Source Input Wall Plate Setup

The system supports up to four audio input sources. Each audio
source component connects to a source input wall plate (Model
ENC-SIWP).
The source input wall plates can connect to analog stereo audio,
coaxial digital audio, or optical digital audio provided by the source
component. The audio input type is selected by the input selector
switch on the face of the wall plate.

Input Gain Switches

The source input wall plate has internal switches for adding gain to
low level audio signals. In most cases these switches can be left in
the OFF position for no increase in gain.
To add gain to the audio signal at the wall plate, set the switches
as shown in the table below:
GAIN RIGHT CHANNEL
1
+0db OFF
+4db ON
+8db OFF
+10db ON
The clipping indicator will light if the signal level is too high.

IR Out Connection

The source input wall plate features an IR OUT jack for connection
to an infrared emitter. The infrared emitters have an adhesive back
so they can be attached to the source component's faceplate near
the component's infrared sensor. Each keypad has an infrared
sensor that will repeat a remote control's signal using the emitters.
This allows controlling the selected source component remotely
from any keypad location.

Source Input Wall Plate Installation

Source input wall plates should be mounted in locations where
audio source components will be placed. Each source component
will have an audio connection to the wall plate using coax or optical
cable, and an infrared emitter wire connection.
For installations where the audio source components are located
in the same vicinity, a double, triple, or quad J-box can be used to
mount multiple source input wall plates.
1. Determine the location for the source input wall plates and install one or
more J-boxes.
2. Route Cat-5 cable from the hub to each of the source input wall plate
locations.
3. Connect the cables to the Type 110 punch-down
connectors on the hub. Use Type RJ-45 connectors on the wall plate end
of the cable.
4. Install the wall plate into the J-box and cover it using a Decora type wall
plate.
