4 Congratulations on your r ecent purchase of a Russound CA-Series multi-room contr oller . This four/six-zone, four-source, multi-room contr oller is the heart of an affordable whole-house audio distribution system. High-current, ster eo, power amplifiers ar e built into the Russound CA allowing simple connections to each speaker in the system.
5 T OOLS NEEDED The following information will indicate some tools and materials necessary for a complete installation: •4 twisted pair communication wire (commonly referr ed to as CAT -5). This wire will be used to connect the keypads in each zone to the controller .
6 SOURCE INPUT CONNECTIONS Y our source inputs ar e located at the top left corner of the back panel. Although the source input names ar e silk screened on the back of the CA, these names ar e for refer- ence only . Any type of source equipment can be connected to any input.
7 ZONE PRE-AMP OUTPUTS (CA4.4PI ONL Y) In applications where mor e power than the 20 watts per channel is desired, connect one or mor e zones of the CA4.4pi to an external amplifier . Using standard RCA connector s, wire fr om the pre-amp outputs of the CA4.
8 WIRING RUNS UP TO 1 00 FEET For wiring runs of up to 1 00 feet in length, we recommend the use of CAT -5 wire. It is inexpensive and color coded for ease of installation. Due to the qualities of CAT -5 wire, when using it for keypad control wir e with the CA-Series, it is rec- ommended to use the following color code for maximum performance.
