SAFETY - OUTdOOR ANTENNA CONNECTION  
Grounding an Outdoor Antenna  
If the AM/FM tuner is used with an outdoor antenna, the antenna must be  
grounded against static charges and voltage surges. Consult the instructions  
that came with the antenna or contact the antenna manufacturer for proper  
installation instructions. The diagram gives a general depiction of how an  
outdoor antenna should be grounded. For complete guidelines on antenna  
grounding procedures, please consult the National Electrical Code, Section  
810, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984.

INSTALLATION OVERVIEW  
Ventilation Requirements  
Important Considerations  
Important: The MCA-C5 should be situated so that its location or position  
does not interfere with its proper ventilation. Do not block vents above or to  
the sides of the unit, as it requires ventilation for proper operation. Do not  
expose to excessive dust, and do not allow dust to build up on the unit and  
block vent holes. Do not place the MCA-C5 above or below a heat-generating  
component such as an audio amplifier.  
•
Disconnect the power cord before making any connections to the  
controller.  
•
•
Verify that all connections and polarity are correct.  
Keep all power cords away from all signal cables to prevent humming from  
induced noise.  
•
•
•
Choose reliable signal cables and patch cords.  
Be sure to leave at least 2 inches of space to the sides of the unit with open air  
flow above. A single-space rack mount vent or about 1.75 inches must be kept  
clear above and below the unit.  
Label all wires with the room location at both ends of the wire.  
Avoid running speaker wires or signal cables close to house electrical  
wiring for any distance. If you have to run them parallel, make sure to space  
the wires at least two feet from the AC line. If you need to cross an AC line it  
should be at a 90° angle.  
Installation  
The MCA-C5 controller can be rack mounted or placed on a shelf in an  
equipment rack. The controller will occupy two rack spaces with the feet  
removed.  
•
For multiple controllers, the controller ID must be set with the rotary switch  
on the rear panel. Each controller must be set to a unique number before  
powering connected controllers.  
The controller can be installed in an equipment rack using the included rack-  
mount ears and hardware to attach the ears to the controller chassis.  
Up to six controllers may be connected and allow up to 48 zones on the  
system.  
Important: The necessary software (SCS-C5) to program and configure the  
system is available via download from the doc center at www.russound.com.  
With your laptop, you can configure the system and name all of the zones prior  
to connecting with the MCA-C5 controller. See Section on page 27 for items to  
be programmed with the software.  
Electrical Power  
The MCA-C5 operates at 100-120VAC ~60 Hz or 220-240VAC ~50 Hz. Voltage  
is selected by the voltage switch on the rear panel and incorporates the  
appropriate detachable power cord. It is recommended that the MCA-C5 and  
the source equipment be plugged into a dedicated 20-amp circuit. A power  
line conditioner can reduce interference problems caused by noise found in  
some electrical systems.  
The power switch for the unit is on the front panel.  
Do not connect the controller’s main power feed until all other  
connections have been made and verified. Live connection or  
removal of the keypad wiring or other wiring when the system  
is powered can cause communication problems in the network.  
Double-check terminations during each phase of the installation  
to prevent accidental damage. Incorrect wiring is the number one  
cause for non-warranty product damage.

INSTALLATION GUIdE  
Wiring  
Rack Mount Installation  
Route CAT-5e cable between the keypad locations and the controller.  
Terminate all CAT-5e cables with an RJ-45 connector using the T568A wiring  
standard configuration. Utilize a UL/CSA approved electrical box at the keypad  
(double-gang at least 32 cu. in.) and controller locations. Using connector  
specific wall plates at the controller location will better organize all of the  
incoming cables. Route CAT-5e wire from the electrical box to each keypad  
location. Label the wires at both ends with the zone and location.  
To attach the rack ears, locate the five rack mount holes on each side of the  
controller’s chassis. Align the holes in the rack ears with the holes in the chassis.  
Insert and tighten the screws.  
Rack Ear  
Route standard 4 conductor speaker wire to each speaker location. Each  
speaker connection requires a 4-8 ohm load and will provide 40 watts per  
channel. Standard 16-gauge 4-conductor stranded speaker wire can be run up  
to 125 feet; 14-gauge wire can be run up to 250 feet.

CONTROLLER / KEYpAd CONNECTION  
Controller / Keypad Connection  
The MDK-C5 keypad is designed for use with the C-Series controllers, and  
connects to a keypad port near the top left on the rear of the controller. These  
RJ-45 ports support MDK-C5 keypads (and up to two UNO-TS2 touchscreens  
per controller).  
The eight keypad ports correspond to the eight zones supported by the  
MCA-C5. When a connected keypad is powered on, the zone becomes  
active and the corresponding zone LED lights up on the front of the MCA-C5  
controller.  
MDK-C5  
Connections are made using CAT-5e with RJ-45 connectors using T568A wire  
configuration. For a clean installation when wiring from a keypad port use  
a CAT-5e patch cable to connect from the keypad port to a RJ-45 wall plate  
(optional). Using the same T568A RJ-45 wiring configuration, use CAT-5e cable  
from the wall plate to the keypad. Maximum CAT-5e cable length is 250 feet  
between the controller and the keypad. The OS Update jumper should be in  
the RUN position on the lower two pins.  
MDK-C5  
If more keypads are desired for a zone, use an optional SA-ZX3 keypad  
splitter with a Russound 1201A (12VDC 1A) power supply at the controller end.  
All keypads on an SA-ZX3 control the same zone. More detailed information  
regarding SA-ZX3 installation and operation can be found in its installation  
manual.

SpEAKER CONNECTIONS  
Speaker Output Connections  
Strip 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5 cm) off the end of each speaker cable jacket. Then  
strip 1 inch (0.7 cm) of insulation off each wire. Twist the speaker wire strands  
together so there are no strands separated from the bundle.  
CAUTION: Do not connect L- and R- together. Use four-conductor cable  
and wire each ground individually. Do not use a common ground. Shorting  
between terminals will cause damage to the digital amplifier.  
Lift the black lever for each connection until it locks open and insert the  
proper speaker wire, matching channel and polarity for all four wires. Snap  
the lever down. Check to make sure there are no stray strands of wire outside  
the terminals. If there are, remove the wire, twist the strands together, and  
reconnect the wire to the terminal. Insert the modular connector into its  
designated output on the back of the MCA-C5.  
The MCA-C5 supports speaker outputs for zones 1 through 6. These 40 watt  
per channel stereo speaker level outputs have high-current two-channel digital  
amplifiers. Each speaker connection requires a 4 to 8-ohm load.  
The speakers are connected to the MCA-C5 using the supplied modular snap  
speaker connectors. Each of these color coded connectors is designated for  
the speaker set of a particular amplified zone. To avoid confusion, connect one  
zone speaker set at a time starting with Zone 1, taking care to keep zone and  
speaker wire identities straight.  
All 8 zones have RCA line outs. For audio output to zones 7 and 8, use that  
option. These are set as fixed or variable output through SCS-C5 software.

The RNET Link In and Link Out can be used to connect the MCA-C5 to other  
specified Russound RNET-enabled source equipment. The connection is made  
using a CAT-5e patch cable from the Link Out of the controller and into the Link  
In of the RNET-enabled source. Another CAT-5e patch cable can be used to link  
out of that source and link into another RNET-enabled source in the system.  
Use a standard CAT-5e patch cable with an RJ-45 connector on each end.  
On the MCA-C5, sources 1 through 8 have standard stereo audio inputs and  
loop outputs. All source inputs have audio signal sensing. These sources can  
be programmed during zone setup to be global sources, or zones can be  
individually programmed to restrict access to sources.  
There is an internal AM/FM tuner that, if enabled, will occupy source 1. The  
tuner is enabled with the SCS-C5 software. If utilizing the internal tuner, do not  
connect/configure another source on source 1.  
Along with RNET data signals, the RNET Link In and Link Out port passes  
source IR signals. To avoid potential cross-talk between the source-specific IR  
repeating signal lines, the cable can not exceed 18 inches in length.  
Connect each source output using quality RCA signal cables. Connect the Left  
and Right Audio outputs from each source to the corresponding inputs on the  
MCA-C5 controller.  
The buffered loop-through outputs are used to loop to additional controllers  
or other AV switching systems (e.g., home theater receiver).

IR CONNECTIONS  
IR Connections  
Common IR  
Routed IR Outputs  
This output is supported by the MCA-C5 IR engine and supports IR pass-  
through from any of the IR sources or zones. These allow control of any source  
equipment without that source being selected on the keypad. The connection  
for the common IR output is made using an IR emitter with a 3.5mm plug. The  
Russound 845.1 single IR emitter is recommended, or use an IR connecting  
block such as the Russound 857 which allows multiple units to be controlled  
through a common IR output.  
These six routed IR emitter outputs are supported by the MCA-C5 IR engine  
and support IR pass-through. They are also carried by the RNET Link cable to  
additional controllers.  
Attach the end of the IR emitter with the 3.5mm plug to the IR emitter port.  
Remove the adhesive back at the other end of the emitter and attach the  
emitter over the source component’s IR window. When using the IR routed  
outputs, in order to control this source component with IR, the source must be  
selected at the keypad receiving the command.  
The six IR routed outputs are designated to the sources as follows: 1/7, 2/8, 3,  
4, 5, 6. Two outputs share sources; if you are using routed IR for more than six  
sources, use a dual emitter for the two sources that share an IR output.  
Source 1  
Note: Since routed outputs 1 and 2 are used for two sources, do not use the  
same source type for both sources sharing an IR output.

MULTIpLE CONTROLLER INSTALLATION  
Linking Multiple Controllers  
Controller ID Switch Settings  
The RNET Link In and Link Out can be used to connect two or more (up to 6)  
MCA-C5 controllers (does not support CAV6.6, CAM6.6 or CAA66 controllers).  
The connection is made using a CAT-5e patch cable from the Link Out of the  
first controller and into the Link In of the next controller. Along with RNET data  
signals, the RNET Link In and Link Out port passes source IR signals.  
The Controller ID switch is a rotary switch with seven positions. It is used to set  
the controller ID number for multi-controller systems, and to put the MCA-C5  
into Firmware Update mode.  
If two or more MCA-C5 controllers are connected using the RNET Link In and  
Link Out ports, each controller must have a unique controller ID prior to being  
connected through the RNET ports. Set each controller’s ID switch to a unique  
number. Any multi-controller configuration requires that one controller be set  
to controller ID #1. This action must be performed before the system setup  
procedure is completed through SCS-C5 software and before powering up the  
system. The small arrow on the dial should point at the desired setting.  
The CAT-5e patch cable must have an RJ-45 connector on each end with  
T568A wiring configuration. It can not exceed 18 inches (45.7 cm) in length  
to avoid potential cross-talk between the source-specific IR repeating signal  
lines.

TRIGGER CONNECTIONS  
Zone 12VDC Trigger Outputs  
There are eight zone 12VDC Triggers which are located under the routed IR  
outputs. The 3.5mm mini port provides 12VDC 100mA when the corresponding  
zone is turned on and is disengaged when the zone is turned off. The trigger  
can be used to engage any 12VDC trigger device or component that does not  
exceed 100mA, such as the Russound R235LS amplifier. The connections for  
the trigger outputs are made using a two-conductor cable with 3.5mm male  
mini-plug ports at each end. The tip is positive (+) and sleeve is negative (-).

Page Trigger IN  
The page trigger can be used to trigger a page event. The 12VDC trigger input  
overrides signal sensing and selects the audio input from Source 8 (if included  
in page event) and sends it to any zone that does not have page disabled or  
that is not in Do Not Disturb mode. Do not use the page trigger input if there is  
a regular audio source connected to Source 8.

Paging Audio IN/OUT  
The MCA-C5 has a paging audio input and loop output on Source 8 (right  
channel only) that accepts line level audio signals via RCA cables. The paging  
inputs interface with the page output of a telephone system or other peripheral  
device. When a page event is triggered, it interrupts audio outputs for all  
enabled zones. System paging can be disabled permanently in each zone by  
software programming or temporarily with Do Not Disturb. To utilize Source 8  
for paging input, it must be configured as a page source in the SCS-C5 set up.

Home Theater Triggers  
OUT  
The 12VDC 100mA trigger out can be used to engage any 12VDC trigger  
device or component such as the Russound ACT-1 triggered outlet. The  
connections for the trigger out are made using a two-conductor cable with  
3.5mm male mini-plug ports at each end. The tip is positive (+) and the sleeve  
is negative (-).  
These triggers are used to integrate with home theater systems that can  
provide a 12 volt trigger. The MCA-C5 can be used to power manage sources  
that are being shared with the home theater system. For example, the power  
management system will check to see the state of the home theater before  
powering down source gear. Refer to the sample configuration diagram on the  
next page for connections.  
IN  
The output will be activated when the first zone is turned on (system on) and  
is deactivated six minutes after the last zone is turned off (system off), unless  
the home trigger input has 12VDC present.  
This 12VDC Trigger input will have different functionality based on the state  
of the system and the state of the trigger. The connections for the trigger are  
made using a two-conductor cable with 3.5mm male mini-plug. The tip is  
positive (+) and the sleeve is negative (-).  
Tip - Pos (+)

SCS-C5 CONFIGURATION SOFTWARE  
Programmable options with SCS-C5 software  
The necessary software (SCS-C5) to program and configure the system is  
available via download from the Doc Center at www.russound.com. With your  
PC laptop, you can configure the system prior to connecting with the MCA-C5  
controller. The software has a Source Setup Wizard to aid in the setup and basic  
configuration of the sources. Once configured, the system information can be  
saved to a file. Reports can also be generated for a hard copy back up of the  
system configuration.  
Sound Controls - Adjust Bass, Treble, Balance, and Loudness initial settings.  
Fixed / Variable Line Output - Determines if zone preamp output gain is at  
a fixed level or controllable with the zone volume adjustment.  
IR Keycode Learning - allows IR codes to be learned, saved, and managed.  
Items to be programmed with SCS-C5 software include:  
Zone and Source Names - a list of predefined names for both are available  
and will be visible upon keypads and in reports. Custom naming is also  
possible following the character parameters.  
Source Exclusion - defines the set of sources available to each zone.  
Party Mode Participation - whether the zone can participate in Party  
mode.  
Zone and Source Linked Groups - Two groups of each type are allowed per  
controller. Groups share source selection and party mode participation.  
All ON Participation - defines whether or not the zone will respond to the  
All ON command.  
Page Source - Source 8 can be selected as a page source.  
Page Event mode - defines whether a zone will respond to a page event.  
Page Volume - sets the volume of a page event in each zone.  
Power Management of Sources - enabled / disabled per source. If enabled  
the source will turn on when the first zone is turned on or the home  
theater trigger has 12 VDC present. The source will turn off 5 minutes after  
the last zone is turned off, or 5 minutes after input is discontinued from  
the home theater trigger. This feature uses IR commands and audio signal  
sensing to power up sources and initiate audio to confirm source power  
states.  
Internal AM/FM Tuner on Source 1 - If the tuner is utilized, any input via  
the Source 1 input ports on the rear of the unit needs to be disabled.
