Power Connection

When connecting the stereo to power, you must connect the yellow, red, and black wires to the power source. The yellow and red wires have different functions, and the method you use to connect them to power depends on how you plan to use the stereo on your vessel.

Yellow wire

  • This wire provides power to the stereo.
  • This wire should be connected through a 15 A circuit breaker, if one is available on the vessel.NOTICEIf a 15 A circuit breaker is not available on the vessel, you must connect this wire to power through a 15 A fuse (not included).
  • This wire provides power to the stereo at all times, and it will drain the battery even when the stereo is not in use. You should install a manual switch on this wire if a 15 A circuit breaker is not available on the vessel, or if you cannot toggle the breaker to remove power to the stereo when storing the vessel.
  • If it is necessary to extend this wire, use 14 AWG (2.08 mm2 ) wire. For extensions longer than 1 m (3 ft.), use 12 AWG (3.31 mm² ) wire.

Red wire 

  • This wire can be connected to the same power source as the yellow wire through the ignition or through a manual switch. This enables you to turn the stereo on and off automatically when you turn the vessel on and off, or when you activate the switch.
  • Using this wire to turn the stereo on and off behaves in the same way as using the power button on the stereo to turn it on and off. It is not necessary to connect this wire to a switch if you plan to toggle the power using the power button on the stereo or using a connected chartplotter or remote control. This wire must be connected to turn the stereo on.
  • When you turn off the stereo using this switch or the power button, it enters a standby mode that allows the stereo to start up again faster than if you switch the power off using the yellow wire. When it is in standby mode, the stereo uses up to 200 mA, and you must turn off power to the stereo on the yellow wire thorough the circuit breaker or manual switch when you are not using the vessel to avoid draining the battery.NOTICEYou must connect this wire to power through a 1 A fuse (not included), whether or not you connect it to the ignition or manual switch.
  • If it is necessary to extend this wire, use 22 AWG (0.33 mm2 ) wire.

Black wire

  • This is the ground wire, and you must connect it to the negative terminal of the power source or to a common ground.
  • If it is necessary to extend this wire, use 14 AWG (2.08 mm2 ) wire. For extensions longer than 1 m (3 ft.), use 12 AWG (3.31 mm² ) wire.

Connecting to Power Without Using an Ignition Switch

This method of connection is used most often on larger vessels and on vessels with multiple networked stereos and other marine devices. For these installations, a faster startup time is typically less critical, and it is more effective to use the breaker or a dedicated switch on the electrical panel to turn off the stereo and ensure that no unexpected power drain occurs.

  1. Consult this diagram to plan the wire connections.
  2. Route all wires to the stereo wiring harness, the circuit breaker or switch, and the power source as necessary.Do not connect the wiring harness to the stereo until after you have made all of the bare wire connections.
  3. Install all of the necessary fuses on the red and yellow wires.
  4. Connect the wiring harness to the stereo.When the circuit breaker or manual switch is closed, the stereo is always on. You can use the power button on the stereo or a connected chartplotter or remote control to place the stereo in a low-power standby mode if needed.

 15 A circuit breaker

If a circuit breaker is not available, you must connect a 15 A fuse  on the yellow wire

NOTE: When you are not using the vessel, you should remove power to the stereo using the circuit breaker or manual switch to avoid draining the battery.

Connecting to Power Through an Ignition Switch

This method of connection is used most often on ski boats, wake boats, and similar sport or recreational vessels where power to the engines is toggled often. For these installations, a quick standby and faster startup time is desired so that music can be stopped and begin playing again as quickly as possible after restarting the engines. When in standby mode, the stereo uses up to 200 mA, and you should connect the power wires through a circuit breaker or manual switch to avoid draining the battery when you are not using the boat.

  1. Consult this diagram to plan the wire connections
  2. Route all wires to the stereo wiring harness, the ignition or ACC switch, the circuit breaker, and the power source as necessary.Do not connect the wiring harness to the stereo until after you have made all of the bare wire connections.
  3. Install all of the necessary fuses on the red and yellow wires.
  4. Connect the wiring harness to the stereo.When you turn on the ignition switch, the stereo turns on along with other accessory electronics. When you turn off the ignition switch, the stereo enters a low-power standby mode.

15 A circuit breaker or manual switch

If a circuit breaker is not available, you must connect a 15 A fuse on the yellow wire. You should also connect the yellow wire to power using a manual switch, so you can remove power to the stereo when you are not using the boat.

NOTE: When you are not using the vessel for an extended period of time, you should remove power to the stereo using the circuit breaker or other manual switch on the yellow wire to avoid draining the battery.

Speaker Zones

You can group speakers in one area into a speaker zone. This enables you to control the audio level of the zones individually. For example, you could make the audio quieter in the cabin and louder on deck. Up to two pairs of speakers can be connected per channel of each zone, in parallel. One zone can support no more than four speakers using the on-board amplifier. Zones 1 and 2 are powered by the on-board amplifier. Zone 3 is available as a line-level output only. To use the RCA line output and the RCA subwoofer output for zone 3, you must connect an external amplifier. You can set the balance, volume limit, tone, subwoofer level, subwoofer frequency, and name for each zone, and configure other zone-specific settings.

Speaker System Wiring Using a Line Out

This diagram illustrates a system installation with an external amplifier and subwoofer connected to zone 2 on the stereo using a line out. You can connect an amplifier and subwoofer to any or all of the available zones on the stereo.

NOTE: You can connect speakers to the speaker wires for the internal stereo amplifier while using the line out on zones 1 and 2, although adjusting the volume affects both the speakers connected to the internal amplifier and the line out. This may result in uneven volume levels.

  • Zone 1 speakers
  • Water-tight connection
  • Zone 2 speakers
  • Amplifier-on signal wire You must connect this wire to each amplifier connected to a zone line out. A connected amplifier must use the same ground (-) as the stereo for this signal wire to function correctly.Powered amplifier connected to the zone 2 line out

Fusion PartyBus Networking

The Fusion PartyBus networking feature allows you to connect multiple compatible stereos together on a network, using a combination of wired or wireless connections. You can group a compatible stereo, such as the Apollo WB670 stereo, with other compatible stereos connected to the network. Grouped stereos can share available sources and control media playback on all of the stereos in the group, which allows for a synchronized audio experience across the vessel. You can quickly create, edit, and break up groups as needed from any compatible stereo or remote control on the  network.

NOTE: A zone stereo, such as the Apollo SRX400, can create or join a group to control and play sources from other stereos, but it cannot share its sources with the group. For additional considerations when sharing sources, see the owner’s manual. You can use compatible stereos and remote controls, whether they are grouped or not, to adjust the volume of the available speaker zones for any stereo on the network.

Wired Networking Considerations

Wired Networking Considerations When you are planning your network installation, observe the following considerations for all wired connections.

  • You must connect devices using standard Cat5e or Cat6 network cables with RJ45 connectors.
  • You can use one network cable to directly connect two compatible devices.
  • You must use wired network switches and wired or wireless network routers when you connect more than two compatible devices to a network.
  • f you install a router on the network, it should be configured to be a DHCP server by default. See your router instructions for more information.
  • If you do not install a router, and there are no other DHCP servers on the network, you should configure one Fusion PartyBus stereo to be a DHCP server.

Wired Network Example for Direct Connections

No network setting changes are needed when connecting two devices together directly.

1 Fusion PartyBus zone stereo or remote control2 Apollo MS-WB670 stereo3 Fusion PartyBus stereo

Wired Network Example with a Switch or Router

You must use wired network switches, a wired network router, or both to connect more than two Fusion PartyBus devices.No network setting changes are needed when connecting multiple Fusion PartyBus devices using a switch, but if you are using a router, you may need to configure it to be a DHCP server. See your router instructions for more information.

Constructing a Network

You should have a basic understanding of networking when building a network for Fusion PartyBus devices. These instructions guide you through the basics of building and configuring a network, and should apply to most situations. If you need to perform advanced networking tasks, such as assigning static IP addresses to devices on the network or configuring advanced settings on a connected router, you  may need to consult a networking professional.

  1. Determine the installation location of the Fusion PartyBus devices you want to connect to the network.NOTE: Wired connections are more reliable than wireless connections. When planning your network, you should run network cables instead of using wireless connections when possible.
  2. Determine the installation location of any needed network routers or switches.
  3. Route Cat5e or Cat6 network cable to the installation locations of the stereos, switches, and router.
  4. Connect the network cables to the stereos, switches, and router.NOTICEDo not completely install the stereos yet. You should test the network before you install the stereos.
  5. Turn on all devices connected to the network, including wireless devices.
  6. If you are using a network router (wired or wireless), consult the documentation provided with your router to configure the router as the DHCP server, if necessary. All stereos should use their default configuration (DHCP CLIENT).
  7. Test the network by selecting > GROUPS to view a list of devices connected to the on the network, and select an option:
  • If any devices are not available to the network, troubleshoot the network Network Troubleshooting.
  • If all devices are available to the network, complete the installation for each stereo, if necessary.

Network Configuration

Setting the Stereo as the DHCP Server 

If you connected more than two network devices together directly or using a network switch or wireless access point and did not install a router, you should configure only one Fusion PartyBus stereo to be a DHCP server.

  1. Select   > SETTINGS.
  2. Select the name of the stereo.
  3. Select NETWORK > STATIC IP > SAVE.
  4. Select ADVANCED > DHCP SERVER > DHCP ENABLED > SAVE.

  2. Select NETWORK > ADVANCED > RESET > YES.

Advanced Network ConfigurationYou can perform advanced networking tasks on a Fusion PartyBus device, such as defining DHCP ranges and setting static IP addresses. See the owner’s manual for more information.

Network Troubleshooting

If you cannot see or connect to Fusion PartyBus devices on the network, check the following:

  • Verify that only one device, either a stereo or a router, is configured as a DHCP server.
  • Verify that all Fusion PartyBus devices, network switches, routers, and wireless access points are connected to the network and turned on.
  • Verify that wireless Fusion PartyBus devices are connected to a wireless router or wireless access point on the network.NOTE: Wired connections are more reliable than wireless connections. If possible, you should connect devices to the network using an Ethernet cable.
  • You may experience wireless interference if there are many nearby wireless access points. Change the channel on your router or wireless access point to test for and correct interference.
  • Connecting a Bluetooth® device to a stereo configured as a wireless access point or client may reduce wireless performance. Disconnect Bluetooth devices to test for and correct interference.
  • If you configured static IP addresses, verify that every device has a unique IP address, that the first three sets of numbers in the IP addresses match, and that the subnet masks on every device are identical.
  • If you have made configuration
