Important Safety Instructions

• Read these instructions.

• Keep these instructions.

• Heed all warnings.

• Follow all instructions.

• Do not use this apparatus near water.

• Clean only with dry cloth.

• Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance

with the manufacturer’s instructions.

• Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat

registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that

produce heat.

• Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-

type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than

the other. A grounding-type plug has two blades and a third

grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are

provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into

your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the

obsolete outlet.

• Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched

particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point

where they exit from the apparatus.

• Only use attachments/accessories specified by the

manufacturer.

• Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused

for long periods of time.

• Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is

required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way,

such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been

spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus

has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate

normally, or has been dropped.

• Disconnect power prior to connecting or disconnecting

equipment.

• Do not install in direct sunlight.

• The apparatus must be installed in a way that the power cord

can be removed either from the wall outlet or from the device

itself in order to disconnect the mains power.

• Prevent foreign objects from entering the device.

WARNING:

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK,

DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPARATUS TO RAIN OR

MOISTURE. THE APPARATUS SHALL NOT BE

EXPOSED TO DRIPPING OR SPLASHING. OBJECTS

FILLED WITH LIQUIDS, SUCH AS VASES, SHOULD

NOT BE PLACED ON THE APPARATUS.

WARNING:

TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE

COVER. THERE ARE NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS

INSIDE. ONLY QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL

SHOULD PERFORM SERVICE.

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an

equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the

presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the

product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to

constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is

intended to alert the user to the presence of important

operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the

literature accompanying the appliance.

WARNING:

THIS IS AN APPARATUS WITH CLASS I

CONSTRUCTION. IT SHALL BE CONNECTED TO AN

ELECTRICAL OUTLET WITH AN EARTHING GROUND

TERMINAL.

IMPORTANT:

The AES can be used with Class 2 output wiring.

Entertainment System Crestron Adagio™ AES

Multi-Room Audio

The AES supports up to six sets of stereo room speakers, allowing listeners in each

room to listen selectively to any of 10 different stereo sources. Its integrated multi-

channel power amplifier delivers a robust 45 watts per channel to all rooms. Without

requiring any programming, the AES can easily be expanded to support a total of 12

rooms by adding an AAE Audio Expander. Or, as many as 24 rooms can be handled

using three AAEs with simple setup provided by Crestron Adagio Composer

software.

High-End Performance

An advanced Class G amplifier topology produces the great sound of a classic Class

AB design with near-digital efficiency. A massive MOH-core toroidal power

transformer directs pure, continuous power to each channel, achieving exceptional

dynamic range and low distortion sound quality in every room. Gentle power-up is

achieved through a "soft-start" inrush current limiting circuit, and quick-response

output protection on each channel prevents failure caused by speaker line faults and

overheating.

Enhanced Front Panel Control

With its large backlit LCD display, room and group select buttons, four softkeys and

dual rotary encoders, the AES front panel provides a very powerful, yet friendly user

interface for controlling audio to a houseful of speakers. Custom naming of rooms,

groups, and sources is facilitated on the LCD display, and also on the custom label

strip using Crestron Engraver software.

Preset Groups

The "Group" feature makes it simple to combine speakers in adjacent rooms, or

switch into whole-house party mode, by letting the user link any number of rooms to

function as one. Grouping lets you easily route one source to multiple rooms at once

without the sync problems common to streaming-based systems. Up to six groups

can be defined using the front panel preset group buttons.

Versatile Room Controls

A choice of basic 12-button keypads or the advanced APAD Wall Mount LCD

Controller enables versatile control of the AES in every room. A keypad provides the

essential controls for adjusting volume, selecting sources, and toggling up and down

through tracks and radio channels. For more elegant control, the APAD actually

extends the many functions of the AES front panel to each room, providing true

feedback for display of audio sources, radio stations, CD titles, artists, and tracks by

name, plus audio settings and many other parameters.

Satellite Radio and MP3 Audio Servers

Up to three dual radio tuner cards can be installed in the AES to enable combinations

of up to six AM/FM, XM and SIRIUS Satellite Radio tuners, letting listeners in

different rooms each enjoy their own choice of music, news, sports and talk. With

satellite's digital signal, plus RDS/RBDS data on the FM signal, the AES enables the

display of the full radio station name and other detailed information about the song

or program that is selected. The AES comes with one tuner card included.

In addition to radio, ten line-level inputs are provided (Inputs 1-6 are shared with the

tuner card slots) to accommodate external audio sources including Crestron's AAS

Audio Server and CEN-IDOC Interface for Apple iPod

®

. Plug-and-play

2 • Entertainment System: Adagio AES Operations Guide – DOC. 6456B

Crestron Adagio™ AES Entertainment System

compatibility with the AAS and CEN-IDOC delivers instant access to an entire

collection of music from any room in the house with fully bidirectional

communications for browsing by album, artist, and song title.

2-Series Ethernet Control System

Adagio brings Crestron's industry-leading Total Home Technology to homes of any

size and budget. At the heart of the AES is the 2-Series control engine. With both

Cresnet

®

and Ethernet connectivity, plus custom programmability using Crestron

SystemBuilder™ software, the AES allows customization using Crestron's entire line

of touchpanels, wireless remotes, and hundreds of other devices. The built-in Web

server with native e-Control

®

2 XPanel support enables full remote control over IP

from computers and PDA devices, as well as remote diagnostics and updates. Built-

in IR, RS-232, relay and digital input ports are included to interface the AES with

non-Crestron devices ranging from CD changers to security systems.

Home Automation and Integration

More than just an audio distribution system, the AES can actually grow as part of a

complete home automation solution supporting all of Crestron's Cresnet and

infiNET™ controllable dimmers, shade controllers, thermostats, and so much more.

Applications

The following diagram shows an AES as the centerpiece of an Adagio system using

out-of-the-box functionality.

Available models are:

• AES: AES with ATC-AMFM2 Tuner Card

• AES-XM: AES with ATC-AMFMXM Tuner Card

• AES-SR: AES with ATC-AMFMSR Tuner Card (available soon)

• AESI: AES for International (230 VAC) use with ATC-AMFM2 Tuner

Card

Out of the box, the AES can support one AAS (Adagio Audio Server), one AAE

(Adagio Audio Expander) for control of up to 12 zones, one CEN-IDOC (Interface

for Apple iPod

®

), and a combination of up to 12 C2N-DBF12 (12-button keypads) or

APAD controllers for local control of each zone.

With custom programming (via Adagio Composer, Crestron SystemBuilder™ , or

SIMPL™ Windows

®

) and additional AAEs, the AES can control up to 24 zones of

audio. Additional APADS, C2N-DBF12s, CEN-IDOCs and AAS devices can also be

added as well as other Crestron peripherals.
