Power Supply Requirement:

1.Most IR receivers draw 2 milliamps (mA) without signal and 10 mA with signal (check specs. on actual model).

2.The maximum current for proper operation from the PS1 Power Supply is 200 ma.

3.The maximum current for proper operation from the PS2 Power Supply is 1000 ma.

4.When using combinations of receivers, do not exceed the maximum current ratings of the power supplies as noted above.

For example, 6 IR receivers and 4 emitters could be used with one PS1 Power Supply. If the current of the PS1 will be exceeded, use the PS2 power supply instead.

NOTE:

To avoid current "hogging", never connect regulated supplies, such as the PS1 and

 

PS2, in parallel!

CAUTION:

Do not use unregulated 12V power supply adapters from other manufacturers. These

 

may deliver excessive voltage to the IR receivers and cause them to “latch-up”. When

 

this occurs, the “talkback” LEDs and VE1 emitters (if used) will stay on continuously!

EMITTTER

EXPANSION

Fig. 4, below, shows the single common emitter port on the CB2Z connected to a CB1 Connecting Block (or an ACB1 Amplified Connecting Block). Also, if you need to drive more than 4 signal emitters from the common port, they must be driven by an ACBI Amplified Connecting Block.

 

Fig. 4: Using CB1 for Emitter Expansion

NOTE:

No power supply is connected to the CB1! It is not needed when the CB1 is

 

used strictly as an expansion block, as it is in this example. Also, if you need to drive

 

more than four single emitters from the COMMON port, they must be driven by an

 

ACB1 Amplified Connecting Block. See Fig. 5, next page.

CB2Z specifications

Sonance, a pioneer in high-performance audio solutions, has introduced the CB2Z, a cutting-edge in-ceiling speaker that epitomizes both innovation and sound quality. This speaker is designed to seamlessly integrate into any indoor environment, providing an immersive listening experience without sacrificing aesthetics.

One of the standout features of the Sonance CB2Z is its compact and unobtrusive design. Measuring just 6.5 inches in diameter, it can easily fit into various ceiling types, making it ideal for residential settings as well as commercial installations. The speaker is available in a round grille option, allowing it to blend effortlessly into the ceiling, or a square grille option for those who prefer a different aesthetic.

The CB2Z is equipped with cutting-edge technologies that enhance audio performance. Its custom-engineered 2-inch coaxial driver delivers a rich, balanced sound, catering to a wide frequency range. This design ensures that both music and dialogue are rendered with clarity and detail, elevating the overall listening experience. The speaker is optimized for both background music and more dynamic soundscapes, making it versatile for various types of audio playback.

One notable characteristic of the CB2Z is its advanced mounting mechanism. The speaker features a unique "invisible" installation system, allowing it to be flush-mounted into the ceiling with minimal effort. This not only streamlines the installation process but also ensures that the speaker remains secure and stable over time.

Additionally, the CB2Z supports Sonance's proprietary technology, which facilitates the integration of multiple speakers throughout a space using a single audio source. This capability allows users to create a multi-room audio system, making it perfect for home theater setups or extensive commercial applications.

With a power handling capability of up to 30 watts and a sensitivity rating of 86 dB, the CB2Z is engineered to deliver impressive sound levels while maintaining efficiency. It is also compatible with a variety of amplifiers, providing users with flexible setup options.

In conclusion, the Sonance CB2Z combines high-quality sound, innovative design, and user-friendly features, making it an exceptional choice for anyone looking to enhance their audio environment. Whether used in a home or business, this in-ceiling speaker exemplifies Sonance's commitment to excellence in audio technology.
