    ENGLISH Danger Exposure to extremely high noise levels may cause a permanent hearing loss. Individuals vary considerably to noise induced hearing loss but nearly everyone will lose some hearing if exposed to sufficiently intense noise for a sufficient time. The U.S. Government's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has specified the following permissible noise level exposures: DURATION PER DAY (HOURS) 8 6 4 3 2 1...

    “homerun” from each zone to the location of the Essentia amplifier and Audio Source equipment. Complete CAT5 Crimping Instructions The NuVo audio systems require CAT5, unshielded, twisted pair (UTP), for communication between the keypads/Display Pads and the main amplifier unit. Each end of the wire is terminated with an RJ45 connector.

    II. Installing the Essentia Amplifier System setup works best when the amplifier is placed in the same location as the audio source equipment. This is typically in an audio rack, entertainment center or a closet dedicated to housing the home audio/video equipment. The amplifier should be plugged in and the power button on the front panel should be turned on before proceeding with the rest of the installation.

    The two SUM outputs will flash any IR command that is sent from any of the zones. This is used to connect the NuVo T2 Tuner, which has a single IR direct input to control both tuners to the Essentia System or an IR blaster designed to flash IR commands to a variety of components.

  • Page 16: All On/Master Mode

    All On/Master Mode Volume Reset Each zone has the capability of turning on at two different volume level settings. At factory default the zone will turn on at the previous listening level. If desired, you can change that default to a low level volume reset regardless of the previous level.
  • Page 17: Using The Fixed And Variable Lineouts

    Each zone of the Essentia amplifier has two 3.5mm mini stereo outputs. These are fixed and variable lineouts used for adding additional amplification when necessary for each zone. A distinct advantage to the NuVo equipment is the ability to use the amplified output, variable and fixed lineouts all simultaneously on all zones.

  • Page 19: The Nv-Lrc1 Remote Control

    The Essentia System comes with the NV-LRC1 Learning Remote Control. This remote allows wireless control of all keypad functions, as well as the functions of the audio source equipment. Each NuVo zone keypad has an IR receiver that captures the specific source commands from any remote control and in turn sends the command ultimately to the appropriate source equipment.

    It is designed to be used universally in a variety of applications, but as shown in fig. 18, it can be triggered on and off by any zone keypad. When connected to the keypad, the user will listen to the NuVo audio system when the zone is turned on. When the zone is off the LSA40 will automatically amplify any incoming local audio signal.
