VDC siren.
When active, the theft indicator blinks and the 1710B detects the headphones
that are connected, so that it will trigger the alarm if one is removed. The theft
indicator light connected to the 1710B where the stolen headphones were
connected shines solid until the alarm is reset.
When headphones must be connected and disconnected, turn on the siren reset
switch, make product changes, and turn the switch off again. The theft indicator
LED(s) turn off when the reset switch is on. Only one reset switch is needed per
system; reset status is communicated to all other modules that are connected via
System Bus.
Timeout Interval
In switching mode, a demo timer is initiated each time a customer selects
a product output to audition. The demonstration length is set by the timeout
switch, in increments of 15 seconds. If the timeout switch is set to 0, then the
demonstration does not time out.
Operation
On power up, the status light blinks to show normal operation, and selector
buttons are lit. When customer audio is playing, the Status light blinks rapidly.
The PSB-224 push-
button is shown above.
Various cable lengths
are available.
