Unpacking the System Components � Keep the original carton and packing materials for future shipment or storage. � Check for any visible signs of damage. If you encounter any concealed damage, consult your Russound dealer before proceeding to install the unit. � Retain the sales receipt as it establishes the duration of the limited warranty and provides information for insurance purposes.
CAA66 System Components: � 1 (one) CAA66 Controller/Amplifier � 6 (six) KP6 or KPL Keypads � 1 (one) SRC1 System Remote Control � 6 (six) 845.1 Micro Emitters
Tools needed for installation: � Drill with a 1/2" x 6" drill bit � Keyhole saw � Flat head screwdriver (medium size) � Phillips Screwdriver (cordless recommended) � 110 punchdown tool (included) � Modular RJ-45 crimper and connectors � Pair of diagonal cutters or wire strippers � Stud finder � Steel wire fish tape � Cable staples � Single-gang electrical work boxes
� It is recommended that the CAA66 and the source equipment be plugged into a dedicated 20-amp circuit with an isolated ground. A power line conditioner can reduce interference problems caused by noise found in some electrical systems.
� To determine the amount of CAT-5 wire required for the system installation, first decide how many keypads will be used, then determine the distance between each intended keypad location to the planned CAA66 location. The maximum recommended wire run length is 250 feet for each KP6 or KPL keypad.
� Make sure that the entire wire path between keypads and CAA66 is clear and not obstructed by a floor ceiling joist, or masonry wall which can"t be drilled through.
The CAA66 front panel removable bottom half hides the Programming Center. It is important to follow the proper removal process to remove the panel without damage.
The KPSC 12-pin header and the update jumper for the KP6 (and KPL) are located on the right side of the keypad when facing front. These are covered when a trim plate is installed. Note: The update pins on the KP6 are accessed from the side when the keypad is not installed.
The KP6/KPL keypad uses a 110punchdown terminal on the back panel to provide simple installation and a strong connection for CAT-5 cable"s eight conductors. Punchdown terminals require the use of a punchdown tool. Attach the CAT-5 cable to the 110-punchdown terminal on the KP6 keypad as shown, matching the conductor colors to the connection color guide. The keypad will not operate properly
if the terminations deviate from the required connection order. Take care when using an impact 110 punchdown tool, as this may overspread the contact points. Use of the impact tool may propel stray bits of wire and jacket into the keypad"s chassis and possibly cause a short in the circuitry. Gently shake or blow air through the keypad chassis to remove stray wire before the keypad is installed into the junction box.
5. Mount the keypad in the electrical box. For the KP6 keypad, insert the source name labels in the appropriate slots before attaching the back plate and trim plate.
The Keypad Ports are located on the back of the CAA66 in the top left of center. Connections at the Keypad Ports are made with RJ45 connectors using T568A CAT-5 wire configuration.
For a clean installation when wiring from a Keypad Port, use an RJ45 CAT-5 patch cable to connect from the keypad port to an RJ-45 wall plate (optional). Using the same RJ45 T568A CAT-5 wiring configuration, use CAT-5 from the RJ45 wall plate to the keypad.
If using more than one keypad in a zone, use an SA-ZX3 System Keypad Splitter (optional). The SA-ZX3 supports up to three keypads per zone and connects directly to the Keypad Port for that zone. The CAT-5 for the keypads is run to a wall plate, with RJ45 CAT-5 patch cables between the wall plate and the SA-ZX3. Always use the RJ45 T568A CAT-5 wire configuration when connecting keypads.
Source Audio Connections The CAA66 supports up to six audio sources. The Source Inputs are located on the back panel. Connect each source using quality RCA signal cables. Connect the Left and Right Audio outputs from each source to the corresponding inputs on the CAA66 controller. Label each cable with the name of the selected source and the Source Audio input number located on the CAA66.
1. Using an IR emitter (the Russound 845.1 is recommended) attach the end of the emitter with the 1/8" plug to the IR emitter port above the source input.
RNET Source Audio Connections The CAA66 supports source control of Russound RNET components (ST2 Smart Tuner, SMS3 Smart Media Server) through the Controller Link ports via SRC1 remote control commands but provides no feedback to keypads.
Using quality RCA signal cables, connect the Left and Right Audio outputs from each RNET source to the corresponding inputs on the CAA66 controller. Label each cable with the name of the selected source and the Source Audio input number located on the CAA66.
Common IR Connections The Common IR jack on the rear of the CAA66 allows control of any source equipment without that source being selected on the keypad. The connection for the Com IR jack is made using an IR emitter with a 1/8"" plug or IR link cable.
The Russound 845.1 single IR emitter is recommended, or use an IR connecting block such as the Russound 857 which allows multiple units to be controlled through the COM IR Port.
The speakers are connected to the CAA66 using modular snap connectors. Each of these colorcoded connectors is designated for the speaker set of a particular amplified zone. To avoid confusion, connect one zone speaker set at a time starting with Zone 1, taking care to keep zone and speaker wire identities straight. Note: An 8 Ohm minimum speaker is required for each amplified output.
Zone Fixed/Variable Audio Output The CAA66 has two line Audio outputs, on Zone 1 and Zone 2. Each of these zone audio output connections features a stereo line out RCA connection plus a switch to allow for either a fixed or a variable line level output. When set to Variable, the keypad volume level affects this output. In the Fixed position, the keypad volume level will not change the output level.
The fixed or variable audio outputs can be used if additional amplification is desired (e.g., Russound R235LS two-channel amplifier). Use quality RCA signal cables to ensure a constant quality audio signal.
When 12VDC is applied to the Mute In, the system will fully mute all zones in the system. The connections for the trigger are made using a twoconductor cable with 1/8" male mini-plug jacks. The tip is positive (+) and sleeve is negative (-). This allows for the connection of an external paging or muting device. Note: The CAA66 will not accept a paging audio input; however, if used with an independent paging system with 12V trigger out, that can be used to trigger the mute.
Trigger Out 12VDC output is used for triggering an external amplifier or other component. The connections for the output are made using a two-conductor cable with 1/8" male mini-plug jacks at each end. The tip is positive (+) and sleeve is negative (-). The System Trigger Out supplies 12VDC when the first keypad is turned on. The 12 VDC is removed 5 minutes after the last keypad is turned off.
The Controller Link In and Link Out can be used to connect up to six CAA66 controllers. The connection is made using a CAT-5 patch cable from the Link Out of the master CAA66 and into the Link In of the next controller. Along with data signals, the Controller Link In and Link Out jack passes the six source IR signals. The CAT-5 patch cable should not exceed 18 inches in length to avoid potential cross-talk between the source-specific IR repeating signal lines.
The CAA66 supports RS-232 communication with various third party automation systems or PC for control and firmware updates of the controller. The RS-232 com port is located on the back of the CAA66 and uses a DB-9 cable connection.
For RS-232 protocol, firmware updates and the backup PC application, see the Document Center at www.russound.com. Look for the Technical Documents under Multi-source/Multizone products.
