SETTING ALL ON/PAGE MODE
There are six All ON/PAGE switches located on the hidden program-
ming panel of the A4.6Ci. Each of the A4.6Ci's zones has a corre-
sponding numbered switch (see Figure 40).
The switches enable (up) or disable (down) the individual zones from
responding to ALL ON commands and incoming audio pages.
SETTING MASTER/SLAVE MODE
The factory default mode of the A4.6Ci MultiZone Preamplifier is "Master," but it also can be set to function as
one of three "Slaves" in expanded systems (refer to System Configuration 2). Changing the mode of any unit is
accomplished using the S/M switch on the hidden programming panel of the A4.6Ci.
The up position is the Master mode; the down position is the Slave mode (see Figure 40).
SETTING FLASHER #4 OUTPUT MODE
Flasher #4 is adjustable between a low-output mode designed for use with Niles IRC-2P MicroFlashers and a
high-output mode designed for use with the Niles IRC-1P Flooding Flasher. The factory default setting is low-
output mode.
The up position is the high-output mode; the down position is the low output mode (see Figure 40).
INSTALLING ZONE LABELS
Each A4.6Ci is included with pre-printed zone/room labels that are designed to be placed in the zone label
slots to identify the names of each of six zones. To install these labels follow the steps below:
1. Remove the label chosen for Zone 1 from the included room/zone labels.
2. Affix the label in Zone Label Slot #1.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for Zones 2 through 6.
VOLUME SETTINGS
The A4.6Ci has three useful volume settings:
Maximum Turn ON and Source Change Volume Level
Maximum Turn ON and Source Change Volume prevents a zone from playing too loudly when it is first turned
on or if the zone changes the currently selected source.
When a zone is turned ON individually, it will always turn ON to its last volume setting unless the zone's last
volume setting is greater than the factory set Maximum Turn ON and Source Change Volume. When greater, the
zone will turn ON to the Maximum Turn ON and Source Change Volume level set by the factory in the A4.6Ci.
When a zone selects a new source, the volume setting does not change unless the zone’s current volume set-
ting is greater than the Maximum Turn ON and Source Change Volume setting. When greater, the zone will
change to the Maximum Turn ON and Source Change Volume level set by the factory in the A4.6Ci.
The Maximum Turn ON and Source Change Volume is adjustable individually for each of the six zones using
A4.6Ci Windows configuration software.
