1 Welcome
Thank you for purchasing the Crown
R.S.V.P. (Remote Switching Voltage
Provider) accessory module, de-
signed for use with Crown’s CT-10
series amplifiers. The R.S.V.P. takes
advantage of Crown’s CT-10 series’
soft-start feature, eliminating the
need for expensive sequencing
equipment or complicated startup
routines.
Using Crown’s R.S.V.P. module, you
can control the power-up/power-
down function of your CT-10 series
amplifier from across the room—or
across the stadium. Each R.S.V.P.
unit controls 21 amplifier remote
jacks. That’s enough to control a 6-
foot (1.83 meter) rack of amplifiers
and still have one jack left over to
chaintoanother R.S.V.P. Unitsarein-
dividually powered, allowing you to
daisy-chain any number of R.S.V.P. s
for remote control of an unlimited
number of amplifiers.
Power-up/power-down can be con-
trolled using an auxiliary device
(such as an IQ System ) via the aux
port, or through the use of a pair of
momentary switches. Remote mo-
mentary switches can be connected
inparallel,soyour amps can be con-
trolled from various locations: front of
house, backstage, lighting booth,
and so on. With a maximum switch-
ingdistanceofupto2000feet(609.6
meters) per unit, the R.S.V.P. can
provide on/off capabilities any-
where—oreverywhere—youneed it.

3 Installation
This section will give the necessary
information for installing the R.S.V.P.
into your equipment rack. It will also
provide ways to incorporate the
R.S.V.P. into your system. Please
read this section thoroughly, as the
R.S.V.P. has special cooling and
mounting requirements.
3.1 Cooling
Make sure that the vent holes of
the R.S.V.P. are NOT obstructed.
When mounting the unit in the back
of your rack, avoid blocking air flow
to all of your rack-mounted equip-
ment .
3.2 Mounting
The R.S.V.P. is designed to be
mounted in the REAR of a standard
19-inch (48.3-cm) equipment rack.
Placing it in the back of the rack pro-
vides a more tamper-resistant loca-
tion and allows for easier access to
equipment.Fourkeyholes on the unit
can accomodate up to a #10 screw.
For a more secure installation, four
0.2- inch (0.5-cm) holes are also
available.
.
3.3 Wiring for Amplifiers
Convenient RJ-11 connectors link
the
R.S.V.P. to the remote CT-10 se-
ries amplifiers. Please note that the
RJ-11jacksare polarity sensitive. Pin
4 must be grounded, and Pin 3 must
be supplied with a positive voltage
pull up (positive with respect to
ground). Refer to Figure 3.1 for RJ
jack pin assignments.* The maxi-
mum signal that can be exposed to
theRJ-11jacksis35VDCor25VAC.
(RJ-11connectors areavailablefrom
the Crown Parts Department.)
Figure 3.2 shows one possible sys-
tem configuration using the R.S.V.P.
andarackofCT-10seriesamplifiers.
Runs of less than 30 feet (9.15
meters) between the R.S.V.P. and
the amplifiers are required for the
R.S.V.P. to function properly. Up to
21 CT-10 series amplifiers can be
controlled from a single R.S.V.P.
However, daisy- chaining together
units, as shown in Figure 3.3, can
provide for an unlimited number of
amplifiers in a system.
* The mating connector for the R.S.V.P. RJ-11 jack contains 4 contact pins in a 6-slot
case, as shown. For additional information please contact your local dealer or
Crown Technical Support.

3.4 Daisy-Chaining Multiple
R.S.V.P. Units Together
You’ll need standard cable with RJ-
11 connectors to daisy-chain mul-
tiple
R.S.V.P. units together. (Refer to
Section 3.3 for information on the RJ-
11 connectors.) To slave R.S.V.P.
units, connect one end of the cable
from one of the “To Amplifier Re-
mote” ports on the R.S.V.P. unit
which will be configured as the mas-
terunit.*Connecttheotherendofthe
cable to the “Slave/Aux In” port on
the remote unit. This run can be as
long as 2000 feet (609.6 meters), al-
lowing control of several systems
from one location.
See Figure 3.3 for a sample system
configuration when daisy-chaining
multiple R.S.V.P. s. Figure 3.4 shows
several units in a bus configuration,
while Figure 3.5 shows how to set up
a star configuration using several
R.S.V.P. s.
* Note: The unit selected to be master will be wired to receive the power-up/power-
down signal from momentary switches via the On/Com/Off connectors, or from an
attached IQ System via the Slave/Aux In port.
3.5 Wiring for Remote
Control via the “Slave/Aux
In”Port
In addition to providing for daisy-
chaining of R.S.V.P. units, the “Slave/
Aux In” port also allows for control of
yoursystem to be providedusing an
IQ System via the IQ Aux port (see
Figures 3.6 and 3.7). In fact, the sys-
tem can be controlled by a variety of
auxiliaryunitsaslongastheyprovide
10-35 VDC or 10-25 VAC output.
Simply connect one end of the cable
to an IQ Aux Out port (or other auxil-
iary equipment of your choice). Be
sure to refer to your equipment’s ref-
erence manual for proper wiring in-
structions. Then connect the other
endofthecableto the“Slave/AuxIn”
port on the R.S.V.P. unit. Runs of less
than 2000 feet (609.6 meters) are
recommended to ensure proper
functioning of the R.S.V.P. unit.

paddle switches
3.6 Wiring for Remote Con-
trol using Manual Switching
The R.S.V.P. can also be config-
ured to accommodate manual
switching. In order to do this, you
will need two normally-open mo-
mentary switches (available at
your local electrical supply store).*
One switch will provide the signal
to turn the unit on, while the other
will provide the signal to turn the
unit off. The momentary switches
can be connected in parallel, al-
lowing your amps to be controlled
from various locations: front of
house, backstage, lighting booth,
etc. The momentary switch con-
nects to the R.S.V.P. via the “On/
Com/Off” barrier block input on the
left panel (See Figure 3.8). Runs of
up to 2,000 feet (609.6 meters) can
be handled for connecting to
manual switches. This gives you
control over your system from just
about anywhere in a typical facility.
*Optionally, you may also choose to use a standard “paddle” switch to
control your R.S.V.P. unit.

R.S.V.P. Remote Switching Voltage Provider

4 Operation
The R.S.V.P. lets you control the
power-up/power-down function of
your CT-10 series amplifier from
acrosstheroom—oracrossthesta-
dium. Units are individually pow-
ered, allowing you to daisy-chain
any number of R.S.V.P. s for remote
control of an unlimited number of
amplifiers. Each R.S.V.P. unit con-
trols 21 amplifier remote jacks.
That’s enough to control a 6-foot
(1.83 meter) rack of amplifiers and
still have a jack left over to daisy-
chain to another R.S.V.P.
The power on/off function is con-
trolled by the “Slave/Aux In” port,
or from pairs of normally-open
switches attached to the “On/Com/
Off” barrier block input. To use the
momentary switches, simply press
the on or off switch for the desired
system state.
When using the “Slave/Aux In” port
(such as when using an IQ sys-
tem), the system will automatically
turn on when the specified voltage
is present at the port. When this
happens, the previous system
state is saved and any momentary
switches that are attached be-
come disabled. This will provide
priority access to the Crown IQ
user, preventing accidental shut-
down. If you want off-control via
the IQ System, you will need to
start the IQ System first. If you want
to control the off function via the
momentary switches, you need to
have them turned on prior to turn-
ing on the IQ System. When the
voltage at the “Slave/Aux In” port is
removed, the R.S.V.P. resets to
whatever state it was in prior to
voltage being applied at the
“Slave/Aux In” port.
Make sure that the vent holes of
the R.S.V.P . are NOT obstructed.
When mounting the unit in the
back of your rack, avoid blocking
air flow to any of your rack-
mounted equipment
.
The R.S.V.P. ’s 21 remote amplifier
jacks are protected against
shorted conditions. If a short does
occur, the R.S.V.P. will switch its
output to the off state. To reset the
unit, simply turn it off, wait a few
seconds, and then turn the unit
back on. The
R.S.V.P. will not oper-
ate correctly if the short is still
present.

5 Technical Information
Since the R.S.V.P. is used with
Crown’s CT-10 series of amplifiers,
it is important to note the safety
features present at turn-on with the
CT-10 amplifiers.
All CT-10 series amplifiers have a
four-second turn-on delay. This
prevents dangerous turn-on tran-
sients. The CT-10 series also has
“soft-start” circuitry, which pro-
vides low inrush, and eliminates
the need for power sequencers.
