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 that you may find
particularly beneficial.

Favorites

The UNO

TM

-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.”

8. PARTY MODE - Master (Enable) or Off (Disable)
When in “PARTY MODE” the system is primarily

controlled by a “MASTER” keypad. Party Mode
links all rooms to the same source which is
selected by the Master Keypad room. Any key­pad in the system can become a Master keypad
(if enabled) but only one Master Keypad may
exist at a time in Party Mode. Selecting Master
keypad mode from another keypad will transfer
Master keypad control to that room and release
it from the first. When the source selected in the
Master keypad room is changed then the source
for all rooms changes as well.
Volume level changes at the Master Keypad will
be reflected in all rooms in Party Mode. Non­Master zones in Party Mode can temporarily over­ride Master Keypad volume level adjustments for
their particular room preference. F1 and F2
favorite presets selected from the Master Keypad
will be enabled in all rooms in Party Mode. Master
Keypad will not change Bass, Treble, or Loudness
adjustments for any other rooms other than the
Master Keypad room. Every other keypad will still
operate its respective bass, treble, balance and
loudness adjustments for that room.

INSTALLER

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-warranty product damage.

CAUTION

16

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

• 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 A­KP2 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.

WIRING INSTRUCTIONS

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-S2 keypad, the following connec­tions are used to terminate the CAT-5 wire to the
110 punchdown on the keypad:

CA

T-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-S2
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-S2 keypad, first determine the
location of the IR receiver, then measure the
distance from the intended location to the
UNO-S2 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.

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.

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
air through the keypad chassis to remove stray wire
before the keypad is installed into the junction box.

OS Update Port

The OS Update Port is is used to update the
UNO-S2 Keypad operating system software in
the future. When an update is released, it will be
available online through the Document Center at

www.russound.com.

Look for the Technical
Documents under Multi-source/Multi-room prod­ucts. The programming cable is available from
Russound, Part #2500-120633.

Jumper Setting

The jumper settings on the back of the UNO-S2
Keypad can be set for “Run” and “OS Update.” The
jumper setting must be in the “Run” position before
the keypad is mounted into the junction box, and
must remain set in “Run” to operate the keypad.
The jumper will be set to “OS Update” only while
updating the keypad’s operating systems.

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

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.

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.

The CAV6.6 has six buffered, fixed-level
audio/video source loop outputs. This source loop
configuration allows the CAV6.6 to pass source
signals to another component, such as a home
theater receiver or to another CAV6.6 for sharing

sources in a multiple controller system.
The Source Loop Outputs are located directly to
the right of the Source Audio/Video Inputs. Use
quality RCA signal cables to ensure quality trans­ference of Audio/Video signals.

The speakers are connected to the CAV6.6
using modular snap speaker connectors. Each
of these color coded connectors is designated
for the speaker set of a particular amplified
zone. To avoid confusion, connect one zone
speaker set at a time starting with Zone 1, tak­ing care to keep zone and speaker wire identi­ties straight. Note: An 8 Ohm minimum speaker
is required for each amplified output.

1.Pull the speaker wire conductors apart so
they’re separated for the first two inches from
their ends.

2.Using a wire stripper, remove 1/4 inch of
insulation from each conductor. Twist the
strands in each conductor into tight spirals.

3.Remove the modular four-color connector for
Zone 1. The color code is as follows:

WHITE -- L+ (left channel positive)
GREEN -- L- (left channel negative)
BLACK -- R- (right channel negative)
RED -- R+ (right channel positive)

Lift the black lever for each connection until it
locks open and insert the proper speaker
wire, matching channel and polarity for all
four wires. Snap the lever down. Insert the
modular connector into its designated output
on the back of the CAV6.6.

4.Complete the same steps for the remaining
zones. Label each set of speaker wires with
the zone and location.

The Accessory IR jack on the rear of the CAV6.6
allows control of any source equipment without
that source being selected on the keypad. The
connection for the ACC IR jack is made using an
IR emitter with the 1/8’’ plug. The Russound

845.1 single IR emitter is recommended, or use
an IR connecting block such as the Russound
857 which allows multiple units to be controlled
through the ACC IR Port.

Audio/Video Outputs are located slightly to the
left of center on the rear of the CAV6.6.
Use quality RCA signal cables to ensure a con-

stant quality Audio signal. Video for the zone will
be routed via the Video connection.
Use RG59 Coax Cable or an RG6 Cable with 95%

A-BUS products can easily expand the CAV6.6
audio system by adding A-BUS Ready Sub-zones
to the first four CAV6.6 zones. The A-BUS Ready
Sub-zones are located on the back of the
CAV6.6 at the bottom left corner. The A-BUS
Ready Sub-zones are powered by a 24VDC
power supply such as the A-PS.

Use an RJ-45 CAT-5 T568A configuration patch
cable to connect the A-BUS Ready Sub-zone

port to an RJ-45 wall plate (optional) for a clean
installation. Using the same T568A RJ-45 wiring
configuration, attach CAT-5 from the RJ-45 wall
plate to an A-BUS hub or amplified control mod­ule such as the A-KP2 keypad.

If using an A-BUS hub with the A-BUS Ready Sub­zone, the hub should be located near the
CAV6.6 and wired directly instead of first going

12VDC Home Theater Trigger In

This 12VDC Trigger input is used to control
Power Management of the audio/video sources
possibly being shared with a home theater sys­tem. When the source equipment is off and
12VDC is provided to the trigger, the sources will
be turned on until it is removed. When the last
zone on the CAV6.6 is turned off, 12VDC pres­ence to the trigger input will prevent the sources
from being turned off. The connections for the
trigger are made using a two-conductor cable
with 1/8” male mini-plug. The tip is positive (+)
and the sleeve is negative (-).

12VDC 50mA Trigger Out

The 12VDC 50mA trigger out can be used to
engage any 12VDC trigger device or component
such as the Russound ACT-1 triggered outlet.
The connections for the trigger out are made
using a two-conductor cable with 1/8” male
mini-plug jacks at each end. The tip is positive

12VDC Page Trigger In

When 12VDC is applied to the Page Trigger In,
the system will page audio that is connected to
the Page Audio Input and interrupt the video out­puts with the page video signal. The Page Trigger
In is located in the Page connection area of the
CAV6.6 Controller. The connections for the trig­ger are made using a two-conductor cable with
1/8” male mini-plug jacks. The tip is positive (+)
and sleeve is negative (-). This allows for the con­nection of an external paging or muting device
such as the Russound DIM-1 Doorbell Interface
Module. The CAV6.6 can be programmed to
mute audio and video for one or all zones as pre­ferred when the 12VDC is applied.

12VDC Page Trigger Out

Page Trigger Out 12VDC output is available
under several programmable situations, such as
for triggering an external amplifier, muting
device or other paging component dependent
on the Page Trigger In 12VDC. The connections

for the output are made using a two-conductor
cable with 1/8” male mini-plug jacks at each
end. The tip is positive (+) and sleeve is nega­tive (-). The default setting for the Page Trigger
Out provides 12VDC whenever 12VDC is applied
to the Page Trigger In.

In some cases noise or interference may be
generated by external devices that are connected
to the 12 volt trigger outputs of the CAV. It may
be necessary to use a ferrite bead to reduce
this interference. Two to three turns of the con­necting cable through the bead may be needed.

Page Audio/Video In

The Page Audio/Video Inputs accept line level
audio/video signals. The paging inputs interface
with the page output of a telephone, camera, or
other peripheral device. Connect the audio/video
signals using quality RCA cables.

The R-NET Link In and Link Out is used to con­nect two or more CAV6.6 controllers. The con­nection is made using a CAT-5 patch cable from
the Link Out of the master CAV6.6 and into the
Link In of the next CAV6.6. Along with R-NET
data signals, the R-NET Link In and Link Out jack
passes the six source IR signals. These are only
for source-specific IR remote repeating, not
codes initiated from the controller’s internal IR
library. The CAT-5 patch cable should not
exceed 18 inches in length to avoid potential
cross-talk between the source-specific IR repeat­ing signal lines.

Note: If two or more CAV6.6 controllers will be
connected using the R-NET Link In and Link Out
ports, each controller must have a unique
Controller ID (see Controller Setup - Flow
Chart on page 65) prior to being connected
through the R-NET ports. The Controller ID
assignment must be performed during the
Controller Setup section of the Installation menu.

The R-NET Link In and Link Out is also used to
connect the CAV6.6 to other Russound products
with R-NET.

Before proceeding to the system programming section, it’s important to conduct an initial test to
determine that the hardware components are working properly.

1. Connect the speaker wires from Zone #1 to the CAV6.6 Zone #1 speaker output connectors.

2. Connect an UNO-S2 keypad to Keypad Port #1 on the rear of the CAV6.6.

3. Connect a source to the Source #1 Input on the CAV6.6 using RCA A/V patch cables.

4. Plug a supplied 845.1 IR emitter into the Source #1 IR Output Jack and adhere the emitter end

to the source equipment’s IR window.

5. Plug in the main power cords for the CAV6.6 and the source.

6. Turn on the main power switch on the CAV6.6 and the source.

7. Manually command the source to provide audio or use the source remote control.

8. Press the power button on the UNO-S2 keypad and select Source #1.

Congratulations – you should now hear the source through the speakers in Zone #1. Now that you
have confirmed the hardware operation, you can proceed to System Programming to set up keypad
source control.

If there is no sound, follow these diagnostic steps:

1. Check the source to see that it is operating properly.

2. Check the RCA A/V cable connections from the source to the Source #1 Input on the CAV6.6.

3. Check the speaker connections and verify that they are correct and are connected to the

Zone #1 speaker outputs.

4. Check to see that the keypad is connected to the Zone #1 Keypad Port and verify the CAT-5 is
properly terminated at both ends.

If none of these steps produce successful results, call Russound Tech Support for further assistance.

INSTALLER

INITIAL INSTALL TEST

42

This manual includes items that are designed to assist in the programming process.

Sample Configurations

A series of sample configurations are provided (pages 72-83) to showcase a variety of system
designs and component options.

Forms

Three blank reproducible forms (pages 44-46) are included as planning tools when determining
sources, settings and zone preferences. The Source and Zone Information forms and the Macro
Editor form should be completed before programming and referred to during the installation menu
process. This speeds up programming time and reduces missed or incorrect entries. These forms
also serve as system reference documents if future troubleshooting is needed.

IR Device Codes

This list of command type IR device codes (pages 84-86) reflects the built-in IR codes in the CAV6.6
library. During programming, these codes will be entered for each source at the “Device Code”
prompt. If a code is not listed for a source, the Learn IR procedure is available to learn in and central­ly store IR codes.

Source Names

A list of assignable Source Names (page 71) is provided for advance selection and source form com­pletion before programming.

Flow Charts

Installation Menu flow charts (pages 59-69) provide a graphical representation of the programming
process.

Installation Menu

The Installation Menu (pages 47-58) provides the step-by-step complete programming procedure for
the keypad and the controller.

Although you can begin programming at any point within the Installation Menu, the following sequence
is recommended for initial installations, as it progresses from the most basic requirements to the
more advanced features.

1. Controller Setup (CTRLR SETUP) (page 54)

This procedure sets the controller ID number within the system. This number must be manually set
when multiple CAV6.6’s are linked through R-NET within one system. This procedure is not necessary
for systems with only one CAV6.6.

2. Number of Sources (# of Sources/SOURCE SETUP) (page 53)

This procedure sets the number of sources used in the system. This prevents the user from selecting
a source input that is not used.

3. Basic Setup (SOURCE SETUP) (page 48)

This procedure is mandatory to set up each source for keypad source control and is the cornerstone
of the programming process.

INSTALLER

SYSTEM PROGRAMMING OVERVIEW

4. Learn IR (page 57)

This procedure is used when the source-specific IR code is not found in the built-in IR code library.
This allows IR commands to be learned into the system and centrally stored.

5. Macro Editor (page 57)

This procedure compiles multiple IR codes to be initiated by a single button press. One macro can
have up to 10 commands, including other macros, and up to 132 macros can be entered.

6. Source Volume Trim (SOURCE SETUP) (page 51)

This procedure matches audio output signals for all sources for seamless switching.

7. Numeric IR (SOURCE SETUP) (page 51)

This procedure sets up control of a source that supports direct numeric commands.

8. Key Configuration (SOURCE SETUP) (page 49)

This procedure customizes individual key functions on a per-zone basis for source control.

9. Power Management (page 55)

This function incorporates IR macro commands to automatically control the power state of the sources
when the system is in use or when a home theater is sharing sources. This advanced feature uses audio
signal monitoring to confirm source power, which provides the user with worry-free operation.

10. Zone Volume Trim (ZONE SETUP) (page 54)

This procedure limits the maximum volume allowed in a zone, regardless of keypad volume adjust­ment.

11. System On Enable (SYSON ENABLE/ZONE SETUP) (page 54)

This feature allows a zone to join or opt out of an “all on” command.

12. Party Enable (ZONE SETUP) (page 54)

This feature allows a zone to join or opt out of Party Mode participation.

13. Master Enable (ZONE SETUP) (page 54)

This feature allows a zone the option of becoming a Master keypad in Party Mode.

14. Page Enable (ZONE SETUP) (page 54)

This feature allows a zone to hear or to block paging.

15. Page Volume (ZONE SETUP) (page 54)

This feature allows adjustment of the paging volume in a zone.

POWER MANAGEMENT (p)

The CAV6.6 is capable of managing the power state of the connected source equipment. The power
management is configured on a source-by-source basis.

All sources that have power management enabled are initialized by a “POWER ON” command or
macro which must cause the source to produce an audio signal. Power management is initialized
when the first keypad is turned on or when the home theater trigger input has 12VDC present. The
12VDC trigger output is turned on when the first zone is turned on.

All sources that have power management enabled are turned off by the “POWER OFF” command after
all zones have been turned off, with a timeout of five minutes.The 12VDC trigger output is turned off
one minute after that. This timeout is postponed for as long as the home theater trigger input has
12VDC present. See Installation Menu on Page 48 and Power Management - Flow Chart on

SOURCE NAMES

72

The configuration shows how the CAV6.6 distrib­utes audio/video throughout the house using six
UNO System Keypads and six audio/video
source components.

Source Components

The configuration allows for any zone to select
any one of the six source inputs.

Keypads

The configuration uses a single UNO-S2 Keypad
per zone. Each keypad is connected to the
CAV6.6’s Keypad Port using the RJ-45 T568A
wiring configuration. Each keypad port number
corresponds with the zone number. This gives
complete control of the zone to one keypad.

The UNO-S2 Keypad can control the source
equipment, volume for the zone, source selection,
tone control, mute, and other functions.
Programmable functions are also possible. The
IR receiver on the keypad also allows the
UNO-LRC1 and other remotes to control not only
the zone but also the source equipment.

IR Remote control through Keypad

To control the source components via IR from
the UNO-S2 Keypad, an IR emitter must be con­nected from the source component to the
CAV6.6. The emitter is shown connected from
the IR receiver on the source component to the
source component’s IR emitter output port on
the rear on the CAV6.6. This type of configura­tion allows independent control over more than
one identical source component. The IR from the
remote will be routed to the selected source.
When using the UNO-LRC1 remote, simply select
“UNO” at the top of the remote, select source
1-6 and operate the source.

Speakers

Connect the speakers to the amplified CAV6.6
zones 1 through 6 using a “Home Run” from the
individual amplified speaker outputs to the
speakers. Use the detachable modular snap
speaker connectors which are color coded and
labeled for easy installation. For most installations,
16 gauge 4-conductor wire is recommended.

SAMPLE SYSTEM CONFIGURATION 1

Six Zones and Six Sources

74

This configuration uses an additional CAV6.6 to
add six additional amplified zones, controlled
through UNO-S2 Keypads. The source compo­nents are connected to both CAV6.6s with RCA
cables using the source in/loop out to intercon­nect the audio/video signals.

R-NET Link In and Link Out

Multiple CAV6.6s can be integrated as the two
shown in this configuration. An RJ-45 CAT-5
patch cable allows for communication between
the two CAV6.6s. System commands such as
paging, ALL OFF, ALL ON, IR control, and PC
control are transferred from one CAV6.6 to
another through the Link In and Link Out Ports
using the patch cable.

Source Components

The same six audio/video source components
are used for both CAV6.6s. The source com­ponents are connected to the Source
Audio/Video Input Connections on the first
CAV6.6 while the Audio/Video Source Output
Connections from the first CAV6.6 are con­nected to the Source Audio/Video Input
Connections on the second CAV6.6.

Keypads

This configuration uses a single UNO-S2 Keypad
per zone on each of the CAV6.6s. Each keypad
is connected to the UNO System Keypad Port
using the CAT-5 T568A RJ-45 wiring configura­tion. This gives complete control of each of the
12 UNO System Controlled Zones to the corre­sponding UNO-S2 Keypad.

Individual zone settings such as volume, source
selection, on/off, tone control and amplification
are controlled through the UNO System Keypad.
IR controls for zone and source equipment are
controlled through the UNO-S2 Keypad.

This configuration uses a SA-ZX3 Keypad
Splitter hub to connect up to three UNO-S2 key­pads to one CAV6.6 UNO keypad port. For clean
installations, use RJ-45 CAT-5 patch cables with
the T568A configuration.

To connect from the SA-ZX3 to an RJ-45 wall
plate (optional), use the patch cables to wire for

the wall plate to the keypad. Connect the con­troller keypad port using the patch cable.

Mount the SA-ZX3 Kepad Splitter hub near the
controller using screws or hook and loop fasten­er. The SA-ZX3 requires a 12VDC 1A power sup­ply, such as the Russound 1201A Power Supply.

SAMPLE SYSTEM CONFIGURATION 3

Zone Expansion

78

Adding A-BUS allows sub-zoning of the audio dis­tribution of the CAV6.6 system. This configura­tion demonstrates sub-zoning of the first zone
through the use of an A-BUS expansion hub.
Only the first four (1-4) CAV6.6 zones can be
expanded using the same numbered (1-4) A-BUS
Ready Sub-Zone ports.

Powering the A-BUS Ready Sub-Zones

The four A-BUS Ready Sub-Zone ports must be
powered by a Russound A-PS 24VDC 2.5A
power supply, which is plugged into the 24VDC

2.5A POWER INPUT jack on the rear of the

CAV6.6. This is only required when amplified
control modules are used without an A-BUS hub.

A-BUS Hub

The A-BUS Hub is used with A-BUS amplified
control modules to create additional audio sub­zones and listening options. Using an A-H2 Hub
connected to a CAV6.6 A-BUS Ready Sub-Zone
port provides two additional A-BUS Sub-Zones.
The A-H2 requires a 24VDC 2.5A Power Supply
such as the Russound A-PS power supply. Mount
the A-H2 near the CAV6.6 and source equipment
using screws or hook and loop fastener.

CAT-5 Connections

The A-H2 Hub connects to the CAV6.6 A-BUS
Ready Sub-Zone Port using RJ-45 CAT-5 cables.
The cable connects from the CAV6.6 Sub-Zone
port to the Expansion Input port on the Hub,
then from the Hub keypad output to the RJ-45
wall plate.

Keypad Connections

The A-BUS A-KP2 amplified keypad and the A-VC
amplified volume control connect to the Hub via
the wall plate. Use the CAT-5 T568A RJ-45
wiring configuration for these connections.

Multi-Source Mode Switch

The Multi-Source Mode switch is located on the
side of the A-KP2 keypad. It can be set to multi
or single source. When the switch is set to
"multi," it allows the selection of sources 1
through 4 on the CAV6.6. If "single" is selected,
the A-KP2 will not allow source selection from
the keypad, but will allow selections by IR
remote.

Speakers

The speakers for the A-BUS Ready Sub-Zone are
connected to the individual A-BUS amplified con­trol modules. The speaker wire is connected to
the keypad using the screw terminal on the rear
of the keypad.

Additional amplification can be added to the CAV6.6
when more power or more speakers are desired.

This configuration adds an external amplifier to
the CAV6.6. The Zone Audio (To Amp) Outputs
are variably controlled by the associated UNO­S2 keypad and can be connected to an external
amplifier. The figure shows an amplifier used in
this manner. The configuration has five zones
connected to an additional amplifier with one
zone outputting to speakers.

Source Components

In this configuration, three of a possible six
audio/video source input components are used.
The source components are connected to the
source Audio/Video Input Connections at the
first three inputs using quality RCA cables.

Zone Audio (To Amp) & V ideo Outputs

In this option the Zone Audio (To Amp) Outputs for

zones 2 through 6 have the outputs connected to
the inputs of an external amplifier. The speakers
for these zones are run to the output of the exter­nal amplifier for each of these zones.

An amplified subwoofer is attached to the Zone
Audio Output for zone 1 while its amplified
CAV6.6 output speaker connection is also still
intact. This allows the user to increase the out­put of the bass response while keeping the
stereo output from the CAV6.6.

Keypads

The configuration uses a single UNO-S2 Keypad
per zone on the CAV6.6. Each keypad is con­nected to the UNO System Keypad Port using
the CAT-5 T568A RJ-45 wiring configuration.
This gives complete control of each of the 6
UNO System Controlled Zones to the correspon­ding UNO-S2 Keypad.

SAMPLE SYSTEM CONFIGURATION 5

Additional Amplification

82

Home Theater systems can share sources with
a CAV6.6 Controller to provide additional listen­ing and viewing options. In this configuration,
the Home Theater Receiver provides a 12VDC
signal to the CAV6.6 at the Home Theater
12VDC In Port. The 12VDC signal tells the con­troller to leave any shared home theater source
equipment powered when all CAV6.6 zones are
off, temporarily bypassing the source power
management feature. The 12VDC connected to
the CAV6.6’s Home Theater trigger allows the
source equipment to be left on.

Source Components

In this configuration, three audio source compo­nents are used of a possible six audio/video
source inputs. The source components are con­nected using quality RCA cables to the first
three inputs.

Source Loop Outputs

The Source Loop Outputs are connected to the
CAV6.6 and to the Home Theater Receiver
source inputs using RCA cables. This enables
the source equipment to be shared between the
two components.

Keypads

Three UNO-S2 Keypads are connected to the
CAV6.6 Controller using the CAT-5 T568A RJ-45
wiring configuration. This gives complete control
of each of the three zones to the corresponding
UNO-S2 Keypad.

Front Left and Right Speakers

Zone 1 uses the same pair of speakers as the
Home Theater front main left and right speak­ers. The amplified output from zone 1 connects
to the input on the back of the SRM-2.1 speaker
relay module. The Home Theater left and right
front main speaker outputs are connected to the
input on the front of the SRM-2.1. Zone 1 12V
Trigger output is connected to the 12V +/- on
the back of the SRM-2.1. When zone 1 is pow­ered on, the SRM-2.1 is triggered allowing audio
from zone 1 of the CAV6.6 to power the speak­ers. When the UNO System Keypad for zone 1
is shut off, 12VDC is no longer provided to the
SRM-2.1, and the output of the SRM-2.1 is
switched to the Home Theater front left and
right amplified speaker output.
