electrical codes and regulations.
Caution: Do not install these keypads in an electrical junction box
with 110V or higher unless an approved barrier separates the high and
low voltage sections.

Basic System Layout and Pre-Wiring: A stereo amplifier controls
multiple pairs of speakers. Decide where the speakers and volume
controls will be placed in the various rooms. When wiring always leave
multiple pairs of speakers. Decide where the speakers and volume
controls will be placed in the various rooms. When wiring always leave
an extra couple of feet of wire at both ends so installation of the
speakers and volume controls is quick and easy. Up to eight pairs of 8-
ohm speakers can be safely connected to one amplifier.

ohm speakers can be safely connected to one amplifier.
Run a fire-rated two-conductor speaker wire (14-18 gauge wire) from
each speaker to the volume control location in each room. Next, run a
four-conductor speaker wire from the volume control to the amplifier
location. Ideally each run back to the amplifier is a home run, but
wires can be daisy chained from room to room. If you plan to daisy
chain the wiring we suggest using larger 14-gauge wire. If 2 pairs of

Warning: Never attempt to make the final combined speaker
impedance less than 4-ohms as this may cause safety issues.
To tidy up the installation, use Knoll’s WT6 seven position wire
connection strip at the amplifier. Two or more may be required for
some installations.
