The essential setup tasks are: 1.Plan Your Physical Layout 2.Connect Audio Input Sources and Speakers 3.Connect to the Network and Power 4.Set Up Logical Connections 5.Set Network Settings This chapter describes, in general terms, how to set up the physical connections required for the Multi Channel Amplifier and all of the devices associated with it. To set up the logical connections required, refer to Control4 Composer User Guide software documentation. Plan Your Physical Layout This section can help you plan your physical connections. Use a worksheet to plan your amplifier connections: Using the worksheet provided in Table 2-1 below, identify the connection you will use for all planned connections. 10 Output examples: Speakers 8 stereo channel outputs Amplifier Outputs— Input examples: CD changers, VCRs, TVs, DVD changers, or Media Controllers 8 stereo sources Audio Inputs— A1B A2B A3B A4B A5B A6B A7B A8B Table 2-1. Multi Channel Amplifier Connection Worksheet WARNING! Connecting speaker wires or input cables while the Multi Channel Amplifier is powered, may cause shock and could damage the amplifier. Connect Audio Input Sources and Speakers 1. Ensure the amplifier power cord is unplugged before connecting speakers and audio sources. 2. Connect up to eight stereo audio source devices to the RCA line level input jacks (the top row of connector on the back of your amp). Sources may include line level audio outputs from devices such as a Control4 Home Theatre Controller or Media Controller, tuners, CD or tape players, etc. Use the worksheet on the previous page to keep track of which source is connected to which amplifier input. 3. Connect speakers to the audio output jacks. Tighten the binding posts to ensure a good electrical connection to the speaker wires (even if you are using banana plugs, it is important to tighten the binding posts). Do not bridge outputs. The outputs on the C4-16AMP3 cannot be bridged. Do not connect black terminals together. Do not connect the black terminals to ground. The black terminals are not at ground potential and connecting them together or to ground can damage the amplifier. Use the work sheet on the previous page to keep track of which speaker zones are attached to which amplifier output channels. 11 Connect to the Network and Power 1. If you are using an Ethernet connection for the Multi Channel Amplifier, use a standard 10/100 Base T Ethernet cable to connect the Ethernet port on the amplifier to your network. NOTE: While the Multi Channel Amplifier can be controlled via either Zigbee or Ethernet networks, Control4 recommends that you use an Ethernet connection whenever possible as this will allow firmware upgrades to be performed on the product. The firmware on the amplifier cannot be upgraded over the Zigbee network. 2. Connect the power cord provided to the back of the Multi Channel Amplifier and to the power outlet. Once the power cord is connected, the Multi Channel Amplifier should power up. Set Up Logical Connections Physical and logical connections are required in order to control, navigate, and use the Multi Channel Amplifier as designed. Thus far you have set up the physical connections for the Control4 Multi Channel Amplifier. To complete the logical setup, use Control4 Composer Pro software (available to trained installers only) installed on a PC connected to the home network. For instructions, refer to the Control4 Composer Pro User Guide. 12 Set Network Settings 1. At the LCD screen, press the Network button. 2. On the Network Configuration screen, choose an Ethernet or ZigBee network by rotating and pressing the Select Dial. 3. If the amplifier is set to use a ZigBee network, the EUID, Gateway, and ZigBee channel number are displayed. The EUID and Gateway are static fields. The Zigbee channel number can be changed. Press the Select Dial to enter edit mode. Rotate the dial or use the Up or Down button to change the channel number.
