Qt X Sound Masking System
Installation and Operation Guide
page 5
4-Pin Logic I/O - 2 ports
Two triggers for zone muting or indication for paging application.
6. 4-Pin Contact Closure - 2 inputs
This contact closure is provided in order to mute audio or sound masking in the
zone or system in the event of a fire emergency or request to page. These inputs
should be connected to the fire alarm panel (port 1) or paging system (port 2 -
configured as Push-to-Talk).
7. 4-Pin Privacy Light Output - 2 outputs
The privacy lights ports enable connections to (2) privacy lights panels which
indicate when sound masking is enabled in a certain zone. Each can be assigned
to a different zone when configuring the system in the web interface.
8. 3-Pin MIC/Line Audio Inputs - 2 inputs
Two MIC/line audio inputs may be connected to an external audio source such
as a music player or an external paging controller. This allows distribution of
networked audio throughout the configured zones.
9. Outputs
The Qt X 300 supports three outputs of sound masking and audio while the
Qt X 600 has six outputs. Emitter connections are made via CAT5e cable from
the output RJ45 connectors (6 and 12 RJ45 connectors respectively). Each
output can accommodate two cable runs (A&B) that can carry up to half of the
emitter total for the output. Both A&B runs on a single output must share the
same type of emitter (either Standard or Active). Both runs on an output are
matched in all settings and are detailed on
pages 16-18
.
1. LCD Display
The LCD display indicates system statuses and parameters. Users may navigate
through the display to view the current IP address and network mask of the
device, view current operating mode of the device (unconfigured, configured,
updating firmware, etc.) and view any faults present.
2. Function/Navigation Buttons
Function/navigation buttons allow navigating through information provided in the
LCD display.
3. Factory Reset
Insert pin to depress the switch, press and hold for 10 seconds. This will return
the unit to factory settings, cause all configuration to be cleared and the device
to reboot.
WARNING:
Doing this will take the device back to its unconfigured state and
delete any associated input / output device settings from local memory.
4. Power Connector
Connection for an external (included) 24V 90W power supply.
IMPORTANT:
Always plug / unplug the power supply at the wall outlet.
5. Network Control / Media Ports - 2 ports*
RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet port connectors that support AVB and Dante media
streams (Dante and AES67 supported on the 300D/600D models only). In dual
cable mode the left one (#1) the default media port, but in single cable mode it
can be both control and media. The right (#2) port is the default control port in
dual cable mode. Port 2 is disabled in single cable mode.
