CAUTION : If the "FIXED" position is chosen, the volume will be loud.

3 Use the 5´° buttons to select the MULTI-ROOM set up mode and press ENTER.

4 Select the VOLUME LEVEL by using the 2´3 buttons.

If you hook up a just a power amplifier in the sub room the VSX- 27TX/26TX will act as a pre-amp. In this case choose VARIABLE for the VOLUME LEVEL setting. If you hook up a full integrated amplifier in the sub room (such as another Pioneer VSX receiver) choose FIXED for the VOLUME LEVEL setting.

CAUTION!

If the MULTI ROOM is set to FIXED the volume on the main unit will be set to maximum. Thus, when output, it will be extremely loud. Please set the master volume controls of the integrated amplifier in the sub room very low at first and experiment to find a suitable volume.

5 Select the IR RECEIVER type with the 5´° buttons and select the type by using the 2´3 buttons.

If you have the Pioneer-made MR-100 select PIONEER. If you have an IR RECEIVER from a different company, select OTHER.

6 Move to the EXIT setting and press ENTER to exit MULTI-ROOM set up and return to the SYSTEM SETUP MENU operations.

You can leave the MULTI ROOM set up mode any time by pressing the SYSTEM SETUP button.

memo • Some IR RECEIVERS may not work with this system, check with a PIONEER representative to be sure.

For the VSX-24TX the VOLUME LEVEL is set to FIXED and the IR RECEIVER is set to PIONEER.
