INTRODUCTION

The SRM-2.1 is an accessory to the CA-LCD Keypad and CP4.6 Audio
Distribution System. The SRM-2.1 allows for automatic selection of the local
(in-room) audio source or the whole-house audio system. When the CA-LCD
Keypad is off (or the CP4.6 zone is off), the local source will play through
the system speakers. When the CA-LCD keypad or the CP4.6 zone is turned
on, the speakers will automatically be connected to the audio distribution
system and bypass the local source.

CONNECTIONS

1) CA-LCD (Figure 1): Wire the +,- terminal of the CA-LCD to the +,- ter­minals of the SRM-2.1. Skip to step 3.

2) CP4.6 (Figure 2): This connection requires the use of a 1/8” male phono
plug. Wire the + terminal of the SRM-2.1 to the tip of the connector.
Wire the - terminal of the SRM-2.1 the sleeve of the connector. On the
rear of the CP4.6, plug the 1/8” phono connector into the 12VDC Trigger
Output of the zone where the local source unit will be.

3) Connect the positive and negative leads from each speaker ouput of the
local source to the front of the SRM-2.1 wall plate. See Figure 3.

4) Connect the speakers to the speaker connector on the back of the wall
plate. Connect the audio distribution system to the input. This is shown
in both figures 1 and 2.

NOTE: Use only UL/CSA approved junction box.
