6. 

Connect a run cable from 
the specified OUTPUT jack 
on the module to the INPUT 
jack of the first emitter. 
Listen to each emitter as it is 
connected. If you cannot hear 
its “whooshing” sound:

a. 

Try a different emitter.

b. 

Test all four previous 
cables for continuity and 
shorts. Repair any faulty 
cables.

c. 

If a short is detected, the 

masking will shut off until 
the short is physically 
fixed. The error on the 
control module will 
remain until the error is 
cleared. (

see Clearing 

Error Codes, page 12

DO NOT put the input cable into 
the output port of the emitter. If 
sound is only heard by putting 
the cable in the output, there is a 
problem earlier in the cable run.

Be sure to fix any problems and 
hear the “whooshing” sound 
before installing the next emitter.

 

7.

 Connect the next OUTPUT 

cable to the emitter OUTPUT 
jack.

8. 

Run the cable to next 

designated tile specified on 
emitter layout and wiring 
diagram. Tie cables up to 
structure or suspend from 
deck as required by local 
building code.

9. 

On the next emitter, connect 

this cable to the INPUT jack.

10. 

Repeat Steps 4 through 9 for 

the remaining emitters on the 
home run.

11. 

Set sound masking volume 

levels for each zone, using 
either the front panel controls 
or the software interface. Set 
sound levels according to 
Table 1.
