Figure 2. Overview of SE-1 system expander connections
In determining which jacks to use on the SE-1 system expander, use the following guidelines:
Input connections
• Connect the A/V sources – DVD, DSS, etc. – to the five sets of input jacks on the right side of
the SE-1 system expander connection panel.
• Components that use optical cable must connect to Input 1 or 2. If a component has both
optical and coaxial outputs, connect either of them.
• For digital components that do not require an optical digital jack, use the COAXIALDIGITAL
AUDIO jack.
• Be sure to connect the left and right analog channels of the component to the proper left or
right jacks.
Note: Even if using digital audio, we recommend that you also connect the L/R analog audio.
• For components that have S-Video, use the S-VIDEO jack.•For components that do not have
S-Video, use the COMPOSITE VIDEO jack.

Output connections
Note: OUTPUT 1 and OUTPUT2 jacks are linked internally. They are individually buffered, but
always contain the same signal, both COMPOSITE VIDEO and S-VIDEO.
• Connect the COMPOSITE VIDEO and S-VIDEO outputs to the respective inputs on the TV.
Note: The SE-1 system expander does not convert composite input signals to S-Video. There-
fore, you must connect the composite and the S-Video outputs to the TV if you have composite
and S-Video sources. Or, use a composite video to S-Video converter.
Connecting to the MRI or CD20 music center
Using the music center serial cable:
1. Insert the mini-DIN connector into the jack marked MUSIC CENTER on the SE-1 system
expander.
2. Insert the 3.5 mm connector into the SERIAL DATA jack on the back of the CD20 music center
or MRI. This connection delivers the remote command signals for audio source control.
Connecting to the TA-1 amplifier
1. Using the Bose®source cable:
• Insert one connector into theAMP output jack on the SE-1 system expander.
• Insert the other connector into the Bose source plate.This cable carries the audio/video source
signals from the SE-1 system expander to the source plate. Use Bose system cable to
connect the back of the Bose source plate to the TA-1 amplifier.
2. Using the digital audio patch cable:
• Insert one connector into the COAX DIGITALAUDIO output jack on the SE-1 system expander.
• Insert the other end into RCA jack #1 on the Bose digital source plate. Use Cat-5 cable from the
back of the digital source plate to send the digital audio signal to the TA-1 amplifier.
Connecting the IR sensor
• Insert the connector end into the IR SENSE jack of the SE-1 system expander.
• Decide where to place the IR sensor on or near the TV. Remove the protective strip from its
adhesive surface and affix the sensor to a flat, dry surface. The sensor carries IR signals
issued by the remote control to the SE-1 system expander, which conveys them to the TA-1
amplifier and the CD20 music center or MRI.
Connecting the power supply
1. Insert the small connector end of the power pack cable into the 12VDC power jack on the
SE-1 system expander.
2. Plug the power pack into a nearby wall outlet.The LED on the lower right corner of the SE-1
system expander should light when the power pack is connected to power.

Connecting the SE-1 system expander (continued)
AUX mode
In this recommended mode of operation, for use only with the CD50, the SE-1 system expander
updates the Personal®music center (PMC) display of output levels, including volume, to stay in
sync with the TA-1 amplifier levels. So any system control adjustment, made at either the PMC
or the IR remote control, affects both the PMC and the amplifier.
When the system is not inAUX mode, eventually the PMC and TA-1 settings no longer match.
For example, using the PMC to select and control the CD player causes the volume and other
levels to automatically resume previous settings that are likely to conflict with the TA-1 ampli-fier
settings. Using theAUX mode prevents this out-of-sync situation.
There is one limitation to this mode, however. It does not allow the AUX source on the multi-room
interface (MRI) to serve as audio source for the home theater room. Instead, you must use the
AUX source on the PMC for home theater.
Whenever theAUX source is selected, both the SE-1 system expander and the TA-1 amplifier
recognize it as a TA-1 video input, while the audio (routed through the MRI to theTA-1 amplifier)
is ignored. So when you pressAUX on the PMC orAUX on the IR remote, the TA-1 amplifier will
switch, as needed, to its VIDEOAUDIO input (and the last digital input selected).
In fact, with any source change (setting the SE-1 to video input 2, for example), the SE-1 system
expander automatically changes the CD50 source toAUX, even if the CD50 had been off.
Setting the SE-1 to AUX mode
To set the SE-1 system expander toAUX mode, move theAUX DIP switch to the up position
(towards the volume button).
Note: Also set the TA-1 toAUX mode. To do that, move the EXT DIP switch to the down posi-
tion (towards the wall).
Operation notes:
• The first time you use the system inAUX mode, you must adjust the PMC’s volume level to put
it in sync with the TA-1 volume level. To do this, use the PMC to:
1.Select any source.
2.Lower its volume to 0.
3.Raise the volume to the preferred level.This will synchronize the PMC volume to the TA-1
volume.
• Each time the SE-1 system expander source changes (Video 1 – 5) it causes the CD50 to
select theAUX source. While the audio plugged into theAUX input on the MRI will not play (effec-
tively eliminating an analog input to the home theater room), you have three other inputs. Instead
of receiving audio from the MRI, the TA-1 amplifier automatically selects VIDEOAUDIO and the
lastdigital input.
• TheAUX input is available for use in other rooms in the home. TheAUX source becomes the
Home Theater mode only in the home theater room.
• When you switch from any audio source (CD, FM, Video 1, etc.) toAUX on the PMC, the TA-1
amplifier switches from MUSICAUDIO input to VIDEOAUDIO input. Switching back to an audio
source switches the input back.

Connecting the SE-1 system expander (continued)
Adding a TV on/off sensor
The SE-1 system expander supports a logic-level TV on/off sensing device (not included). When
the logic input is high (4 – 5VDC), the SE-1 system expander sends an ON command to the
TA-1 theater amplifier. When the logic input is low (0 – .5VDC), the SE-1 system expander sends
an OFF command to the TA-1 theater amplifier.
To connect a TV sensing device, wire the ground from the sensor to the sleeve of a 3.5 mm
stereo plug (not included). Wire the logic-level input signal to the ring of the 3.5 mm plug.
Note: The tip of the TV sensor jack contains +5VDC for future use.
In general, you should not use the TV sensing functionality with macros that turn the TV on and
off. If a TV has discrete ON/OFF commands you should use those commands in a macro rather
than a TV sensor.
DIP switch settings
The SE-1 system expander contains a 3-position DIP switch. The first position is not used at this
time, and must be left in the OFF position. Switch 3 should be set according to which music
center is being used, the MRI or CD20 music center.
Switch Label Description
1 MC Must be in the OFF position (closest to edge)
2 AUX ON forAUX mode; OFF for non-AUX mode
3 MRI or CD20 ON for CD20; OFF for MRI
Support for IR control of other rooms or zones
The SE-1 system expander supports IR codes for control of Zone 2 for the CD20 and rooms
B, C, and D for the CD50. The Pronto CCF file named BoseZoneCodes.ccf contains all the
IR codes for the supported functions in these additional rooms or zones. Refer to this file for
information on those functions.
Checking for proper operation
1. Make sure the power LED, located on the lower right of the SE-1 system expander
con-nection panel, lights up. If not, check the connections at both ends of the power pack.
2. Use the SOURCE SELECT button to the left of the OUTPUT jacks to make sure all sources
are connected and operational.
• The LEDs (1 – 5) above the INPUT jacks will light to indicate the selected input source.
3. You may also use the VOLUME up and down buttons to check for audio signals from the
selected input source.
4. Pressing the local push buttons or sending IR commands to the SE-1 system expander
causes it to send commands to the music center or the TA-1 amplifier, causing the
command LED to blink. If the LED blinks for local push buttons but not for IR commands,
check the IR sensor connection and make sure the IR codes you are using are correct.

Troubleshooting
Symptom What to check:
Power LED is
off or dim •Power supply connection.
•Correct power supply: 12VDC, outside negative.
Power LED is
on, but no
source LED is
on
•SOURCE SELECT push button cycles through sources (and causes
command LED to blink).
•VOLUME up/down buttons cause command LED to blink.
Nothing
happens when
source buttons
are pressed on
the IR remote
•Power LED is on.
•IR sensor is connected to IR SENSOR connector.
•IR sensor is in line-of-sight of remote.
•That you are using SE-1 system expander IR codes.
•The IR remote is sending the IR codes.
•The SOURCE SELECT button cycles through sources and the command
LED blinks.
Command LED
blinks, but the
TA-1 theater
amplifier does
not respond to
volume, mute,
etc.
•That you are using TA-1 theater amplifier IR codes.
•White mini-DIN source cable is connected to the AMP connector and the
source plate.
•The connector on the source plate is for the audio-for-video device (SE-1
system expander, not the music center).
•The source plate screw terminals are wired according to the color code.
•The other end of the Bose system cable is wired to the serial port on the TA-
1 amplifier.
•The TA-1 amplifier is powered and receives commands (e.g., test with local
IR commands).
Command LED
blinks, but the
music center
does not
respond to
VIDEO1, Play,
Pause, etc.
•Try cycling power to the music center before you check the following:
- DIP switch is set for the correct type of system: CD20 or MRI.
- That you are using Bose IR codes for the correct music center.
- Black music center cable (3.5mm to mini-DIN) is connected to the MUSIC
CENTER connector on the SE-1 system expander (mini-DIN end) and to
the music center’s SERIAL DATA input (3.5mm end).
- Connectors are fully inserted.
- The music center is powered and receives commands (e.g., from its
RF remote).
Nothing
happens when
the TV sensor
is used
•The TV sensor is wired to the TV SENSE input properly: sensing device to
the TV SENSE input (ring); sensing device ground to the TV SENSE ground
(sleeve).
•The plug on the TV sensor is a stereo plug (tip, ring, and sleeve). A mono
plug (tip and sleeve only) will not work.
•The TV sensor is not an open collector or contact closure. The TV sensor
must generate a 4 – 5VDC signal to trigger the TV SENSE. It must generate
0 – 1VDC to create a TV OFF condition.
•The SE-1 system expander responds to IR commands (blinks Command
LED).
•The Command LED blinks when the TV turns on and off.

19
Troubleshooting (continued)
Symptom What to check:
Command LED
blinks when TV
turns on, but
nothing
happens
•TV ON/OFF commands are sent to the TA-1 amplifier when TV turns on and
off. Check the connections to the TA-1 amplifier.
No video
output •Video source is on, generating video and connected to the video input of the
SE-1 system expander.
•The LED for the source (1 – 5), where the video is connected, is on. Use the
SOURCE SELECT push button to change if necessary.
•The video output is connected to the TV; the TV is on and has selected the
appropriate source.
•The video input on the TV matches the type of source: composite for
composite source, S-Video for S-Video source.
No analog
audio output •The video device is on, is generating audio, and is connected to the audio
input of the SE-1 system expander.
•The LED for the source (1 – 5), where the video is connected, is on. Use the
SOURCE SELECT push button to change if necessary.
•The SE-1 system expander is connected properly to the TA-1 amplifier. The
analog audio output for the TA-1 amplifier is on the AMP connector. The
analog audio L/R RCA outputs are not used to connect to the TA-1 amplifier.
•The TA-1 amplifier is on and the correct analog input is selected (VIDEO
AUDIO).
No digital
audio output •The digital audio source is on and generating audio and is connected to the
digital audio input of the SE-1 system expander (orange connectors or
Toslink).
•Inputs 1 and 2 on the SE-1 system expander do not have both coaxial and
optical input connected – use one or the other, not both.
•The digital audio is PCM or Dolby Digital.
•The cable from the digital source to the SE-1 system expander is 75 Ohm
and less than 25 feet.
•The LED for the source (1 – 5), where the source is connected, is on. Use
the SOURCE SELECT push button to change if necessary.
•The SE-1 system expander is connected properly to the TA-1 amplifier. The
DIGITAL AUDIO output for the TA-1 amplifier is on the orange output
connector.
Using a digital source plate:
- The SE-1 system expander DIGITAL output is connected to jack 1.
- The CAT-5 cable is terminated correctly according to the color code on the
plate and the TA-1 amplifier.
Using an analog source plate:
- The SE-1 system expander DIGITAL output is connected to the RCA jack.
- RG-6 or RG-59 (75 Ohm) coaxial cable is into the source plate F-connector
and the RJ45-to-coax adapter – plug number 1.
