INSTRUCTION/INSTALLATION SHEET
CATEGORY 5 AUDIO KEYPAD VOLUME
CONTROL WITH IR
15-0313 REV. A
This Audio Keypad Volume Control with IR, PN F7394-xx (see Figure 1), is an
integral part
of the Category 5Multi-Room Audio System. It is acomponent which,
when combined with other essential components and your source equipment
(receiver, CD player, etc.), creates aversatile whole-house audio system that will
fill your rooms with high-quality sound for years to come. The Category 5Audio
technology is an innovative method
of providing high quality audio to remote
locations with asingle 8-conductor cable such as Category
5. This audio
technology provides many advantages over other conventional methods
of audio
distribution such as simple, single Category 5wiring scheme, infrared control
of
system components, and system power status.
2. Description
There are two (2) types of Category 5volume controls offered by On-Q Legrand.
The first type is the Amplified Volume Control (PIN F7399-IV, F7399-LA,
or F7399-
WH). It has arotary knob for volume control and offers IR control. The second type
is the Cat 5Audio Keypad Volume Control with IR (PIN F7394-IV, F7394-LA or
F7394-WH). It has push buttons for volume control, audio source selection, and
muting. One volume control should be used for each room you choose to wire. The
volume controls are terminated with Category 5using a110 style punchdown block
located on the rear
of the volume control.
3. Installation

Figure 1
Installation of the Category 5Audio Keypad Volume Control is best accomplished at multiple times during new
construction, at "Rough-in" before the drywall is installed, and at "Trim-out" after the drywall is installed and
painted.
NOTE: Before connecting the volume controls: Make sure the power supply is not connected to the
Category 5 Audio Distribution Module. Make sure the Status input on the Single Source Input is not
connected to power. Install volume controls last so you can make any volume trim adjustments on the
volume control before installing it into the wall. For instructions on pre-wiring and installing other
components of the Category 5 Audio System, please see the Instruction Sheets included with those
components.
NOTE: All wiring should be terminated to the T568A wiring standard as shown in this document. Failure
to follow the correct wiring standard could result in damaged equipment.
A. "Rough-in" steps:
1) Asingle Category 5cable should be run from the enclosure location to asingle gang outlet box or mud
ring at each Volume Control location.
B. "Trim-out" steps:

1) Terminate all volume controls by punching down the prewired Category 5cable using astandard
punch down tool with a110 style blade. Maintain less than y," of untwisting of pairs and make sure
that the 110 blade cuts any excess conductor completely.
NOTE:
By default, the keypad volume control is preset to operate in a Category 5 Audio System where all
other volume controls in the system are keypads as well. The Audio System must be in ALL KEYPAD
mode for WHOLE HOUSE commands to be available. In MIXED systems, the keypad remote controls in
the system will respond to ROOM commands only.
2) If your system will contain amix of both knob style and
keypad style volume controls, you must reconfigure the
keypad volume control by moving the jumper from "All
Keypad" position to the "Mix" position.
a) Locate the volume control mode jumper located on the
circuit board underneath the front plate of the volume
control near the Mute button.
b) Move the jumper from the "All Keypad" position to
the "Mix" position, as shown
in Figure 2.

a) Use the terminal connectors labeled
"Speakers" to connect standard audio
speakers
(8 Ohm only) to the volume
control.
b) Use the terminal connectors labeled
"Line Out" to connect either apowered
subwoofer or an external amplifier to the
volume control. These connection
terminals do not provide any amplification
but the volume control on the keypad
controls the output level of this
connection.

b) With the system on and music playing, use asmall Phillips head screwdriver to adjust both the left
and right potentiometer to the left most position (counter clockwise). The recommended adjustment
method is to turn the volume all the way up and adjust the potentiometer up (clockwise) just before
there is audio distortion.
5) Mounting: check all connections and test the system's operation before installing the volume controls
into the wall. Use the included screws to install the volume control and wallplate into astandard single
gang box.
6) Power Up Self Test: when power is initially applied to the keypad volume control, the following start up
test will occur in the following order. -The blue keypad backlights will blink, then increment and stay on.
-Each Source LED will blink green, incrementing down. -The Mute LED will blink red. -The Status/IR
LED will blink green then red. -Each volume LED will light, first dim, then bright, and stay on,
incrementing up until all are brightly lit. -All LEOs, including the blue backlights, will go out, and the
keypad volume control will
be in the OFF state.
C. Operation:

4) IR RECEPTIONITRANSMISSION: The keypad volume control is capable of receiving aremote IR signal
between 10 KHz and 110 KHz. The remote signal
is passed through the whole audio system. The
keypad volume control will only respond to custom audio command keys using the remote control
specified for the Category 5Audio System. The keypad volume control will pass throughout the system,
but otherwise ignore, all other commands from third party remote controls that may be used to control
other equipment, such areceivers, set top boxes, and video components.
When the custom audio commands from the Category 5Audio System Remote Control,
PN 7427, are
issued
in ROOM mode, only the keypad volume control that receives the command will respond. The
other keypad volume controls
in the system will not respond to ROOM commands. When the custom
audio commands from the Category 5Audio System Remote Control are issued in WHOLE HOUSE
mode, all ofthe keypad volume controls
in the system will respond. The WHOLE HOUSE function will
time out 30 seconds after the last key press, or it can be deactivated by pushing the ROOM command.
Pressing WHOLE HOUSE again before the 30 second time out will refresh the timer.
NOTE:
Prior to using the WHOLE HOUSE commands, it is necessary to 'sync' all the volume
controls by issuing aWHOLE HOUSE OFF command from akeypad volume control that is on.
All the volume controls will then be in sync when aWHOLE HOUSE ON command is issued.
5) STATUSIIR LED-
-Green: source activity -Red: ROOM IR activity -Orange: WHOLE HOUSE activity
6) KEYPAD BRIGHTNESS LEVEL: The level
of brightness is adjusted by pressing the keypad mute and
keypad volume control buttons simultaneously. Pressing the Mute and Volume Up buttons at the same
time increases backlight brightness while pressing the Mute and Volume Down buttons at the same time
decreases backlight brightness.
