Introduction
Thank you for purchasing your new Hi-Fi2 by HAI audio distribution system. You are about to enjoy
the freedom and convenience of listening to and sharing music from your stereo, iPod™, satellite radio,
digital cable TV, computer, CD player, or any other music source in any room in your home.
Hi-Fi2 by HAI is an 8-source, 8-zone (expandable to 16 zones) audio distribution system that powers
speakers through digital amplification. Its modular design gives you the flexibility for expansion as
your needs change.
General
Each of the eight possible audio sources is connected directly to Remote Input Modules (RIM) in rooms
that will have music sources that you wish to use. When you plug any music source into a RIM using a
standard stereo input jack, it can be shared with any room that has a Volume-Source Control (VSC).
Additionally, each RIM features a routed IR emitter jack and includes a flasher to allow you to use the
remote control of your source equipment in any room that has a VSC.
The audio sources can be selected and controlled by any VSC. The VSC provides the ability to change
the power state, volume setting, balance setting, treble setting, bass setting, and loudness setting for the
respective audio zone. The brightness of the display and the initial volume setting and paging volume
settings for each audio zone can also be configured.
The VSC allows you to view metadata feedback (album, artist, and track) and allows for basic transport
controls (play, pause, next track, and previous track) for supported sources. Additionally, each VSC
includes an IR receiver that allows you to remotely control the Hi-Fi2 system and/or audio sources from
any audio zone in the house.
You can also use the VSC to control advanced features of Hi-Fi2. Using the Advanced Menu, you can
set the connection status and source gain for each source, whether IR is enabled or disabled, and whether
IR is passed to the connected audio sources.
Furthermore, Hi-Fi2 by HAI can plug and play with HAI Omni and Lumina home control systems.
When connected, the HAI controller can set the source and volume of each audio zone for parties,
watching TV, morning news, or any other activity. Any changes made to the power state, volume, or
source at a VSC will be updated on the HAI controller and displayed on an HAI OmniTouch
touchscreen.
