1 Introduction
The C-Bus Multi Room Audio Matrix Switcher and System Installation Instructions ,
this document, tells you how to install a Multi Room Audio (MRA) system that has a
matrix switcher and at least one connected MRA amplifier. You can have up to 8
amplifiers connected to a matrix switcher and up to 3 matrix switchers on a C-Bus
network. If you are installing MRA amplifiers in a standalone layout (without a matrix
switcher), refer to the documents listed in Related Product Information, Section 1.4.
Read the safety information before you begin. After completing the hardware
installation tasks, you must program the MRA Matrix Switcher and MRA amplifiers
using the configuration software. Follow the instructions in the MRA Application
