    CONFIGURATION 1 - BASIC SIX ZONE SYSTEM Figure 2 This is the simplest of the M-64 configurations (see Figure 2). It depicts one JobSite M-64 Multizone Receiver installed to provide sound to six listening zones. Each zone consists of one room with one pair of speakers. One M-4KP 4 Key Multizone Keypad is included in each zone for user control. M-10KP 10 Key...
  • Page 7 CONFIGURATION 2 - Using two pairs of speakers in a single Zone Figure 3 In Figure 3, speaker cable is connected to the speaker outputs of Zone 3 and then parallel connected to the speakers of the living room and dining room. A M-4KP Keypad is located in the living room.
  • Page 8 Amplifier A45-X2 Figure 4 Each zone of the M-64 provides RCA preamplifier output connections for the connection of external amplifiers. External amplifiers can be used to provide more power in a zone. In Figure 4, an external amplifier has been connected to zone 3. Using an amplifier with more than the 30W per channel provides the zone with more volume for listening in large rooms and outdoors.
  • Page 9 Figure 5 The preamplifier output connectors on the M-64 for zones 4, 5 and 6 have a fixed/variable setting. Using the fixed setting with an external amplifier enables a zone to be divided up into individual rooms using conventional JobSite Impedance Matching Volume Controls.
  • Page 10 Figure 6 More than one M-64 can be used if the system requires more than six zones. A maximum of three M-64s, providing up to 18 zones, can be combined to create a larger multizone/multi-source system. One M-64 is designated as the Master and the others as Slaves (see Installation Settings on page 19 for more details).
  • Page 11 CONFIGURATION 6 - ADDING A THIRD M-64 TO EXPAND TO 18 ZONES Designated as the Master Designated as Slave #1 Designated as Slave #2 Figure 7 When sharing source components with three M-64s (see Figure 7) an Audio/Video Distribution Amplifier is required for each source.
  • Page 12 Important Note: If the home theater receiver has shorting audio inputs, an Audio/Video Distribution Amplifier must be used in place of the RCA Y-adapters. Shared Source Component Control The Emitter output from the Home Theater IR repeater (Figure 8) is connected to the IR Input of the M-64. The Home Theater IR remote control is now able to control the shared source components.
  • Page 13 Figure 9 A Paging Input connection on the rear panel of the M-64 provides a connection for the paging output signal of popular telephone systems for voice paging through the speakers in the listening zones. Paging volume level can be adjusted by the M-64 (see Installation Settings on page 28 for more information).
  • Page 14 ON. This type of video output provides an excellent method for component synchronization. The M-64 has three source-synchronization connections that can accept either 12V or video input. In Figure 10, the video output of a DSS is connected to both a TV and the corresponding Sync Input for the DSS using an RCA Y-adapter. Picture quality will be unaffected due to the high impedance of the Sync Input.
  • Page 15 Placement Voltage Sync is also a reliable method of synchronization if chosen and Place the M-64 on a flat, level surface such as a table or shelf, with its implemented correctly. The Sync Inputs can detect the control out voltage weight equally distributed on each of its four feet.

  • Page 31: Operation

    An IR output of the IR repeating or control system for the home M-64R Remote theater is connected to the IR Input of the Master M-64. All the IR commands sent from the home theater are then passed through to all IR Emitters connected to the M-64 for control of source components.
  • Page 32 Method #1, when the home theater turns off, the 12V signal is removed from the M-64 Receiver and it now “knows” that the home theater turned off. It will then check if there are any other zones on the M-64 active before it turns off the shared source components.
  • Page 33 The Master Keys available on the M-4KP 4 Key Multizone Keypad and the Source Buttons on the hand-held M-64R Remote (Figure 29) provide “one-touch activation” of the M-64 and source components. The Master Keys on the M-4KP 4 Key Multizone Keypad are equipped with back lighting LED’s for indicating Zone ON/OFF, Zone Mute, and Zone Input Selection status.
  • Page 34 There are two installer programmable events available for Master Keys and Source Buttons 2, 3, and 4: Event 3 - the Source ON Event, and Event 4 - the Sequence Event. Because there is no power command required for the M-64’s internal tuner, Master Key 1 and the Tuner Source Button are programmable only with the Sequence Event.
  • Page 35 ALL ON/PAGE, select the source associated with the Master Key/Source Button pressed and held, and that same Master Key LED illuminates GREEN. The ALL ON volume can be adjusted with the M-64. Note: When the Tuner Master Key (Master #1) is pressed and held, the radio station currently selected in that zone will be selected by all zones when using multiple M-64's in a system.
  • Page 36 OFF KEY EVENTS When you press the OFF Key/Button, as many as two events occur. The first event is factory programmed and is responsible for turning the zone or all zones OFF every time the OFF Key/Button is pressed. The second event is responsible for turning OFF the source components and only occurs if the zone turning OFF was the last zone ON in the system (including the Home Theater Zone sharing source components).
  • Page 37 VOLUME KEYS/VOLUME BUTTONS The Volume Keys on the M-4KP 4 Key Multizone Keypad and the Volume Buttons on the hand-held M-64R Remote provide control of volume for individual zones. Volume Keys/Volume Buttons Operation Pressing the Volume + or the Volume - Keys/Buttons raises and lowers the speaker output and the preamplifier output for the zone in which you are located.
  • Page 38 In a zone using the speaker output or the preamplifier output set to variable, pressing the Mute Key/Button mutes and unmutes the sound for that zone only. The M-64 still considers the zone to be ON while the zone is MUTED. The Master Key for the selected source lights GREEN while the zone is ON and unmuted, and RED while the zone ON and MUTED.
  • Page 39 Function Key/Button Operation for the Connected Source Components After a Master Key/Source Button for a source component has been pressed, the M-64 activates a zone and selects that source component. The individual function keys/buttons in that zone will now issue the IR commands that have been programmed for the source component you selected.

    Check the AC power outlet. Verify that the outlet is providing power (i.e., a switched AC outlet). Ensure that the M-64 is always plugged into an unswitched AC outlet. If you've checked the cord and the outlet, and you still have no lights, call JobSite for service.
