Honeywell AUDZBX75 User manual

Welcome to A-BUS
AUDZBX75
A-BUS Source Input Module
Installation Manual
We hope you enjoy your A-BUS system. This AUDZBX75 Source
Input Module is designed to connect to the MDADZHMS A-BUS
Multi-Source Audio Hub, which is the core of your A-BUS system.
The MDADZHMS Multi-Source Audio Hub will accept up to four
AUDZBX75 Source Input Modules to connect the Hub to a
maximum of four source components. It also repeats infrared (IR)
commands to the source components. The AUDZBX75 Source
Input Module is activated by commands sent from the AUDZ45
A-BUS Multi-Source Volume Control Module. See the Installation
Manual for the MDADZHMS Multi-Source Audio Hub and AUDZ45
Multi-Source Volume Control for full system instructions.

AUDZBX75 A-BUS Source Input Module
Installation – Instal the AUDZBX75 Source Input Module wherever it is desired to locate an audio
source component that will be used as an input to the A-BUS Multi-Source Audio System. Typically,
Source Input Modules are located in the entertainment center, family room, kitchen, master
bedroom, office or utility area or other areas where computers, cable boxes, satellite receivers,
media bridges and/or televisions are located. It is best to locate the actual module in a single-gang
box near, but not directly adjacent to, a power receptacle. The AUDZBX75 Source Input Module
may be located up to 100ft (30m) away from the MDADZHMS Hub. The A-BUS System uses Cat
5/5e wiring following the TIA 568A color code (see A-BUS Wiring Color Code).
Input Level Adjustments – On the back of the AUDZBX75 [7] Source Input Module are Left and Right
Input Level Adjustments. Normally these are set to the full clockwise position. Turn each control
counterclockwise to reduce the input level to match the volume level of the lowest source in the system.
Repeat this procedure for any other sources that are too loud, until all sources are balanced. Some
audio sources such as computer sound cards may have very low output. In these cases it is recom-
mended that the volume be turned up at the output of the source. Check for either a physical volume
control or an IR remote volume control on such devices.
Status Indicator [3] - The green status light indicates when the system is turned on. The system is
activated when the Hub receives a source-select command from any zone. Other zones may be
activated at any time. Individual Volume Control Modules may have to be turned on separately before
sound can be heard.
Infrared Talkback Indicator [3b] - The Red Talkback indicator flashes when an infrared data
command is passing through the Hub.
For use only with models:
MDADZHMS Multi-Source Audio Hub for Honeywell QuickNetwork Panel
HBADZHMS Multi-Source Audio Hub for Honeywell SuperPro Panel

(cont...)
Infrared (IR) Emitter Port [8] – This will accept a standard IR emitter with a 3.5mm 2-cond. mini plug.
This jack is provided for infrared control of the source component. It is a routed output that will only emit
commands from a Volume Control Module in a zone that has selected that source. Some components
have a 2-cond. IR input jack on the back. It is recommended that this direct connection be used.
CAUTION: Do not confuse a serial data port connection with an infrared port.
12v DC Trigger [12] - This is a 12v DC output that turns on when that source is selected. The output
can be used to trigger a relay for power control of the source component.
CAUTION: Do not hook up devices to the Trigger that will exceed 50mA of current draw.
Audio Input [13] - For connection to source component
Loop Out [14] - To loop the same audio component source into a home theater receiver or an amplifier
