SECTION 6.0: EXPANDING THE SYSTEM (Combining 2 BXAUDIO Controllers)
The BXAUDIO4X4 System can be expanded to up to
Expansion Procedure:
When expanded the system the following steps must be taken in the following order:
1.Wiring the System (See Expanded Wiring Connections) Note: Do not connect the Expansion cable until after the Master Unit is programmed.
2.Enable Expansion Mode on both the ‘Master’ and ‘Slave’ unit.
3.Program the Master Unit as in Section 5.0
4.Copy (Clone) the Master Unit to the Slave Unit.
Additional Components Needed:
1.Xantech Model AV61 Audio/Video Six Way Distribution Amplifier. (Sold Separately) - This device allows the single A/V outputs of source components to be ‘actively’ split to the inputs of both BXAUDIO4X4 Controllers. System requirement: 1 per source. Note: Basic AUDIO RCA ‘Y’ Jacks may be used
2.Xantech Model 283TP Emitter ‘Combiner’. (Sold Separately) - This emitter is a single ‘Mouse’ Emitter with two
