Russound ST1 Installation Manual

CONNECTIONS WITH C-SERIES CONTROLLERS 

After mounting the ST1 in the desired location, connections for audio, 

communication, antenna signal, and power can be made. 

First set the Source ID switch to the value representing the source input to be 

used on the C-Series controller i.e. 2 = Source 2. 

Next, connect the supplied RCA audio patch cables from the ST1 Audio 

Outputs to the source audio inputs on the C-Series controller that match the 
Source ID switch setting made. 

Next connect the RNET Link cable from the ST1 to the C-Series controller or to 

another RNET link port that exists in the Russound system such as that found 

on another Russound source.

Then connect the AM and FM antennas. Make sure that the antennas are 

positioned away from metal object or dense materials such as concrete to 
improve reception.

Finally the AC power cable may be connected to the ST1 then plugged into 

the electrical outlet.
