☛
USE ONLY M&S SYSTEMS BRAND CABLE
as called out in these instructions. The cable is designed and
constructed with electrical specifi cations necessary for proper audio performance.
I
MPORTANT: THE USE OF NON
M&S
S
YSTEMS’ BRAND CABLE OR CABLE SUBSTITUTION WILL VOID PRODUCT WARRANTY.
Note: All M&S Systems’ cable has M&S
Systems and the part number printed on it!
☛
DO NOT
power up master until all speakers and the amplifi er are connected.
☛
DO
ensure that all rough-in instructions have been followed before power is applied to system.
☛
DO NOT SPLICE CABLES.
Splices are unreliable and defeat the signal isolation properties of the cable.
☛
DO NOT COIL OR BUNDLE
the MS4X cable. This will cause electronic feedback.
☛
If extra cables have been run for possible future speaker additions, care must be taken that these cables do not get
connected to the control panel or amplifi er unit. Unterminated cables may damage the control panel or amplifi er.
☛
DO NOT
over-tighten the screws for the volume controls, speakers or the control panel to prevent cracking.

IRE PREPARATION
At each cable end, strip approximately 4 Inches of jacket (MS5XSC and MS2SXSC)
from wires and separate colored wires from each other. Strip 1/2 Inch of insulation
from each wire as shown in fi gure 1. On the MS7XSC, strip 1/4 Inch of insulation from
each wire as shown in fi gure 2.

ATELLITE VOLUME CONTROLS
Connect the shield wire from
outside shield of the MS5XSC to
the MS2SXSC shield wires.
DO
NOT
connect the shield wire for the
brown/gray pair at this end of the
cable! Wire nut each colored wire
to its respective wire as shown in
fi gures 3-6 for the volume control
to be used. Connect the BLUE and
VIOLET wires to the corresponding
terminals of the satellite speaker(s).
Mount the volume control to the
single gang box using the two
screws provided with the volume
control.

ATELLITE CEILING SPEAKERS
At each speaker
l o c a t i o n , s t r i p
approximately 4 Inches
of jacket from the
MS2SXSC cables and
separate the colored
wires from each other.
Strip 1/2 Inch of insulation
from each wire. Connect
the MS2SXSC cable to the
speaker as shown in
fi
gure 8. NOTE: The
bare drain wire from the
cable is not connected
and should be cut off.
On speakers equipped
with RED and BLACK
terminals, connect the BLUE wire to the BLACK terminal and the
VIOLET wire to the RED terminal.
S
ATELLITE WALL SPEAKERS
At each speaker location, strip
approximately 4 Inches of jacket from
the MS2SXSC cables and separate
the colored wires from each other.
Strip 1/2 Inch of insulation from each
wire. Connect the MS2SXSC cable
to the speaker as shown in fi gure 9.
Note: The bare drain wire from the
cable is not connected and should
be cut off. NOTE: On speakers
equipped with RED and BLACK
terminals, connect the BLUE wire to
the BLACK terminal and the VIOLET
wire to the RED terminal.
A
MPLIFIER MOUNTING
The amplifi er module will install on a
single vertical stud previously marked
during rough-in. The vertical height of the
amplifi er will allow complete coverage
over the wall openings for the remote
volume controls and control panel wiring.
Mark the location of the top mounting
keyhole and bottom mounting holes. With
the amplifi er removed verify the location
of the vertical stud by installing the
enclosed mounting screws at the marked
locations. Once the location of the stud
has been verifi ed, remove the screws.
Remove the cover from the amplifi er. While positioning the
amplifi er (with cover removed) into position, bring the volume
control and preamp cabling through the holes provided. Secure the
amplifi er to the wall in the marked locations with the screws provided.
FAILURE TO PROPERLY MOUNT THE AMPLIFIER MAY LEAD TO
AMPLIFIER DAMAGE AND/OR VOLUME CONTROL/PREAMP WIRING
DAMAGE.
C
ONTROL HOOKUP
Locate the MS7X5SC cable from the
Control Panel (MC960CP). Connect
each of the 7 colored wires and shield
drain wire from the MS7XSC cable to
the 8 pin terminal block as shown in
fi gure 11. Plug the 8 pin connector into
the jack labeled PREAMP
INTERCONNECT. Locate the
MS7X5SC cable from the second
power amplifi er (MC960PA), if used. Connect each of the 7 colored
wires and shield drain wire from the MS7XSC cable to the 8 pin
terminal block as shown in fi gure 11. Plug the 8 pin connector into
the jack labeled TO SECOND AMP.
Locate MS2SXSC cable from the Power Amp and connect the
BLUE and VIOLET wires to their respective terminals on the Power
Amp as shown in fi gure 12. Note: If additional Power Amps are
used, connect the shield drain wire of both the MS2SXSC cables
from the Control Panel and
the additional Power Amp
together using a wire nut.
Locate MS2SXSC cable
from the Control Panel
and connect the Blue &
Violet wires to their
respective terminals
on the Power Amp as
shown in Figure 12.
Note: The bare shield
wire from the MS2SXSC
is not connected and
should be cut off, unless
additional Power Amps
are used. In this case,
connect the shield wire
going to the next Power
Amp, to the drain wire
from the Control Panel.
Gather all volume
control cables (MS5XSC). Pigtail all shield drain wires (bare) from
the MS5XSC cables to the SHIELD terminal on the remote
amplifi er. Then connect each of the color coded wires to its
respective terminals as shown in Figure 12.

ONO CONFIGURATION
Each MC960PA remote
amplifi
er is equipped with
a stereo/mono select
jumper. All MC960PA
amplifi
ers are shipped
from the factory with this
jumper in the STEREO
position. If an amplifi
er is
required to drive more than
10 monaural speakers, this
jumper must be set to the
MONO position. Setting
the jumper to the MONO position will cause monaural
output to all speakers whether they are connected via
stereo controls or mono controls. The jumper setting of
one MC960PA amplifi
er has no effect on other MC960PA
amplifi ers.
