NOTE: If more than one ZPAD is to be installed in a single
zone, all wiring should be paralleled and both ZPADS
should be assigned the same Zone ID.

IMPORTANT DESIGN NOTES:
1. The S6 internal amplifier is ALWAYS VARIABLE! Volume commands
are IR controlled. There must be an IR keypad, VIA!, or IR receiver con-
ected to each Zone Input to control Volume.
2. RCA Preouts are provided for subzone applications. Use an external
amplifer and Volume Control for subzones requiring separate Volume
functions. Set preouts to fixed and connect preouts to auxiliary amp.
3. S6 can be controlled from any ELAN keypad, IR receiver, or VIA!
Connecting Multiple Keypads in a Single Zone
IMPORTANT NOTE
VSE's, ZPADS, & IR
Each ZONE KEYPAD INPUT RJ45 jack on the S6
provides 12VDC@300mA. You may choose to
load each INPUT with any combination of ZPADS,
IR Receivers, or VSEs as long as the total current
consumption DOES NOT EXCEED 300mA.
ZPADS (w/ IR Tube) = 65mA
Z025 = 85mA
VSE = 40mA
Additional IR Receivers = 10mA

VSE Connection Diagram: VSE Sense Feature Connections:
NOTE: Calculate your current requirements to ensure reliability! Note: Sense Wire goes to Tip and Ground goes to Sleeve
How the Sense Feature Operates:
When a user turns a zone off by keypad, the VSE's will mute auto-
matically. When a user turns the main zone keypad "on" the VSE's
stay muted with audio playing in the main zone only. The Mute light
on the VSE will illuminate green to indicate that the main zone is
turned "on". The user can touch the VSE or use the included remote
to make audio playback in the subzones.
