Frequently Asked Questions - FDS 4.350 FOCAL

What is the gain adjustment procedure?
Set the gain to minimum, then set the source volume to 3/4. Gradually increase the amplifier gain to the desired maximum listening level. Reduce if distortion occurs. Too high a gain does not increase power but adds noise.
What to do if the red PROTECT LED is on?
Turn off the system and check for short circuits on the speaker outputs. If the problem persists, check the speaker impedance and connections.
How to connect the amplifier power supply?
Disconnect the negative battery terminal. Install a fuse holder with a 30 A fuse within 40 cm of the battery on the positive cable. Connect the negative cable to the vehicle chassis (ground) after sanding the paint. Use cables of appropriate gauge (≥ 4 mm²).
Why won't the amplifier turn on?
Check for 12 V on the +12V terminal, proper ground (GND) connection, and voltage on the REM terminal (remote turn-on). Make sure the fuses are not blown.
What is the minimum supported speaker impedance?
In stereo mode, the minimum impedance is 2 Ω per channel. In bridged mode, it is 4 Ω. Lower impedance voids the warranty.
How to use the 1+2 mode on the FDS 4.350?
The INPUT SELECT switch allows choosing 1+2: channels 3/4 then receive a mono signal summing channels 1 and 2, ideal for driving a subwoofer.
What causes a red and green LED flashing alternately?
This indicates amplifier overheating. Turn off the system, let it cool, and ensure ventilation is not obstructed.
Can I install the amplifier in the engine compartment?
No, installation in the engine compartment is prohibited and voids the warranty. Install it in the passenger compartment, in a ventilated area.
How to wire the RCA inputs if my car stereo has only one output?
Use the INPUT SELECT switch in the 1/2 position: channels 3/4 copy the signal from channels 1/2, allowing you to amplify 4 channels with a single RCA pair.
What to do in case of sound distortion?
Reduce the amplifier gain or source volume. Check that the speakers are not overloaded and that the impedance is correct. Improper filter settings can also cause distortion.

Wiring your FDS amplifier

Only use the cables recommended in this manual and the accessories supplied. The speaker cable must ONLY be used for connecting the amplifier to the speaker drivers. The wire gauge of power cables must correspond with those indicated in the table (paragraph 3.1) and is according to the power of your amplifier and the length of cable required. Use double or triple shielded RCA cables to avoid any interference of the low-level signal.

Operating time of your FDS amplifier

Avoid using the amplifier for extended periods of time without starting the vehicle. This may cause the battery to become flat prematurely.

Cooling system

Do not cover the top of your FDS amplifier as this may cause overheating.

Materials required for installation (in addition to accessories supplied):

  • 2 sheaths of an adequate cross section (1 sheath for the power cable, 1 sheath for the speaker cables, REMOTE cable and RCA low-level wires)
  • Multimetre (voltage/amperage)
  • Soldering iron + tin solder
  • Crimpers
  • Wire stripper
  • Wire cutter
  • Spanner for battery terminal
  • Hand drill and matching drill bits
  • Heat-shrink tubing of adequate diameter for the different cables
  • Power cable of adequate length and wire gauge
  • Remote turn-on cable (REM input on amplifier) of adequate length and wire gauge
  • Grounded terminal cable of adequate length and wire gauge
  • Fuse holder and adequate fuse
  • Spade terminal for connecting to positive (+) battery terminal
  • Spade terminal for connecting to the chassis of the vehicle (-)
  • Screw with a minimum 6mm screw head and its nut for grounding to the chassis of the vehicle

Installation:

The following section deals with issues related to the vehicle which must be considered for the installation of your amplifier. You will save time by planning the layout of the system and wiring in advance.

Please ensure during this preparatory phase, that all the settings remain accessible once the installation is complete.

Before beginning the installation, please follow these rules carefully:

1 - After thoroughly reading the user manual, make sure you have understood all the instructions before installing the amplifier.
2 - Disconnect the negative terminal of the battery before beginning the installation. (fig.1)
3 - To facilitate the assembly, we strongly recommend you unwind all the wires before installing the amplifier.
4 - Route all RCA, speaker and REM cables, away from the power cables in order to avoid any signal interference.
5 - Use quality connectors and Y-type spade terminals on the amplifier terminal board to ensure a reliable installation and to minimise any loss of signal or power.
6 - Before carrying out any operation, be extremely careful not to cut or drill through the fuel tank, fuel, brake, hydraulic or vacuum lines, any electrical wiring or safety device.
7 - Never route a wire under the vehicle. Wiring must be installed inside the vehicle. When routing the cables, make sure they do not impede your driving. Cables obstructing or protruding out from areas such as the steering column or pedals (brake, accelerator, clutch, etc...) can be extremely dangerous.
8 - Avoid routing wires over or through sharp edges. Any wire routed through metal must be protected with a cable grommet. Route the cables well away from mobile parts (seat rails...) and sharp or pointed edges. This will avoid damaging the wires and getting them caught which may cause a short circuit.
9 - Always protect the battery and electric circuit from potential damage with fuses. Install a fuse holder and adequate fuses on the 12V positive (+) power cable less than 40cm away from the battery terminal. Ideally, this above-mentioned distance should be as short as possible (fig.5).
10 - Prepare the chassis ground by scraping off any trace of paint on the metal surface in order to ensure proper grounding. The grounding connections should also be as short as possible and ALWAYS connected to metal welded to the body or the chassis of the vehicle (fig. 2). The ground point which is generally chosen is the one connecting the negative terminal of the battery to the chassis of the vehicle.
11 - NEVER install this equipment in the engine compartment of the vehicle. This will void the warranty.

1 - Positioning of your FDS amplifier

Where to install your FDS amplifier?

Due to the power of the amplifier, heat dissipation is required for correct operation. For this reason, the amplifier must be installed in a well-ventilated area, particularly the top of the amplifier. Avoid covering or embedding the amplifier in its installed location.

2 - Mounting your FDS amplifier

Position your amplifier at the desired location and make matchmarks.

Locate the attachment points in your surface by removing the caps at each end.

Use the fixing screws supplied (adapted for wooden surfaces).

CAUTION

Avoid routing power cables close to low-level input cables (LOW LEVEL INPUTS), close to the car aerial or sensitive equipment and harnesses. High-current power cables can cause interference that affects audio signal.

FOCAL FDS 4.350 - CAUTION - 1

CAUTION

Keep the cables as short as possible to maximise the quality of the installation. This will also limit signal loss.

FOCAL FDS 4.350 - CAUTION - 1

CAUTION

Before beginning the connection phase, remove the negative (-) terminal of the battery of the vehicle. (fig.1)

3.1 - What wire gauge should I use for the power cable?

Your FDS amplifier requires a power supply of adequate amperage.

The required wire gauge of power cables depends on the length of wiring to the battery. See recommended wire gauge in the table below:

Length of cable to the battery in metres
Length < 3m < 4 m < 5 m <6 m < 7 m
Cross sectional area in mm2>4 mm2>5 mm2>5 mm2>5 mm2>5 mm2
AWG < 11 AWG < 10 AWG <10 AWG < 10 AWG < 10 AWG

Compliance with these wiring rules is essential for the safety of your electrical Installation and important for maintaining maximum performance of your FDS amplifier.

3.2 - Wiring the input and output signals on your FDS amplifier

Route the RCA low-level wires, the speaker cables and the REM cable ensuring to insulate them from other powerful automobile accessories, particularly electric motors (windshield wiper...). Keep the whole length of the cables, which will be adjusted later on.

3.3 - Wiring the power supply to your FDS amplifier

3.3.1 - Route the positive power cable (+) making sure when doing so to route the cable to the opposite side of the cables that you have previously installed – this is to avoid any interference. DO NOT CONNECT THE CABLE YET.

FDS AMPLIFIERS

User manual

3.3.2 - Get hold of the negative power cable (-). This cable should be as short as possible and ideally should not be any longer than 1 metre, to ensure a perfect connection between the amplifier and the chassis of the vehicle. The cable and wire gauge must comply with the table in section 3.1. Find a suitable grounding point, then sand it to remove any traces of paint or other coating to maximising the quality of the contact point. Drill a hole in the metal that you have previously sanded, making a hole the same diameter as the screw you are using, making sure that there are no fuel lines, cables or any other sensitive vehicle devices nearby. Crimp the black Y-type spade terminal supplied to the end of the cable. Screw the black Y-type spade terminal firmly to the GND terminal on your FDS amplifier (fig. 2). Tin the other end of the cable and then crimp or solder it onto the intended spade terminal. Insert the screw through the spade terminal, then put the screw and the nut in place and screw tight.

1°/ INPUT(S): The RCA plugs are dedicated to the low level signal input.
2°/ GAIN: The rotary GAIN control potentiometer allows you to adjust the incoming signal to the amplifier. CAUTION: increasing the input gain does not mean more power, but more noise. The voltage gain varies between 0.2V and 5V. Optimisation of the sound system consists in applying the maximum gain as soon as possible beforehand on the sound system and then the minimum gain afterwards. This potentiometer must be set according to the source volume (line output level). Start by setting the amplifier gain to its lowest level. Gradually turn up the level of the source volume up to the 3/4 of the way. Turn up the amplifier gain level to the desired maximum listening level. Turn down the level if distortion occurs.
3°/ +12V: the power connector“+BATT” is dedicated to receive the power cable connecting the amplifierto the positive (+) terminal of the battery.
4°/ GND: the GND (ground) power connector is dedicated to receive the negative (-) power cable connecting the amplifier to the chassis of the vehicle.
5°/ REM : the REM connector connects the amplifier to the source (head unit via a REM or REMOTE output on the head unit. This enables the automatic turn-on of the amplifier as soon as the source (head unit) is turned on.
6°/ SPEAKERS : the SPEAKERS connectors link the amplifier to the speaker drivers. The polarities MUST be respected (+ amplifier + crossover or + speaker driver / - amplifier - crossover or - speaker driver).
7°/ FUSES: The FUSE connector is dedicated to receive the amplifier fuse(s). In case of replacement, make sure that the ampere rating is correct.
8°/ LEDs: the indicator LEDs enable you to check the amplifier is working correctly. A continuously illuminated green LED means the equipment is working correctly. A continuously illuminated red LED means the equipment is not working correctly. See troubleshooting section page 6.
9°/ Crossover selector: the CROSSOVER switch enables you to choose to activate a high-pass filter (HPF), a low-pass filter (LPF) or full range mode (FULL).
10°/ Setting the crossover cut-off frequency: This rotary potentiometer enables you to adjust the value of the high-pass or low-pass filter. The selected value determines the frequency up to which or from which the signal will be cut off.
11°/ Bass boost : the switch or rotary potentiometer (FDS1.350 or FDS2.350 respectively) enables you to increase the volume of the bass from 0 to 12dB.
12°/ Phase : the PHASE rotary potentiometer enables you to adjust the channel phase setting according to the rest of the installation. Adjusting the phase of the subwoofer enables the speaker driver output to be in phase or out of phase with the other speaker drivers. On a theoretical period of a signal, one of the sources can be adjusted slightly for the phase to be perfectly balanced at the listening point.
13°/ Mode selector: The INPUT SELECT switch (only available on the FDS4.350 model) enables channels 1 and 2 to be played through channels 3 and 4. So, if you only have one output (one right and one left), you can still amplify the four channels by activating the 1/2 mode.

If you want to use the FDS4.350 with its independent 4-channel input configuration, select mode 3/4.

If you want to use the FDS4.350 in 3-channel mode, select mode 1+2. Channels 3/4 will then receive the mono signal from channels 1 and 2 of your subwoofer.
