Local Sources to Touch Pads

Local sources are only available within the area that they are installed. They will not be avail- able to other areas of the house as they are not distributed by the DH44/DH46X. Run lengths of Cat-5 from any local (in-room) source to the touchpad located in that area.

Expanded 4 Source, 8-28 Zone System

DH46X Expansion Router

Figure 2-5shows an expanded system with four sources and ten zones with the addition of Local Sources in four of the zones. Each zone can have one local source. The system is com- prised of a DH44 Digital Audio Router, DH46X Expansion Router, DHTP1 Amplified Touchpad Controllers, DHSIP Local Source Wall Plates and ATON Storm Series Speakers. This confi gura- tion provides audio from each source into each zone as well as control of each source from each zone. Zones with Local Sources have access to and control of those sources, but the Local Sources are not available to other zones within the system. This system can be expanded up to 28 zones using additional DH46Xs.
