Baud Rate JumperThe Suite 8 x 8 leaves the factory with an internal baud rate of 19,200 bps. There is an internal jumperthat allows you to change the baud rate to 1,200 bps if necessary. This jumper is located behind thetoroidal power transformer. The jumper is labeled for 1,200 and 19,200 bps. Simply move the jumper tothe desired 1,200 or 19,200 position. Note: When you set the baud rate internally, make sure that thebaud rate of the control head matches the internal baud rate setting.

Fixed or Variable Output Level JumpersThere are also eight separate fixed or variable jumper settings for each output. This allows you to set theoutput to a fixed level if desired. The factory default setting is variable.

Installation Step 5

Rack Mounting Your ADA Suite 8 x 8The light weight of the Suite 8 x 8 makes it easily hold it in place while you screw it into the rack. Werecommend using nylon shoulder-type washers in front and behind the faceplate to help isolate theunit from the rack to prevent mechanical ground loops. The washers also keep the unit from beingscratched.

Installation Step 6

Analog Audio Input Connections to the Suite 8 x 8Use a standard pair of shielded interconnect cables terminated with RCA plugs on each for each of theeight analog audio components in the system. Connect the left and right audio output of eachcomponent to one of the eight analog inputs of the Suite 8 x 8. NOTE: Do not use directional cableswith the shield lifted at one end. These type of cables can cause ground loops and subsequent 60 Hzhum.

When using ADA MC-5000 components, follow the button format layout for each component. Thestandard input sequence for the MC-5000 is as follows:

Input 1=FM1 Input 2=FM2 Input 3=AM Input 4=CD1Input 5=CD2 Input 6=DSS Input 7=DVD Input 8=AUX

Installation Step 7

Output Connections to a Multichannel Power AmplifierUse a pair of shielded interconnect cables terminated with RCA plugs for each of the eight analogaudio outputs to the power amplifier(s). Connect the left and right audio output of each room the Suite8 x 8 will be controlling to the corresponding input of the power amplifiers.

Depending on the power required for the speakers in your system, we recommend using two ADAPTM-850 eight-channel power amplifiers for use with the Suite 8 x 8. NOTE: DO NOT use directionalcables with the shield lifted at one end.

Installation Step 8

Connecting the Source Trigger to the ACC 48 and IRL-5000Connect a nine-conductor ribbon connector terminated with a male DB-9 connector from the InputVoltage Trigger to both the ACC-48 and the IRL-5000. Please contact ADA if you need a ribbonconnector for the ACC 48 and IRL 500. We will provide the necessary ribbon cable for whateverlength you need.

The input trigger permits the power to be removed from source components when they are not beingused to preserve the life of the device. Whenever you select an input via an ADA keypad or othersoftware command, the Suite 8 x 8 provides a constant +12 DC voltage between ground (Pin 1) andthe corresponding pin on the upper DB-9 connector.

Installation Step 9

Connecting the Output Voltage Trigger to Power AmplifiersIf you are using an ADA amplifier with a DB-9 connector like the PTM-1225, connect a nine-conductorribbon connector from the Output Voltage Trigger output to the power amplifier’s DB-9 trigger connector.If you are using a power amplifier with a trigger connector other than a DB-9, you’ll need to create aspecial triggering cable with a DB-9 on one end and something else (screw terminal, 1/8” mini jack, etc.)on the other. Follow the Suite 8 x 8’s termination diagram below in order to accommodate the amplifier’sdifferent trigger cable.

Please contact ADA if you need a ribbon connector for the ACC 48 and IRL 500. We will provide thenecessary ribbon cable for whatever length you need. Note: The Suite 8 x 8’s triggering circuitry cansupply up to 250 mA of current to trigger on an amplifier(s). Do not exceed this current limit or aninternal fuse may blow.

Installation Step 10

Connecting a Paging Source to the Suite 8 x 8’s Paging InputUse a shielded two-conductor microphone cable to connect the output from your paging source (telephonesystem, paging microphone, etc.) to the Suite 8 x 8. The 600 ohm paging input is terminated on the rearpanel with a removable 5-pin connector and has the following configuration:

Pin 1: ground; Pin 2: Positive (+); Pin 3: Negative (-); Pin 4: -DC (AC) trigger; Pin 5: +DC (AC) trigger

This line level paging input can be connected to the audio output of a telephone systems or some othertype of paging component. We recommend that you use a balanced connection of the paging inputwhenever possible. We recommend using a balanced source whenever possible. If you are using anunbalanced paging source, connect the signal across the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals only.

Installation Step 11

Connecting a Paging Trigger Source to the Paging Input TriggerUse any two-conductor 18-22 AWG wire from the AC or DC source that will activate the pagingtrigger input. The AC/DC triggering source is connected across pins 4 (-) and 5 (+) of the paging inputconnector. If you are connecting an AC source for external page triggering, you can connect the sourcein either direction.

Installation Step 12

Terminating ADA Bus® CablesUse shielded three-conductor 18 AWG wire to make all ADA bus connections for the Suite 8 x 8 andother ADA Bus components. The relatively thick ADA bus wire makes it possible to connect multipleADA components on a single bus over very long wire runs. The pin configuration is as follows:

Pin 1=Ground Pin 2=Feedback Terminal (TX)Pin 3=Control Terminal (RX) Pin 4= +15-24 Vdc supply voltage.

1. Cut a section of shielded three-conductor wire to the desired length for each ADA Bus cable youwant to terminate.

2. Strip the outer insulation to expose the shield and three separate conductors.3. For each of the three conductors in the shielded wire, strip just enough insulation from the wire to

expose 1/4" of bare wire to fit into the connector.4. Unravel the shield and prepare it as a separate conductor by twisting it tightly clockwise.5. Loosen each of the four setscrews on each connector with a small flat blade screwdriver (1/8” wide)

enough to insert the stripped bare speaker wire.6. Before inserting the wire into the connector, twist all its strands tightly to prevent strays that could

cause a short circuit. You may want to “tin” the stripped wire with solder to prevent it from frayingand oxidizing.

7. Follow the pin configuration listed above, but always use the shield for the ground (pin 1).8. Insert the stripped bare wire into the connector and tighten the setscrews firmly into the place with

a small flat blade screwdriver. Do not over tighten.9. Repeat steps 1-8 for each ADA Bus cable in the system.

Installation Step 14

Connecting the Suite 8 x 8 to the WH-2000 Wiring HarnessThe WH-2000 wiring harness provides a central connection point for all ADA Bus components suchas the ISO 232, BRT-1, or CMB-1. There are also eight RJ-45 connectors for ADA keypads. Connectthe ADA Bus output of the Suite 8 x 8 to the input of the WH-2000. It is important to connect theADA Bus output of the Suite 8 x 8 to the first terminal labeled J1 on the WH 2000 to adequatelysupply power to all the ADA Bus components and keypads.

Installation Step 15

Connecting Additional ADA Bus Components to the WH-2000Connect the other ADA Bus components to the ADA Bus connectors 1, 2 and 3. You can also use theloop output of the WH-2000 to another WH-2000 if necessary. However, a single WH-2000 shouldbe enough in most systems. If you do not need an additional WH-2000, you can use the loop outputconnector on the WH-2000 for a fourth ADA Bus component.

Installation Step 16

Interfacing a Computer Based Control System to the ADA BusConnecting the ADA bus to a computer or computer based control system requires the addition of theADA ISO-232 serial communication isolation box. The ISO-232 not only permits trouble free two-way RS-232 communication, but it also provides the necessary isolation and prevents ground loops inthe control system from generating noise in the Suite 8 x 8’s audio circuitry. To connect the ISO-232into the system:

1. Use a standard serial cable to connect the RS-232 serial output DB-9 connector from the computeror computer based control system to the DB-9 connector on the ISO-232. Note that Pin 5 isGround, Pin 2 =Control, and Pin 3 = Feedback.

2. Connect a terminated ADA Bus cable from the ISO-232 to the Suite 8 x 8 or WH 2000 wiringharness.

Installation Step 17

Terminating Cat 5 wire with RJ-45 ConnectorsTerminating Cat 5 cable with RJ-45 connectors can vary depending on the jacks and crimper used,please refer to the instructions that accompany the connectors and crimper you prefer using. Simplyfollow the 568-B Cat 5 wiring diagram below. Do not use crossover type cables when connectingADA keypads.

Installation Step 18

Connecting the ADA Keypads to the WH-2000The MC-5000 and MC-5011 keypads are connected to the WH-2000 wiring harness with Cat 5cable terminated with RJ-45 connectors. This makes it easier to pull wire to all the eight zones of aSuite 8 x 8. Each WH-2000 has eight RJ-45 connectors and four ADA Bus connections. If necessary,WH-2000s can be daisy chained together for additional ADA Bus components and keypads.

Installation Step 19

AC Power ConnectionConnect the detachable IEC-65 AC power cable to the AC receptacle. Once you are sure that thepower switches to the Suite 8 x 8 and power amplifiers are in the off (down) position, Plug the AC cordinto a live AC outlet.

Installation Step 20

Configuring the Suite 8 x 8 with the PCOS Testing ProgramThe Suite 8 x 8 PC control program was developed to help configure and program the Suite 8 x 8system for use with external control components such as ADA keypads as well as third party computercontrol systems from AMX, Vantage, and Crestron. All control functions are emulated in this programincluding source selection, volume, mute, tone controls, and party and page grouping.

Loading the Suite 8 Control Testing ProgramThe Suite 8 Control Tester program is included on a 3.5” floppy disc with your Suite 8 x 8. In order touse the program, you’ll need to load onto your computer’s hard drive. To load the program:

1. Load the 3.5” floppy disc into your computer2. Double click on My Computer on your computer’s desktop3. Double click on the icon for the 3.5” floppy disc4. Drag the Suite 8 x 8 Tester Folder to the desired location anywhere on your C: drive.

Opening the Suite 8 x 8 Tester Program1. Double click on the folder that contains the Suite 8 x 8 Tester.2. Locate the icon for the program file called ADA Suite 8 x 8 Tester.3. Double click on the ADA icon to open the program.

Configuration PageWhen the Suite 8 x 8 tester program is first opened, the main configuration page is displayed. It is herewhere you first set up communication from the PC to the Suite 8 x 8.

Setting Com Port

Insure that the correct COM port is selected for the PC you are using. It will typically be COM 1 if thePC is not communicating properly with the Suite 8 x 8, the program will default to the demo mode. Onthe opening configuration page of the program, select the necessary appropriate COM port.

Setting the Baud Rate

When the correct COM port is selected, the current baud rate (1,200 or 19,200) will be highlighted.While in the configuration page, you can check all the inputs and all the rooms in the Input/Outputsection. You can also check the internal software version with the global version request function.

Page 13: Suite 8 x 8 Multiroom Preamplifier Installation Manual - ADA · Suite 8 x 8 Installation Manual 1 Suite 8 x 8 ... Rack Mounting Your ADA Suite 8 x 8 ... BRT-1 Baud Rate Translator

Suite 8 x 8 Installation Manual

www.ada-usa.com 13

ASCII CommunicationWhen the Suite 8 x 8 control program is communicating properly with the Suite 8 x 8, a correspondingASCII code is displayed. This feedback code appears along the top of the program window in responseto the control code being sent. Further, when a command has been selected, the corresponding controlbutton will change from gray to red.

Room Control PageAfter selecting the Room Control page, you can control all of the audio parameters for each room.Select any of the eight room numbers with the pull-down room window. Once the room is selected,the numeric fields for volume, maximum volume, paging volume, treble and bass will be displayed attheir current level. Other values are also displayed such as all off, room off, or current audio input as wellas turn-on option, stereo-L/R mode, tone control settings on/off, party groupings and page groupings.The image below details the entire Room Control page.

Whenever you select any function in the Room Control Page, the active button will turn red. Toupdate the PC’s display with this room’s status, you will need to press the square red button located inthe lower left-hand corner of the window. If you select the “Request info after selection”, the page willbe updated automatically.

Input Selection

To select a source within each room, you can press the input up or down button, or you can access thesource directly by selecting input buttons 1 through 8.

Volume Control

Volume is controlled in two ways, there is the volume up and down commands that raise and lowervolume levels from 0-40. You can also do a volume direct command that enters a value using the slidercontrol as the slider is released.

Maximum Volume Level

This setting prevents the room’s volume from ever exceeding beyond a preset maximum level. To setthe maximum volume level, simply position the slider to the desired position.

Volume Presets

There are four volume presets. To store a preset for a specific volume level, set the volume to that leveland then press either one of the four volume preset store buttons. To recall a volume preset, press thecorresponding recall button. Volume preset number 1 is recalled when the zone turns on providing thatthe zone is set to turn on with recall 1.

Mute Commands

Again, there are two options for mute. The mute on command engages mute, while the unmutecommand returns sound. Repeated pressing of the toggle button will switch between mute and unmute.

Bass, Mid & Treble Control

Bass, Mid, and Treble are controlled in two ways, there is the standard up and down commands whichwill raise and lower bass, mid and treble levels over a range from -12 dB to +12 dB (-12 dB to + 16 dBfor bass) with 0 dB being flat. Tones levels are stepped numerically in two dB increments. There arealso tone direct commands that you can enter using the slider control.

Loudness & Stereo Enhancement Filters

There are two additional filters associated with tones. The loudness filter engages additional bass. Thestereo enhancement filter opens the stereo imaging of the sound stage.

Tone Presets

There are four tone presets. To store a preset for a specific tone setting, set the tone controls to thedesired levels and then press one of the four tone preset store buttons. To recall a tone preset, press thecorresponding recall button. The Loudness and Stereo Enhancement settings are also be stored intoeach of the four presets when setting tones into preset.

Zone Turn-On Preset

Each room of the Suite 8 x 8 can be set to either turn on to its last used state or to Turn On With Recall1. When recalling with preset 1, Volume Preset 1, Tone Preset 1, and Balance Preset 1 are all recalledas the zone turns on. This provides the ability to store ideal acoustic characteristics when a room is firstturned on. This setting also prevents a room from coming on with inappropriate volume, bass, treble, orbalance settings, even if these settings where used the last time the room was on. Note that the tonecontrols, loudness, stereo enhancement, and mute status are also active when Turn On With Recall 1is chosen.

Balance ControlThe Balance function allows you to change the relative level of each channel toward the left or right upto 40 dB in 1 dB increments, the Equal button centers between right and left channels. There are twobalance presets. To store a balance preset, set the balance control to the desired level and then press oneof the two store buttons. To recall the balance level, press the appropriate Recall button. Balance presetnumber one is recalled when the zone turns on providing the zone is set to turn on to Recall 1.

Mono SelectorBy selecting mono, both right and left channels from the input source are summed together. Thisfeature is useful in rooms where there may be space for only one speaker such as a sauna or shower soyou can still hear both channels of audio from the source.

Party GroupingParty grouping has two useful features. The first is the ability for several zones to turn on to a singlesource with one command. This is useful for entertaining, hence the name “party groups”. You canassign several rooms to any party group number, and call up the grouped rooms to the same source at apreset level and tone setting with a single command. There are a total of four party groups availablewith the Suite 8 x 8.

The second feature of party grouping can be used for multiple rooms that are physically connectedtogether. This is convenient when you’d like to group connected rooms together such as a foyer, livingroom and dining room and be able to turn them all on from any one of the rooms. The MC-5000keypad can be programmed to have the input source be changed in all the rooms in a party group whenyou select any input within the party group.

Page GroupingPage grouping is set and cleared on a per room basis much like party grouping. Paging groups 1-6 areserially controlled. Paging group 7 is non-operational in the Suite 8 x 8. Paging group 8 is triggered viaa low voltage AC or DC source. Simply set the Page Grouping button for each paging group you wantthe room to be included in during a page.

Paging Volume LevelThe volume level for pages is independent of the room’s volume level and is set by the slider control.When a page is engaged, the room ramps to that volume level, the tone controls are set to flat, and thefilters are turned off. When the page is released, the room returns to the previous levels and input. If theroom was off, it will return to the off state. The left and right balance settings will also be equal.

Group 8 Page Release TimeWhen you assign rooms into page group 8, you initiate a page by applying an AC or DC voltage acrosspins 4 and 5 of the paging connector. When the voltage is applied, the source that was playing will beinterrupted as long as the voltage is applied. The Page release time slider lets you keep the pagingcircuit active for a predetermined time even after the voltage is removed. This is handy if your pagingtrigger key comes from a momentary voltage source because the source that was playing would comeback on the instant the voltage is removed. You can set the paging release time to as much as 99seconds after the paging trigger voltage is removed.

Global Room Control PageThe global room control tab features both party group and paging triggers as well as the input level trimcontrols. The red button in the lower right hand corner is the update information request button.

Party ButtonsPressing any of the four Party buttons will engage all the rooms assigned to the group. This featureallows you to turn on several rooms at a preset level and tone settings with the single press of a button.As described earlier, there are four separate party groups that can be engaged.

Input Level Trim AdjustmentThe trim level adjustment can lower the input of level of a source component. This feature allows youto match the levels of all the sources so they have the same apparent loudness. To set the input trim,first determine which source is the softest and then reduce the other louder sources to match thesoftest source. The trim adjustments should only be used to match source levels when first setting upthe Suite 8 x 8. We don’t recommend using this command in a typical command string.

Paging GroupsYou can page the paging groups that you set up in the Room Control page with the six paging groupbuttons. You also have the choice of direct pages to a specific room with the direct page function.

Paging Control PageThe paging control section permits you to simulate paging triggers. The first six triggers are onlycontrolled serially. A control code needs to be issued in order to activate paging triggers 1 through 6.Paging group 8 is the low voltage trigger paging group, hardwired directly to the back of the Suite 8 x8. When engaging any of the paging groups, you can remove a room from being paged by selecting thepage all except the desired room number pull down window. You can also activate paging to a singleroom on this page. For direct paging, select the room number and then press the page button. When apage is activated, you must turn paging off before rooms return to their previous state. Once a page isinitiated, it will remain on until it is turned off again. In the case of trigger 8, the paging turns off whenthe external trigger is removed. If paging is on, there are two ways to turn it off. If a room is beingpaged, selecting an alternate source input will turn the paging off for just that room. You can also resetthe system by turning the master power switch off on the front of the Suite 8 x 8. Note: you can createan all room page by selecting Page room 99.

Installation Step 23

Setting Up MC-5011 Keypads for Use with the Suite 8 x 8The MC-5011 Keypad fits into a single-gang box with a Decora bezel and is wired using standard Cat.5 cable with RJ-45 connectors on each end. It is then connected into one of the eight RJ-45 connectorsin the WH-200 wiring harness. There are eight standard pre-made source formats listed here:

Note: Each source listed above corresponds to Source inputs one through eight on the Suite 8 x 8.Custom formats are also available at an additional charge. However, you are limited to three charactersto describe each source name.

The MC-5011 features a bank of twelve DIP Switches. Switches 1 and 2 determine system model.Switch 3 sets baud rate (1,200,19,200); Switch 4 sets light dimming, Switch 5, 6, and 7 set sourcecontrol, and switches 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 set room number. There are also two removable jumpers onthe MC 5011. One controls the IR receiver and the second jumper turns the LED’s off when thesystem is off. With jumper is set to night mode, when the room is on, the keypad functions as normal:the selected source is red, while all other buttons are green. When the room is off but the system is stillon elsewhere, all buttons are off with the exception of the OFF button, which will glow red, indicatingthe system is still on somewhere. When the system is off, all buttons are off. This chart illustrates thebasic settings of the MC-5011 in a Suite 8 x 8 system: More detailed information about the MC-5011is included with the keypad.

Installation Step 24

Setting Up MC-5000 Keypads for Use with the Suite 8 x 8When using the MC-5000 to control the Suite 8 x 8, you need to configure many of its parametersincluding display, baud rate, and display modes. Once you are in the setup mode, you can easily set allthe keypad’s parameters and also upload most settings to all the MC-5000s in the system from a singlelocation with the upload command.

Another option of configuring all the MC-5000 keypads in system are also available for configurationand upload using the MC-5000 keypad uploader program available at www.ada-usa.com. This programalso allows you to save all the settings on file for later recall.

Entering the MC-5000 Setup Menu-Extra ButtonHold down the EXTRA button for five seconds until the MC-5000’s twelve character display to readsCODE: __ __ __ __. At this point, you can enter one of several codes to configure the MC-5000s.

The following chart below shows the available setup codes and how to change them. Most of the setupparameters only change between two or three states. However, other modes including the installersetup provides more detailed configuration options and allow you to upload the changes to all the MC-5000s in the system. If you have programmed MC-5000 keypads before, the chart is meant to be aquick reference guide. For a detailed flowchart for setting up the MC-5000, refer to Appendix A
