NXC-VOL4 
Volume Card, 4 Channels
NetLinx Control Cards and NetModules
NetLinx Control Cards can be installed in either the NXF CardFrame, NI-4000, or 
NetModules. This document provides basic specifications and wiring information 
for the NetLinx Control cards. For detailed information on the cards, refer to the 
NetLinx CardFrame, Control Cards, and NetModules Instruction Manual found 
on-line at www.amx.com.
NXC-VOL4 Volume Control Card
The NXC-VOL4 Volume Control Card provides four discrete volume control 
channels with LED feedback. The volume control channels can be programmed 
for mono or stereo operation, and balanced or unbalanced audio connections. 
It supports programmable audio levels, audio mute, variable ramp speeds and 
preset levels. Use the on-board jumpers to set the gain/attenuation (Unity, Pro 
level (+4dBu) to Consumer level (-10dBu) conversion, or Consumer level to Pro 
level on each channel).

NXC-VOL4 Connections/Wiring:
The NXC-VOL4 card contains four audio volume control channels. Each line-
level channel is isolated from system ground and can be configured for balanced 
or unbalanced line operation. It supports programmable audio levels, audio 
mute, variable ramp speeds, and preset levels. Each audio channel's input to 
output gain ratio is adjustable via the on-board jumpers shown below.
