Overview
The Qt Room Control (QtRC) can be used to adjust the sound masking level for an individual room or a space with 2-8 emitters. This wall mounted volume control unit is
designed to work with any of the Cambridge Sound Manage­ment sound masking systems. It installs easily in new or existing construction and fits in most standard electrical boxes, including open back, low voltage brackets.
Since the QtRC is designed for a room of up to 8 emitters, a separate zone should be used in larger areas. The QtRC controlled room can be its own run from the controller or part of a run to other areas. Several system layout options are shown on the following pages and, with each layout, a suggested usage model is described.
When using the QtRC, the controller needs to supply enough power over the cable run for the emitters and the QtRC(s). From the control modules, a single cable run can support 60 emitters; however, an added QtRC reduces the number of emitters that can be supported, because each QtRC "counts" as an emitter in the total for the run. The cable run can support up to a combination of 60 emitters and QtRCs. For example, if there are 30 rooms with 2 emitters in each room, or a total of 60 devices (2 x 30 emitters), then a single run of cable could be used. However, if a QtRC is also used in each room, changing the total to 90 devices (2 x 30 emitters + 30 QtRCs), then 2 cable runs would be required.
