Pre-installation 

Please read all of these instructions before mounting any products or installing any wires and cables. 

 

AM4.6 

 

IMPORTANT. 

The AM4.6 can be switched between Jamo A-BUS 

or standard A-BUS mode. The Jamo A-BUS position is used with 

the  Jamo  KP4.6  keypad  and  gives  extra  functions. When used 

with other A-BUS keypads it should be set to Standard A-BUS or 

they  will  not  work.  The  switch  is  located  on  the  rear  of  the 

AM4.6. 

 

The  AM4.6  should  be  mounted  on  a  hard  surface.  Do  not 

mount  on  a  carpeted  surface  as  this  may  limit  the  airflow 

through  the  unit.  It  should  be  located  within  10  feet  from  a 

power outlet. 

 

It  should  not  be  located  close  to  any  product  or  installation 

which produces excessive electrical noise as these could inter-

fere with the AM4.6. These could be dimmer racks etc. 

 

 

VM4.6

 

 

Install the VM4.6 within 15 feet from the AM4.6. The same surface instructions as the AM4.6 should be followed as well as the 

consideration of electrical noise sources. 

 

 

Wiring and Cabling

 

 

Install a single-gang 2” or deeper J box or a P ring at each KP4.6 location. If using a J box all knock outs must be removed to 

provide ventilation. 

 

Run a CAT5e cable from the AM4.6 to each KP4.6 location. 

 

Run two speaker wires from the KP4.6 location to the speaker locations for that zone. 

 

For video distribution (optional) run RG6 or other coaxial cable from the VM4.6 to the TV/Monitor location. It can be termi-

nated directly to the TV/Monitor or to a suitable wall plate fitted with a co-axial connector. 

 

CAT5e  cables  should  be  run  through  conduits  whenever  possible,  however  when  not  available  or  practical  special  care 

should be taken not to install the cable close to sharp edges and avoid risk of kinking or trapping. Do not over tighten cable 

ties. Similar precaution should be taken to installation of speaker wires. 

 

Make sure and re-check that the color code on the CAT5e cable connections are correct. 

 

 

KP4.6

 

 

The KP4.6 should be located around 55” off the floor and 10-15” from door frames or wall edges, taking into account the loca-

tion of light switches etc. It should not be located where exposed to direct sunlight as this can interfere with the infra-red 

sensor. 

 

The KP4.6 should be installed in a single-gang 2” or deeper J box or in a P ring. 

 

The CAT5e cable is connected to the KP4.6 at the color coded 8-way screw terminal on the rear. 

 

Speaker wires are connected to screw terminals on the rear of the KP4.6. 

 

See the manual supplied with the KP4.6 for complete installation instructions.
