AVC100SL
INTRODUCTION
The AVC100SL is a slider-controlled Amplified Volume Control. It is
identical in operation and specifications to the AVC100R, except a
continuously-variable slider is provided in place of a rotary knob.
Thank you for purchasing an AmplifiedVolume Control (AVC) product
from Sonance.When properly installed in a system,these products will
provide you with years of entertainment pleasure. To obtain the full
potential of your new purchase, please read all instructions before
starting the installation.If you do not have the necessary skills to install
a unit yourself, please contact your authorized Sonance dealer for
installation options. The AVC100R, AVC100SL and AVCDWP2 are UL
Listed and meet CE requirements EN 60065, EN 55013, EN 50082.
Recommended Power Supply
Any UL Listed regulated switching power supply, input rated
90-240Vac, output rated 24Vdc, 2.5A with 2.1mm mini-plug and
marked“Class 2”(see specifications on page 4).
AVC SYSTEM INTERCONNECTION
AVC PRODUCTS
The AVC system can be connected in any of the following ways:
The AVC system is a new, modular approach to amplifying and
distributing audio for residential and commercial applications.
Depending on installation requirements, your AVC system will be
made up of the following products, as shown in Figure 1:
•
•
•
Daisy-chain (series) wiring
Home-run (parallel) wiring
Anycombination of daisy-chain and home-run wiring
Study the examples in Figures 2 through 3 (on the next two pages) to
learn how to interconnect systems using these wiring schemes.
NOTE: Do not connect a signal power cable to the “SPEAKER” output
connector on any AVC100R/SL. Doing so may damage the unit.
System Expansion
There is virtually no limit on how many AVC100R/SLs are
interconnected in a system, as long as the following conditions
are met:
AVCDWP2
AVC100R
AVC100SL
1. One (1) recommended power supply +24Vdc powers up to six (6)
AVC100R/SLs. If additional AVC100R/SLs are required in the
installation,connect one (1) recommended power supply for each
additional group of six (6)AVC100R/SLs (see detail in Figure 2 on
page 2).
Figure 1 - AVC system products
2. One (1) AVCDWP2 Driver Wall Plate can drive a system of up to
100AVC100R/SLs.Beyond that,you will need to divide the system
so it is driven from two or more AVCDWP2s.
WARNING: TO PREVENT THE RISK OF FIRE OR
ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS
APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.
Adjusting System Levels
CAUTION: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK - DO NOT OPEN
The AVCDWP2 Driver Wall Plate includes two trim pots for individual
adjustment of the system’s left and right audio channels (see detail in
Figure 2 on page 2). At the factory, both trim pots have been set for
+10 dB gain on all three sets of outputs. However, the trim pots
provide an adjustment range from OFF (full CCW) to +19 dB
(full CW).
AVC100R
The AVC100R is a rotary-knob Amplified Volume Control. It provides
the equivalent of 30 watts of amplification at the head end of
conventional audio system run over 100 feet of wire.The knob action
continuously varies the volume of the internal amplifier from zero to
maximum volume. The unit provides 4-conductor quick-disconnect
terminals for input, a looping output, and connection to local
speakers. The AVC100R fits into a standard single-gang plaster ring.
Mono Operation
Each AVC100R or AVC100SL is preset at the factory for stereo
operation. However, this can be easily changed to mono operation by
moving an internal jumper (see detail in Figure 3 on page 3). In this
mode, the blended mono signals are routed to both left and
right outputs.
AVCDWP2
Fuse Replacement
Each AVC100R/SL or AVCDWP2 is protected by an internal fuse (see
detail in Figure 3 on page 3). For safety concerns, only replace a fuse
with the same type and rating.
The DWP2 is a Driver Wall Plate for audio distribution of a connected
stereo source and routing of AVC power from a connected
recommended power supply.Theunit fits into a standard single-gang
plaster ring. Three parallel four conductor outputs with quick
disconnect terminals are provided. One DWP2 may be used with up
to 100 AVC100R/SLs via standard 16/4 or 14/4 wire. The DWP2 also
provides installer-adjustable gain controls for setting the maximum
system volume level (see the detail in Figure 2 on the next page).
