Product Overview - Russound A-C68 Installation Manual

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Thank you for choosing the Russound® A-C68 A-BUS® multizone controller.
The A-C68 caters to end users who want more control over their multiroom
systems with the ability to control the system from anywhere in the house. Six
source inputs, simplified programming, IR remote control and user adjustable
sound controls make listening to music throughout the home easier than ever.
This innovative product features a rack mountable form (1U) with support for
six sources and eight zones. It features six buffered, fixed level audio source
loop outputs. This source loop configuration allows the A-C68 to pass source
signals to another component, such as a home theater receiver or to another
A-C68 for sharing sources in a multiple controller system
The onboard IR library provides control codes for thousands of source
components, and supports learning new codes as well.
System setup and source programming is accomplished through a minimal
step process using the system remote control and the front panel programming
center.
