Grand Concerto Back Panel
1. Variable Output: These preamp lineouts are used for sending an audio signal to an external power amplifier. This is useful for
large areas that require additional pairs of speakers. Use the variable output when you want the additional amplifier to be
controlled by the zone’s Control Pad.
2.Fixed Output: These preamp lineouts are used for sending an audio signal to an external power amplifier when additional
speakers are needed. This output is constant, so an amplifier connected to it will not change volume with that zone’s Control
Pad.
3.Source Inputs: The Grand Concerto will accept up to six audio sources. These are connected to the Grand Concerto amplifier
with standard stereo RCA cables.
4.Speaker Output: Six of the Grand Concerto’s eight zones are amplified. These outputs accept 16-gage, two-conductor speaker
wire and provide 40 watts per channel of power.
5.Source Link: This connection is used in conjunction with the Grand Concerto Expander System to create 16 total zones. The
source link cable is supplied with the Expander System.
6.Source Status Inputs: These inputs are currently inactive on the Grand Concerto. They are intended for future use.
7.Zone Trigger Outputs: These 12-volt outputs can be used to trigger an external device, such as an auxiliary power amplifier, for
use in a specific zone.
8.IR Emitter Outputs: IR signals received from the keypads are passed through the IR outputs to the source equipment using the
supplied IR emitters. Outputs 1-6 are routed to the corresponding sources, and the SUM outputs 1 and 2 are common and will
pass all IR signals.
9.SYS. ON: This is a constant 12-volt output for turning on external equipment. There is no voltage output when the zones are
off.
10.EXT. MUTE: This input is designed to temporarily mute any audio playing through the system when the doorbell or phone
rings. This works in conjunction with the NuVo NV-MI1 mute interface accessory. It also acts as a trigger for whole-house
paging through a phone system when set for this function in the Configurator Software.
11.Network Input: This RJ45 connection is the input for all zone information coming from the Grand Concerto Control Pads. The
connection is made using the Network Cable supplied with the package.
12.Digital Link: This connection is used in conjunction with the Grand Concerto Expander System to create 16 total zones. The
Digital Link cable is supplied with the Expander System.
13.RS232: The bidirectional RS232 is a serial communication port that allows the Grand Concerto System to be controlled by an
external home automation device. It is also used for configuration and programming purposes.
14.AC: A detachable power cord connects the system to an external AC power supply.
