    Installing the XDM4600KIT Introduction Designed for installation in new homes, the XDM4600 provides six sources of audio/music to four zones (expandable to eight with the optional Expansion Hub that can be purchased separately). If you follow the step-by-step illustrated instruction in this section, the result will be a successful professional-quality installation.

    Central Controller with the 18-gauge, 2-conductor wires that go to the speakers. Crossing these wires will result in damage to the speakers and zone keypads. • Keep all XDM4600 wiring away from 120/240V wires, security, dimmers, or other control wiring.

  • Page 17: Figure 6-Central Controller Wiring

    • Do not exceed 300 feet of CAT-5/16-gauge, 2-conductor wire run from the Central Controller to any Zone Keypad. • Label all wiring runs. The Zone Keypads and the Door Station both use CAT-5 wiring, but they use different signals and voltages. Label the CAT-5 wiring, 18-gauge speaker wire and 16-gauge, 2- conductor power wire to prevent Zone Keypad wires from being connected to the Door Station port, or the Zone power cable from being plugged into the Zone speaker port.

    Figure 7—XDM4600KIT Wiring Scheme. NOTE for detailed Keypad wiring refer to figure 10 under installing zone keypad section of the manual. Figure 7 shows the system wiring schematic for the Central Controller (XDM46CC), four Zone Keypads (XDM46K) and their speaker pairs. How to read the schematic: •...

    Location Considerations • Do not place anything on top of the Central Controller that will interfere with the airflow out of the vents. • Do not place the Central Controller near any strong heat source such as a heating vent or a heating element.
  • Page 20: Figure 8-Wiring For Audio Sources And Ir Emitters

    Figure 8—Wiring for Audio Sources and IR Emitters Locate the source inputs on the back of the Central Controller and connect the appropriate audio source cables. Connect each source output, left and right, using quality audio source cables. • Line-level audio cables carrying audio to the Central Controller are shown connecting the audio sources to the Central Controller.
  • Page 21: Installing The Zone Keypads

    Installing the Zone Keypads Location Considerations • Do not install the electrical box in non-climate controlled locations such as outside the house, in outside walls, or in a garage. • Do not install the electrical box in stud cavities that contain other wiring, ductwork, air-return cavities, piping, etc.

    Finishing the Zone Keypads Figure 10—Zone Keypad Wiring Figure 10 shows the wiring hookups for the backside connectors of the Zone Keypad (XDM46K). How to read the schematic: The 16-gauge (power) and 18-gauge (for the speakers), 2-conductor wires attach to the 1x6 connector.
  • Page 23: Installing The Speakers

    • DO NOT confuse the 16-gauge power wire with the 18-gauge speaker wires. Crossing these wires will result in damage to the speakers and zone keypads. • Insert the Zone Keypad into the rough-in box. Make sure that none of the cables are pinched and all are clear of the box.
  • Page 24: Installing The Expansion Hub

    Figure 11—Door Station Wiring Figure 11 shows the wiring hookups for the Door Station (DS3B2). The color-coded wires of the Door Station and the CAT-5 cable are matched up and attached with wire nuts. An ME3 back box is required for the DS3B2 and must be installed at rough in. Installing the Expansion Hub The Expansion Hub is available as an optional component.
  • Page 25: Figure 12-Back Of The Expansion Hub

    Rough-In Considerations • Keep all Expansion Hub wiring away from 120/240V wires, security, dimmers, and other control wiring. • Allow enough length on all wires to reach an Expansion Hub located ten feet away from the wall port. • Label all CAT-5 wiring: Zone 5, Zone 6, Zone 7, and Zone 8. •...
