Note:
-
Only the first 32 zones can be controlled using the wall mounted control panels.
-
A zone can be controlled by a maximum of 32 wall mounted control panels.
-
The maximum combined cable length of the wall mounted control panels should be less then
500 meters (RS485 specification).
Using the Audio Link
At the rear panel two D-sub 25 pole connectors are available to link through audio of one R1 to
another R1.
Make sure that when you link through audio from one R1 to another, no audio sources are
connected to the inputs of the R1 where you use the Audio Link Input. So the rule is: when you
use the Audio Link Input, no other audio sources are connected to the Line Inputs.
The advantage of the Audio Link is that when you have 8 or less input sources and need more
then 8 Zone outputs, you can connect the input sources to another R1 with one single cable. This
means a smaller pile of cables at the rear and a cleaner rack setup.
