• Connect digital inputs as needed on the rear panel of the Remote controller. Eight
digital inputs use +/- pins for each input and are programmable as dry contact only
(circuit is only open or closed to pass current) or 24 Vdc input. Wire gauge used to
connect to the digital inputs should support current and voltage in “Table 5 GENII-RC
Inputs and Outputs” on page 12.
• Connect RS232 DB9 cable to serial console port to use PAGASYS GEN II System
Manager to configure/controller the Remote Controller. Terminate the other end of
the DB9 cable to the System Manager server.
• Connect a CAT5/6 cable to one of two Dante®-enabled RJ45 ports to enable
communications with other networked PAGASYS GEN II equipment and allow the RC
controller to send/receive Dante® digital audio.
• Connect an RJ11 cable to the Fault Relay port on the rear panel of the Remote
Controller. Terminate the RJ11 cable to the monitoring terminal.
• If connecting the Remote Controller to standard PAGASYS GEN II amplifiers, connect
the GENII amplifier RJ45 output ports using CAT5/6 cables to the PAGASYS GEN II
amplifier input ports.
• If deploying the Remote Controller in an A/B redundant configuration, connect the
A/B RJ45 port to the redundant controller A/B port using CAT5/6 cables.
• If using standard PAGASYS GEN II I/O cards, connect a CAT5/6 cable to the Remote
Controller I/O expansion port, connecting the other end of the cable to one of the
RJ45 comm ports on the I/O cards needed.
