The i500 is a multi-room audio system for listeners to enjoy music throughout the entire home
by integrating the sound into the home’s fixtures. Thanks to its built-in ceiling speakers, the
i500 does away with the need for portable MP3 devices or individual sound systems in each
room. The Series is also equipped with intercom features for room-to-room communication,
electronic baby monitors, etc.
Some of the i500 Series features:
Enjoy music throughout the entire house
Access different music channels, including a disc player and an iPod docking station
with full control allowing the user to navigate throughout a full collection of music
Wireless Remote Control Unit
The i500 Series does not require hook-up from a dedicated computer. No technical computer
skills are required to fully enjoy all the features equipped to the system.
With the i500 Series it is possible to distribute different music channels to as many as 32
separate rooms from a Master Unit.
The Master Unit (ref. 51121) is equipped with the basic features:
FM tuner with built-in RDS and RF
75 ohm coaxial connectors for
antenna
CD/DVD disc players able to
“reproduce” audio CD, CD-MP3 and
DVD-MP3
connection to Universal Dock for
iPod (ref. 52222)
Two RCA inputs for external sound
devices with independent regulator
and level indicator
Data and sound (4 channels)
output line via RJ45 connector
Direct connection to the electrical
power source (110 to 240Vac/35W)
ref.51121
ref.52222
A Main Speaker (ref. 55101) and a Passive Speaker (ref. 55301) are installed in each zone or
room. Flush-mounted in the ceiling, they become integrated into the home without the need for
entertainment centers, counters or any other type of external fixture
A bus-type cable connection is required to communicate the Master Unit with all the Main
Speakers within the system. The wired connection provides optimal sound quality reception,
free of interference and interruptions, thus guaranteeing total privacy from possible intrusions
(involuntary or intentional) from outside the home.
The Main Active Speaker (ref. 55101) integrates the control and sound electronics of each zone
or room and is equipped with the following basic features:

installation. The Remote Control Unit Base (ref. 52221) needs be connected to the mains,
acting as the remote’s platform as well as providing battery charge for the Remote Control Unit:

The i500 Series requires basic pre-installation. To avoid future issues and ensure optimal
system operation, follow these prior recommendations.

Power source wires should be compliant to regulations in force.
It is recommended that the power source to Master Unit (ref. 51121),
Main Speakers (ref. 55101) and Auxiliary Active Speakers (ref. 55201)
be from the same automatic switch in order to facilitate isolation and
disconnection of the sound system independent from the rest of the
home’s electrical consumption. This will also avoid signal reception and
sound interference with other appliances such as extractor fans, air
conditioning, refrigerators, fans and the like (see wiring diagram in
Chapters 3.1, 4.1 and 4.2).

The communication line (ref. 57101) is an 8 wire connecting hose that connects Master Units
(ref. 51121) to all Main Speakers (55101)
To make connection 4 (yellow) use 1mm2cross-section wires. For the remaining connections
use 0.25mm2cross-Section wires. It may be necessary to increase the wire cross-Section in
systems with a large number of units and/or great distances. In this case consult with EIS
Technical Services.
Bus-type communication line distribution is necessary to keep the length of the shunts to each
Main Speaker (“stub”) to the minimum. This is especially important in systems greater than 100
meters and/or ten Main Speakers. In smaller systems star or mixed connections are possible.

It may be necessary to use a Line Reinforcement module (ref. 53002) in some cases. This
module would be pluged in the Main Active Speaker (ref. 55101)
The location of the device is very important:
In a bus-type system it should be installed in one or both ends of the system (see the
figure)
In star or mixed type systems look for the longest straight path between two points and
install the device on one or both ends of the system.

Installation of the 75 ohm FM antenna must be according to adequate techniques of installation
and signal distribution for antennas:
Ensure that the FM band amplifier is in the header of the antenna installation
The installation should include as many distributors as necessary to reach all antenna
feeds in the Master Unit and Main Speakers.
Because RDS information reception is more demanding in terms of signal/noise proportion than
a simple FM signal, in some areas where signal reception is not optimal it may not be possible
to receive RDS information. Also not all stations broadcast RDS information so the RDS
function may not always be available.
In areas of very strong FM signal reception the antenna may be replaced by a simple 76cm long
wire inserted into the nucleus of the ANT connector. In this event the wire should be placed as
far away as possible from sources of electromagnetic interference such as motors, contact
units, relays, fluorescents, halogens, and the like.

The entire system is solely and uniquely operated by using the 51121 Remote Control Units
installed in each of the zones or rooms included in the system.
It is VERY IMPORTANT to carefully choose the location AND ORIENTATION of the Main
Speaker when planning the pre-installation.

The Master Unit (ref. 51121) is connected to the communication line by means of a Line
Connector module (ref. 573x1). The cable supplied with the Master Unit must be specifically
used for this connection.
The Line Connector module is available in several colours and can be connected to leading
market switch brands by using the adapters listed in the EIS catalog (BJC, Jung, Legrand,
Niessen, Schneider, Simón, bTicino, ...).
Connection to the power supply is made with the cable supplied with Master Unit (see
installation recommendations in Chapter 2.1).
The Master Unit has a 75 ohm antenna input for FM tuner which is built-in (see Chapter 2.3).

To access music stored in an iPod, the Master Unit (ref. 51121) is equipped with a back panel
connection to the Universal Dock for iPod (ref. 52222). The connection is only available with
this unit and should not used for any other purpose.

The maximum allowable length for this connection depends on the external devices that supply
the signal (consult the manufacturer’s technical specifications). The length tends to vary
between 1 and 10m. The input signal level can be adjusted using a potentiometer together with
a LED.

There are three alternatives for connecting an external sound source to the Master Unit:
(1) Preferably use the music system line out as an external sound source. This output
ensures a constant signal which is independent of the system’s volume control.

(3) The headphone output can be used in systems with no LINE OUT or REC OUT (such
as walkman, compact stereos, MP3 players …). This output is regulated by the
system’s volume output and must therefore be adjusted with the level potentiometer on
the 51121 Master Unit to achieve the ideal signal level.
