Rack-Mounting
When rack-mounting the C4630 SE, leave sufficient space between the unit and other components in the rack to allow
proper airflow for ventilation. Sonance recommends using a rack vent spacer above the unit to improve airflow.
Use the included rack-mount adaptors to rack-mount the C4630 SE. Use the four chassis screws already secured to each
side of the C4630 SE to attach the rack adaptors. The C4630 SE chassis has been specially designed to provide
support when using the rack adaptors. The adaptors have also been designed to match the C4630 SE’s front panel for a
clean, professional look.
System Overview
The C4630 SE Home Audio System has features and capabilities that will meet the demands of an extremely wide
variety of applications. It can be a simple background music system, serve as the preamp/controller for a powerful
foreground music system, or it can be integrated as a sub-system in a complex whole-house automation and control
package. Understanding the C4630 SE’s features and capabilities is one of the keys to creating a great system.
In all stages of system design and installation you should plan ahead. Put the entire design down on paper so you
can verify all aspects of it before beginning the installation. With a system that can literally leave holes in the walls if
something hasn’t been properly planned or tested, we recommend setting-up, programming and testing the system’s
components as they will be used before actually performing the installation. This will help insure that the system will work
as designed and that you have all the necessary parts and components on hand prior to beginning the installation.
Always plan for system expansion in terms of both size and flexibility. Anticipating system expansion by carefully
planning what the initial installation is going to be and what the system requirements might be as upgrades are
incorporated can save you time, money and aggravation.
Control Considerations
The C4630 SE has no control or IR capability on its own — it must be used with the C4630 SE Main Keypad or other
available Sonance keypads. External IR receivers must be connected to the C4630 SE for the optional IR remote to
operate. The C4630 SE Main Keypad has a built-in holster that can accommodate a Sonance FSMR1 or MR1 IR receiver
(see page 19). When planning your system be sure to include all of your control needs along with your audio requirements.
Head End Considerations
Reserve as much space as possible for the C4630 SE and source components — an equipment closet with rear access to the
components is ideal. At the very least, reserve enough space in the equipment rack or wall unit to properly install all components,
leaving plenty of room for wire, ventilation, possible future expansion and room to work. (continued on page 11)
