System Design
The first step to a good design is to map the system. It is advisable to mark up a copy of the house floor plan with
speaker, keypad, touch panel, volume control, and equipment locations etc. Make sure that all locations are decided
upon before pre-wiring commences so that all necessary wiring and installation hardware is in place. This unit will
be interfacing with other components such as multi-room controllers, source components, communications control-
lers, serial controllers, and user interfaces, so it is essential that ALL system components are accounted for prior to
the pre-wire stage.
Secondly, make a detailed list of all components. Include source equipment, keypads, touch panels, volume con-
trols, amplifiers, and communications gear. Be sure to include necessary electrical boxes, structured wiring enclo-
sures, telephone lines, rough-in brackets, patch cords, power supplies, etc.
