Wall Mounted Control Panels (Optional)
The R1 Multi-room amplifier can be equipped with wall mounted control panels to control each
Zone output. A Zone output can be controlled by more then one wall mounted control panel.
The maximum number of wall mounted control panels connected to a R1 multi-room amplifier is
eight.
These wall mounted control panels are controlled by a RS485 data bus and must be connected to
the R1 with “twisted pair” or “CAT5” cable.
Following settings can be changed:
-
Volume of the Zone output which the panel is configured for (e.g. Zone 1)
-
Input source selection for the Zone output. (e.g. CD player, Tuner, Computer, …)
The wall mounted control panel can be configured to control the settings of a Zone output (e.g.
Living room, Board room …). This is done by jumper settings on the inside of the wall mounted
control panel.
If the wall mounted control panel is connected to the R1, and the R1 is turned on, the digit on the
wall mounted control panel will show a zero for a couple of seconds, for the next couple of
seconds it will show the zone output for which the wall mounted control panel is configured and
last it will keep displaying the selected input source.
When changing the volume of the zone output, the digit on the wall mounted control panel will
show the zone outputs volume. The volume will be changed in smaller steps then the digit can
show. If one of the volume control buttons is held down, the volume will keep increasing or
decreasing. After the change has been made, the digit will show again the selected input source.
