INSTALLATION
Model 480-00 Series. These units are intended to be wired to the input terminals of Xantech Connecting
Blocks or other devices, using the supplied 3-terminal block in the remote room location. A 3-conductor
cable (24 gauge up to 200', 22 gauge up to 600', 20 gauge up to 2000', 18 gauge up to 5000'), is run to the
main room. Connections are then made to a Xantech connecting block, power supply and emitters as
shown in the following illustration of a typical
basic system:
While it is possible to make wired connec-
tions without the connecting block, it is not
recommended. The connecting block re-
duces installation time, helps to eliminate
errors, allows easy troubleshooting and per-
mits easy system upgrades later, if needed.
Input connections must be made as illus-
trated. To extend the Emitter wires to a more
distant location, you may splice in 2-conductor wire, in the wire gauges mentioned before, as needed.
Model 480-30 Series. These units, equipped with a 7-foot cable and 3.5 mm stereo type mini plug, are
plugged directly into the "IR RCVR" or "AUX" jack on Xantech Connecting Blocks, such as the CB12, CB20,
789-44, 791-44, etc. The 480-30 should be used in installations where the connecting block is within reach
of the 7-foot cable -- such as when installing the 480-30 on a cabinet where the controlled equipment is
behind closed doors.
A typical system, with a 480-30, 781RG Power
Supply and 282M Emitters plugged into a 791-44
Amplified Connecting Block, is shown in the
diagram to the left.
Mounting: The 480-00 and 480-30 series can be
mounted to any flat surface, using the 3/8" x 1-3/
4" two-sided adhesive tape supplied. Two screws
are included for mounting the 3-terminal block
provided with the 480-00 series. Affix the Mini-
Emitters, such as the 282, 283, 284 and 286
series, to the IR sensor windows of the controlled
equipment in accord with the instructions that
come with them.
480-30 Cable Connections
480-30's may also be used where the 7-foot lead is not long enough. In this case, you would simply cut off
the mini plug, strip the leads and connect them to a 3-terminal block in the same way as you would for the
480-00. To do this, you will need the lead identification as given in the following table and diagram:
