Installation

Connecting Sources (Audio Inputs/Outputs)

Up to eight audio devices can be connected to the Tango Controllers via the Sources INPUT and OUTPUT RCA connectors on the rear panel (see FIG. 1 on page 1). Industry standard RCA connectors provide line-level input and output connections for devices such as CD, DSS, MP3 players etc.

Each audio input has a corresponding buffered output used to connect the audio sources to additional Tango Controllers or to other devices that share the audio sources (FIG. 3).

Connecting IR Outputs

Tango Controllers provide eight 3.5mm mono IR Output jacks for CC-NIRC NetLinx IR Emitter Cables (supplied). Commands received by the Tango Controller from the Metreau keypads are processed and sent via the IR Emitter Cable to the controlled device.

CC-NIRC NetLinx IR Emitter Cables attach to the controlled audio device’s IR sensor with double-sided tape (included), and connect to the Tango Controller via the IR OUTPUT jacks on the rear panel (FIG. 4).

Tango controllers support RC5 and RC6 IR codes. Codes that fall outside of this range may not function with the Controller.

Connecting Zone Outputs

Tango Controllers can be accessed by SWT Metreau keypads (DAS-MET6SRC and DAS-MET-NUM) to provide basic transport control, source selection and volume up and down, as well as enhanced controls including direct access capability, favorite’s source selection, zone grouping, alarm clock setting, and Keypad lockout.

The Matrix Numeric (DAS-KP series) and LCD Keypads (DAS-KP-LCD series) are also supported by Tango Controllers.
