Description This kit expands the HAI Hi-Fi Whole Home Audio Distribution System from 4 Zones and 4 Sources to a full 8 Zone, 6 Source system.
1. Remove the faceplate. 2. The insert attaches to the RIM with one latch on the right and one on the left. Using a small-bladed screwdriver, gently depress the latch on one side while lifting up on the insert. Once the latches are released on one side, remove the insert from the other side. 3. Align the latches of the new insert to the openings on the RIM and gently snap into place. 4. Attach the new faceplate.
IR Output Each RIM ships with an IR flasher (62A08-1). The IR flasher is used for sending IR data to the source equipment. When you point your source equipment remote control at the IR receiver in the VSC and send a signal, the IR data is routed to the appropriate RIM (to which the source is connected), which then sends the IR signal through the IR flasher to the source equipment.
Changing the Color of the VSC The color of the VSC may be changed to complement the interior décor. The VSC is supplied with a white faceplate, knob, and insert. Additional colors are available; contact your HAI distributor for more information. Change the color of the RIM as follows: 1. Remove the faceplate. Firmly grasp the knob and pull straight outward until the knob is removed. 2. The insert attaches to the VSC with one latch on the right and one on the left.
Speaker Wiring When running the cables for speakers, use 16-gauge two-conductor or four-conductor (four-conductor stranded is recommended for neater installation) speaker wire. Speaker cable is homerun from the speaker location to the location of the Hi-Fi Main Assembly. The Hi-Fi System is designed to work with one pair of speakers per zone. Terminating Speaker Wires Always observe proper orientation of the positive and negative signal for each speaker connection.
Installing Zone Amplifier Cards Zone Amplifier Cards (ZAC) can be added at any time to increase the total number of zones to eight. To install a Zone Amplifier Card: PLUNGER PLUNGER 1) Power down the Hi-Fi system by unplugging both Power Supply units (if applicable) from the inputs labeled “Power” on the Hi-Fi Main Assemble. 2) Pull upward on each of the 4 plungers until you hear them snap PLUNGER PLUNGER 3) Remove the cover from the Hi-Fi Main Assembly by lifting it away from the Hi-Fi circuit board.
4) Install additional Zone Amplifier Cards in an empty connector (CN5-CN8) by positioning the Zone Amplifier Card directly over the connector and gently but firmly pushing down on both sides of the card until the top and bottom are securely seated into the connector. 5) Replace the cover by pushing down on each of the 4 plungers until you hear them snap. 6) Reconnect each Power Supply.
Powering the Hi-Fi System The Power Supply (HAI Part Number: 62A07-1) powers the Hi-Fi processor and 4 Zone Amplifier Cards. One Power Supply is needed to power Zones 1-4 and a second Power Supply (supplied) is used to power Zones 5-8 (when connected to the Power jack on the right). 1) Insert the connector for the Power Supply into the Power jack marked “PJ1” (jack to the left) under the section labeled “Power Zones 1-4” on the Hi-Fi Main Assembly.
