Zone 2 Remote Control Functions (AVR 3700/AVR 370 only), continued

By installing an IR receiver in the remote zone of a multizone system and connecting it to the AVR’s Zone 2 IR Input connector, you can use the Zone 2 remote to control the sound in the remote zone from within the remote zone. You can use it to control the AVR’s power, volume and mute functions or to select a source input for the remote zone, and to control a Harman Kardon source device connected to one of the AVR’s Remote IR Out connectors. See Connect IR Equipment, on page 22, for more information.

You can also use the Zone 2 remote in the main listening room to control the AVR and Harman Kardon Blu-ray Disc™, DVD, CD or tape players. When the Zone 2 remote is in the Zone 1 control mode (the remote’s Zone Indicator light will turn green), its power, volume and mute controls will affect only the main listening area. To restore operation to the remote zone, press the remote’s Zone Selector button so that its Zone Indicator light turns red.

IR Transmitter lens: As buttons are pressed on the remote, infrared codes are emitted through this lens.

Power Off button: Press this button to turn the AVR off.

Mute button: Press to mute the AVR’s remote-zone speakers. To restore the sound, press this button, adjust the volume or turn off the multizone system. Make sure to switch the remote to Zone 2 mode so that only the remote zone will be affected.

Source Selector buttons: With the remote in Zone 2 mode, press one of these buttons to select a source device for the remote zone. Pressing the button will also turn on the multizone system and switch the remote to the selected source device’s control mode. You may select a different external source device than that for the main room, but not different tuner bands. If you select the same source as that for the main room, any commands sent to the source device will affect both zones.

ssThe first press of the Radio button switches the AVR to the last-used tuner band (AM or FM). Each successive press changes the band.

ssThe first press of the USB button switches the AVR to the last-used source (USB or iPod). Each successive press cycles between the two sources.

ssThe first press of the Network button switches the AVR to the last-used source (Network or vTuner). Each successive press cycles between the two sources.

Sleep button: Press this button to activate the sleep timer, which turns off the receiver after a programmed period of time. Each press increases the time by 10 minutes, up to 90 minutes – ending with the “Sleep Off” message.

AVR button: Press this button to turn on the AVR and select the last-used source. This button is also used to switch the remote control to AVR control mode.

Back/Exit button: Press this button to return to the previous menu or to exit the menu system.

Menu button: This button is used within the tuner menus and is also used to display the main menu on some source devices. To display the AVR’s menu system, press the AVR button.

Up/Down/Left/Right buttons: These buttons are used to navigate the menu system and to operate the tuner.

OK button: This button is used to select items from the menu system.

Volume Up/Down buttons: Press to raise or lower the volume level in the remote zone.

Transport Control buttons: These buttons are used to control source devices.

Zone Selector button and Zone Indicator light: Each press of the Zone Selector button determines whether the AVR commands will affect the main listening area (Zone 1) or the remote zone (Zone 2). The Zone Indicator light will turn green when Zone 1 has been selected, and red when Zone 2 has been selected. The Zone Indicator light will also light up briefly when any button is pressed.
