voltage, or into an un-switched convenience
outlet on any AMC product.
These inputs are for connection to audio
signal sources such as a CD Player, FM
Tuner, Cassette Tape Recorder, etc..
Connections are made via RCA jacks.
These inputs are for connections to
audio/video products such as VCR's, Laser
Disk Players, Satelite Receivers, etc.. All
audio and video connections are made via
RCA jacks.
These inputs are for connection to each
room infrared receiver. There are three screw
terminals for each of the 4 room inputs.
Wiring of the twin shielded cable used to
connect the remote I/R receiver to these
inputs is as follows:- The shield of the cable
should be connected to the terminal marked
"GND", the red wire connected to the
terminal marked "+12V" and the black wire
connected to the terminal marked "I/P".
Each video input (AV5 through AV8) has a
buffered video output located next to the
video input socket. With 75 ohm termination
on this output, the input/output gain will be
unity. Connections are made via RCA jacks.
Four room outputs for stereo audio and
composite video are provided. The sound
level of each room output is independently
adjusted via the infrared remote control
provided.
The signal sent to the front panel I/R
transmitter is also available via the 1/8", two
terminal, mini jack on the rear panel. The
output from this jack can provide sufficient
current to drive an external LED for situations
where remotely controlled equipment cannot
see the infrared code sent out by the S84d
I/R transmitter. For example, when the
equipment is located in a shelved cupboard.
Connections for this jack are as follows:- The
anode of I/R LED must be connected to the
tip of the jack and the cathode to the sleeve
of the jack.
There are 2 switched convenience AC
outlets for 120V version and only one for
220V/230V/240V versions. These
convenience AC outlets are controlled by the
power ON/OFF button on the remote
control.
There is one un-switched convenience AC
outlet for 120V version and none for
220V/230V/240V versions.
