25Setting up the KeypadChapter 3Setting up theKeypadThis chapter provides you withinformation regarding installation,hookup and settings for the optionalKeypad.Installing the KeypadA Keypad must be installed in a junction box (optional).Follow the procedures below to mount a Keypadmounting bracket and a Keypad on the wall.Installing the Keypad1Place the Keypad mounting bracket over a junctionbox which has already been installed on the wallwith the mounting lips facing out.2Attach the Keypad mounting bracket to thejunction box with the supplied screws at the fourpoints as shown below.Proceed to the steps in “Zone related cables hookups”on page 17 before mounting the Keypad.NoteThe Keypad mounting bracket may not fit easily over somejunction boxes. In this case, loosen the screws and move theKeypad mounting bracket left to right to center on thejunction box.
Setting up the Keypad263Insert the top of the Keypad onto the mountingbracket first, in the direction of the arrow 1 untilit clicks, then push the bottom of the Keypad ontothe bracket in the direction of the arrow 2.4Fix and tighten the Keypad mounting screws asshown below.5When you have finished mounting the Keypad,check that it operates properly.Removing the Keypad1Remove the screws that hold the Keypad and theKeypad mounting bracket.2Press and hold the edge of the upper-side of theKeypad tightly. Pull the lower part of the Keypadaway from the Keypad mounting bracket first,then pull the upper part of the Keypad outslightly, lifting it in the direction of the arrow, asshown below.NoteYou may need some extra effort to remove the Keypad fromthe wall since there are various kinds of junction boxes, andthe installation environment of the Keypad differs.Installing the Keypad
Setting up the Keypad27You must install at least one Keypad and a pair ofspeakers in each zone. In the zones where both audio andvideo will be installed, you must install at least one TVmonitor.Requirements for these hookups are as follows.•A CAT5 cable has been installed for each zone's Keypad.•Two pairs of 12 to 18 AWG speaker cords for each pair ofspeakers.•An RCA video cable for a TV monitor from each zone tothe Main Unit location.TV monitor hookupHook up the video input of the TV monitor in each zoneand the VIDEO OUT of each ZONE connection jack of theMain Unit.Use an RCA video cable.Speakers hookup1Hook up the speaker cords from the SPEAKERS jackof each ZONE connection jack of the Main Unit tothe FROM AMPLIFIER jack of the Keypad in eachzone.2Hook up the speaker cords from the TO SPEAKERSjack of the Keypad to the speaker terminals in eachzone.Notes• Use speakers which have a combined impedance ofbetween 4 and 16 Ohms loaded.• Twist the stripped ends of the speaker cords about2/3 inch (10 mm). Be sure to match the speaker cordto the appropriate terminal on the components: + to+ and – to –. If the cords are reversed, the sound willbe distorted and will lack bass.• 14 AWG speaker cords are recommended forspeaker runs up to 150 feet (45 m). The 4-terminalconnectors accept speaker cords sizes up to 12 AWG,maximum.•If you use speakers with a low maximum inputrating, adjust the volume carefully to avoidexcessive output on the speakers.Hooking up in Each ZoneCAT5 cable hookup1Set the MODE switch to MAIN on the rear panel ofthe Keypad.2Hook up the CAT5 cable from the KEYPAD jack ofeach ZONE connection jack of the Main Unit to theIN jack of the Keypad in each zone.To install two Keypads in the same zoneYou can install two Keypads in a single room.1Set the MODE switch to SUB on the rear panel ofthe subsidiary Keypad.2Hook up the CAT5 cable from the OUT jack of theKeypad for which the MODE switch is set to MAIN,to the IN jack of the subsidiary Keypad.NoteNote that the length of CAT5 cables for each connection islimited. See the figure below for the maximun length of CAT5cables.IR emitter hookupWhen you want to use the IR Remote Control for theKeypad without pointing at the IR sensor of the Keypad,plug an IR emitter (optional) into the IR IN jack of theKeypad.You can operate the IR Remote Control for the Keypadpointing at the IR sensor of the IR emitter.Main Unit Keypad275 feet max.Main Unit Keypad Keypad150 feet max. 50 feet max.
Setting up the Keypad28Customizing the KeypadSetting bass and trebleYou can adjust bass and treble to optimize the acousticconditions in each zone.1Turn off the power.2Press and hold MUTING and LOCK simultaneously,and then press POWER.The LCD panel changes to the Bass and Treble setupmode.3Press the corresponding SELECTION button toadjust the bass and the treble.4Turn off the power when you have finished.The settings are confirmed when the power is turnedoff.Notes•All buttons, other than VOLUME +, VOLUME –, MUTINGand POWER, are disabled while you are making settings.•You can adjust Bass and Treble between ± 14 dB and 2 dB.Setting volume limitsYou can customize the volume limits to protect speakersfrom being over driven.1Turn off the power.2Press SOURCE and PAGE simultaneously, and thenpress POWER.The LCD touch panel changes to the Volumelimitation mode.3Press the corresponding SELECTION button toadjust the maximum volume.4Turn off the power when you have finished.The settings are confirmed when the power is turnedoff.Notes•All buttons, other than VOLUME +, VOLUME –, MUTING,and POWER, are disabled while you are making settings.•You can adjust the volume limits between level 64 and level74.Adjusting LCD contrast1Turn off the power.2Press and hold PLAY and the SELECT button in theleft-upper simultaneously, and then press POWER.The display window enters the contrast setting mode.3Press the corresponding SELECTION buttons toadjust the LCD Contrast Value.4Turn off the power when you have finished.The settings are confirmed when the power is turnedoff.Notes•All buttons other than POWER are disabled while settingsare being made.•You can adjust the LCD contrast between level 01 and level32.
Setting up the Keypad29It is recommended that you test all the components beforeyou finish with the installation of the entire system ineach zone so as not to encounter any problems after theinstallation is completed. Check to see if the Main Unit,the installed components, and the Keypad operateproperly by testing each operation.1Check the following connections.- All the Keypads are connected to the Main Unit via CAT5cables.- An audio or a video component is connected betweenAUDIO IN Left/Right and VIDEO IN of each SOURCEconnection jack.- A display (output component) is connected to VIDEO OUTat each ZONE connection jack.- Speakers are connected to SPEAKERS at each ZONEconnection jack.- An IR emitter is connected to IR OUT of each SOURCEconnection jack, and is placed near the IR sensor of thesource component.- AC power cords for the Main Unit and the othercomponents are plugged in.2Turn on the Main Unit.3Select ZONE 1 by pressing the ZONE button on thefront panel of the Main Unit.Testing the Components4Select SOURCE 1 by pressing the SELECT SOURCEbutton on the front panel of the Main Unit.5Turn on the Keypad in zone 1.6Select SOURCE 1 by pressing the SELECT button onthe Keypad. Then, check the following.- Power controlPress POWER to turn the Keypad on or off.- Volume adjustmentPress VOLUME +/– to adjust the volume.- MutingPress MUTING to mute the speaker output.- Playback operationPress the Play, Stop, Pause, and AMS (./>) buttonson the Keypad to confirm that the source componentoperates properly.- Remote control operationCheck that the remote control of the SOURCE 1 componentworks by pressing any command button while pointingthe Remote Control toward the IR sensor of the Keypad.Then check that the SOURCE 1 component operatesproperly using the remote control.7Perform the test in each zone from zone 1 throughzone 6 by repeating Steps 3 to 6.LVIDEO INIR OUTVIDEO OUTAUDIO INKEYPADFIXEDPRE OUTLRRLVIDEO OUTSPEAKERS (CLASS II WIRING)AUDIO OUTRSOURCE 1ANTENNAZONE 1LVIDEO INIR OUTVIDEO OUTAUDIO IN AUDIO OUTRSOURCE 2LVIDEO INIR OUTVIDEO OUTAUDIO IN AUDIO OUTRSOURCE 3LVIDEO INIR OUTVIDEO OUTAUDIO IN AUDIO OUTRSOURCE 4LVIDEO INIR OUTVIDEO OUTAUDIO IN AUDIO OUTRSOURCE 5LVIDEO INIR OUTVIDEO OUTAUDIO IN AUDIO OUTRSOURCE 6LVIDEO INIR OUT IR OUTCOMMONVIDEO OUTAUDIO IN AUDIO OUTRSOURCE 7L123VIDEO INIR OUTVIDEO OUTAUDIO IN AUDIO OUTRSOURCE 8RS232C~AC INSTRCONTROLA1 II12V TRIGGERKEYPADFIXEDPRE OUTLRRLVIDEO OUTSPEAKERS (CLASS II WIRING)ZONE 2KEYPADFIXEDPRE OUTLRRLVIDEO OUTSPEAKERS (CLASS II WIRING)ZONE 3KEYPADFIXEDPRE OUTLRRLVIDEO OUTSPEAKERS (CLASS II WIRING)ZONE 4KEYPADVAR IABL EPRE OUT VARIABLEPRE OUTLRRLVIDEO OUTSPEAKERS (CLASS II WIRING)ZONE 5KEYPADLRRLVIDEO OUTSPEAKERS (CLASS II WIRING)ZONE 6456DVPAUXSPEAKERS IMPEDANCEUSE 4-16IR INOUTRTO SPEAKERSLDC ININRFROM AMPLIFIERMODESUBLMAINDVD playerKeypadSP TV SP
