C4630 SE Numeric Keypad
(see Figure 14, on page 18)
The C4630 SE Numeric Keypad incorporates ten numeric buttons labeled “0” through “9”, and two buttons labeled “+”
and “–”. Like the C4630 SE Main Keypad, each of these buttons has P
RESS , P RESS -A ND -H OLD and D OUBLE -P RESS functions.
Unlike the C4630 SE Main Keypad, the Numeric Keypad has no “out-of-the-box” functions — it must first be programmed
with the Sonance Control Manager software. The Numeric Keypad connects to the Main Keypad with the included 14-pin
ribbon cable; it cannot operate on its own. See
Mounting the C4630 SE Keypads, on page 21 for details.
Keypad Location
The C4630 SE Main and Numeric Keypads can be mounted in standard single or double J-box enclosures or P-rings.
NOTE: Do NOT mount the C4630 SE ke ypads in the same electr ical box with AC house wir ing,
light switches, or any other high-voltage device or control. The ke ypads can share gang boxes with
each other, or with other controls such as A/B speaker switches, infrared receivers and volume controls,
if these other devices are rated as Class 2 devices according to the National Electr ical Code.
The C4630 SE keypads should typically be located near the entrance to a room, similar in height and location to a light
switch (see Note, above). If an optional IR receiver is installed in the Main Keypad (see below), care should be taken to
avoid placing the keypad near windows or areas that get direct sunlight that could interfere with IR receiver operation.
If this is not possible, you should locate the IR receiver away from the keypad.
Avoid mounting keypads in locations that will be exposed to moisture, such as near sinks, showers or bathtubs. If you want
to install keypads outdoors, only install them in a covered area with an appropriate weather-proof box.
Main Keypad IR Receiver Holster
The Main Keypad does not feature a built-in IR receiver: it has a holster
designed to receive a Sonance FSMR1 Full-Spectrum IR Receiver
(part #92222) or MR1 Micro IR Receiver (part #91344), both available
separately (see
Figure 15). A window on the front of the keypad allows
the IR receiver to function. IR talkback is through the Z ONE OFF button.
If the Main Keypad is mounted in a location that creates interference from
sunlight when the IR receiver is installed in its holster, you can move the
IR receiver to another location in the room and still wire it to the keypad.
NOTE: IR receivers must be connected to the keypads to allow the
optional IR remote to control the C4630 SE and to allow source
component remotes to control their respective source components from
inside the listening zones.
Installing an IR Receiver into the Keypad
1. Insert the IR receiver into the keypad holster as shown in Figure 15A.
Feed the ribbon cable through the opening in the holster.
2. Carefully insert the holster into the keypad as shown in Figure 15B. The IR
receiver’s photodiode should be directly behind the keypad’s IR window.
