Introduction

This guide was written with the aim of guiding you through the installation of a Soundweb Contrio wall controller. We recommend that you read this install guide before attempting to install and operate the controller.

BSS Audio Soundweb Contrio wall controllers are the next-generation controllers for use with BSS Audio Soundweb London and other compatible devices. Attractively priced analog and Ethernet HiQnet™ controller options are available. Each controller model is available in black or white and in US or EU mounting variants.

The Ethernet controllers connect to a controlled device via Ethernet using Cat 5 cable and support Power over Ethernet (PoE).

Ethernet Cable Recommendations

When installing Ethernet Contrio controllers, Cat 5, Cat 5e or Cat 6 cabling should be used. Extra care must be taken when using shielded Ethernet cables to ensure the shield does not short to the controller's printed circuit board. Note that bulky molded Ethernet cables may be obstructed by the printed circuit board. Therefore, it is recommended that Ethernet cables with crimp-on type RJ45 connectors be used.

Front Panel

1. Locate Button

This small pinhole provides access to the Locate button. Pressing the Locate button allows an online controller to be easily identified within Audio Architect™, see 'Locate' on page 15 for further information on functions performed with this button.

2. Encoder w/ Pushbutton & Light Ring

This dual-function encoder provides rotary and pushbutton control. An RGB light ring around the encoder provides volume setting indication, signal level metering, and mute status.

3. Selector Buttons

These RGB, LED-backlit buttons can be programmed to control source selection, preset selection, or any other assignable state variable and support selection between eight different colors.

4. LCD display

This RGB display is broken up into four sections to correspond with the selector buttons. The display can be programmed to display text or graphic icons and supports selection between eight different colors.

Mechanical Installation

The US versions of the Contrio wall controllers were designed to fit into standard 1-gang or 2-gang US wall boxes. The EU versions were designed to fit into standard EU 1-gang or 2-gang square and round boxes. Screws are provided with each controller to fix them in place. Both 3mm and 3.5mm screws are provided with EU versions for mounting as required.

Dimensions of each Ethernet wall controller model are shown below.

Connections

Both power and network connectivity are supplied to the Ethernet Contrio controllers via their RJ-45 Ethernet ports. Power must be supplied to the controllers via an IEEE802.3af compliant Power over Ethernet (PoE) device. Note that PoE+ (IEEE802.3at compliant) devices can also be used with the Contrio controllers as they are backwards compatible with the IEEE802.3af standard. There are two types of PoE devices which can be used to supply power to the Contrio controllers, they are:

- An in-line IEEE802.3af compliant power injector (referred to as a 'midspan').

- An IEEE802.3af compliant PoE enabled network switch (referred to as an 'endspan' or 'endpoint').

Typical midspan Ethernet powering devices include:

3Com® Single-Port 802.3at Gigabit PoE Midspan Solution - P/N: 3CNJPSE

3Com® Power over Ethernet Multiport Midspan Solution - P/N: 3CNJPSE24

Typical endspans (Ethernet switches) with PoE enabled ports include:

Netgear® ProSafe™ 24-Port Gigabit Smart Switch - P/N: GS728TP

Dell® PowerConnect™ 3524P 24-Port PoE Switch - P/N: 3524P

An Ethernet Contrio wall controller connects to a Soundweb London network via its Ethernet port, either through a midspan then into the rear of a rackmount device (e.g., BLU-806) or through a PoE compliant Ethernet switch (endspan) using either straight-through or crossover Cat 5 cables (see connection diagarms on next page).

If a DHCP enabled switch has been implemented on the network, the Contrio contollers will be assigned IP addresses from the DHCP server. If no DHCP server is present, an Auto-IP compliant IP address will be assigned. Static IP addressing is also supported via Audio Architect. See the important note about DHCP in the Audio Architect help file for further information.

Ground Lug Connection (Optional)

A ground lug is provided on all Contrio controllers for connecting to an earth ground. This can provide further protection against ESD (Electrostatic Discharge). In most cases this connection should not be necessary. However, if you experience irregular behavior when testing a Contrio controller, connecting this lug to an earth ground may resolve the issue.

EARTH GROUND

Locate

Each Ethernet Contrio controller has a pinhole Locate pushbutton on the faceplate that will trigger the locate function.

Pressing the Locate button using a small, long object, such as a paperclip, will cause a controller's front panel LEDs to flash. If the controller is programmed and online with Audio Architect, the corresponding controller icon will also flash in the Audio Architect design file to identify it.

NOTE: Wall controllers can also be located using Netsetter from within Audio Architect. When the locate function is activated in Audio Architect, the controller's LEDs will flash to indicate that the wall controller is being located from the software.

Boot Menu Mode

On controllers with a display, controller information such as IP address and subnet mask can be displayed by entering Boot Menu Mode. This information can be used for installation and troubleshooting purposes and, once installation is complete, can be locked out from within Audio Architect to keep network address information private.

To access and use the Boot Menu:

1. Power off the controller.
2. Apply power to the controller while pressing and holding the Locate button. Keep the Locate button held for about 30 seconds.
3. Press the corresponding button to select the desired menu option.

NOTE: The Ethernet Contrio controllers (with the exception of the EC-V model) also have available Demo Modes which can be used to simulate each controller's control capability. In the event you find the controller behaving strangely after accidentally entering this mode, simply power cycle the device to exit Demo Mode. This mode is generally reserved for sales associates and serves no practical purpose during installation.

Factory Reset & Restart

Factory Reset

The Factory Reset will revert an Ethernet Contrio controller back to its unconfigured, factory-default state by deleting its configuration and clearing any set IP address information.

To Factory Reset a controller:

1. Power off the controller.
2. Apply power to the controller while pressing and holding the Locate button. Keep the Locate button held for about 30 seconds.
3. If using an EC-V, the controller will now perform the Factory Reset and you don't need to perform any of the following steps. If using the EC-4B, EC-4BV, or EC-8BV, the Boot Menu options should now be displayed and you can continue to step 4.
4. Select the 'Factory Reset' option by pressing the corresponding button. Note that selecting the 'Restart' option will restart the controller without clearing the configuration and IP address.
5. The Factory Reset will now be performed.

Restart

Perform the Restart procedure if an Ethernet Contrio controller becomes unresponsive. This procedure will restart a controller without having to disconnect power to the device. Configuration and IP address information will not be lost when performing the Restart procedure.

To Restart a controller:

1. With the controller powered on, press and hold any button or encoder for approximately 20 seconds.
2. The controller will now power cycle and reboot with the current configuration and IP settings.

NOTE: There is no Restart procedure for the EC-V controller. To Restart an EC-V controller, power must be disconnected from the controller then reconnected, or the PoE device supplying power must be power cycled.

Other Functions

The following functions are configured using the Contrio Default Control Panel from within Audio Architect.

Sleep Function

When enabled, the Sleep function allows the Contrio controller's LEDs and displays to 'sleep' (turn off) after a specified period of operator inactivity, which can be entered in the 'Sleep Delay' field. Any button press or rotary movement by the operator will 'wake up' the controller and restore the display and LEDs to show current system status. Note that there is a 2 second delay after 'wake up' before the controls will again become active.

If the 'Lockout On Sleep' function is also enabled, then, when the controller 'wakes up', it will automatically enter its 'locked' state. Button and rotary actions on the unit will have no effect until the required security PIN number is entered, see 'Lockout Active Function (Excludes EC-V Model)' on page 18 for further information.

To wake a controller:

1. While the controller is in the 'sleep' state, either press a button or turn the rotary encoder.

NOTE: Although the EC-V controller cannot be unlocked directly from the controller, it can be unlocked by other means – such as by using Soundweb London logic or a Control Input contact closure.

Sleep Delay Time

When the Sleep function is enabled, this field allows you to enter the amount of time it will take, after no operator activity, before a Contrio controller will go to 'sleep' by extinguishing its LEDs.

Lockout On Sleep Function (Excludes EC-V Model)

When 'waking' a 'sleeping' controller, this function locks out the controller until the correct PIN has been entered, see 'Lockout Active Function (Excludes EC-V Model)' on page 18 for further information.

Lockout Active Function (Excludes EC-V Model)

The 'Lockout Active' button on the Contrio Default Control Panel provides a mechanism to disable a Contrio controller until a security PIN is entered. This might be appropriate when the controller is located in a public area and restricted access to the controller functions is required. When the unit is 'locked', any button press or rotary movement will be ignored.

The desired 4-digit security PIN for a Contrio controller may be configured in the controller's 'Properties' section from within Audio Architect and is composed of the digits 1, 2, 3, and 4. This security PIN only becomes active on the controller if the Lockout Active button is enabled and after going online and loading the design file to the controller.

To unlock a locked controller:

1. While the controller is in the 'locked' state, either press any button or turn the rotary encoder. All LEDs on the controller will flash RED, indicating it is locked and the message 'Controller Locked – Push and hold any button to enter PIN' will be displayed.
2. The numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4 will be displayed next to the buttons. Simply press the corresponding buttons to enter the PIN sequence.
3. When a correct PIN sequence is entered, all LEDs on the controller will flash GREEN twice, confirming the unit is now 'unlocked' and normal operation of the buttons and rotary control will be possible.

NOTE: If the PIN sequence entered is incorrect, the controller will flash RED twice, indicating it is still in the 'locked' state and the above procedure must be performed again.

You can use Audio Architect to unlock a currently locked Contrio controller (e.g., If you have forgotten the Lockout PIN).

To unlock a locked controller via Audio Architect:

1. Load the Audio Architect (AA) design file which matches the controller.
2. From the main AA view, left-click on the corresponding controller.
3. In the 'Properties' window select the Configuration Tab then delete all characters from the 'Lockout PIN' field.
4. In the main view, right-click on the controller and select the 'Show Default Control Panel' option.

5. Disable both the 'Lockout on Sleep' and 'Lockout Active' buttons.

6. Go online and load the design to the Contrio controller.

7. The controller will now be unlocked.

LED Maximum Brightness

There are 4 selectable brightness levels for a Contrio controller, they are: LED Maximum Brightness 1 (dim) to 4 (bright). These values can be changed in the controller's Default Control Panel, which is accessed by right-clicking on the controller from the main view in Audio Architect and selecting the 'Default Control Panel' option. Here are a few things to note about LED functionality and the Maximum Brightness parameter:

• Disabled controls, such as unavailable channels on a source selector, will be unlit.
• Inactive but selectable controls will be unlit (e.g., where a controlled parameter has gone offline).
• Active or selected controls will be shown using the currently selected 'LED Maximum Brightness' setting.
• In most cases, it is recommended that a high Maximum Brightness setting be used (e.g., 4), as this will allow a higher contrast between active and inactive LED states.
