Nuvo NV-E6DMS, NV-E6DXS VI. Connecting the IR Emitters, VII. Expanding Essentia to 12 Zones

VI. Connecting the IR Emitters

(Fig. 5) Fig. 5

IR commands for the source equipment are transferred from the Essentia amplifier to the source equipment via mini IR mouse emitters. Six of these are supplied with your Essentia System. The emitter is plugged into the corresponding source IR output on the Essentia and then placed over the IR receiver window on the source component. The IR outputs are individu- ally routed to sources 1-6.

The two SUM outputs will flash any IR command that is sent from any of the zones. This is used to connect the NuVo T3 Tuner to the Essentia System or an IR blaster designed to flash IR commands to a variety of components. This is done by plugging a single mono 1/8" patch cable into the SUM IR output and into the Direct IR input on the T3.

VII. Expanding Essentia to 12 Zones

(Fig. 6) Fig. 6

Six additional listening zones can be added to the Essentia System using the Essentia Expander package. The expansion is easily done using the Source Link and Digital Link multi-pin outputs on the Essentia main amplifier.

The necessary cables for this are supplied with the Expander package. No other connections are necessary with the exception of the AC power cord and the addi- tional speaker terminations. The additional Cat-5 wires for the zones 7-12 plug into the EZ Port.
