Tango Series Audio Controllers
Connecting Sources (Audio Inputs/Outputs)
Up to eight audio devices can be connected to the Tango Controllers via the Sources INPUT and OUTPUT
RCA connectors on the rear panel (see FIG. 1 on page 1). Industry standard RCA connectors provide line-level
input and output connections for devices such as CD, DSS, MP3 players etc.
Each audio input has a corresponding buffered output used to connect the audio sources to additional Tango
Controllers or to other devices that share the audio sources (FIG. 3).
Connecting IR Outputs
Tango Controllers provide eight 3.5mm mono IR Output jacks for CC-NIRC NetLinx IR Emitter Cables
(supplied). Commands received by the Tango Controller from the Metreau keypads are processed and sent via
the IR Emitter Cable to the controlled device.
CC-NIRC NetLinx IR Emitter Cables attach to the controlled audio device’s IR sensor with double-sided tape
(included), and connect to the Tango Controller via the IR OUTPUT jacks on the rear panel (FIG. 4).
Connecting Zone Outputs
Tango Controllers can be accessed by SWT Metreau keypads (DAS-MET6SRC and DAS-MET-NUM) to
provide basic transport control, source selection and volume up and down, as well as enhanced controls
including direct access capability, favorite’s source selection, zone grouping, alarm clock setting, and Keypad
lockout.
