C4630 SE HOME AUDIO SYSTEM

Control Output, Control Input and Sync Connections (see Figure 11)

Control Out Terminal

One 2-wire screw connector that outputs 12VDC @ 100mA when at least one C4630 SE zone is active. Turns OFF (0VDC) when all zones are OFF. Can be used for triggering external devices such as a zone-specific external amplifier. Accepts one pair 14 – 24 AWG wire.

CONTROL INPUT Terminal

General trigger input that can be used for Paging or sense input as part of a C4630 SE STAT U S test in a macro. Requires 5 – 24V AC or DC @ 100mA. Accepts one pair 12 –24AWG wire.

and Sync Connections

1. Strip approximately ¼" of insulation from each conductor and twist the strands until tight to prevent stray strands.

2.Be sure to maintain proper polarity by connecting the appropriate ‘+V’ and ‘GND’ terminals on the device to the appropriate ‘+V’ and ‘GND’ terminals on the C4630 SE. Be sure connections are tight and that there are no frayed ends sticking out that could cause a short-circuit.

SYNC Connections

Two 3.5mm mini jacks used to trigger-link up to four C4630 SEs for Party Mode control (see sidebar) and provide communication between multiple C4630 SE units that form large systems with more than 6 zones. Use mono 3.5mm mini cables to daisy-chain the Sync jacks of all C4630 SE units in the system.

Audio and IR will pass-through multiple C4630 SEs that are in the Standby mode. Power for the source components should be managed separately or left ON.

If no other zones are ON and a zone on a C4630 SE is turned ON with a Source button Press, only that C4630 SE and that zone will turn ON.

PARTY MODE

In a system comprising multiple C4630 SEs with SYNC connections, if any system zone configured for Party Mode is turned ON with a PRESS -AND-

HOLD , a sync code will be sent to the other C4630 SEs to turn ON all zones configured for Party Mode. Source and Paging audio signals will be shared between the C4630 SEs as well as source component IR control codes.

When Party Mode is activated all zone and system functions with the exception of Programmed IR will function the same as on a system with a single C4630 SE. See page 29 for more information about Party Mode.
