multi-room
set up
The Receiver allows independent routing to a separate
set of equipment, typically used for a second living
space, e.g., bedroom or lounge.

The and phono sockets should be connected

ANALOGUE AUDIO IN ) of the Zone 2 display device, or
to the inputs of an additional stereo power amplifier in
Zone 2 (for example, the Arcam P38).

If the main zone has a 5.1-channel surround sound
speaker system (not a 7.1-channel system), the spare
SBL and SBR speaker outputs can be used to power
speakers in Zone 2, so that a power amplifier is not
required.
To configure the outputs, navigate to the 'Spkr Types'
option in the Setup Menu and set the option 'Use
Channels 6+7 for' to 'Zone 2'; see page E-26.
Zone 2 control connections
The Receiver also allows remote control from Zone 2.
TRIG Z1 Z1 IR
TRIG Z2 Z2 IR
Z2 IR
This allows the Receiver to be controlled remotely from
Zone 2 via Infra-red remote control. Connect a remote
IR receiver in Zone 2 to allow control of the Receiver
from this listening/viewing area.
For more information on remote IR receivers, see "Z2
IR" on page E-14.
TRIG Z2
This allows the Receiver to remotely switch on devices in
Zone 2 when Zone 2 is selected. For example you could
~ 50 – 60 H
set your television in Zone 2 to switch on when 'Zone 2'
115
is selected on Receiver.
For more information on triggers, see "Trigger
connectors" on page E-14.
Please note that not all AV devices have this feature,
nor are triggers essential for listening and viewing in a
separate zone.
