Creating a Page/Door Chime Only "Wide Coverage
Zone"
In areas of a home where ELAN Page and Doorchime audio needs to be heard, but
music is not necessary, the VHTO100 makes it easy to creat a "wide coverage" zone -
as well as drastically reducing the cost of such a zone by eliminating the need for mul-
tiple impedance matching volume controls with Override. In the diagram below, one
VHTO (with an impedance match setting of 2x because two 8 ohm speakers are wired
in parallel to each channel) can be used to send ELAN Page and Door Chime audio to
four different areas, or two VHTOs (with impedance match settings of 4x) can be used
to send ELAN Page and Door Chime auido to eight different areas USING ONLY TWO
AMP CHANNELS!
