OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW
OFF Key Events
When you press the OFF Key/Button, as many as two events occur. The first event is factory programmed and is responsible for turning the zone or all zones OFF every time the OFF Key/Button is pressed.
The second event is responsible for turning OFF the source components and only occurs if the zone turning OFF was the last zone ON in the system (including the Home Theater Zone sharing source components). There is no programming required for this event. The programming that was accomplished for the Master Key Source ON events is reversed to deactivate the source components.

The Zone OFF Event is factory programmed and the Source OFF Event is automatically programmed to reverse the programming of the Master Key/Source Buttons that turn the source components ON. IR commands are issued conditionally based on System and Component power synchronization and the on/off status of other zones in the system and the Home Theater.
OFF KEY/BUTTON OPERATION
The OFF Key/Button has two methods of operation.
Single Zone OFF
The first method, a quick tap of the OFF Key/Button in a zone that is currently ON (holding the OFF Key/Button for less than three seconds), causes the zone to turn OFF. The Master Key LED that was illuminated turns OFF.
System Wide OFF
The second method, a press and hold of the OFF Key/Button, turns all zones OFF (holding the OFF Key/Button for more than three seconds). All Master Key LEDs in all zones turn OFF.
Zone Linking OFF
The third method, a press of the OFF Key/Button in any of the linked Zones/Rooms, causes the entire group of linked Zones/Rooms to turn OFF.
