1. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The Encore keypad (Model ENC-DRS) serves as a speaker zone

controller for the Encore Multi-Room Audio Distribution System. Up to

four keypads can be connected to each hub. Each keypad in the system

selects its speaker zone’s audio source, controls the volume, tone,

balance, loudness, and all other functions of the system. The keypad

contains a Class D digital stereo amplifier with 60 watts maximum output

power (30 watts per channel) and is designed to connect to a pair of

6 or 8-ohm speakers.
The keypad connects to the hub with Cat-5 cable and mounts in a

single-gang J-box. For maximum output installations, four independent

high current power supply outputs are provided on the hub for supplying

dedicated power to the keypads through 2-conductor 16 gauge wire.
At each speaker zone, the keypad selects between the four primary

hub audio sources from source input wall plates (Model ENC-SIWP), or

from its local audio source connected to a local input wall plate (Model

ENC-LIWP).
The system features IR remote control. An infrared repeater system

monitors the infrared receivers at each keypad and repeats the infrared

remote control signals to the audio source components through infrared

emitters connected to the wall plates. IR emitters are sold in a 4-pack

as Model 2171-4.
