A0301 and A0313 can be used as primary system inputs feeding the main
hub or as local input modules in each room to override the primary audio
source. The A0301 is a generic input module which provides a standard
L/R RCA input and the A0313 is an iPod docking station.

These local input modules should be installed in the CAT5 line between
the P-2014 and the A0125. Multiple input modules can be installed in one
CAT5 run. If audio is present at more than one input module the unit
closest to A0125 will take priority and be played through the speakers.

In this configuration, either the satellite
radio tuner or the A0313 connected to the
System Input of the P-2014 can act as the
main system input. If audio is present from
both sources, then the Priority switch will
determine which source is heard. In this
example the switch is set to give the A0313
priority.

Connections:

Trouble?

1) Be sure you have connected the CAT5 cable correctly. Note that the
stripe/solid pattern should match the labels on the product. Miss-wiring
can cause distorted sound or prevent the system from working at all!

2) Be sure you have connected the speakers in phase. Follow the label
on the product. Out of phase speakers can rob the system of its bass,
especially when driving dual-voice-coil speakers.

Connection Tips and Troubleshooting

Input/Output ... To simplify installation, the

A0313 has both 110 and RJ-45 inputs and
outputs. Only one of the inputs and one of the
outputs should be used at a time.

* When used on runs longer than 150’, upgrading the hub power

supply to 24VDC is recommended. All components in this system are
compatible with 24VDC power.

Stripping and Connecting CAT5 Wire

Specifications: (typical @25º C)
Operating Voltage : *18VDC
Cable requirements: CAT5 or better
Operating Temperature: -10ºC to +50ºC

Specifications subject to change without notice.

Cat5

1. Place the CAT5 between the blade and the first notch of the J-110 tool.

CAT5 cable should be stripped with a proper stripping tool, such as Channel
Vision’s J-110 tool.

3. Inspect the inner wires for damage.
If any wires are cut start over at step 1.

Check for damage

4. Use any standard 110 punch-down tool to properly seat all wires.

Note: Do NOT use a screwdriver or any other tool that is not specifically
designed for terminating UTP cable. Using improper tools will damage
the connector!

Support Clips

3. Select the appropriate support clip for your iPod.
Note: there are 3 support clips provided to
accommodate standard iPods, the iPod mini, and
the iPod nano.

1. Mount the A0313 in a low

voltage ring or junction box.

2. Install the trim ring.
