Source Routes for CNAMPX Series Amplifiers
To make sure that CNAMPX series amplifiers' room outputs are turned on and off during audio
grouping and after a power outage, turn on and off the outputs using Sequence Quick Actions
and Media Zone Events.
Using the following configuration, when a source is routed to the CNX-PAD8A, Media Zone
Events and Sequence Quick Actions turn on and off the outputs on the CNAMPX series amplifier.
For an overview of this process, refer to the steps below:
l Make all of the physical connections in system.
o Connect the source that feeds the CNAMPX series amplifier. For example, connect
the CNX-PAD8A's Line Outputs to the CNAMPX series amplifier's Room Inputs or
connect multiple Sonos devices to the CNAMPX series amplifier's Room Inputs.
o Connect the CNAMPX series amplifier's speaker outputs to the speakers in each
room or audio zone.
l Create the source routes.
o Route the audio to the Output for the device that sends audio the CNAMPX series
amplifier. For example, select a room for Room Audio 1 in the Output on the CNX-
PAD8A.
o Do not assign inputs or outputs to the amplifier; although physical connections are
made to the CNAMPX series amplifier, they are not modeled in the source route.
o The room assignments on the device that sends audio to the CNAMPX series
amplifier serve as the media zones, not the amplifier.
l Create sequence quick actions for each output on the CNAMPX series amplifier.
o Create a sequence quick action that turns the channel on.
o Create a sequence quick action that turns the channel off.
o The sequence quick actions will be used to turn on and off the outputs on the
amplifier when audio is routed to the zone or when audio is grouped using the
Crestron Home user interface.
l Configure media zone events to turn the channel on and off when audio is routed to the
channel.
o The Media Zone On event triggers the sequence quick action to turn the channel on.
o The Media Zone Off event triggers the sequence quick action to turn the channel off.
