Multi-room connections
The 650R features
Incognito Ready
multi-room capability. One or two amplified keypads can be plugged into the
650R (using Cat5/5e cable and RJ45 plugs) to provide multi-room audio in
one or two secondary rooms or zones. The keypads are powered by an
external PSU (also required) through the Cat5/5e cables and no mains
connection is required in the secondary rooms.

The 650R is Incognito Ready Type II, which means the keypads can operate
independently of the amplifier in terms of volume/bass/treble etc, be
independently turned on and off from the 650R and each other, and can also
listen to a different source from that which is currently selected on the
amplifier. However, both keypads can only listen to the same source.

The 650R also features 2nd/3rd zone Composite video outputs which
optionally allow the extra zones to have video capability. The 650R can use
either Composite video, S-Video or component inputs as sources to supply
the sub-zones, as it is able to transcode then to composite but not from HDMI
sources. For HDMI sources, simply make an extra parallel analogue video
connection to that sources input as well.

A-BUS is a standard that allows compatibility between different
manufacturers equipment, so A-BUS compatible keypads from other
manufacturers can also be used. If used with our own Incognito KP10
keypads, there are some extra features such as the ability to change source
on the 650R from the keypad.
Connections to the 650R's Incognito Ready
are made by
Cat-5 cable (terminated with an RJ45 jack plug). The RJ45
plug must be wired to the EIA/TIA 568A wiring standard:

To allow control of your source equipment from the remote rooms an IR
emitter (IR10) is plugged into one of the IR outputs on the rear of the unit and
then attached over the IR window of the source unit. Alternatively, on our own
products that feature IR emitter Inputs, a mini-jack to mini-jack lead can be
used. Commands received by the keypads can now be sent back to the
source equipment via the 650R.
It is then possible to control the source equipment from the remote rooms by
using the source equipment's own remote controls or through a learning
remote. The Incognito LR10 can fully control the keypads, "learn" the
source's remote control codes (including those from other manufacturers)
and change source input on the 650R etc.
