Precautions

Exposure to extremely high noise levels may cause a permanent hearing loss. Individuals vary considerably to noise induced

hearing loss but nearly everyone will lose some hearing if exposed to sufficiently intense noise for a sufficient time. The U.S.

Government's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has specified the following permissible noise level

exposures:

DURATION PER DAY (HOURS) 8 6 4 3 2 1

SOUND LEVEL (dB) 90 93 95 97 100 103

According to OSHA, any exposure in the above permissible limits could result in some hearing loss.

Introduction

Thank you for purchasing your new Hi-Fi2 by HAI audio distribution system. You are about to enjoy

the freedom and convenience of listening to and sharing music from your stereo, iPod™, satellite radio,

digital cable TV, computer, CD player, or any other music source in any room in your home.

Hi-Fi2 by HAI is an 8-source, 8-zone (expandable to 16 zones) audio distribution system that powers

speakers through digital amplification. Its modular design gives you the flexibility for expansion as

your needs change.

General

Each of the eight possible audio sources is connected directly to Remote Input Modules (RIM) in rooms

that will have music sources that you wish to use. When you plug any music source into a RIM using a

standard stereo input jack, it can be shared with any room that has a Volume-Source Control (VSC).

Additionally, each RIM features a routed IR emitter jack and includes a flasher to allow you to use the

remote control of your source equipment in any room that has a VSC.

The audio sources can be selected and controlled by any VSC. The VSC provides the ability to change

the power state, volume setting, balance setting, treble setting, bass setting, and loudness setting for the

respective audio zone. The brightness of the display and the initial volume setting and paging volume

settings for each audio zone can also be configured.

The VSC allows you to view metadata feedback (album, artist, and track) and allows for basic transport

controls (play, pause, next track, and previous track) for supported sources. Additionally, each VSC

includes an IR receiver that allows you to remotely control the Hi-Fi2 system and/or audio sources from

any audio zone in the house.

You can also use the VSC to control advanced features of Hi-Fi2. Using the Advanced Menu, you can

set the connection status and source gain for each source, whether IR is enabled or disabled, and whether

IR is passed to the connected audio sources.

Furthermore, Hi-Fi2 by HAI can plug and play with HAI Omni and Lumina home control systems.

When connected, the HAI controller can set the source and volume of each audio zone for parties,

watching TV, morning news, or any other activity. Any changes made to the power state, volume, or

source at a VSC will be updated on the HAI controller and displayed on an HAI OmniTouch

touchscreen.

Operation

When an audio zone is turned on and the Volume-Source Control (VSC) in that zone is idle, the display

will show the current source in the respective audio zone on the top line. When connected to a

supported source that provides metadata, the bottom line will display the artist, album, and/or track.

Kitchen iPod

Zone On/Off

The Power button is used to turn the respective audio zone on and off. When the audio zone is off, the

display on the respective VSC is blank. To turn the audio zone on, press the Power button. The display

will show the current audio source and the volume will be set to the configured Initial Volume for the

respective audio zone. To turn the audio zone off, press the Power button.

All Zones Off

If you wish to turn all audio zones off, press the Power button and hold it for 2 seconds. All audio

zones on the Hi-Fi2 system are turned off.

Setting Zone Volume

Press the Volume +button to increase the volume in the respective audio zone. Press the

Volume –button to decrease the volume in the respective audio zone. While the volume is being

adjusted, the display on the VSC will show a volume bar with the current volume represented on the bar.

If the audio zone is currently muted, adjusting the volume using either the Volume +or Volume -

buttons turns mute off and audio is heard at the current volume setting.

Source Selection

To change the audio source in a zone, press src (source) button to cycle through all available audio

sources. Each time the button is pressed and then released, the next available source is displayed. If a

particular source is not connected, it will not be displayed and you will not have the option of

connecting the VSC to that source. Once the last source is reached, pressing again will bring you back

to the first source connected to the system.

Transport Controls

The VSC allows you to issue basic transport control commands (play, pause, next track, and previous

track) on supported audio sources. When connected to a supported audio source, you can issue these

transport control commands using button combinations. Pressing and holding the src button acts as a

function key that transforms the functions of the +, –, and Power buttons, as follows:

Press and hold the src button, then press: + button play the next track

Press and hold the src button, then press: – button play the previous track

Press and hold the src button, then press: Power button toggle between play and pause

Setting the Audio Zone

The Select Zone setting is used to logically connect the VSC to an audio zone on the Hi-Fi2 system. To

select the audio zone that the VSC will control, press the +button to increase the zone number and press

the –button to decrease the zone number. The select zone setting can range from 1 to 16.

You may have more than one VSC configured to a given audio zone. This is useful if you have a large

room and would like multiple VSC keypads in that room to control the audio zone. When multiple VSC

keypads are configured to an audio zone, all VSC keypads will mimic one another.

Source Connection Status Settings

The Source Connection Status settings allow you to add and remove sources from the source cycle when

scrolling through available sources. When the connection status for a source is set to disabled, it will not

show up in the list of sources when cycling through the sources using a VSC or remote control. This is

useful if you have unused sources. If you disable the unused sources, they will not show up in the cycle.

To enable the selected source, press the +button. To disable the selected source, press the –button. By

default, all sources are connected (i.e. enabled). These settings are system-wide and affect all zones.

After modifying the connection status for all eight sources, press and release the src button to advance to

the Source Gain settings.
