Multi Room Audio Amplifier Installation Instructions
1 Introduction
The installation instructions cover a 'standalone' Multi Room Audio (MRA) amplifier
installation without a matrix switcher. A standalone amplifier configuration includes
connections to a power supply, loudspeakers and a local stereo audio source. You
can also connect additional MRA amplifiers using digital audio cables.
If you are installing a Multi Room Audio system that includes a matrix switcher, refer
to the information found in the
Installation Instructions
.
C-Bus Multi Room Audio Matrix Switcher and System
After you install the amplifier, as described in this document, refer to the
Room Audio Amplifier User's Guide
for operating instructions.

panel controls. The high power remote amplifier is normally placed in an equipment
rack, built-in-robe, or above the ceiling. C-Bus input devices, such as wall switches,
DLT switches, or a touchscreen provide volume and tone control.
The 560110R Low Power Remote Amplifier has a compact form factor that allows
up to 4 units to be installed in a row in a standard 19-inch equipment rack. Unused
locations can be filled using the 56011E empty enclosure. C-Bus input unit provide

1.2 Safety and Product Handling
Read and understand the following safety hazard information.
WARNINGS
Failure to observe these warnings could lead to electrical shock and serious injury:
• Use only the specified power supply unit that is of the correct type for the
amplifier you are using. Do not substitute any other power supply.
• Replace the power supply unit if the power supply or the cord is damaged. The
power supplies cannot be repaired and there are no user serviceable parts
inside.
• Do not allow liquids to splash or drip on the power unit or the amplifier. Do not
place an object containing liquid, such as a vase, on top of the equipment.
To prevent overheating and the possibility of a fire, always provide adequate
ventilation around the power supply. Do not cover the power supply or enclose it in
a box.
Prevent tripping and falling by installing equipment in safe locations where cables do
not create a tripping and falling hazard.
The amplifiers can produce sounds loud enough to cause permanent hearing loss.
Prevent hearing loss by doing the following:
• Mute the speakers before connecting an audio source.

Multi Room Audio Amplifier Installation Instructions
• Turn down the volume setting before connecting headphones. Connect the
headphones to the amplifier BEFORE placing them on your head.
• Do not allow children to use the Multi Room Audio equipment without adequate
supervision.
Cautions
Prevent damage to the equipment and extend its useful life by following these
guidelines:
• Only use a Clipsal approved power supply to power an amplifier. Using any
other power supply can damage the unit, and void the warranty.
• The amplifiers are designed for indoor use only in moderate to tropical climates.
Operating the equipment at high temperatures for extended periods will reduce
reliability and product life.
• Provide adequate ventilation. Ensure at least 50 mm of free space is available at
each side of the high power amplifiers. Allow at least 15 mm of free space
directly above the units.
• Never insert C-Bus RJ45 plugs into LAN or Digital Audio sockets. Damage to
the equipment can occur. The use of colour-coded network cables is highly
recommended.
• Disconnect power from the amplifier before connecting or disconnecting cables.
Care Instructions
Maintain the appearance of the equipment by following these guidelines:
• Use a soft lint free cloth for cleaning.
• Do not use chemicals or spray cleaners.
• Do not use hard, sharp objects to select the controls.
• Do not allow dust to accumulate on the equipment.
