VI. Connecting the IR Emitters
(Fig. 5)
IR commands for the source equipment are transferred
from the Essentia amplifier to the source equipment
via mini IR mouse emitters. Six of these are supplied
with your Essentia System. The emitter is plugged
into the corresponding source IR output on the
Essentia and then placed over the IR receiver window
on the source component. The IR outputs are individu-
ally routed to sources 1-6.
The two SUM outputs will flash any IR command that
is sent from any of the zones. This is used to connect
the NuVo T3 Tuner to the Essentia System or an IR
blaster designed to flash IR commands to a variety of
components. This is done by plugging a single mono
1/8" patch cable into the SUM IR output and into the
Direct IR input on the T3.
VII. Expanding Essentia to 12 Zones
(Fig. 6)
Six additional listening zones can be added to the
Essentia System using the Essentia Expander package.
The expansion is easily done using the Source Link
and Digital Link multi-pin outputs on the Essentia
main amplifier.
The necessary cables for this are supplied with the
Expander package. No other connections are necessary
with the exception of the AC power cord and the addi-
tional speaker terminations. The additional Cat-5
wires for the zones 7-12 plug into the EZ Port.
