Using the Sensor Inputs

When the Control Panel sends out a macro to switch multiple A/V components on or off, discrete codes are normally used to ensure the state of the component. In some cases, only toggle codes are available: one command toggles between the on and off state, and there is no separate command for switching the component on and switching it off. In this event, the system may get out of sync. This problem can be solved by using power sensing:

A power sensor connected to an A/V component can detect whether it is switched on or off. By connecting the power sensor to the Extender, this information is subsequently transmitted to the Extender.

Some A/V components, such as receivers, have mini-jack outputs specifically for this purpose. These mini-jack outputs can be connected to the power sense inputs on the Extender.

For video sources, video sensor modules can be used.

Make sure that you create the specific power sensing commands in the action list of

Wizz.it Ex.

Note Sensor modules are not delivered with the Extender, but most available modules are compatible with the Extender. The power sense inputs are triggered by a voltage input between 5V and 30V.

Use standard wiring and

Phoenix connectors.

Use this wiring solution if the sensor module’s output provides a voltage level.

ENGLISH

Use this wiring solution if the sensor module is powered by the Extender (the output is a relay).
