Initial Planning

3 Initial Planning

Carefully plan your RC system layout to ensure a smooth and easy configuration and installation (refer to the SV-551, SummitView™ Essentials Kit and Standard Kit2 User Manual1), by:

Defining your requirements

Listing the peripheral devices and room items that will be included in the system

Planning the location of each device

Planning the function of each device

Make a detailed list of the functions and commands required of the system devices, as illustrated in the partial list in Figure 1:

Figure 1: Media Room Components List

Once this list is finalized and approved, you can carry on with the configuration and installation process.

Note that the RC configuration and installation processes are independent of each other. You do not have to connect the RC device before starting the configuration
