Cambridge Audio 840C user manual Custom Installation C.I. Use, Troubleshooting, There is no power

CUSTOM INSTALLATION (C.I.) USE

The 840C	features a	Control Bus	RS232C IR Emitter	Control Bus
input/output	that allow	un-modulated
			In	In	Out
remote control commands (positive logic,

TTL level) to be received electrically by the unit and looped to another unit if desired.

These control commands are typically generated by custom installation (multi-room) systems or remote IR receiver systems. The Control Bus sockets are colour-coded orange.

An IR Emitter Input is also provided that allows modulated IR remote control commands to be received electrically by the unit. Commands on this input operate the unit only and are not looped out demodulated on the Control Bus Output. This feature is useful for multi-room systems (such as the Cambridge Audio Incognito multi-room system) which feature routed I.R. emitter outputs. Instead of using window emitters stuck over the CD players front panel IR receiver, a mono 3.5mm mini- jack to 3.5mm mini-jack lead can be used for a more reliable electrical connection. An RS232 port is also featured which allows the 840C to be controlled by C.I. systems.

In addition the units feature 'direct' IR/Control codes as well as toggle codes for some of their features to simplify programming custom installation systems. Special direct On/Off and Mute commands can be accessed on the supplied remote control for teaching into C.I. systems as follows:

1.Press and hold the Standby button. The remote first generates it's standby (toggle) command. Keep the button held down, after 12 seconds a CD player “On” command will be generated. If the button is kept held down for a further 12 seconds, a CD player “Off” command is generated.

A full code table and RS232 protocol for this product is available on the Cambridge Audio website at www.cambridge-audio.com.
