Chapter 2 - Safety instructions and safety warnings Safety Warnings To prevent electrical shock or potential fire hazards, do not expose this product to moisture or rain. Do not use any other power supply or cable other than the one provided with this unit. - Page 13 CAB 4n Hardware Manual Exposure to extremely high noise levels may cause permanent hearing loss. Individuals vary considerably in susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss, but nearly everyone will lose some hearing if exposed to sufficiently intense noise for a sufficient time. We recommend that all persons exposed to equipment capable of producing high sound pressure levels use hearing protectors.

Page 18: Description
Engineered from the ground up with the commercial sound systems contractor in mind, the CAB 4n includes removable screw connectors for easy installation and cost effective servicing, as well as front panel hidden ID assignment. -
Page 19: Audio Input And Output Modules
The CAB 4n supports a number of different input and output modules. These modules are factory fitted into the four-channel bays at the rear of the unit. Note: A CAB 4n may be ordered short loaded, that is, with some of the bays empty. In this case, blanking panels will be fitted. -
Page 20: Using A Cab 4N With A Nion
Chapter 4 - Introduction to CAB 4n Using a CAB 4n with a NION The CAB 4n is designed to work in conjunction with a NION. In the example below, a project is created in NWare, then deployed to a NION, so it can control the CAB 4ns on the network. -

Page 24: Introduction
Some t ext t o force a page break in W ord but rem ain invis ible Introduction The CAB 4n is designed to mount in a standard EIA electronic equipment rack. Because the CAB 4n includes forced air cooling, rack mounted vent panels are not required for most installations. -
Page 25: Connections
Connections CobraNet network connections The CAB 4n features a number of different types of connectors. The first priority is the CobraNet™ network port. This RJ-45 connector is designed to connect with standard, off-the-shelf Category 5 (CAT 5) cable for use with standard Ethernet network switches. -

Page 28: Pin Outs
Chapter 5 - Installing the CAB 4n Pin outs The RS-485 connector has two sets of terminations that are wired in parallel. This allows you to bus adjacent serial data connections at each network location. With this type of connection, there is no input or output. - Page 29 CAB 4n Hardware Manual Although the 8P8C modular connector (RJ-45) used in CAT 5 cabling originates with AT&T, it is functionally different for configuring Ethernet cabling. The Bell System uses a series of colors to identify wire pairs. This color scheme identifies the pair numbers, and conductor polarity, and applies to the wire, not the connector.

- Page 32 The action of the switch-over is different for each type of CAB. In the case of the CAB 4n, input audio is present simultaneously at both units and both units will pass audio internally.

Page 33: Setting The Hardware Id
The Hardware ID is also specified in NWare to allow communications between the CAB and its control panel (the yellow CAB 4n icon To set the Hardware ID on the CAB 4n 1. Remove the screws from the CAB face plate to gain access to the hardware ID switches. -
Page 34: What To Do Next
What to do next The CAB 4n is managed and configured using NWare. Refer to the section Adding a CAB 4n to your design in the NWare User Guide to see how to use a CAB 4n in your audio system design. -

A hardware fault indictor that shows that the CAB is working correctly, or that an internal fault has occurred. Note: On the main board of the CAB 4n is an EPROM slot referred to as U22. This contains an EPROM specifically programmed for the type of CAB (Dante, CM-1 or CM-2). If an incorrectly programmed EPROM has been fitted, the mismatch can be identified using CobraNet Discovery, but the fault relay may not necessarily be triggered. - Page 37 The GPIO-25 is a DIN rail package and includes removable Euro connectors for terminating the pins. A single DB-25 male/female cable connects the GPIO-25 to the NION or CAB 4n. GPIO pin assignment The illustration below shows the pin assignments for the CAB 4n GPIO system.
