Zone linking is a useful feature for simplifying control in closely coupled rooms, where the rooms require different volume levels and On/Off status, yet the same audio source.

If for instance the Lounge and Study zones in the “Typical System Configuration” on page 9 were always used together on the same source, then zone linking could be used to simplify the control of the two otherwise separate zones. Zone 2 is simply linked to zone 1 either via the front panel user interface or IMC program (see page 22). Once linked both zones will always select the same source whether controlled by the lounge remote control, or study keypad.

It is possible to only link a pair of zones together, i.e. zone 1 linked to zone 2. On the same MZA-4.7 it would be possible to also link zone 3 to zone 4. Options are also provided for Linking volume and/or standby via IMC.
