Control 47C/T features extended bass performance with a wide
120° of coverage that allows fewer speakers to cover a large space.
Ideal for a wide variety of applications, the Control 47C/T is perfect
for settings ranging from restaurant and retail to large casinos and
beyond.
Control 47LP is a low-prole model intended for locations with
limited above-ceiling clearance (only 5.6 inches deep) and is built
on the same platform as the Control 47C/T. The system features
the same great sonic character and wide 120° of coverage.
Control 47HC features a narrow 75° coverage pattern, ideal for
use in highly reverberant spaces and high ceiling applications.
This focused pattern helps minimize sound reecting o of
room surfaces as well as time arrival anomalies from adjacent
loudspeakers, resulting in improved speech intelligibility. The
Control 47HC features the same sonic character the Control 47C/T
and is ideal for busy transit centers, large convention center spaces
or anywhere requiring a narrow coverage ceiling loudspeaker.
Control 42C is an ultra-compact, in-ceiling satellite loudspeaker
designed for use with the Control 40CS/T in-ceiling subwoofer.
When combined with the Control 40CS/T, the Control 42C oers
an extremely natural sounding and powerful subwoofer-satellite
system that is perfect for applications requiring wide bandwidth
and superior sonic performance with minimal visual impact.
Control 40CS/T is a direct radiating, high impact, 8” subwoofer
with a built-in passive crossover network enabling the Control
40CS/T to be used as part of a subwoofer-satellite system. When
combined with the Control 42C, the Control 40CS/T oers an
extremely natural sounding and powerful subwoofer-satellite
system that is perfect for applications requiring wide bandwidth
and superior sonic performance with minimal visual impact. The
Control 40CS/T can also be used via an active crossover design
with the rest of the Control Contractor in-ceiling line for superior
bass response and can be operated from a 70V / 100V distributed
line or in direct 8Ωmode.

The installation of the Control Contractor 40 Series in-
ceiling loudspeakers can be accomplished, if necessary,
without requiring access above the ceiling. Bracketry for
use with either suspended ceilings or sheetrock ceilings is
included (see below for additional details on the Control
42C). The loudspeaker is held securely in place via
mounting ears which lock into place. Inputs are attached
to a removable locking connector (included) which can be
prewired before installing the loudspeaker for ultra-fast
snap-on installation.
The lightweight Control 42C (0.7 kg / 1.6 lbs) includes a
C-ring but does NOT include tile rails. In the event that
tile rails are required, they are available as an optional
accessory (MTC-Rail).
OPTIONAL PRE-INSTALLATION BRACKETS
IN MOST CASES, NO BRACKETS OTHER THAN
THE ONES INCLUDED WITH YOUR SPEAKER ARE
REQUIRED. Everything needed for most installations
of these loudspeakers is provided with your Control
Contractor 40 Series in-ceiling loudspeakers.
Installation into sheet rock (typically gypsum board) can
be facilitated by the use of JBL’s optional preinstallation
brackets before the sheetrock is installed. The
preinstallation bracket provides a bracket to which wiring
can be tied behind the sheetrock and it can function as
a cutout template when many cutouts are to be made
in a production-line style installation. Two types of pre-
installation brackets are available from JBL Professional
as optional accessories:
1) The optional NEW-CONSTRUCTION BRACKETS
(available options and listed below) are made of at sheet
metal, with wings to attach to the building structure. Holes
are drilled for nails or screws at 16 inches (406 mm) and
24 inches (610 mm) on-center. Additional holes can be
drilled by the installer at other spacings up to a maximum
of 24-3/4 inches (630 mm) apart. Sheet rock installs over
the bracket, and the bracket provides a template for blind
cutout of the hole in the sheet rock. The sheet rock is
typically cut with a router-type cutting tool, using the
bracket ring as a cutout guide.
Available New Construction Brackets
MTC-42NC for the Control 42C
MTC-47NC for the Control 47C/T & Control 47LP
MTC-19NC for the Control 47HC & Control 40 CS/T
2) The optional MUD-RING BRACKET (available options
and listed below) contains a circular oset, forming an
edge guide for sheet rock plastering. The bracket has
wings that attach to the building structure. Sheet rock is
typically precut, then the sheet rock hole can be plastered
(or “mudded”) up to the ring to create a seamless cutout.
Available Mud-Ring Brackets
MTC-42MR for the Control 42C
MTC-47MR for the Control 47C/T & Control 47LP
MTC-19MR for the Control 47HC & Control 40 CS/T
USING INCLUDED C-BRACKET WITH SHEETROCK
For many installations, the INCLUDED C-shaped backing
plate provides adequate reinforcement to the ceiling
material, spreading out the clamping force from the tab
clamps.
CUTOUT SIZES
Packaged with the speakers are cardboard cutout templates
for scribing the cutout hole onto your ceiling surface. The
cutout size diameters for the Control Contractor 40 Series
are listed on the following page.

The installation system has been designed so that the
entire installation can be accomplished from beneath the
ceiling, for instances when access above the tile is not
possible or practical. However, in some cases it may be
easier with removable ceiling tiles to access from both the
top and bottom of the ceiling tile during various phases of
the installation.
Step 1 – Cut the Hole. Cutout the hole size either by
tracing the cardboard cutout template or with a circular
cutter set to the cutout sizes listed below and pull the
wiring through the cutout hole.
Control 42C: 4.1 inches (104 mm)
Control 47C/T: 11.1 inches (282 mm)
Control 47LP: 11.1 inches (282 mm)
Control 47HC: 12.1 inches (307 mm)
Control 40CS/T: 12.1 inches (307 mm)
Step 2 – Insert Backing Hardware Through the Hole.
Packaged with the speakers are two types of backing
hardware – a C-shaped backing-plate bracket and two tile
rails (except for the lightweight Control 42C which does
NOT include tile rails).
Suspended Ceilings – Insert the C-plate through the hole
cut in the ceiling tile. Place the C-plate around the hole
with the tabs pointing upwards enabling the C-plate to lie
at on the tile. Insert the tile rails through the cut hole in
the ceiling tile. Snap the two rails into the two tabs in the
C-plate and align the rails so that the ends extend OVER
the T-channel grid on the side of the tile. Secure the rails
onto the C-bracket tabs by inserting a screw through each
tab into the rail. This can all be accomplished from below
the ceiling tile, if necessary.
For safety when installing in suspended ceiling tiles, utilize
all included brackets. Note that the lightweight Control 42C
includes a C-ring only, which may be all that is required for
some applications. If the application calls for tile rails, they
are available separately as part number MTC-RAIL.
Tile Rails: The tile rails are designed to t either standard
24-inch wide tiles or 600-mm wide tiles. The tile rail pieces
do NOT physically attach to the T-grid struts. Instead, the
inverted-V shape at the ends of the rails sit OVER the T-
grid strut. During normal operation, the rails are supported
by the edge of the tile. In the unlikely event that the tile
comes out or falls apart, the ends of the support rails are
designed to catch onto the T-grid, providing secure support
to hold the loudspeaker assembly in place.
Vibration Reduction: These loudspeakers can generate
substantial vibration, which can cause buzzing of the
ceiling materials or structure. Depending on the character
of the ceiling tile and structure, the installer might need to
place neoprene or other dampening material under the tile
rails or the edges of the tiles to address rattles from the
ceiling materials.
Cutout Placement: The tile rails are pre-punched with
attachment holes along their length. Placement is not
limited to the center of the tile as is the case with many
other tile rail support systems.
Non-Suspended Ceiling Types – The C-bracket can be
optionally used by itself to shore up the ceiling material
and to spread out the clamping force from the tab clamps.
Insert the C-plate through the cut hole in the ceiling and
place it on the back side of the hole before inserting the
speaker.
Two Landing Dog-Ears
– All Control 40 Series
Loudspeakers (except the
Control 42C) are equipped
with a two-landing dog ear
suspension system enabling
them to be used with ceiling
tiles that are up to 70 mm
(2.75 inches) thick. If using
Control 40 loudspeakers with
ceiling tiles that are greater
than 54 mm (2.125 inches) thick, start with the dog ear in
the second (top) landing to ensure clearance and ease of
installation.

WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
Control Contractor 40 Series in-ceiling loudspeakers
include Euroblock locking input connectors that allow the
system to be“pre-wired”.
Connecting the Wiring to the Euroblock
-- Connect the wiring to the removable
locking connector that is INCLUDED with
the speaker by stripping the insulation back
about 5 mm (about 3/16 inch), inserting
the bare end of wire into the connector and
screwing down the hold-down screw until
tight using a small atblade screwdriver.
Tighten any unused screws to avoid
vibration. Using terminal block connectors
allows the system to be pre-wired before nal installation
of the product.
When wiring Control Contractor 40 Series
loudspeakers, always use proper electrical wiring
practices in accordance with your area’s building
codes and regulations.
Connecting the Input Terminal Block on Control
Contractor 40 Series Loudspeakers -- The input terminal
cover on all Control Contractor 40 Series are tted with a
conduit connector for securing wiring conduit to and from
the unit. To wire the unit:
1. Loosen the screw on top of the input terminal cover and
then remove (and save) the input terminal cover screw on
the side of the can.
2. Swing open the input terminal cover and remove the
euroblock connector.
3. Insert the bare ends of wire into the Euroblock connector
and secure the wires with the hold-down screws. (see
Connecting the Wiring to the Euroblock)
4. Loosen the conduit
connector on the input
terminal cover and insert
the wired euroblock
connector through
the conduit connector
opening. Connect the
euroblock to the matching
receptacle.
5. Close the input terminal cover and tighten the terminal
cover screws.
6. Allowing sucient strain relief slack for the input wiring
and re-tighten the conduit connector on the terminal
cover.
NOTE: The input terminal
cover on Control Contractor
40 Series loudspeakers
includes a .75 in (19 mm)
knockout for an additional
conduit clamp. This knockout
point can be used in addition
to the conduit connector
located on the top of the can
and is useful for wiring loop-
thru runs or when access is
limited on the top of the can.
Guide to Connection Pins on Control 40 Loudspeakers
-- There are two (2) removable locking input connectors
with two (2) terminals on each for the Control 42C, Control
47C/T, Control 47LP and Control 47HC and six (6) terminals
on the Control 40CS/T. The pin functions are listed on the
label located on the can.
To wire Control 40 Series loudspeakers simply connect
the positive wire to the “+” pin and connect the negative
wire to the “-” pin. The “IN” pins are paralled to the “LOOP
THRU” pins (+ and - respectively) inside the loudspeaker.
The “Loop Thru” pins allow a parallel connection to an
additional loudspeaker.
To select the operating mode or desired output tap of the
loudspeaker, simply rotate the tap selector switch located
on the front of the bae to the desired setting.
Note: Both 70V/(100V) connections and low impedance
connections are made via the same input pins. When
using the transformer tap selections, be sure that the
power amplier is set on 70V/(100V) mode and the leads
feeding the system are connected to 70V/(100V) outputs
on the amplier.

Hookup Schemes for Subsequent Speakers
Using Loop-Through Terminals -- By connecting the wire
pair of a subsequent speakers to the “Loop Thru” on the
Control 40 Series Loudspeakers all subsequent speakers
will be disconnected when this speaker’s connector is
disconnected during troubleshooting. This can be useful
as a way to isolate problems to a section of the distributed
line while leaving the wires attached to the connector.
Hookup Schemes for Subwoofer-Satellite
Systems Using Control 40CS/T & Control 42C
Loudspeakers
The Control 40CS/T subwoofer features a built-in
crossover network designed for use with the Control
42C Ultra-Compact Satellite loudspeakers. Two or four
Control 42C satellite loudspeakers can be used with the
Control 40CS/T to create an extremely natural sounding
and powerful subwoofer-satellite system that is perfect
for applications requiring wide bandwidth and superior
sonic performance with minimal visual impact. Using four
Control 42C satellite loudspeakers with a Control 40CS/
T will oer approximately twice the area coverage than a
system using only two Control 42C satellite loudspeakers.
The Control 40CS/T and Control 42C Sub-Sat system
can be driven either via a 70V/(100V) distributed line or
in low impedance direct mode. Like the rest of the Control
40 Series, 70V/(100V) and low impedance connections
are made via the same input pins on the Control 40CS/T.
The Control 42C Satellites are then connected to satellite
output connectors located on the Control 40CS/T. In low
impedance mode, a two satellite system creates an 8Ω
load on your amplier whereas, a four satellite system
creates a 4Ω load.
Choose whichever of the following hookup patterns best
accommodates your installation. All satellite speakers
must terminate at the Control 40CS/T subwoofer.
Connecting the Control42C Satellite to the
Control 40CS/T Subwoofer
Satellite Home Run to Subwoofer -- There are four
satellite output pins on the Control 40CS/T. If using only
two Control 42C satellites, connect each loudspeaker to
a single output pin as shown in the diagram below; one
Control 42C in “Sat 1” and the second Control 42C to
“Sat 2” ONLY. “Sat 3” and “Sat 4” connectors should not
be used.
If using four Control 42C satellites, connect each
loudspeaker to a single output connector as shown in the
diagram below, one Control 42C in “Sat 1”, the second
Control 42C to “Sat 2”, the third Control 42C to “Sat 3”, the
fourth Control 42C to“Sat 4.”
Use only two or four satellite loudspeakers as described
in the recommended congurations. Failure to do so
may result in uneven sound levels and / or damage to
your sound system.

PAINTING & CONTACTING JBL
PAINTING CONTROL CONTRACTOR 40 SERIES LOUDSPEAKERS
The trim ring and grille of Control Contractor 40 Series
loudspeakers can be painted to match almost any decor. The
speaker’s polystyrene rim accepts almost any type of latex or
oil based paint.
For best results, the following procedure is recommended:
1. Clean the rim and grille with a light solvent such as mineral
spirits by rubbing the item with a lightly dampened cloth. Do
not use abrasives such as sandpaper or steel wool, nor should
you use gasoline, kerosene, acetone, MEK, paint thinner, harsh
detergents or other chemicals. Use of these cleaners may
result in permanent damage to the enclosure.
2. After cleaning, apply two or more thin coats of either latex
or oil-based paints. Latex paint will adhere better if an oil-
based primer is used rst. Application can be made by rolling,
brushing or spraying.
Painting the Speaker Along With the Ceiling – Insert the clear
plastic paint shield into the front of the speaker to mask the
drivers and internal bae, paint the speaker, then remove the
shield.
Painting the Grille – Painting the grille requires removal of
the lightly-glued center logo before spray painting. Leave
the grille backing in place -- it is glued onto the back of the
grille in a fairly strong manner (if you do decide to remove the
backing, the backing material is likely to be destroy and it may
require extra eort to remove the remaining backing material
and glue).
Spray the grille lightly using thinned paint. Make sure the
spray is light enough that when the grille is held up to the
light, you can still see light through the grille holes (which
means that sound can also get through). Spray only the front
of the grille, not the back. The fact that the grille backing picks
up the new color (in addition to the metal of the grille) means
that you can achieve the proper color without a heavy spray
of paint. Do not roll or brush painted because the mesh and/
or backing may become clogged with paint and poor sound
quality may result.
Replace the JBL logo in the center of the grille.
Maintenance -- No maintenance is required when assembled
in accordance with the instructions and wiring guidelines
described in this manual.
