Figure 4 - Advanced Wiring Configuration using 490-95, CB12, 789-44, 781RG and multiple 286M’s 

 

5.  If a local Emitter is needed on the CB12, you will need to place a 470 Ohm Resistor in Series with the Signal 

Output on the CB12. To Wire in this fashion: 

a.  Cut a standard Mouse Emitter (282M or 283M) approximately 12inches from the 3.5mm Mono Mini Jack. 

You will now have 2 cables; one with a 3.5mm Mono Mini Jack and one with the Mouse Emitter.  

b.  Wire the 2 leads of the Mono Mini Jack side to a terminal Strip.  
c.  On the Terminal Strip, opposite the lead with the White Stripe (Signal) connect one side of the 470 Ohm 

Resistor.  

d.  Wire the other side of the resistor to the lead with the White Stripe on the Mouse Emitter.  
e.  Connect the Black Wire of the Mouse Emitter to the Terminal Strip opposite the Black Wire (GND) from 

the 3.5mm Mono Mini Jack.  

This will keep the proper load balance and prevent miscommunication with the Emitters on the 789-44 CB. 

 

3.5MM MINI PLUG PINOUT 

There might be times when the 490-95 needs to be wired directly to a Terminal Block. In that case you will need to cut off 
the 3.5mm jack and wire according to

CAUTION:

  With any of these systems, be sure the 781-RG Power Supply is plugged into an un-switched AC outlet. This 

maintains the 490 system in "stand-by" operation so that power-on commands can be sent to the controlled equipment.
