1. INTRODUCTION
The Legrand lyriQ™ 4x8 Zone Expander for Unity, P/N
AU1023 (see Figure 1), gives the homeowner the ability
to easily support 16 individual audio zones in a Unity
environment. It is housed in the structured wiring
enclosure, and connected between two lyriQ™ Four
Source, Eight Zone Distribution Modules (P/N AU1002)
and the Unity Integration Module (P/N HA6001).
The lyriQ™ Zone Expander for Unity is used as an
integral part of the lyriQ™ Audio System, which utilizes
Category 5 technology to distribute high quality audio to
remote locations via Category 5 cable, creating a
versatile whole-house audio system that will fill your
rooms with high quality sound for years to come.

2. DESCRIPTION
To support 16 lyriQ™ audio output zones in one lyriQ™ Multi-source system, the 4 audio sources from a
combination of a lyriQ™ Triple Source Input (P/N F7428 or AU1011-xx for flush-mount) and a lyriQ™ Single
Source Input (P/N F7398 or AU1004-xx for flush-mount) are fed to the lyriQ™ Zone Expander for Unity, which in
turn feeds those inputs to two lyriQ™ Four Source, Eight Zone Distribution Modules, effectively giving the
homeowner 16 audio output zones (see Figure 2). The IR signal lines are also passed along to the output zones,
and the audio interrupt functionality normally associated with our Intercom system is also supported.
NOTE: The Unity Zone Expander does not require an external power supply, as required power comes
from the attached lyriQ™ Four Source, Eight Zone Distribution Modules.

3. INSTALLATION
Installation of the Legrand lyriQ™ 4x8 Zone Expander for Unity and related components, may be
accomplished at multiple times during new construction, (at “Rough-in” before the drywall is installed, and at
“Trim-out” after the drywall is installed and painted), or as an upgrade to an existing lyriQ™ Multi-source
system to expand its support from 8 to 16 output zones (see Figure 2).
IMPORTANT: Read the documentation that is included with all associated lyriQ™ Audio products
before installation of any single component! If you are unsure of any of the following installation
procedures contact Legrand Technical Support @ 1-800-321-2343 option 1 or contact a Legrand
installer.
NOTE: To provide ultimate flexibility, run three Category 5 cables from the lyriQ™ Source Input area
(such as the Entertainment Center area) to the lyriQ™ Zone Expander for Unity in the enclosure. Also,
run a 16/4 speaker cable, along with the Category 5 cable, from the lyriQ™ Four Source, Eight Zone
Distribution Modules to each Keypad Volume Control location to support the power requirements now
or in the future for High Performance lyriQ™ Keypad Volume Controls. Of course you will also need a
16/2 cable to each speaker from the Keypad Volume Control.
A. "ROUGH-IN" STEPS
1. Run three Category 5 cables to the enclosure from the room location containing the lyriQ™ Source
Inputs (typically the entertainment center location).
2. Run Category 5 cables with 16/4 speaker cables to the enclosure from each room that will contain the
lyriQ™ Keypad Volume Controls.
NOTE: Always follow TIA-570-B wiring standards for installing and terminating Category 5 cable.
Failure to follow the correct wiring standard could result in damaged equipment and/or electrical
interference issues.
NOTE: Maintain a minimum 12” separation between Category 5 cable and any 120VAC cabling.
NOTE: The 16/4 speaker cable is for support of the power requirements of the High Performance
lyriQ™ Keypad Volume Controls
B. "TRIM-OUT" STEPS
1. At the location of the lyriQ™ Single Source Input, if it is a Flush-mount version (P/N AU1004-xx),
terminate one of the Category 5 cables with an RJ-45 Plug using the T568A wiring standard, then
plug it into the back of the Flush-mount Single Source Input and mount it in the low voltage bracket or
electrical box. If it is a standalone version (P/N F7398), pull the Category 5 cable from the enclosure
through the low voltage bracket or electrical box, and terminate it on an RJ-45 insert, then snap it into
a wall plate which is mounted to the low voltage bracket or electrical box.
2. At the location of the Triple Source Input, if it is a Flush-mount version (P/N AU1011-xx), terminate
two of the Category 5 cables with RJ-45 Plugs using the T568A wiring standard, then plug them into
the back of the Flush-mount Triple Source Input and mount it in the low voltage bracket or electrical
box and cover with a wall plate. If it is a standalone version (P/N F7428), pull two Category 5 cables
from the enclosure through the low voltage bracket or electrical box, and terminate them on RJ-45
inserts, then snap them into a wall plate which is mounted to the low voltage bracket or electrical box.
Then run Category 5 jumpers from wall plate to the Triple Source Input.
NOTE: The lyriQ™ Four Source, Eight Zone Distribution Module has three source input jacks
labeled “Single” and “Multi A and B”. It is very important that the Category 5 cables from the
Source Inputs are run from the correct source to the correct jack. Also make sure that no Power
Supplies are connected to the Distribution Module before performing the next steps.
3. At the enclosure: Install the lyriQ™ Zone Expander for Unity and each lyriQ™ Four Source, Eight
Zone Distribution Module in an On-Q style enclosure using the included plate's tabs and push pins. If
installing into an existing bay-style bracket, simply discard the mounting plate and secure the module
to the bracket with the push pins in each module corner.

4. Terminate the three Category 5 cables run from the single and triple sources with RJ-45 plugs using
the T568A wiring standard.
5. Plug the Category 5 cable from the Single Source Input into the SOURCE INPUTS -> SINGLE jack
on the lyriQ™ Zone Expander for Unity and run Category 5 jumpers from each SINGLE output jack to
each SOURCES -> SINGLE input jack on the two lyriQ™ Four Source, Eight Zone Distribution
Modules.
6. Plug the Category 5 cable from the “A” output of the Triple Source Input into the SOURCE INPUTS ->
MULTI A jack on the lyriQ™ Zone Expander for Unity and run Category 5 jumpers from each MULTI
A output jack to each SOURCES -> MULTI A input jack on the two lyriQ™ Four Source, Eight Zone
Distribution Modules.
7. Plug the Category 5 cable from the “B” output of the Triple Source Input into the SOURCE INPUTS ->
MULTI B jack on the lyriQ™ Zone Expander for Unity and run Category 5 jumpers from each MULTI
B output jack to each SOURCES -> MULTI B input jack on the two lyriQ™ Four Source, Eight Zone
Distribution Modules.
8. Run Category 5 jumper cables from the “Integration #1 and #2” jacks on the lyriQ™ Zone Expander
for Unity to the same jacks on each lyriQ™ 4x8 Module. Then run Category 5 jumper cables from the
“Integration Module Audio #1 and #2” jacks on the lyriQ™ Zone Expander for Unity to the “#1 and #2
Audio” jacks on the Integration Module.
9. Terminate each Category 5 cable coming from each room with a Keypad Volume Control using the
T568A wiring standard, then plug each of those cables into the Zone Output jacks on each lyriQ™
Four Source, Eight Zone Distribution Module .
10. If using High Performance Keypads, connect the 16/4 speaker wires from each room with a High
Performance Keypad Volume Control to the High Performance Power Distribution Module.
11. Plug the appropriate number of 24 volt power supply cables into the Power jacks on the lyriQ™ Four
Source, Eight Zone Distribution Modules (depending on Zone and High Performance Keypad usage).
12. Verify system functionality.
