INSTALLING THE XOi DIGITAL HOME SYSTEM 1. Prewire The XOi uses Cat-5 cable for keypad control and either two- or four-conductor 16gauge speaker wire. All the wire is homerun from each zone to the XOi. 2. The XOi digital home systems require Cat-5, unshielded, twisted pair (UTP), for communication between the keypads/display pads and the main XOi unit. Each end of the wire is terminated with an RJ45 connector. The XOi system can accommodate 500 total feet of Cat-5 cable for each zone.
Step-by-Step Crimping instructions Step1 Strip a 2 to 3 inches portion of the insulation, exposing the 4 twisted pairs. Step2 Untwist the wires and fan them out individually. Arrange the wires into the correct color scheme as shown in Fig.1 Step3 Flatten the wires in their correct order, and trim them evenly across the top. Most crimp tools have a wire trimmer built-in. It is best to trim the wires to about 1/2 in length.
4. Installing the XOi The XOi is designed to be placed on a shelf or in a component rack. If you are mounting the XOi with other components,you should remove the feet. The audio sources are plugged into the four local source inputs on the back panel of the XOi using stereo RCA cables, Fig.4 Source 1 Tuner 1 Audio Out 5.
6. Keypad XK1 and Zone Setup The Zone number each keypad XK1 belonging to is decided by which RJ45 connector each keypad connected through Cat-5 cable from JK2 of XK1 to XOi. 7. EQ Control The keypads can be used to set specific zone functions. These are for bass and treble EQ response and source grouping. To change bass response, press Mute and Source 2 simultaneously and then release. Press Volume Up/Down keys for desired boost/cut as shown on volume LEDs, Fig.6.
9. Using the Link Jack to create Eight Zones (This is an optional feature) Two XOis can be made to react as one by using the back-panel 3.5mm connection labeled "Link". If a single mono mini-patch cable is plugged into the "Link" jack on both XOis, it links the All Off command to make all eight zones turn off when it is initiated at any of the zone keypads. 10. Mute Input and the AMC PDM1 (Phone-Doorbell-Mute Module) (This is an optional feature) The back panel of the XOi has a 3.
