Control4 Speaker Point Installation Guide 1 Speaker Point Installation GuideSupported Models This installation and user guide covers this Speaker Point model(s):General DescriptionThe Speaker Point is intended for Control4 system users who want to add new audio zones to their home using an easy and cost effective method. Users can locate the Speaker Point in remote locations to enable audio zones beyond the area near the audio rack. It is an end point of digital audio distribution and can be used to amplify and distribute an audio source to bookshelf speakers in remote locations throughout the home. It receives a digital audio signal from a source via Ethernet, Wi-Fi or line in and distributes that audio directly through a pair of connected speakers. The Speaker Point transmits the source information and is controlled via an Ethernet connection or its built-in Zigbee wireless connection. The Speaker Point is designed with a compact profile and small footprint so that it can be located discreetly throughout the home (such as on a bookshelf, an overhead plant shelf, or even in attic space). It is a small box (less than ½ rack size, approximate dimensions are 1.5” Tall x 6.5” Wide x 6.5” deep). Its unique design allows it to be stored horizontally or vertically (with the special bracket included). If a user chooses to place a Speaker Point in his standard EIA rack of components, then the rack shelf must be set at one rack unit high to hold the unit. The Speaker Point has one stereo speaker pair output and one analog output for external power amps. The on-board digital 50 watt per channel amplifier powers local bookshelf or in-wall speakers. The user has the ability to adjust bass, treble, loudness, balance and mute from local controls. WARNING!
