SYSTEM SETTINGS

SETTING UP THE AM/FM TUNER:

The built-in tuner can store up to twenty presets in any combination of AM or FM stations. In Master/Slave confi gurations, each tuner could store different presets providing a system total of 60. However, each keypad can only operate the tuner in the ZR-6 MultiZone Receiver to which it is connected, so each zone has access to 20 presets.

TO STORE PRESETS IN THE TUNER:

Press the Band button to choose between AM or FM. The display will show AM or FM to indicate the current band along with the current station [AM560].

A M 5 6 0

Press the + or – button to tune to the desired station. Each press and release will increment the tuner frequency up or down. A press- and-hold initiates the seek function. The tuner will move up or down to the next station with a clear signal. Continuing to hold the button will cause the tuner to pause at any station for 3 seconds before seeking the next station. Releasing the button will stop the seek function and the tuner will remain on the last tuned station.

Once the desired station is displayed, press-and-hold the Set button for 2 seconds. The display will change to [PRESET XX SAVE] where XX is the next available open preset.

Press the + or – buttons until the desired preset location is displayed (01 – 20). It will always stop at the fi rst available blank preset. Press the + or – button to overwrite any previously saved preset.

NOTE: IF THE SELECTED PRESET ALREADY HAS A STATION ASSIGNED, IT WILL BE OVERWRITTEN AND THE NEW STATION WILL NOW BE STORED IN THAT PRESET LOCATION.

Press-and-hold the Set button for 2 seconds. This will save the station in the displayed preset location. The ZR-6 MultiZone Receiver will return to normal operation. The display will show the station and the preset.

Repeat these steps until all desired stations are preset or the available twenty presets are fi lled.

Presets may be erased one of two ways: by storing a new preset in the location; or by entering confi guration mode and electing to

erase all presets (see “Erasing Tuner Preset Information”).
