    IN-WALL POWER CONTROL

    Sequenced power control, right where you need it.

    The CQ 1 module extends the simplicity of the CQ sequencing platform to any wall, ceiling, or enclosure. It provides a single, sequenced 15A duplex outlet in a compact form factor that fits a standard three-gang electrical box, making it ideal for powering distributed AVL systems like powered speaker arrays or digital signage. There is no complex programming required, just connect the power and link it to other CQ devices using standard network cables.

    This plug-and-play approach simplifies installations that don’t have a central equipment rack, reducing labor and equipment costs. The CQ 1 can operate as a standalone unit triggered by a contact closure or be daisy-chained with other CQ sequencers for coordinated, system-wide power-up and power-down routines, protecting connected equipment and preventing nuisance breaker trips.

    FAQ

    FAQs about the CQ 1

    Does the CQ 1 require a primary controller?

    No, the CQ 1 is a plug-and-play device that does not require a separate primary controller or any programming. It can operate as a standalone unit or as part of a larger, self-contained CQ system.

    How do I connect multiple CQ 1 units together?

    You can link multiple CQ units using standard eight-wire RJ-45 network cables. Each unit has an ‘Input’ and ‘Output’ port to create a simple daisy-chain for system-wide sequencing.

    How is the CQ 1 controlled?

    The CQ 1 can be controlled in two ways. It can be triggered by a simple remote contact closure from a keyswitch or relay, or it can be daisy-chained with other CQ Series sequencers and follow their sequence commands.

    What is the primary use for the CQ 1?

    The CQ 1 is designed to provide sequenced power to distributed AV equipment, such as powered speakers, projectors, or displays, in locations without a traditional equipment rack. It installs directly into a wall, ceiling, or floor box.

    What kind of electrical box does the CQ 1 install in?

    The CQ 1 is designed to fit into a standard three-gang electrical box. Two gangs are for the device itself, and the third provides space for power line connections. A plastic three-gang enclosure is included for convenience.
