ZR 1 Program Select/Level Remote Control
ZR 1 REMOTE INSTALLATION
The CP 52 supports a wired remote for
Zone Level
and
Zone Source
selection. Wire lengths of up to 1000 feet are
possible. A brief list of suitable wire types is provided below
in the section on Wire Types.
The
ZR 1
remote provides Zone Level and Source
Selection, allowing local control from inside the Zone. If only
one of the two controls is used, you may wish to remove the
unused knob and cover the hole with one of the plugs
provided in the kit. If you require one ZR 1 remote to control
more than one unit, simply wire the ports in parallel. This
may be done with the Selector only, Level only or both.
Be sure Power to the CP 52 is
off
while all remote connec-
tions are made. It is important to ensure that the CP 52
Remote Port is not subjected to sustained voltages outside the
range of 0 to 5 volts DC or high levels of static. Inputs are
protected—however, caution is the better part of... you know.
It is a good idea to install the wiring, connect it to the remote
assemblies and then make the final connections at the CP 52.
Do
not
short theVr pin to ground. Although the pin is current
limited, excess heat will be generated in the 5 volt supply if a
short occurs.
Never subject the Vr pin to voltages above 5
volts.
If a ZR 1 remote is not used, any simple switch closure to
GND will work for the D0 and D1 pins. These pins are TTL
compatible (0 to 5 VDC). The logic is inverse Gray Code.
Any ground referenced 5 volt DC control may be used as the
input to Vc. Do
not
ground the Vr pin.

ZR 1 REMOTE MOUNTING
The ZR 1 remote assembly mounts in a standard U.S.
electrical box with a minimum depth of 2.25". Be sure to note
the wire color of each input in order to facilitate correct
wiring to the CP 52. Connect each wire to the 5-pin connector
by fully inserting it in the correct socket and tightening the
screw. Make sure wires are free of nicks and that the cable
jacket is stripped back sufficiently to allow it to lie in the
electrical box with the remote assembly inserted. Use the flat
head #6 screws supplied with the kit to mount the remote
assembly and silk-screened front panel to the electrical box
(see diagram, next page). Note the “UP” arrow screened on
the printed circuit board of the remote (mount it pointing
up
).
The silk-screened front panel metal is painted on both
sides. This allows you to custom silk-screen the panel or add
your own custom decals. Simply install the modified front
panel with your art facing out.
Install each knob so that the line on the knob is properly
aligned with the silk-screening on the front panel of the
remote assembly. Install any Decora plate of your choice. For
a secured installation, you may wish to leave the knobs off
and use a blank Decora plate to cover the remote after
adjustment.
WIRE TYPES
Variations in wire type do not greatly affect the perfor-
mance of the remote controls. However, 22-gauge stranded
wire with a flexible jacket is recommended. You may use 5-
conductor unshielded remote control signal cable for shorter
runs (less than 200 feet) or 4-conductor (2 pair) shielded
remote control signal cable (use the shield as the GND return)
for longer runs (200 to 1000 feet). The type of wire required
is influenced by your installation and local electrical codes.
