The Channel Vision A-BUS system
can distribute high-quality audio to every room in your house over
ordinary CAT5 data wire. Power for the entire system is delivered via
the same CAT5 cable so only a single run of CAT5 is required. Each
pair of speakers is powered and controlled from a local wall plate with
a dedicated amplifier for that zone. Volume in that zone can be
controlled manually or by an infrared remote. IR signals are also
routed back to the source components enabling control of sources and
functions from any zone.
AB-202 ... Single source module. 1 per
system. Interfaces sources to the
system. Mount near audio components
(CD player, receiver etc.)
AB-404 ... Distribution module. 1 per
every 4 amplified keypads. All CAT-5
cables terminate here. Also inserts
power. Mount in a structured wire panel
or screw to a wall. Compatible with
TM
panels from Channel Vision Central ,
TM TM TM
OpenHouse , OnQ , or Leviton .
AB-114 amplified keypad ... 1 per
speaker pair. Drives the speakers,
controls volume and relays IR
information. Mount the AB-114 in single
gang low-voltage ring or deep J-box (if
required by code). Blue LEDs show
volume level. Keypad completely mutes
when bottom LED is off. (No amplifier
hiss like some other non-A-BUS
systems.)

In this system
Four rooms listen to the same audio program. Each room
has independent volume controls.
Using the IR option, you can control the components from
any room. You can change the system input from FM to
the CD player, select another satellite radio station, or
pause the CD.
Using the status option, the systems mutes and conserves
power when the receiver is off. When the receiver is
turned back on, all amplified keypads return to the last
volume level.
Single zone system ... This is a single zone system. Even
though there are 4 pairs of speakers being driven, there is only
one source being fed to them at a time. All speakers play the
same audio. Easy to use, single zone systems are ideal for all
public spaces (kitchen, entry, family room, patio). Imagine
walking from room to room and your music follows. If music is
part of your life, the Channel Vision A-BUS system will make
music a part of your house.
Volume indicators... The LEDs indicate the volume level. If
the Status is <off>, the LEDs will be dark. Pressing the
UP/DOWN keys will light the LEDs for a short period to show
the stored volume level.

The first AB-301 is used to input the main audio
source. The second AB-301 is used to input audio
from a paging system. The AB-301 in each room is
used to input audio that will only be heard in that room’s
speakers.
Using the IR option, you can control the components from
any room. You can change the system input from FM to
the CD player, select another satellite radio station, or

The AB-301 is activated by audio. The system mutes and

More about paging
The second AB-301 will interrupt the audio from the
first AB-301 , allowing a second audio source to be
distributed to all of the rooms. This is perfect for phone
systems that provide a line level output for paging.
Independent room inputs
The AB-301 in each individual room will interrupt all audio
sources coming from the main system inputs. This
includes the audio from a paging system. Therefore, if
any of the rooms are using their individual AB-301
they will not hear any announcements until they turn off
the audio form their local source.

Trouble?
1) Be sure you have connected the CAT-5 cable correctly. Note that the
stripe/solid pattern should match the labels on the product. Miss-wiring can
cause distorted sound or prevent the system from working at all!
2) Be sure you have connected the speakers in phase. Follow the label on the
product. Out of phase speakers can rob the system of its bass. Especially when
driving dual-voice-coil speakers.
3) Be sure IR emitters are directly over the IR receiver for all devices you wish to
control.
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules.

control.
