[16] Multi-Zone Source Outputs
These output jacks provide a dupli- cate of the analog audio signal that are connected to Video 1-4, CD and Tape inputs. They are designed to allow the user to interface the sourc- es connected to the GTP-860IIwith an external stereo receiver or tuner/ preamplifier to facilitate multi-zone operation. When using the GTP-860IIin conjunction with the GTP-506/ GFA-6006 (a three room stereo tuner- preamplifier and amplifier combina- tion) the user can deliver sound to three additional rooms using the same source components hooked up to the GTP-860II. See drawing on next page (page 13) for details.
[17] Tape Inputs/Outputs
Connections for analog recording and playback to an audio tape recorder of any type, such as a cassette, reel- reel, DAT, MD or CD-R. Using twin RCA-to-RCA leads, connect to the left and right ‘Audio Output’ of the tape machine to the TAPE IN connec- tors for playback. Connect the left and right ‘Audio Input’ of the tape machine to the TAPE OUT connectors for recording.
[18] CD Analog Inputs
Input for CD player (analog audio sig- nal) or other line-level signal source. Use a twin RCA-to-RCA lead to con- nect the CD player’s left and right ‘Audio Outputs’ to this input.
[19] External 5.1 Analog In
Inputs for the multi-channel audio signals from an external decoder, such as an SACD or DVD-Audio player with integrated decoder. Use two twin RCA-to-RCA leads to connect the decoder’s front left and right ‘Audio Outputs’ to the Front left and right inputs, and the decoder’s Surround left and right outputs to the Surround left and right inputs. Use a third twin RCA-to-RCA lead to connect the

decoder’s subwoofer output to the Subwoofer input and the decoder’s Center channel output to the Center channel input. Make sure to follow color coding of the plugs to ensure that both Center and Subwoofer are connected correctly; for instance, use the red plugs at either end to connect the center channel and the white plugs for the subwoofer channel.
[20] Digital Audio Inputs
Use these inputs to connect the coaxial and optical digital audio signal output from such digital devices as CD, DVD or LD players. These inputs are fully assignable using the OSD.
[21] AC Power Cord
After you have completed all connec- tions to the amplifier, plug the AC line cord into a “live” wall socket.
[22] 12V DC Trigger
To facilitate remote turn-on and turn-off of other components (power amplifiers, for example), this 3.5mm mini-jack provides a constant signal (12 volts DC) whenever the GTP-860IIis fully powered. When the GTP-860IIis turned off (via the front panel switch) or placed in standby mode (via the “power” button on the remote control), the jack has no output.
[23] Voltage Switch
The GTP-860IIcan be configured for either 120V or 230V operation using this switch. Extreme caution must be used when changing the voltage of the unit, as an incorrect voltage selection will cause severe damage to the unit. See your dealer or contact ADCOM for more details regarding the operation of this switch.
NOTE: We strongly recommend the use of our surge suppressor/ line con- ditioners, the ADCOM ACE family of products, for systems with substantial amplifiers and many source compo- nents. The ACE products relieve the GTP-860IIfrom handling large current surges, while they protect your entire
system by filtering and conditioning the AC current. In addition to the numerous heavy duty AC outlets of the ACE-315, the ACE-615 includes sequential power-up and power-down modes to minimize “thumps” when- ever you turn your system on or off.
[24] IR Input
The IR input allows hook up of an external IR sensor that sends IR infor- mation to the microprocessor in the GTP-860II. This feature can be very useful if the GTP-860IIis placed behind a non transparent door or is used with an after market remote con- trol system.
[25] RS232 Control (dB 9)
Allows control of the GTP-860IIvia computer or home automation system.
