While the Juice Goose CQ-3000 is a key component in the CQ Series, it stands out as a robust and dynamic solution for the remote activation of AC power, specifically designed to cater to both sensitive electronics and high-amperage equipment. This 30A power distribution system is engineered for seamless integration, requiring no additional controllers due to its built-in circuitry that responds to a simple contact closure, ensuring synchronized performance with other CQ Series devices.
The CQ-3000 is a hardwired model that boasts a single AC power output with a secure locking NEMA L5-30R connector. It is particularly suited for audio systems that include one or more high-current, low-frequency amplifiers, thanks to its high-performance components that provide an extra margin of performance for handling high in-rush currents.
Effortlessly connecting via a six-wire modular phone cable, the CQ-3000 can be networked with other CQ Series sequencers, allowing for coordinated power on and off cycles. This device simplifies the process by eliminating the need for time delay settings or additional equipment, as it automatically triggers its sequence event following the activation of a preceding CQ device.
Control line connectivity is straightforward with the CQ-3000. All CQ Series products feature Sequence Signal Input and Output connectors, facilitating a daisy-chain setup with standard 6-wire RJ-12 modular phone cables. This versatile communication link enables any CQ device to be incorporated at any stage within a power sequencing system, functioning as either a power sequencer or a controller without a cap on the number of interconnected CQ devices.
Activation of the sequence process is managed through a latching contact closure, allowing for various control options including a custom-mounted single pole switch, a relay, the unit's own control switch, or the Juice Goose RC-5 key switch control accessory. Additionally, it is compatible with control systems from leading manufacturers like Crestron and AMX.
The CQ-3000 is equipped with a three-position switch on its front panel, which becomes operational in the absence of a control cable connected to the Sequence Signal Input connector. This switch not only controls the unit's power sequencing but also manages the sequencing of any connected units via the Sequence Signal Output connector. A Manual On switch position is available for direct manual operation, providing a reliable override in the event of control circuit issues.
Monitoring the CQ-3000's operation is made easy with indicator lights on the front panel. The PROCESSOR light blinks to signify that the unit's control processor is active, while the POD light indicates the relay closure by the CQ-3000, confirming the successful engagement of power distribution. This level of monitoring ensures users can maintain oversight of the system's status at a glance.
In summary, the Juice Goose CQ-3000 is a sophisticated and reliable power distribution system that offers advanced sequencing capabilities, robust control options, and clear monitoring features, making it an indispensable asset for professional audio setups and other applications requiring meticulous power management.
