Network Wiring
When wiring the AAE Adagio Audio Expander, APAD controller, or C2N-DBF12
keypad to the AES, consider the following:
•
Use Crestron Certified Wire.
•
Use Crestron power supplies for Crestron equipment.
•
Provide sufficient power to the system.
CAUTION: Insufficient power can lead to unpredictable results or damage
to the equipment. Please use the Crestron Power Calculator to help calculate
how much power is needed for the system
(http://www.crestron.com/calculators).
•
For larger networks, Use a Cresnet Hub/Repeater (CNXHUB) to maintain
signal quality
For more details, refer to "Check Network Wiring" on page 61.
Hardware Hookup
The AES should be used in a well-ventilated area. Do not block any ventilation
openings. The venting holes should not be obstructed under any circumstances. If
the AES is hot to the touch, consider using forced air ventilation and/or incrementing
the spacing between units.
To prevent overheating, do not operate this product in an area that exceeds the
environmental temperature range listed in the table of specifications. Consideration
must be given if installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly since the operating
ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than the room ambient.
Contact with thermal insulating materials should be avoided on all sides of the unit.
WARNING: To prevent injury and / or equipment damage due to electric shock,
disconnect power from the AES prior to making any wiring connections.
When using the out-of-the-box functionality, the AES can support up to two tuner
cards, one AAE, one CEN-IDOC, one AAS-1/-2/-4, and any combination of six
APAD or C2N-DBF12 control devices (plus an additional six on the AAE if
connected). Observe the following when connecting hardware to the AES.
•
Tuner Cards (Optional): Tuner cards must be installed in slots 1 and 2. In
the out-of-the-box configuration, a card cannot be installed in slot 3. Source
input ports 1 and 2 are unavailable for other sources when a tuner card is
installed in slot 1. Source input ports 3 and 4 are unavailable for other
sources when a tuner card is installed in slot 2. For information on
connecting antennas to a tuner card, refer to the respective tuner card's
guide.
