Total Control HDA-I/O
Owner’s Manual
Overview
URC’s HDA-I/O Stream Receiver/Injector creates or receives HDA audio streams
over the network. This device must be congured b a certified URC integrator to
function as either a Stream Injector or Stream Receiver.
AsaStream Injector, this device distributes any connected audio source (digital or
analog) over the network to any available HDA controlled zone.
AsaStream Receiver, the HDA-I/O connects to our favorite 3rd party audio device
and provides it with access to all HDA audio streams on the network.
HDA products are NOT compatible with URC’s legac Total Control ampliers (DMS).
Features & Benefits:
• Stream Receiver or Stream Injector Capabilities: Congured via URC
software, the HDA-I/O can receive or transmit HDA audio streams over the
local network.
• HDA Audio Streams: As a Stream Injector, this device distributes an
connected audio source to an available HDA controlled audio zone.
• Source Sharing: An zone controlled via an HDA amplier or I/O device has
access to the s stem’s HDA Audio Streams.
• Flexible one Linking: When connected to a 3rd part audio device as a
Stream Receiver, the HDA-I/O can link that 3rd part zone with an other HDA
controlled zone.
• Integrated Audio Sensor: Each available input on the HDA-I/O has built-
in audio sensing capabilities. These sensors can be used to trigger
programmed events or activities.
• one Input Ducking: The HDA-I/O has the abilit to “fade in” an audio
input over the currentl selected audio input. The perfect solution to brie
lower the volume on the current source to make an audio announcement or
doorbell chime.
• Power Configuration Options: The HDA-I/O can be powered via PoE or
the supplied 12VDC adapter.

Network Setup
When using more than one (1) HDA devices, URC’s HDA-SW5 Network Switch is
REQUIRED on the local network.
For more information of the HDA-SW5 Network Switch, please refer to the
HDA-SW5 Owner’s Manual.
Although 3rd Part AVB switches ma be utilized, the are not supported b
URC’s Technical Support team.
Connecting the HDA-I/O to the Network
1. Connect an ethernet cable to an available LAN port on the head-end
network switch.
If no switch is connected to the network then connect the ethernet cable to
an available LAN port on the local router (Luxul preferred).
2. Connect the ethernet cable from the previous step to an available LAN port
on the HDA-SW5.
3. Connect another ethernet cable to an available LAN port on the
HDA-SW5 Network Switch.
4. Connect the ethernet cable from the previous step to the ethernet port
found at the rear of the HDA-IO (page 5).
5. Configure the HDA-IO to a DHCP/MAC reservation within the local router
and program the device into the new or existing Total Control s stem.
Acertified URC integrator is REQUIRED to integrate the HDA-IO into a
new or existing Total Control s stem.
