Connecting the Control Bus
If it is desired to control a Cambridge Audio Azur amplifier by the 651T’s
Alarm or Sleep timers, connect the two units via the orange Control Bus
sockets using the supplied orange RCA/phono lead as shown below:
Custom installation (C.I.) use
The 651T features a Control Bus input/output that allow un-modulated
remote control commands (positive logic, TTL level) to be received
electrically by the unit and looped to another unit if desired. These control
commands are typically generated by custom installation (multi-room)
systems or remote IR receiver systems. The Control Bus sockets are
colour-coded orange.
An IR Emitter Input is also provided that allows modulated IR remote
control commands to be received electrically by the unit. Commands on
this input operate the unit only and are not looped out demodulated on
the Control Bus Output.
An RS232 port is also featured which allows the 651T to be controlled by
C.I. systems.
In addition the unit features direct IR/Control codes as well as toggle
codes for many of its features to simplify programming custom installation
systems. Special direct commands can be accessed on the supplied
remote control for teaching into C.I. systems as follows:
Specific power on/off commands – press and hold the Standby button.
The remote first generates it's usual amp and tuner standby (toggle)
commands (both are sent). Keep the button held down, after 12 seconds

separated by 12 second pauses, Tuner On, and finally Tuner Off.
