3sixty Installation
2009 Rockford Fosgate RTTI
Hardware Installation - Power
1. Constant 12 volt B+ and Ground
2. The 3Sixty can be turned ON by a 12 volt turn on lead or set to a signal sensing mode to turn on
3. When set to signal sensing, the 3Sixty turn-on becomes +12 volts OUT and can be used to trigger amplifier/s
2009 Rockford Fosgate RTTI
How to Set Turn-on Options
Remove these 2 screws to gain access to the jumper pins. This is the output side of the 3sixty.
2009 Rockford Fosgate RTTI
Locate the Jumper
This is the location for the jumper. The factory positionsetting is in the IN position. This allows 3sixty to work likean amplifier, requiring a remote turn on input
2009 Rockford Fosgate RTTI
Move the Jumper
This is how the jumper should be setif you are using the 3sixty for remote output
2009 Rockford Fosgate RTTI
Hardware Installation - Knob
• Programmable
• Master volume
• Subwoofer output level
• Aux in switch
• Aux in Master volume
Note: Disconnect the remote knob from the 3Sixty during setup.
2009 Rockford Fosgate RTTI
Hardware Installation - Inputs
Input Options• Six – Speaker level inputs • Six – Line level (RCA) inputs • Up to 20 volts input (100 watts).
Both sets of inputs are labeled as: • Front – Left and Right • Rear – Left and Right• Center and Sub
A 3Sixty install is just like installing a Line Output Converter.
Warning –These inputs are PARALLEL inputs with DIFFERENT connection options.

3sixty Setup and Tuning
Step 1
Verify Current Left/right channel setup
2009 Rockford Fosgate RTTI
3sixty Setup and Tuning
Step 2
Find the Maximum unclipped outputfrom the source unit using a 1k sine wave at 0db and o-scope
2009 Rockford Fosgate RTTI
What is the difference between ¾ volume and maximum unclipped output?
¾ Volume on our head unit Max. unclipped on our head unit
2009 Rockford Fosgate RTTI
3sixty Setup and Tuning
Step 3
Check audio signal input polarity
2009 Rockford Fosgate RTTI
How do you determine the phaseof the OEM Speaker Wires?
DO NOT use a Battery!!
Use a half Clipped Sine Wave

Step 5
Establish bluetooth link to 3sixty witha palm or windows device
2009 Rockford Fosgate RTTI
3sixty Setup and Tuning
Step 6
Run OEM integration or new setup withaftermarket source unit
2009 Rockford Fosgate RTTI
The OEM Integration Analysis
• OEM Integration process will take 3 – 8 minutes
• 3Sixty analyzes each channel input signal
• Determine if each channel is Full range or bandwidth limited
• If selected, Sum channels to create Full range Outputs
• Auto normalize or “flatten” the frequency response of each channel
2009 Rockford Fosgate RTTI
To Sum or Not To Sum
SUM if the 3Sixty will control• Front and Rear channel levels (Fading)• Center or Sub (subwoofer) channel levels • All channel crossover points and slopes
Do not to SUM if the source will control• Front and Rear channel levels (Fading)• Center or Sub (subwoofer) channel levels • All channel crossover points and slopes• Source has 5.1 surround and you wish to maintain the
proper frequency steering
If you choose NOT SUM, 3Sixty will still Auto Normalize the frequency response of each Input channel.

3sixty System Tuning
2009 Rockford Fosgate RTTI
3sixty Setup and Tuning
What is good sound?Everyone has their own opinion of whatsounds good. To establish a baseline towork from, follow this thought:Good sound is reproducing themusic as it was recorded.
Attributes of good sound are:-Wide Realistic Sound Stage-Focused center image-Accurate tonal balance
2009 Rockford Fosgate RTTI
3sixty Setup and Tuning
System tuning does not solve:- improper system design- poor speaker placement- poor component choice
2009 Rockford Fosgate RTTI
3sixty Setup and Tuning
Common System Tuning goals- Recreate the music as it was recorded- Balanced sound- Maximum dynamic range- Maximum system reliability
2009 Rockford Fosgate RTTI
3sixty Setup and Tuning
System Check List-Check speaker polarity-Controls on sources set to flat-Balance and fader to correct position-Level match processors and amplifiers-Play full range signal to ensure equal sound and output-Adjust the subwoofers down to match the level output of the high frequency amplifiers
2009 Rockford Fosgate RTTI
3sixty Setup and Tuning
Tuning with an RTA-An RTA will give you a good foundation-Don’t rely on the RTA alone, your ears will be the final judge
2009 Rockford Fosgate RTTI
3sixty Setup and Tuning
Tuning Tips-Use an EQ to cut and not boost-Use your ear to make final adjustments
