I'm attempting to use the 12V trigger on the Sony VPL-VW60 (Black Pearl) projector to turn on an auxilliary fan in my projector case. I've run a 1/8" mono audio jack to the 12V input on a Russound ACT-1 switched AC outlet. My fan is then plugged into the switched AC socket on the ACT-1. The idea is that when the projector is turned on, the ACT-1 will switch on - and send power to my fan.
Unfortunately, it does not work. The only conclusion I can come to is 1) The Sony trigger is not providing enough current to trip the relay in the ACT-1 - or 2) the ACT-1 unit is somehow defective. I suspect it's number 1.
Any ideas?
