System Guidelines • RUI Guidelines All wiring is 18 AWG (0.8231 mm ) (minimum) and 12 AWG (3.309 mm ) (maximum). • All wiring is supervised and power-limited. • All wiring that leaves the building requires overvoltage protection. Install the module inside an UL-Listed electrical box wherever wire enters or exits the building.
Network Audio Riser Controller Module Audio Network An audio network contains one node with an audio controller module Configuration (4100-1210 Analog Controller Board or 4100-1211 [or -1311] Digital Controller Board), and local analog or digital amplifiers. Some configurations may have an audio controller module located in a transponder end node;...
Configuration Overview The TIC and all other modules to be mounted in the transponder cabinet and attached expansion bays must be configured to operate correctly in the system via their DIP switch and jumper ports. This section describes the hardware configuration for TICs and the Network Audio Riser Controller Module.
Mounting Mounting TICs, Audio Riser Modules, and Network Audio Riser Controller Modules are 4” X 5” modules Instructions and are mounted per the following information. IMPORTANT: The TIC or Network Audio Riser Controller Module should be mounted in the upper left position of the bay. The audio riser module must be mounted directly below the TIC or Network Audio Riser Controller Module.

Wiring, Continued Overview The TIC (except for the Network Audio Riser Controller Module) must be connected to the host panel via RUI cabling. This section explains how to wire the two together, and how to set up a system with multiple transponders connected to the same host panel. RUI Wiring RUI cabling can be accomplished either through Class A or Class B wiring.

Wiring, Continued The 4100U or 4100ES may be connected to the 4100 Legacy Audio Controller via the 4100U Connecting the Audio Riser and the Network input on the Legacy Controller. The 4100U and 4100ES use a 4100U/4100ES Analog 10VRMS Analog Audio riser. In order to interface to a legacy 4100 Audio Controller Network Riser to Legacy 4100 input, an isolation/step-down transformer must be used.
Page 17
Wiring, Continued Amplifier and The low level (1Vp‐p) audio output from the legacy controller to the local amplifiers must be Harness converted from an unbalanced signal to a balanced signal in order to pass the distortion Connections requirements for this configuration. This is accomplished by a new Isolation Transformer harness, PN 0734‐231.
