Zone and Remote Linking
The linking system of the CP66 is intended to be a simple
solution for a number of problems that can come up when
trying to connect multiple rooms or remote controls to-
gether. Have a large room and want to put a volume control
on two opposite walls? Just link the two Zones together (see
Rear Panel
r
)and plug a DR1 into each Zone port. Now
any change on either remote adjusts the volume level for
the entire room and updates both remotes simultaneously.
What if you have three separate rooms with different
EQ requirements, such as Indoor and Outdoor dining
areas, but want to control the source selection with a single
DR3? Link Zones 1 & 2 together along with Zones 2 & 3,
and all three Zones will track each other while maintaining
separate EQ settings.
Each group of linked Zones has the same settings for
Input Source and Output Level. By combining Zones
together in this way, we avoid complicated setup configura-
tions while providing many possibilities for traditional as
well as non-traditional setups.

DR1 Volume Remotes
Digital remotes are a very powerful addition to any system.
Install a DR1 into a party room or dining area up to 1,000
feet (304 meters) away from the CP66, and your customers
can set their own volume level.

DR3 as a Master Remote
A DR3 Master Remote can be placed behind a bar or in
the manager’s office to allow quick and easy access to all
volume controls for every Zone (plug it into the Master
Remote Port).
You can name all of the Zones and Audio Sources with
custom names using the Rane CP66 software and the
name shows up right on the screen of the remote.
Digital remotes fit in a standard U.S. electrical box with
a minimum depth of 2.25" (57 mm), and are available in
Black, White, and Ivory colors. A single RJ-45 terminated
CAT 5e (or better) cable provides both data and power
connections to each remote.
