Niles Audio A4.6Ci - Manual (Page 52)

Multi-Room Zone
In a multi-room zone, the information to document in the Expander Schematic Multi-Room sheet (Figure 44) is
the same as in a Multi-Area Zone. The only difference is that you need silencers in all rooms for individual vol-
ume control.

A
Assign the first expander the same num-
ber as the zone to which it connects, fol-
lowed by (A) (for example, the expander
for Zone 6 would be #6-A).
4
B
If a second expander is required because
the room needs more than three keypads,
it becomes Expander (B) (for example,
two expanders for Zone 6 would be #6-A
and #6-B). With a second expander, the
zone can have up to five keypads.
The top input of Expander (A) connects to
the A4.6Ci keypad input. With a single
Expander, connect keypads for Rooms 1,
2, and 3 to the remaining inputs.
When a second expander is required, con-
nect Expander (B) to the bottom input of
Expander (A). Connect keypads for Room
1 and 2 to Expander (A) and keypads for
Room 3, 4, and 5 to Expander (B).
