Using Other Functions
MULTI ROOM function
To use this receiver with a MULTI ROOM setup you need an external IR receiver.
When used together with an IR receiver (not included), this receiver is capable of outputting two different sources at the same time. One to the VIDEO OUT jack and SPEAKERS terminals and another to the MULTI ROOM & SOURCE AUDIO and VIDEO OUT jacks. Thus the

•When connecting the IR receiver, be sure to connect it to the green MULTI ROOM & SOURCE REMOTE IN jack, not the black CONTROL IN or OUT jacks.
•It is not possible to input digital signals into the sub room. You must use an analog signal.
•You can't use tone controls (etc.) or any surround modes in the sub room.
