IV. Installing the Simplese Amplifier

The Simplese amplifier component is designed to be placed on a shelf or in a component rack. Rack ear mounts are supplied with the system. If you are using the rack ears and mounting the amplifier with other components, you should remove the feet. Remove the two screws at the front of each side of the lid and use the longer screws included with the rack ears to attach the ears to the Simplese amplifier.

The audio sources are plugged into the four source inputs on the back panel of the Simplese amplifier using stereo RCA cables, fig. 4.

V. IR Outputs

The Simplese System ships with four IR emitters for transferring IR data from the keypad receivers (located under the volume button) to the IR receiver on each piece of source equipment. There are two separate IR output sections on the back panel. The 38Khz outputs are used for most audio sources. The exception to this is cable and satellite boxes, which operate at a higher IR carrier frequency closer to 56Khz. A second source one and two 56Khz output is available for these devices. It is important that the output being used for each source matches the source input number. The outputs work individually with each source to allow independent source control. Simply plug the emitter into the appropriate IR output on the back of the Simplese amplifier and attach the flasher end over the IR receiver of the source equipment, fig. 5.

VI. Keypad and Zone Setup

Each keypad requires a specific zone setting to establish the keypad's location. This setting is made on the back of the keypad using an eight-position rotary switch. To set the switch, place a small slot- head screwdriver in the slot in the switch and turn it clockwise to the appropriate zone number 1-4, fig.

6.The remaining switch positions, 5-8, allow for an additional keypad in each zone. Position 5 corresponds to zone 1, 6 to zone 2, 7 to zone 3, and 8 to zone 4. The additional letters do not apply to Simplese. Note that the Allport only has four RJ45 jacks, so additional keypads require the use of a CAT5 splitter.
