This tells the amp to play all channels even if only one pair of
RCAs is connected. EXAMPLE: If the head unit only has one
pair of RCA outputs then you must plug them into the CH1/2
connections and set the switch to 2. This tells the amp that you
are using one set of RCAs and it needs to play all five channels
regardless. Ifyou have four RCAs, then set it to 4 and so on.
