CB60

PLEASE NOTE: 

Be sure the 781RG power supply is plugged into an un-switched AC outlet.  This maintains

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

USING THE CB60 AS AN EMITTER EXPANDER

There may be times when you wish to upgrade an existing CB12 or 791-44 Connecting Block system to
handle more emitters.  This can easily be
done by adding a CB60 as shown in 

Fig. 3

.

This will provide a total of 6 ports for emitters
using the CB12 and 15 ports if you are ex-
panding from a 791-44.   

Do not

 connect a

power supply to the CB60 when using it in this
way as an emitter expander.  It is not needed
and will damage power supplies if they are
plugged in!  Also, 

do not

 use a CB60 to

expand from a 789-44 or a CB20.  Expand
from a CB12 and a 791-44 only.

The CB60 also provides a convenient way to
expand emitters at the output of a controller
device, such as the 590-00 Programmable
Controller.  See 

Fig. 4

.

In the same manner, you may expand emit-
ters for other Xantech products, such as the
710 Fone Link, 792-10 Power Module, IR
routers, etc.  In these cases,  use the appropri-
ate mono mini plug cable, such as the Xantech part #6017400 (3.5 mm to 3.5 mm) or #6015900 (3.5 mm
to stripped bare wire ends), to interface between the output port of these devices and the "IR Receiver" input
port of the CB60.
