1. Linked Controllers Rev 1 MULTIPLE CONTROLLER INSTALLATION Controller ID Switch Settings The Controller ID switch is a rotary switch with seven positions It is used to set the controller ID number for multi controller systems and to put the MCA C5 into Firmware Update mode If two or more MCA C5 controllers are connected using the RNET Link In and Link Out ports each controller must have a unique controller ID prior to being connected through the RNET ports Set each controller s ID switch to a unique number Any multi controller configuration requires that one controller be set to controller ID 1 This action must be performed before the system setup procedure is completed through SCS C5 software and before powering up the system The small arrow on the dial should point at the desired setting FIRMWARE UPDATE Rotate switch to point arrow to the intended position 4 2 3 Controller ID Switch Russound MCA C5 User and Installation Manual 21 TRIGGER CONNECTIONS Zone 12VDC Trigger Outputs There are eight zone 12VDC Triggers which are located under the routed IR outputs The 3 5mm mini port provides 12VDC 100mA when the corresponding zone is turned on and is disengaged when the zone is turned off The trigger can be used to engage any 12VDC trigger device or component that does not exceed 100mA such as the Russound R235LS amplifier
