A-BUS by CHANNEL VISION:
The output terminals of the AB-114 accepts both 16/2
and 16/4 speaker wires.
Before connecting the AB-114, confirm the following:
System Overview
Featuring A-BUS technology, Channel Vision’s new-
est multi-room audio distribution system offers simple
CAT-5 (8 conductor) wiring, IR routing, and remote
• The power supply is not connected to the AB-114.
• The status power supply is not connected.
• The lengths of the CAT-5 wires connecting the AB-
114 and AB-404 modules do not exceed 1000 ft.
(For longer runs over 1000 ft., use multiple AB-404
modules in a cascaded system.

modular components:
The AB-202 is factory shipped with the status port auto-
matically set to power down the AB-114 when using an
auto sensed source. This will preserve the life of the
AB-114 volume control as well as conserve energy. A
12-volt power supply (e.g. model 5018) can be plugged
into the status port of the AB-202 only if the source is
not auto sensed. The AB-202 does not need to be

AB-114 Amplified Keypad
- Provides audio amplification to in-room speakers
- Features IR receiver for control of external equip-
ment, backlit keypad and visual LED indicators for
IR, status, and volume level confirmation, volume
potentiometers for setting maximum volume level
and adjusting left/right balance
Once all connections have been checked, the power
supplies may now be connected to the modules.
CAT-5 Connectivity:
b y
Use a CAT-5 minimum to connect the AB-202 Single
Source Distribution Module’s RJ-45 outputs to the
RJ-45 wallplate (optional). You may also connect the
AB-202 directly to the AB-404 Distribution Module.
The AB-404 then snaps-in conveniently into any
Channel Vision Central structured wiring panels of
your choice (C-0112, C-0119, C-0138, or C-0150).
Operation:
The AB-114 can be powered on/off and volume can be
controlled using the buttons on the unit.
- Single gang box Decora® faceplate installation
- Operable via remote control or local push button
- Input Impedance:
- Power Requirements: +24VDC, 750mA
- Status Input Reqs: +12VDC, 20mA
- CAT-5 Connection: 110 punchdown
- In-Wall Dimensions: 1.75”W x 2.875”H x 1.75”D
- Weight:
28k Ohm minimum line input
If IR emitters have been installed as a part of your A-BUS
system, you may operate sources with their own remote
control (or a universal remote) by aiming it at the IR
window on the AB-114.
Punch down the CAT-5 pairs into the AB-404’s 110
connector inputs using a 110 punch down tool (e.g.
model J-110-Tool). Using the same tool, punch down
the four 110 connector outputs to the 110 connectors
on the back of each AB-114 being installed. The
connectors are color-coded for your convenience.

Local Source:
If you need to connect a local audio source to the A-BUS
system, use the AB-301 to connect the source to the
closest AB-114 installed.
+12VDC
5.2”W x 2.4”H x 1.18”D
Note: The AB-404 is expandable by connecting its
110 connector output to another AB-404 module (see
diagram). However, each module must be powered
individually. The AB-404 can be placed at any
AB-301 Local Input Module (Optional)
- Provides input of an audio source local to the zone
AB-404 Panel Distribution Module
Mounting:
- Distributes power, status, and IR to up to four zones
- Features an output connector for system expansion &
simple 110 punch down connection for easy install
- Power Requirements: +24VDC, 2Amin – 3.2A max
Check all wire connections and test the system perform-
ance before installing the AB-114 into a standard UL/
CSA approved electrical J-Box.
Volume Trim Potentiometer:
Two trim potentiometers (“trim pots”) are located on
the back of the AB-114. Using a small Phillips-head
screwdriver, these trim pots may be manipulated to set
the maximum volume level desired and to adjust the
left /right balance.
Other components:
Remote:
An A-BUS remote may be used to adjust volume and
switch sources by aiming it at an AB-114 keypad.
ABT2454 24VDC Power Supply
