Page 6: Installation
INSTALLATION CONNECTIONS Connect audio sources to the RMC-66A using the 6 stereo RCA inputs on the rear panel. Input 1 can be used as priority over all inputs. When 12VDC is applied (3.5mm tip+ sleeve -) to the PA-IN jack, source 1 will be sent to all zones. - Page 7 The RMC-66A is capable of driving 4-8 ohm speaker loads in stereo mode and 8ohm loads in bridge (mono) mode. Improper speaker installation can damage the amplifiers and void the warranty. Use good quality 12-14awg stranded copper speaker wire. The speaker output terminal block connectors are removable. Remove the terminal block connector and make sure that all connections are open by turning each set screw counter clockwise.
- Page 8 The RMC-66A has optional POE enabled keypads. This allows for source control from each specific zone as well as IR routing to the appropriate source devices once selected. RMC-66K (Optional Accessory Kit) also comes with a hub that allows for all 6-keypads to be connected to the amp via Cat5e/6.
