Quick Start Guide

Your Essentia Audio Distribution System is quick and easy to install. This guide outlines the necessary steps for an accurate and successful installation, and years of audio enjoyment.

Step 1:

Check your package for all of the components. Your box should contain the following items:

1NV-E6DMS 6-source, 6-zone digital audio distribution amplifier

6NV-E6DKPC keypads, with 1 bag of preprinted source buttons, ivory, and almond replacement keypad inserts for each

1NV-RC2 remote control with batteries

1NV-NEC 10 foot network cable

1NV-E6DEZP EZ Port connection hub

6 NV-VEC IR emitters

1AC power cord

Step 2:

Place the Essentia amplifier in its preferred location. The Essentia amplifier is designed to be located in the cen- tral media area where the home’s audio sources will be housed.

Step 3:

The Essentia amplifier should be turned on before any other cables are plugged in. This activates internal pro- tective circuitry. Once the Essentia amplifier is turned on, it should be left on.

Step 4:

When the amplifier is in its location and turned on, the audio sources can be connected using stereo RCA cables. These cables connect the left and right channels from the audio output of the source equipment to the appropri- ate source input on the Essentia amplifier. The IR (infrared) emitters should be plugged into the IR outputs on the back of the amplifier and attached to the IR window of the corresponding source equipment.

Step 5:

Each of the Cat-5 cables from the zones should be crimped with an RJ-45 connector using 568A or 568B wiring (see page for Cat-5 crimping instructions). Test each Cat-5 connection using a cable tester before proceeding with the installation. Each cable plugs into one of the RJ-45 connection jacks on the back of the supplied EZ Port. It is important for future reference to label each cat-5 cable for its appropriate listening zone. The order in which they are plugged into the EZ Port is irrelevant to the system’s operation.

Step 6:

Install the EZ Port in a standard dual gang low voltage bracket. We recommend the Carlon SC100R "Old Work Bracket", or the SC100A "New Construction Bracket". These are designed for low voltage electronics and have an open back for easy access to the back of the EZ Port.
