The procedure to connect the two controller amplifiers is:

1.Connect the “Data Out” jack on CI6 #1 to the “Data In” jack on CI6 #2.using the 3.5mm stereo patch cord.

2.Connect all of the up to seven sources using short as possible good quality RCA patch cords to CI6 #1 source inputs.

3.Connect CI6 #1 source outputs to CI6 #2 source inputs using good quality, short as possible RCA patch cords.

Page Inputs

On the rear of the CI6 there is a single page input on a stereo 3.5mm jack. This is for connection of external paging equipment like our DC102 door chime generator. The DC102 generates door chime sounds that are unique for the front, side and rear doors. These paging sounds can be heard via the CI6 throughout the home even if the CI6 is switched off or playing some other content.

To activate the paging override a 5-25 DC volts is applied and the override occurs when the voltage is present. The paging occurs about 1 second after the voltage is applied and continues until the voltage is removed. Call our technical support for further details.

Trigger output

The mono 3.5mm connector on the rear of the CI6 supplies 12 VDC (maximum 100 mA) when any or all of the zones are turned on.

Pass output

The PASS output port on the rear of the CI6 is for data signals going to an infrared generator. This is a stereo 3.5mm connector and is connected to all keypads in the system.
