Using Zone 2 and 3

Zone 2 provides the option for the occupants of the master bedroom, conservatory, kitchen, etc. to view or listen to a different source at a different volume level from the main zone (Zone 1).

Zone 3 provides for a third living space to have a copy of the audio signal in Zone 2 at a different volume level.

Extended front panel menu

Pressing the menu key and holding it for longer than four seconds will bring up the Extended Menu, allowing you to perform the following:

Restore to factory defaults

This option allows you to restore all settings on your AVR600 to the defaults that it left the factory with. Note that this also erases any secure backups stored on the AVR600.

Change remote code

The default RC5 system code the AVR600 responds to is 16. If required, for example due to another device in your system also using this RC5 system code, it can be changed to 19.

Updating firmware using a PC

Using a PC application (available on request from Arcam), you can update the firmware in your AVR600 using the back panel RS232 port connected to your PC.
