C4630 SE HOME AUDIO SYSTEM

Paging Connections

(see Figure 12)

The C4630 SE’s P

AGING

connections allow connection of an audio input from a telephone

system, microphone preamp or other device to be distributed to designated Paging zones when
triggered by the C

ONTROL

Input. (Paging must be configured in the Sonance Control Manager.)

When 6 – 24VDC is present at the C4630 SE C

ONTROL

terminals, all system zones set to ‘Allow

Paging’ as configured with the Sonance Control Manager will switch to audio from the P

jack. When the control voltage drops to 0VDC, audio in the zones will switch back to the select-
ed source component.

RS-232 Connection

(see Figure 13)

The C4630 SE’s RS-232 connection allows it to send or receive serial commands to or from
other components. The RS-232 connection uses a female DB-9 connector with the following
pinout configuration:

Since different serial devices have different RS-232 connection configurations, consult the
documentation of the device you want to connect to the C4630 SE to determine what
cable/adapter may be required.
