Multiple Sonance Navigator Harbors (fig. 2)
• 18 Rooms (3 Sonance Navigator Harbors)
• 3 Music Sources and 3 Video Sources
• Video Sources routed to 5 zones
• Control Voltages, IR Linking and ALL OFF joined
• Sonance Navigator K1 or K2 keypads in each zone
We recommend a maximum of 3 harbors linked
together. This diagram shows three Harbors connected
together. The buffered audio and video outputs pass the
source signals from Harbor 1 to Harbor 2 and from
Harbor 2 to Harbor 3. The +12VDC outputs, ALL OFF
and Power Linking inputs pass control voltages the
other direction. IR outputs and IR Linking inputs pass
IR signals down the stack in the same fashion.
Single Zone Source Control (fig. 3)
• 6 Rooms
• 6 Music Sources (2 Local Tuner's)
• Local IR Control for Tuner's
• Sonance Navigator K1 or K2 keypads in each zone
Sources can be controlled globally by all zones or by
only a single zone. This diagram makes use of a Sonance
Navigator Harbor with zone IR output controlling two
tuner's. While other zones can select and listen to these
tuner's, only zone five can control the first tuner and
only zone six can control the second tuner.
Video Distribution Techniques (fig. 4)
6 Rooms
• 3 Music Sources and 3 Video Sources
• 3 Video Distribution Techniques
• Sonance Navigator K1 or K2 keypads in each zone
This diagram shows three ways of sending video to a
remote location. The first method is passing composite
video on flexible 75 video cable. Video cable has a
copper braid and stranded copper center conductor,
which allow connectors to be soldered to the cable. Use
belden Cable #9221 or #8281F. Note: CATV Coax
should not be used for this application. CATV Coax has
an aluminum braid, which can’t be soldered and thus
will not provide a good connection. A bad connection
will cause poor reproduction of black in the picture.
Only use coax for video modulated RF signals.
The second method is for video runs of less than 25
feet. A composite to S-video adapter can be used to
distribute a video signal on S-video cable.
The third method is by using an adapter to RF
modulate a composite signal for distribution on CATV
coax cable.
Paging Input (fig. 5)
• 6 Rooms
• 3 Music Sources and 3 Video Sources
• Paging Preamp
• Sonance Navigator K1 keypads in each zone
This diagram shows the Sonance Navigator Harbor in a
paging application. All selected zones will receive a
page, while the program audio in those zones will be
muted. When the microphone key is released, the
program audio will resume. Use the paging Level Control
to adjust the desired page audio level.
6-Zone System with “Party” Capability (fig. 6)
• Harbor in Local and Party Mode
• 6 Rooms, 3 with video
• 6 Sources, 3 with video
• Sonance Navigator K1 or K2 keypads in each Zone.
• Sonance VE1 IR emitter connected from a Common
output to the front panel IR receiver.
This setup will allow for keypads to activate the entire
system with “Party” commands. Use the "Local" IR
commands (no carrier) from the Navigator K2 keypad
to make changes to the local zone. Use the "Party" IR
commands (with carrier) to allow for the
re-transmission of commands into the front panel IR
receiver via a Sonance OptiLinQ E1, E2, VE1 or VE2
emitter connected from a common output on the rear
panel of the Harbor. These commands will then be
distributed to any or all zones depending on the
position of the DIP switches on the IR routing PCB.
Note: The “Local” IR commands that don’t have a
carrier will be rejected by the front panel receiver and
thus will not activate any global functions.
Other IR Input (fig. 7)
• Sonance Navigator K1 Keypad
• Sonance OptiLinQ MR1 Receiver
When using the Sonance Navigator K1 keypad to
control source components with IR commands, it is
also possible to add a standard IR receiver in parallel,
mounted near a television, so that a hand held remote
control can control the same components. This figure
shows a Sonance OptiLinQ MR1 mini receiver in
parallel with the Sonance Navigator K1 keypad. In this
setup, the IR receiver in the keypad should be disabled.
It is also possible to use the WRM1 in place of an IR
keypad with the Sonance Navigator Harbor.
