Integra RDC-7.1 Using an External Device with 12V Trigger Terminal, USA and Canadian models

Using an External Device with 12V Trigger Terminal

– USA and Canadian models –

You can turn on the AV devices connected to the RDC-7.1 automatically using the output signal from the 12V TRIGGER OUT terminal on the RDC-7.1.

Making a Connection

You can connect up to five devices to the 12V TRIGGER Phoenix (Pluggable Connector) terminal (larger one) and one device to the 12V TRIGGER OUT E terminal (mini-jack).

You can connect any external devices to the RDC-7.1 whether the connected device is located in the main, Zone 2 or Zone 3 room.

There are five terminals for connecting external devices and their maximum current allowed to be connected are as follows:

A:Up to 200 mA.

B, C and D: Up to 100 mA each.

E:Up to 100 mA for the total current value of both the Phoenix and mini-jack terminals.

Before connecting an external device, check that the cur- rent value for the 12V TRIGGER terminal of the con- nected device does not exceed the target terminal’s maximum current above.

When using the 12V TRIGGER Phoenix (Pluggable Connector) terminal:

1.Loosen the screws using a flatblade screwdriver to open the shutters.

2.Connect the GND wire (black) to the GND terminal, and close the shutter.

3.Connect the remaining wire to any of the terminals between A and E, and close the shutter.

5.Connect the Phoenix terminal firmly to the 12V TRIGGER OUT socket on the RDC-7.1.

Push the connector into the socket until it clicks.

6.After making connections, you have to configure the association between the room where the device is used and the device to be turned on. For performing this setting, refer to “12V Trigger Assign” of “Input Setup” section on page 102.

When connecting the IntegraRESEARCH’s RDA-7.1 power amplifier:

Connect the amplifier to the 12V TRIGGER OUT A 200mA MAX terminal.

When using the mini-jack 12V TRIGGER OUT E terminal:

When you want to connect two devices to both the Phoe- nix terminal E and mini-jack terminal simultaneously, you can connect them as long as the total current value of their 12V TRIGGER terminals will not exceed 100 mA.
