Niles Audio LZR800 Connections Impedance Matching, Using the RSL-6 with Tube-Type Amplifiers

MODEL RSL-6Remote Controlled Speaker Selection System (continued)

APPLICATION NOTES

Connections Impedance Matching

have an external sensor in the same room as the RSL-6 you can avoid optical

If your amplifier has both “A” and “B” speaker pair outputs connect the RSL-6 to the “A” outputs. Do not connect any- thing to “B”. This will prevent the ampli- fier or receiver from driving an unusual- ly low impedance load.

Using the RSL-6 with Tube-Type Amplifiers

Virtually all tube amplifiers must be connected to a load at all times. If you are using the RSL-6 with a tube-type amplifier connect a 150 ohm, 5 watt resistor across the tube amplifier’s out- put in parallel with the RSL-6.

Use the SPEAKER DIP switches on the rear panel of the RSL-6 to tell the Micro-con- troller the impedance of each speaker pair. Then, set the AMP DIP switches to your amplifier’s recommended load (2, 4 or 8 ohms). This guarantees maximum performance from your amplifier.

Interfacing with a Multi-Room Infrared Repeater System

If you are using a Niles IR repeater sys- tem to relay remote control commands you may connect the FLASHER OUTPUT or OPTION OUT of the repeater directly to the IR DATA IN on the rear of the RSL-6. If you

X-10 Interfacing

If you are using X-10 to control your lights and you plan to control your RSL-6 with X-10, use the X-10 DIP switches to assign the RSL-6 a starting code which will not interfere with your lights.
