9.2 Addressing
The older CD-5 smart speaker protocol allowed addressing up to four speakers ("rooms") per
zone, referred-to as Speakers A, B, C and D. Similarly, older Bose
four DIP switches used for selecting which of these speakers should be controlled. All AM25P/30P
II digital bass module powered speakers are hard-wired as smart speaker address A. All LSA's
are hard-wired as address B.
The AV28 media center's RF remote has three Room Code DIP switches (not implemented at
printing of this manual), allowing up to seven speakers per zone to be addressed, referred-to as
Rooms A through G. Since this addressing scheme is different than that used by older systems, a
translation table is required to understand how to use AV28 media center's RF remote when
controlling AM25P/30P II digital bass module or LSA (when a zone is set for legacy mode), as
follows:
Postman RF Remote Room Switches for Legacy Mode
Postman Remote's Room
DIP Switch Pattern
(switches 7,8&9)
000 (Room A)
001 (Room B)
*010 (Room C)
011 (Room D)
100 (Room E)
101 (Room F)
*110 (Room G)
111 (All Rooms)
The table shows that up to three AM25P/30P II digital bass module's and three LSA's (labelled #1,
#2 and #3 here) can be addressed by a AV28 media center remote control. Note that a special
adapter box would be required to actually hang more than one AM25P/30P II digital bass module
and one LSA off each zone of the AV28 media center . *To control a single AM25P/30P II digital
bass module, it is recommended that the user set switches 7, 8 & 9 on the user's AV28 RF remote
to 010 (Room C, where 0=down and 1=up). To control a single LSA, it is recommended that a user
set these switches to 110 (Room G).
