AR5 AUDIO RECEIVER GoRave Receiver & Amplifier Owner’s Manual Installation and Operation Version 1.2 / 12-12-2013 TM GORAVE AR AUDIO RECEIVER & AMPLIFIER Owner’s Installation and Operation Manual V1.2 / 12-12-2013 TM 1. Getting Started 1.1 Thank You Thank you for the purchase of your GoRave AR5 audio receiver & amplifier. The GoRave AR distributes audio from mobile and wired devices to loudspeakers installed in your space. Use it with GoRave Audio Senders to cast audio into your space and swap between your devices and content sources. This manual provides basic installation and operating instructions. The manual will help you experience the performance your system was designed to produce. 1.2 Safety Precautions FOR YOUR SAFETY: ►Carefully read this manual before connecting or operating your GoRave AR receiver/amplifier. Keep this manual for later reference. ►Allow for ventilation around your GoRave AR module for heat dissipation. Keep the GoRave AR away from appliances that produce heat. ►Connect the GoRave AR to the power outlet with the supplied power supply cable. Follow all local elec- trical codes for power connection. ►Stop using the GoRave AR and have it inspected and/or serviced by qualified service personnel if: ●The power supply cord or plug has been damaged. ●Objects have fallen into or liquid has been spilled into the unit. ●The unit has been dropped or damaged in any way. 1.3 Where to Install Speaker outputs Serial port Main Power: 90 - 270VAC White: Neutral Black: Line 1 meter molded NEMA-15 power plug Auxiliary audio input (wired) Pairing button LED indicator TOP Fig 1: top view of a GoRave AR receiver/amplifier. GORAVE AR AUDIO RECEIVER & AMPLIFIER Owner’s Installation and Operation Manual V1.2 / 12-12-2013 TM The wireless GoRave Audio Senders offer a trans- mitting range of 40 feet for the USB style and 30 feet for all other styles. Install your GoRave AR5 receiver amplifier inside this transmitting radius. Include the distance needed to transmit from out- side spaces when deciding on the best location for your AR5 receiver amplifier. Mount your GoRave AR receiver/amplifier with adequate space around the unit for all audio and power connections as well as easy access the receive/pair button and LED status indicator. Use four screws (and anchors) to secure the unit to the surface. 2. Power and Control 2.1 AC Power Connection The GoRave AR receiver/amplifier should be plugged directly into a grounded power receptacle rated to deliver the power required by the GoRave AR unit and the components connected to it. Connect the power cord to the AC outlet. If local electrical codes require a hard wire connection instead of the AC power plug and socket connection, consult a qualified electrician for installation assistance. The GoRave AR receiver/amplifier will operate with a line voltage of 90-270 VAC with a line frequency of either 50Hz or 60Hz. There is no need to convert or adjust the unit in any way. NOTE: If you are going to be away from home for an extended period of time such as a month-long vacation, it is a sensible precaution to unplug your amplifier (as well as other audio and video components) while you are away. 2.2 Power Indicator The LED indicator beside the send/receive pairing button will pulse when the power cord is plugged in to an AC outlet, indicating that the amplifier is turned on. The GoRave AR5 has a built in low power sleep mode where the power supply and amplifiers will turn off when audio is not playing. Fig 2: typical installation in central closet or pantry to maximize useful 35’ transmitter range (range indicated by dashed circle). In this exam- ple, the owners have opted for stereo loudspeakers to be installed in their kitchen, master bedroom and one outdoor speaker for the patio.

The GoRave AR’s protection circuit is independent of the audio signal and has no impact on sonic performance. The protection circuit monitors the temperature of the output devices and shuts down the amplifier if temperatures exceed safe limits. It is unlikely you will ever see this protection circuitry in action. However, should a faulty condition arise, the amplifier will stop playing and the LED indicator on the AR5 unit will flash quickly. The amplifier will automatically resume normal operation when a fault condition is removed. In most cases, the protection activates because of a fault condition such as shorted speaker wires or inad- equate ventilation leading to an overheating condition. In very rare cases, highly re active or extremely low impedance speaker loads could cause the protection circuit to engage. If the protection circuitry triggers repeatedly and you are unable to isolate and correct the faulty condition, con- tact your GoRave reseller for assistance in troubleshooting. 2.4 CAT6 Control Connection Along with installing speaker wires, GoRave recommends running a CAT6 cable from your internet / telco / electrical closet to the GoRave AR installation location. The CAT6 cable will serve for future GoRave internet remote control, home automation and television options. 3. Inputs and Outputs The GoRave AR has one wireless and one wired input connection. The wireless connect enables input from one or more wireless GoRave Audio Senders. The auxiliary wired input enables you to play analog audio from conventional audio sources such as a CD player. 3.1 Wired Input Connection Your GoRave AR5 Amplifier / Receiver has provision for 1 auxiliary connection from an external audio device. You can connect your home stereo, cd player, Airport Express, Blackberry Gateway, Xbox etc. Connect the Auxiliary Audio…
