RF-SSVC4/RF-SSVC6 Speaker Selectors

QUICK SETUP GUIDE

ENGLISH 09-1150

Zone buttons

The RF-SSVC4 and RF-SSVC6 are passive speaker selectors
that allow you to distribute an amplified stereo signal to multiple listening zones.

Guidelines

• When the connecting distance (length) is greater than 100 feet (30 m), 14-gauge cable should be used to reduce signal loss. For shorter distances,

16~18-gauge cables are acceptable.

• When connecting the speakers to an amplifier, make note of the polarity (positive +/red to positive, negative -/black to negative). For best sound

performance, make sure that polarity is consistent among the amplifier, volume control, speaker selector, and speakers.

• The impedance protection circuit of these selectors can be manually activated. The protection circuit switch should be on whenever three or more

zones are selected. When the protection switch is on, it can prevent the amplifier from overloading.

• To realize the maximum performance of your amplifier, turn the impedance protection switch off when one or two zones are selected.

Installation

1 Turn off all components, including the amplifier.
2 Route speaker cables from each listening zone to the

speaker selector.

3 Route speaker cables from the amplifier to the speaker

selector.

4 Strip about 3/8" of insulation from each wire, and twist the

exposed strands together to avoid fraying.

5 Press each push terminal in, insert the bare wire, then

release the terminal to secure the cable to the terminal.

Operation

1 Turn on your amplifier or receiver.
2 Press the Zone button that corresponds to activate the

speakers you want to use. For example, press Zone
buttons 1 and 2 to use speakers 1 and 2.

3 Press the Zone button again to deactivate the speakers

you do not want to use.

NOTE: Never place a speaker selector where it is exposed to excessive
moisture or heat. Leave at least 1” (25 mm) of space above the unit for heat
dissipation.
