Additional S86A Connections (With or Without SPP
Precision Panel)
The information below describes all connections that are made directly to the S86A regardless of the use of the SPP
Precision Panel.

SOURCE IR OUTPUT Connections

The S86A features 8 source-specific IR emitter outputs. Each of these outputs is active only when the assigned
source is selected. This makes it possible to use identical source components and still have the capability of sepa-
rate control. For ELAN multi-output sources such as VIA!dj or DTNR, VIA!TOOLS or ELANTOOLS setup software will
automatically route IR out of each IR port that the source is assigned to. The example below shows a VIA!dj that is
connected to Audio Inputs 1, 2, 3, and 4. Any of IR Emitter Outputs 1 through 4 can be used to control the VIA!dj. To
connect non-ELAN multi-output sources, see IR 'ALL' Output Port Connections below.
When connecting multiple S86A chassis, it is only necessary to connect IR sources to chassis #1. SOURCE IR
EXPANSION PORTS provide a link between chassis to facilitate this function.
