Using Other Functions

Multi-Room

When used together with an optional IR receiver, 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 VSX-47TX can power two independent systems, in separate rooms, listening to or watching different sources. With this system the two rooms can have completely independent power (the main room power can be off while the sub room is on) and the sub room can be controlled by this unit's remote control. If you go into the main room to change the source but forget the remote control it's not a problem. While in MULTI ROOM mode the input selector on the front panel of the VSX-47TX is able to change the input even though the receiver is off.

MULTI-ROOM connections

On the VSX-47TX, connect the IR receiver sensor to the MULTI-ROOM & SOURCE REMOTE IN jack, then connect a separate amplifier (and speakers) and TV monitor to the MULTI-ROOM & SOURCE AUDIO and VIDEO OUT jacks. All of this equipment should be placed in your sub-room as shown below.

memo • When connecting the IR receiver, be sure to connect it to the green MULTI-ROOM & SOURCE RE- MOTE 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.
