Hi-Fi by HAI
Technical Sheet
A Revolutionary Whole Home Audio System
Hi-Fi by HAI allows you
to share your music
throughout your home,
using the sources you already own!
Mom can listen
to relaxing jazz
on the satellite
radio in the
kitchen, while
dad listens to
the big game as
he barbeques
outside, and the
kids jam away
to rock upstairs!
Or set them all
to listen to the same source and
volume.
With Hi-Fi by HAI, you have the
ability to listen to different sources
at the same time at different
volume levels throughout your
home. Hi-Fi comes standard as
a four zone, four source kit, and
is expandable to eight zones, six
sources.
What Makes Hi-Fi Revolutionary?
Traditional Whole Home Audio
Systems require your music source
equipment to be in a central audio
rack and many of them require this
source equipment to be proprietary
brands. Hi-Fi allows you to listen to
the music sources that you already
own or any brand that you wish
to purchase. These sources can be
located thoughout the house.
How Is This Done?
The main controller
of your Hi-Fi is
mounted in a closet
or basement. Remote
Input Modules
(RIMs) are installed
in rooms that have
music sources, such as CD players,
computers, iPods™, satellite radios,
TVs, etc. The sources are plugged
into the RIMs and voila - you can
now enjoy your favorite tunes in
any room!
Controlling
Hi-Fi couldn’t be
easier. There are
no confusing
buttons, just one
knob and a display. Simply mount
a Volume-Source Control (VSC) in
any room that has speakers that
you wish to control. The VSC gives
you the ability to play any music
that’s connected to a RIM - no
matter if the RIM is in the same
room or not!
Using the VSC is Easy
• Turn the knob to adjust
volume.
• Press the knob to change the
source.
• Press and hold the knob to
alter bass, treble, or to turn
the entire system on/off.
The VSC and RIM come in White,
but are also available in Almond,
Black, and Ivory.

Now music can flow freely and be enjoyed in any room, by the
pool, in the backyard, or anywhere that you want it to be.
Use a Remote Control
Hi-Fi by HAI allows
the convenience of
remote control. Your
Hi-Fi comes with a
basic source and
volume remote. You can purchase
a Hi-Fi programmable remote that
is compatible with your source
equipment.
You may also point your original
source equipment remote at any
VSC, regardless of what room
you’re in, to change stations, CD
tracks, pause, play, mute, or crank
up the sound!
Add Additional Zones
For every zone desired after the
initial four, an additional Zone
Amplifier Card must be installed.
Up to four additional Zone
Amplifier Cards may be installed for
the Hi-Fi by HAI to accommodate
up to the full eight zones.
Hi-Fi has an expansion kit that
comes with everything you need
to have Hi-Fi reach its maximum
Programmable
Remote
capacity. If more power is desired,
there are two inputs for additional
power amplifiers.
Easily Upgrade to the
Newest Technology
When you want to upgrade to
the newest source equipment,
you won’t have to cut holes in
the wall or alter an audio rack
to accomodate new wiring and
equipment. Simply unplug your
old source, such as a CD player,
from the RIM, and plug in the latest
and greatest iPod™.
Turn Hi-Fi on or off, mute a
zone, select the source you
would like to listen to, and
adjust the volume.
The palm-sized basic
remote is backlit with
cool blue LED lights.
The 8 buttons at the bottom of the remote are for macros. Macros can be used
to control a home theatre operation, set a favorite channel, or for other multiple
functions you would like to control with one key press.
Basic
Remote
This section provides the same
functionality as a standard
programmable remote control,
such as channel up/down,
volume up/down, pause/play,
etc. This section controls source
equipment such as iPods™,
receivers, or DVD players.

A demo for Hi-Fi is available on HAI’s
Website. Complete with sound, the
interactive demonstration shows the
benefits of Hi-Fi and how it works in
a home!
Connect Hi-Fi to an HAI Home
Control System
Hi-Fi by HAI may be used as a
stand-alone system or with an HAI
home control system. With a home
control system, you may coordinate
your music with activities in the
home.
• Set every room to the iPod™
and preset the volumes for a
party.
• Mute bedroom and outdoor
zones when it’s bedtime.
• Turn the entire system off when
leaving the house.
• Use your telephone to page
throughout the house.
Use any of HAI’s user interfaces to
control Hi-Fi, including OmniTouch
Touchscreens, consoles, keypads,
Snap-Link, Home Control for
Windows® Media Center, and
Web-Link II.
Technical Specifications
Power is 40 watts RMS per zone at
4 ohms. The audio signal from the
source is inputed at the RIM and
travels over Cat 5 to the main unit.
The VSC is also connected to the
main unit using Cat 5.
The Class D digital amplifiers are in
the main unit, (not in the VSC) so
amplifier power is not hindered by
Cat 5 wire. Speakers are connected
to the main unit using standard 16
gauge speaker wire. There are two
variable outputs (Zones 1 and 8)
for connection to external power
amplifiers, and a page/mute input.
Signals from remote controls are
picked up by a sensor in the VSC
and routed to the RIM that the VSC
has selected as its source. Signals
for source equipment are sent out
the “IR Out” port on the RIM to
control the source.

TO SERIAL PORT ON HAI
CONTROLLER
Connect to HAI controller to select
zone and source, and control
volume and power from an
OmniTouch Touchscreen or via
controller program.
Hi-Fi has 2 variable
outputs (Zone 1 and Zone
8) that allow you to deliver
more power to the zone
speakers through optional
power amplifiers.
Use 16 gauge
speaker wire (4
conductor stranded is
suggested for neat
installation)
One 62A07-1 Power Supply is used to
power Zones 1-4. A second 62A07-1
Power Supply is used to power Zones 5-8.
