7.0. Control Pad Setup

7.1 Factory New Installation
The installed Control Pads, NV-E6GCP, NV-I8GCP, NV-CTP36 are
designed to automatically recognize the number address, 1- 8 from
the rotary switch setting on the Renovia Zone Amplifier when they
are plugged in the zone NuVoNet RJ45 connection.
When first plugged in, the current firmware version will display, and
go dark. Press the Power Button to turn it on and begin controlling
the zone. When it is turned on it will display the first configured
source in the system. This is typically the built-in AM/FM Tuners as
source 1. At this point the system is fully controllable from that zone.
Repeat this procedure for each of the remaining zones in the system.
If the Control Pad beeps and indicates a conflicting zone address,
reset the zone number on the NV-RVZA50 zone amplifier. Each
amplifier must have a unique number setting.
Control Pad Firmware Upgrade (as shown in Fig. 44)
When first plugged in and addressed, the Control Pads will poll the
main unit for the correct firmware version. If they are at a lesser
version number, an upgrade notice will appear on the display. It is
important to allow this process to complete. When the Control Pad is
finished upgrading itself it will turn off. At that point, it is ready for
zone control use.

If you have chosen to “Slave” additional Control Pads to other zones,
they must be plugged directly into the Main Source Hub. When you
have loaded a configuration into the Main Source Hub, the
configured zone names will appear starting with the first. The used
zone numbers and associated names will be grayed out. To set the
zone, scroll the highlight using the arrow keys to the desired zone
name and press the OK button. The Control Pad will flash the
version-number screen one more time and immediately turn off.
When powered on, the addressed Control Pad will then go to the first
established source.
At this point, the zone may be operated by the parameters set in the
configuration. Zone settings may be modified using the MENU key.
7.2 Reprogramming the Zone Address
This procedure allows an addressed Control Pad to be moved to a
new location. Within the main menu of each zone, go to Setup.
Within the Setup options, scroll to Advanced Settings and to Zone
Number. All the used addresses will be grayed out. Any available
addresses will be accessible. Scrolling to None will erase the current
address. Once a zone address is erased the Control Pad can be
installed in any other zone.
