Kustom KHS-6640 - Manual (Page 5)

INFRARED (IR) SECTION
16.) Source Output this 2 conductor jack is from the emitters and are “locked” source
specific. This is useful in the instance, if you have 2 or more of the same brand CD player, since the
same IR command will work on both, this ONLY sends the IR command to this particular source.
Nearly any brand of emitter will work. There are four source specific IR jacks.
This connector is duplicated for the remaining 3 zones and function exactly the same as the first one.
17.) Sum Output this 2 conductor jack is from the IR emitters and are summed across the
IR buss. This will allow normal operation of different components that don’t share the same IR
commands. There are four sum outut IR jacks.
This connector is duplicated for the remaining 3 zones and function exactly the same as the first one..
18.) Power this is where the AC power cord connects to the unit. It is a detachable 3 prong
I.E.C. plug. Never remove the ground lug on the plug or electrical shock and damage to the unit could
result.
INSTALLATION NOTES
WIRING DIAGRAM FOR REMOTE ROOM CONTROLLERS
l Use Category 5 8-conductor cable. It is not necessary for it to be shielded but be careful with
your cable runs. Avoid running a tight parallel with A.C. wiring. Be careful if stapling the wire to secure
it in place.
l Use high quality RJ-45 connectors and make sure you use a high quality crimp tool. The
connection of the RJ-45 connectors is crucial in making the system work properly.
l Avoid tight or sharp turns near the ends of the RJ-45 connections to the controller or main
units. This can put excessive strain on already small wires.
l Note when stacking multiple units: Audio sources connect via the distribution outputs and wall
controllers.combine via the Master Controller Out jack. Make a short jumper and connect to the second
unit’s Master Controller In jack to allow the “party” mode master controller to access all zones. For
the IR Emitters, we strongly suggest using a adapter for the emitters that attach directly from the
sources and then to the second unit’s IR outputs. This then allows the source specific functionality
to be utilized by the second KHS-6640. An additional controller can be run per zone by using a
45
adapter before the main unit.
