WIRING FOR REMOTE AUDIO SOURCES
RSP-1 Remote Source wall plates installed in locations where the audio sources
will be used and are wired back to the AD-8x
Use standard Cat-5 cable between the RSP-1 Remote Source Plate and the
RJ-45 jacks on the rear of the AD-8x. The RSP-1 has stereo RCA jacks and a
3.5mm mini stereo jack for connecting to the output of the audio source.
In addition to carrying the audio signals, the Cat-5 cable between the
RSP-1 and AD-8x carries IR control of the remote source from an RTI control
system. The control system delivers IR commands to the 3.5mm IR inputs on
the rear of the AD-8x.
NOTE:
The AD-8x can accommodate 500 total feet of Cat-5 cable for each
zone. For the most reliable operation, it is best that no single run of Cat-5
exceeds 250 feet. The correct wiring scheme for the Cat-5 cable is standard
EIA/TIA 568B.
CONTROLLING REMOTE AUDIO SOURCES
Remote audio sources can be controlled via infrared control delivered over the
same Cat-5 cable wired to the RSP-1 Remote Source Panel that is used for the
audio signal. The IR commands used to control the sources come from an RTI
control system which is wired to the IR inputs located on the rear of the AD-8x.
Each remote source has an IR input for independent control of that remote
source. The “All” input on the AD-8x provides IR control of all remote sources
when discrete control is not required.
