7.3 Zone Pre-Amp Outputs

In applications where more power than the 20 watts
per channel is desired, connect the CA4.4pi to an
external amplifier. Using standard RCA connectors,
wire from the pre-amp outputs of the CA4.4pi to the
amplifier's inputs.  A typical application for more power is when connecting an outside zone where the audio
power requirements would be much greater than an inside zone.

7.4 12-Volt Trigger Output

The 12 volt trigger is engaged when any of the zones are on. The
trigger can be used to engage any 12 volt triggered accessory, such
as a triggered AC outlet or audio amplifier. The connection for the
trigger is made by an 1/8” phono jack. The tip is (+) and sleeve is (-).

7.5 Mute Input

When used with the optional Doorbell or Telephone interface, the Mute Input mutes the audio to the speakers
for six seconds when either the doorbell is used or when the telephone rings. The connection for the Mute Input
is made by a 1/8” male jack. The tip is (+) and the sleeve is (-).

7.6 Connecting The Infra-red Components

• In order for your CA4.4pi to transmit the IR signal from the keypads to a source, an emitter must be connected from

the IR outputs marked 1-4. Each of these outputs are wired in series and must be connected in consecutive order.  For
example, the #1 emitter output must be connected in order for the # 2 emitter output to transmit the IR command.
