ZONEMIX4 Zone Controller Instructions
INTRODUCTION
The ZONEMIX accessory ports allow for the connection of wall panels, paging stations and audio input sources. Please follow the guide below to set up your system.
Please note that accessory port local audio input channels are locked to the corresponding output zone and only one can be used per zone. E.g. Accessory port 1 local input connects to Zone 1.
However, multiple wall panels and paging stations can be connected on the same accessory port.
STEP 1: DECIDE PORT WIRING LAYOUT
STEP 2: CONFIRM YOU DO NOT EXCEED THE FOLLOWING LIMITS
The maximum distances quoted in the table are due to DC current limitations.
The paging stations and wall panels can be locally powered to increase the cable length to a maximum of 500m. Please read the following additional document: Advanced accessory port wiring guide.
STEP 3: ACCESSORY PORT WIRING
Wire the ZONEMIX and ZMPS paging stations as per the images below.
- Category 5, 5e and 6 cabling supported.
- T-568A wiring recommended. However, T-568B also supported.
Wire the wall panels as per the images below.
- Category 5, 5e and 6 cabling supported.
- T-568A wiring recommended. However, T-568B also supported.
STEP 4: PORT TERMINATION – DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP
The ZONEMIX uses the RS485 standard to communicate to wall panels and paging stations.
RS485 requires that each end of the cable run is terminated to prevent signal corruption due to signal reflections in the cable.
The Accessory Ports are grouped in Pairs. 1+2, 3+4, 5+6, 7+8. You must terminate the ZONEMIX and Accessories based on which ports you use.
STEP 5: WP4R, WP10 GPO WIRING (OPTIONAL)
The WP4R and WP10 both have 3 general purpose outputs which can be controlled from the wall panel buttons to trigger external devices such as projectors.
