Rack Mounting Safety Precautions
Elevated Operating Ambient Temperature: If installed in a closed or multi-
unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack
environment may be greater than room ambient temperature. Therefore,
consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an
environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma)
specified by the manufacturer.
Reduced Airflow: Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such
that the amount of airflow required for safe operation of the equipment
is not compromised.
Mechanical Loading: Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be
such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical
loading.
Circuit Overloading: Consideration should be given to the connection of
the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the
circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring.
Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be
used when addressing this concern.
Reliable Earthing: Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be
maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections
other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g., use of power
strips).
Place on a Table
Four feet are preinstalled for placing the device on a flat surface or
stacking on top of another device.
Connect
Connect the device as called out in the following illustrations. Connect
power last.
CAUTION:
lKeep the device unplugged until all of the input, network, and speaker
wiring is complete.
lCheck the speaker wires for shorts and frayed wiring around the
SPEAKER OUTPUTS connectors.
NOTES:
lThe DM® and LAN ports are for intra-building use only and should not
be connected to lines that run outside of the building in which the unit
is located.
lIf the DMport is connected to a DM switch, the LANport should not
be connected to the local area network.
Additionally, the DM switch can be used to configure the network
settings. Refer to the DigitalMedia™ Design Guide (Doc. 4546)
lEnsure the unit is properly grounded by connecting the chassis
ground lug to an earth ground (building steel).

Connect Audio Sources
The HD-XSPA can receive audio from up to 11 sources.
DigitalMedia Input
Audio from a DigitialMedia source is sent to the HD-XSPAover the DM 1
port.
HDMI Inputs
The HD-XSPAbreaks out the audio from HDMIinputs 2-5.
Digital Audio Inputs
The HD-XSPA receives digital S/PDIF audio from inputs 6 through 8.
Input 6 uses a JIS F05 female (TOSLINK) optical fiber connector while
inputs 7 and 8 use a coaxial RCA connector.
Analog Audio Inputs
The HD-XSPA receives unbalanced analog audio through RCA connectors
on inputs 9 and 10. The HD-XSPA can also receive balanced or unbalanced
audio through a 5-pin terminal block connector on input 11.
Connect Devices
The HD-XSPA can connect to a Crestron control system over
Ethernet.The HD-XSPA also has several device control ports to allow for
programmable control of local AVcomponents and other room devices.
LANPort
Connect the LAN port to a LAN to communicate with a Crestron control
system over Ethernet.
Device Control Ports
RS-232 (COM), infrared (IR), and low-voltage relay (RELAY) ports provide
for control of the display device and AV sources, and may also be used to
control a motorized screen or lift, window treatments, lighting, and other
equipment in the room. Four sensor inputs (SENS) accommodate power
sensors, motion detectors, and other contact closure devices.
Connect Outputs
The HD-XSPA has output connections for a display and speakers, as well
as preamp outputs for a subwoofer and a stereo or mono downmix of
the selected input signal.
HDMI Output
The HD-XSPA has an HDMIoutput for connection to a display.
Speaker Outputs
The SPEAKER OUTPUTS support a variety of speaker configurations up
to 7.1 surround audio.

Subwoofer Output
The HD-XSPA has speaker level and line-level subwoofer outputs. The
speaker level output (SPEAKEROUTPUTS) can be used with a passive
subwoofer while the line-level output (PREAMPOUT SUB) can be used
with an active subwoofer or a separate subwoofer amplifier.
Preamp Out Downmix
The PREAMP OUT DOWNMIX output can be configured to provide an
unbalanced stereo or mono downmix of the selected input signal to feed a
second listening zone or headphone amp through the left and right
preamp outputs.
When configured for stereo operation, the input signal is downmixed to a
stereo signal with left and right channel separation that is available on the
left and right preamp outputs.
When configured for mono operation, the input signal is downmixed to a
mono signal that is available on both the left and right preamp outputs.
Configure
While the HD(I)-XSPA can be used right out of the box, the device can be
further customized with Crestron Toolbox software or the front panel
controls. For details on using Crestron Toolbox software, refer to the
Crestron Toolbox help file. For details on using the front panel controls,
refer to the HD(I)-XSPA Supplemental Guide (Doc. 7448).
