PRODUCT INTRODUCTION

Thank you for choosing the Russound® CAV6.6-S2 System to enhance your home with distributed audio and video. This system’s state-of-the-art features and components blend seamlessly with your unique lifestyle and preferences.

Besides distributing and controlling six A/V sources to six rooms (zones), your CAV6.6-S2 System offers many features that increase your enjoyment of living. Here are several features that you may find particularly beneficial.

Favorites

The UNOTM-S2 keypad’s F1 and F2 buttons are preset favorites. These easy-to-set buttons make it possible to hear your favorite radio station or watch your favorite satellite channel at just the right volume in your room with just a button push. Want something new? Just re-save the Favorite with a new choice.

Do Not Disturb

The Do Not Disturb mode prevents unwanted interruptions in your room and stops changes to your selected A/V source. You may have a nursery or study that you want to keep quiet, or maybe you are watching a DVD and don’t want it interrupted. Simply set the Do Not Disturb mode to “on” using the User Menu, and be free from paging, Party Mode interaction and system-wide functions like “All On” or “All Off.”

Party Mode

Ready to set the mood? In Party Mode, you just pick the source and the sound settings and hear the music throughout all the rooms. The Master keypad simultaneously controls all the keypads in all the rooms to effortlessly select or control the components. A great benefit of the Party Mode feature is the ability to transfer the Master keypad mode to any keypad in the system. If the living room is the center of the party, use that room’s keypad as Master. If the party moves to the sunroom and porch, that room’s keypad can be set to Master instead.

Front (Aux) A/V In

This handy feature lets you easily hook up an additional temporary audio/video source through the front of the controller. This way, your teenager can set up a game console when his friends come over, and easily take it down without having to leave the games set up in the living room. Or your family can watch the video camera playback of the holiday gathering while everyone is still there.

Here at Russound we are proud to continue providing innovative and intuitive A/V product solutions to the world. When you link the industry-leading CAV6.6-S2 system with Russound’s commitment to its products and customers, you have truly made – “the right connection.”

Setup Menu Flow Charts

Presents the programming menus in a graphical flow chart format.

Do not connect the controller's main power feed until all other connections have been made and verified. Live connection or removal of the keypad wiring or other wiring when the system is powered can cause communication problems in the network. Double-check terminations during each phase of the installation to prevent accidental damage. Incorrect wiring is the number one cause for non-war- ranty product damage.

INSTALLER

GETTING STARTED

Unpacking the System Components

•Keep the original carton and packing materials for future shipment or storage.

•Check for any visible signs of damage. If you encounter any concealed damage, consult your Russound dealer before proceeding to install the unit.

•Retain the sales receipt as it establishes the duration of the limited warranty and provides information for insurance purposes.

CAV6.6-S2 System Components:

•1 (one) CAV6.6 Controller/Amplifier

•6 (six) UNO-S2 System Control Keypads

•1 (one) UNO-LRC1 Learning/Preprogrammed Remote Control

•6 (six) 845.1 Micro Emitters

Tools needed for installation:

•Drill with a 1/2” x 6” drill bit

•Keyhole saw

•Flat head screwdriver (medium size)

•Phillips Screwdriver (cordless recommended)

•110 punchdown tool (included)

•Modular RJ-45 crimper and connectors

•Pair of diagonal cutters or wire strippers

•Stud finder

•Steel wire fish tape

•Cable staples

•PLASTIC double-gang electrical work boxes

System Installation Considerations

There are several factors to consider before installing the Russound CAV6.6-S2 system:

•What are the intended listening zones, and what zones require audio and video distribution or audio only?

•Are A-BUS® sub-zones needed? A-BUS subzones are only available for zones 1 - 4. The A- KP2 amplified keypad can provide direct source selection for only the first four sources when in ‘Multi’ source mode.

•What system options and accessories might be required for features such as paging, local sources, etc.?

•From where in each zone will the user prefer to control the system? Where will the keypads be located? Where will the speakers be located?

•Where will the source equipment be located? The CAV6.6 must have proper ventilation above and below for air circulation and heat dissipation. A rack-mount location may require fans and vents.

Connection Tips

•It is recommended that the CAV6.6 and the source equipment be plugged into a dedicated 20-amp circuit with an isolated ground. A power line conditioner can reduce interference problems caused by noise found in some electrical systems.

•Disconnect all live power cords before making connections to the controller.

•Verify that all connections and polarity are correct.

•Keep all power cords away from all signal cables to prevent humming from induced noise.

•Choose reliable signal cables/patch cords.

•Label all wires with room location at both ends of the wire.

RJ-45 Connections

The CAT-5 T568A wiring standard shown on the right is used for the RJ-45 terminations.

Keypad Wiring

For the UNO keypad, the following connections are used to terminate the CAT-5 wire to the 110 punchdown on the keypad:

CAT-5 WIRE COLOR

TYPE

Brown . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . +12V

Brown/White . . . . . . . . . . . . . . +12V

Green . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Ground

Green/White . . . . . . . . . . . . Status In

Orange . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Ground

Orange/White . . . . . . . . . . . . . IR Out

Blue . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . COM A

Blue/White . . . . . . . . . . . . . . COM B

•To determine the amount of CAT-5 wire required for the system installation, first decide how many keypads will be used, then determine the distance between each intended keypad location to the intended CAV6.6 location. The maximum recommended wire run length is 250 feet for each UNO Keypad.

•Make sure that the entire wire path between keypads and CAV6.6 is clear and not obstructed by a floor ceiling joist, or masonry wall which can’t be drilled through.

•Confirm ahead of time that you can drill an outlet hole easily and in an unobtrusive spot to connect wires with the CAV6.6.

•Label wires with keypad and room location. This simplifies CAV6.6 hook-up once the keypads and speakers are installed.

•If you plan to use an additional IR receiver with an UNO keypad, first determine the location of the IR receiver, then measure the distance from the intended location to the UNO keypad location. Incorporating optional IR receivers will require additional wire. Consult the selected IR receiver model’s manual for the specific wire needs.

Speaker Wiring

•Standard 16-gauge 4-conductor stranded speaker wire can be run up to to 125 feet; 14-gauge wire can be run up to 250 feet.

•When running wire, pay particular attention to the following areas:

•Avoid locations concealing pipes, heating ducts and AC wiring in the general vicinity.

•Avoid running wires close to house electrical wiring for any distance. If you have to run them parallel, make sure to space the wires at least two feet from the AC line.

UNO-S2 KEYPAD-INSTALLATION

Keypad Location

The best infrared remote performance is achieved with the keypad away from any direct sunlight, plasma TV, and low voltage lighting controls. Also consider convenience when choosing a location.

Choose a place that is easily seen from the position where a person is most likely to be located.

Check whether or not you can route the wire to the location you have chosen.

Keypad Installation

To install a double-gang keypad, you will need to use a UL/CSA approved plastic double-gang electrical box (Do not use metal boxes).

Route CAT-5 wire to the junction box from the CAV6.6.

Use the supplied 110 punchdown tool to connect each wire to its corresponding color labeled on the punchdown terminal.

Ensure jumper settings on keypads are in the run positions.

Mount the keypad in the electrical box and attach the cover plate. Repeat the steps until all keypads are installed.

UNO-S2 Keypad Connections

CAT-5 Connection

The UNO-S2 Keypad uses a 110-punchdown terminal to provide a simple installation and strong connection for CAT-5 cable’s eight conductors. Punchdown terminals require the use of a punchdown tool which has been provided with the keypad kit. Attach the CAT-5 cable to the 110-punchdown terminal on the UNO-S2 Keypad as shown, matching the conductor colors to the connection color guide. The keypad will not operate properly if the terminations deviate from the required connection order.

Caution:

Take care when using an impact 110 punchdown tool, as this may overspread the contact points. Use of the impact tool may propel stray bits of wire and jacket into the keypad’s chassis and possibly cause a short in the circuitry. Gently shake or blow

UNO System Keypad Port Connection

The UNO System Keypad Ports are located on the back of the CAV6.6 in the top left corner. Connections made at the UNO Keypad Ports are made using CAT-5 T568A RJ-45 wire configuration. CAT-5 is color-coded for ease of installation. For a clean installation when wiring from an UNO System Keypad Port use an RJ-45 CAT-5 patch cable to connect from the keypad port to an RJ-45 Wall Plate (optional). Using the same CAT-5 T568A RJ-45 wiring configuration, use

MAKING CONNECTIONS

CAT-5 from the RJ-45 Wall Plate to the keypad. If using more than one keypad on a zone, connect a SA-ZX3 UNO System Keypad Splitter (optional) directly to the UNO System Keypad Port instead of going through the wall plate. Always use the CAT-5 T568A RJ-45 wire configuration when wiring any of the UNO System Keypad Ports.

MAKING CONNECTIONS

Source Audio/Video Input Connections

The CAV6.6 supports up to six audio/video sources. The Source Inputs are located at the back panel. Connect each source output using quality RCA signal cables. Connect the Video, and the Left and Right Audio outputs from each source to the corresponding inputs on the CAV6.6 controller. Label each cable with the name of the selected source and the Source Audio/Video input number located on the CAV6.6.

Source IR Connections

Each source component has a designated IR port on the back of the CAV6.6. This IR port is directly below the Source Audio/Video Input/Output Connections.

1. Using an IR emitter (the Russound 845.1 is recommended) attach the end of the emitter with the 1/8” plug to the IR emitter port below the source input.

2.Remove the adhesive back at the other end of the emitter and attach the emitter over the source component’s IR window.

3.In order to control this source component with IR, the source must be selected at the keypad receiving the command.
