4. Settings & Operation

DIP Switch Settings

There are two groups of DIP switches on the rear panel of the D5RH that must be set prior to operation:

SOURCE INPUT GAIN

KEYPAD PAIRING

ANALOG SOURCE INPUT GAIN

Analog Audio SOURCE 3 and 4 have a corresponding DIP switch to adjust the input level relative to the other sources. Once all connections are made, the Analog Audio Source should be adjusted for clipping (distortion) before the installation is completed.

To adjust ANALOG SOURCE INPUT GAIN DIP switches:

1Ensure that the Analog Audio Source is connected properly to SOURCE 3 or 4.

2Power up each source and turn on an audible signal (Press PLAY, tune to a station, etc.).

3Select the Source (3 or 4) from the zone’s D5KP Amplifier Keypad.

4Adjust the zone’s volume to a normal, comfortable listening level.

5Select SOURCE 1 and then SOURCE 2 and compare the levels to SOURCE 3 and/or SOURCE 4.

6If the analog source(s) are playing at a softer volume than the other sources, position the DIP switch for that source to the BOOST (UP) position.

7Observe the CLIP LED on the front of the D5RH. If it lights up constantly or consistently, the source’s output level is too high and needs to be adjusted. In this case, position the appropriate DIP switch to the DEFAULT (DOWN) position.

8Repeat this process for the other analog source.

ZONE PAIRING

The ZONE PAIRING DIP switches allow each of the zones to be paired or grouped with any other zone. Any zone that is in the UP position will be paired with any other zone that is also placed in the UP position. This feature is useful to create large “party” zones where combined areas of the house share audio and system control.
