option).
Connect audio L/R on the AB-203 to
the tape monitor output of the receiver.
Connect a
source to the inputs on the AB-203.
Use an IR-3001 emitter placed over the
IR receiver on your source to allow IR
control through the keypad. (IR option).

Single Room Diagram
CAT5 cables
... Follow the color codes as shown on the connectors and maintain the
stripe/solid sequence shown here. Use 110 punch down tool only. (Never use a
screwdriver to punch down UTP wires. It will cause intermittent connections and damage
or destroy the 110 connector.)
Loop out
... Use this to expand to an additional AB-404.
This connector only provides audio signals to an additional AB-404. It cannot be used to
directly connect a fifth AB-124 to the system.
(See corresponding numbers on opposite page)
In this system
four rooms listen to the same audio program. Each room has
independent volume controls.
T
his is a single source system. All speakers play the
same audio. Using the IR option, you can control the components from any room.
You can change the system input from FM to the CD player, select another satellite
radio station, or pause the CD.
In some cases it may be desirable to create a single room system that allows a
source component to play through in-wall speakers. The AB-203 and AB-T2454
can be used together to supply audio and power to a single AB-124 keypad.
Volume indicators
... The LEDs indicate the volume level. If the Status is <off>, the LEDs
will be dark. Pressing the UP/DOWN keys will light the LEDs for a short period to show the
stored volume level.
