Source Connections
Any source that is desired to be shared throughout the system will connect to one of the 9 A/V Source Inputs.
Nine sources may be "shared" throughout any zone in the entire system. Internal tuners in the CT receiver
products do not utilize an input. Each of the nine shared sources should be connected as follows:
Source Connection
Use the analog audio and composite video from the source.
Composite video and analog audio may be distributed
throughout the system. Digital audio may be passed through
the composite video inputs and outputs See Page 15.
Mount the IR Emitter on the front
panel, in front of the IR receptacle
of the source.

Connection
Plug the analog
audio L&R,
composite
video, and the
IR emitter into
the back panel.
Dedicated source inputs are used for local sources that are dedicated only to that individual zone. Typically
this feature is appropriate for sources that are physically located in the zone, such as DVD players or satellite
boxes in bedrooms or dens. By running well shielded audio and video cable from the local source back to
the CT Receiver, the user may utilize the auto-sense capability, which is built into these inputs. The CT
Receiver will immediately auto-detect the audio or video signal from a Dedicated input and switch that zone
to its dedicated input. By default, this feature is set to on; however it may be turned off to add an additional
manually selectable input for that particular zone. Dedicated source inputs are identified on the back panel
by the zone to which they are associated, i.e. IN A, IN B, etc. When auto-detect is used, the CT Receiver will
store previous state of the zone before the Dedicated input detected a signal. Therefore, when the dedicated
signal is switched off, the zone is returned to its previous state.

Inputs (Back Panel)
Dedicated inputs require an additional run from the zone to the CT Receiver for the audio/video connections.
