Multiroom Operation

As long as an IR feed to the AVR has been established from the remote room, using any of the buttons on either remote will control the remote location volume F, change the tuner frequency K, change the tuner preset

or mute the output G.

If the Remote IR Output jack on the AVR is connected to an IR Input jack on compatible Harman Kardon audio components such as CD, DVD or cassette players, the transport functions of those machines may also be controlled using the Transport Controls P E on either remote control.

To turn the system off from the remote room, press the Power-Offbutton 0A. Remember that the AVR may be turned on or off from the remote room regardless of the system’s operation or status in the main room.

NOTE: When the tuner is selected as the source for the remote zone, any change to the frequen- cy or preset will also change the station being listened to in the main room, if the tuner is in use there. Similarly, if someone in the main room changes the station, the change will also impact the remote room.

To activate the feed to the remote room, press the Multiroom button Q on the remote. Next, press the Set button F.

When the MULTI ON/OFF message appears in the on-screen display and the Lower Display Line Ò, press the Set Button F and then press the /¤ Navigation Button

Dso that display changes to MULTI ON. Press the Set Button F again to activate the setting. Note that this method may be used to turn the Multiroom system on or off even when the AVR is in the Standby mode in the main lis- tening room.

When the unit is in the Standby mode, but ready for Multiroom or A-BUS operation, the lighting above the Standby/On Switch 3 remains blue and a MULTI ON message appears in the Lower Display Line Ò, even though the unit is “off” in the main listening room.

When the multiroom system is turned on, the input selected using the Multiroom Menu will be fed to the Multiroom Output jacks ' on the rear panel as well as the A-BUS Jack (.

The volume will be as set in the same menu, although it may also be adjusted using an optional IR sensor and the Zone II remote in the remote location or on the optional audio power amplifier connected to the Multiroom Output jacks '.

Although changes to the input source or remote room volume will normally be made using an IR sensor in the remote room that is connected to the AVR, it is also possible to change those set- tings from the main listening room. This is useful for situations where some or all of the remote rooms do not have an IR sensor, or to take con- trol over the remote room without actually being in that room.

In addition to using the MULTIROOM menu, as shown on the previous page, you may change the source or volume in the remote zone using the remote. Press the Multiroom Button Q on the remote, and when the MULTI ON/OFF message appears in the on-screen display and the Lower Display Line Ò, press the Set Button F and then press the

/ ¤ Navigation Button D to toggle past that message to MULTI LEVEL or

MULTI INPUT.

To change the remote room’s input source, when MULTI INPUT appears, press the Set Button F, and then press the / ¤ Navigation Button D until the desired input appears in the on-screen display and in the Lower Display Line Ò. Remember that only analog or PCM input sources may be selected for use with the Multiroom system. Dolby Digital or DTS sources are not available to the Multiroom system.

To change the remote room’s volume, when MULTI LEVEL appears, press the Set Button F, and press the / ¤ Navigation Button D to change the volume setting. Note that this volume adjustment controls the level for the output to the Multiroom Audio Outputs ' and for any speakers connected to the Surround Back/Multiroom Speaker Outputs ￿ when the Surround Back amplifier channels are configured for Multiroom use, as shown on page 44. This adjustment does NOT change the volume level for any room where an ABUS module is used, as that setting is only adjustable using the A-BUS module’s volume control or built-in IR sensor.

Once the multiroom system is turned on, it will remain on even if the AVR is placed in the Standby mode in the main room by pressing the Power Off Button 0or the System Power Control 2 on the front panel. To turn off the multiroom system from the main listening room, when the AVR is on press the Multiroom but- ton Q and then the Set button F. Press the

/ ¤ buttons D so that the Main Information Display Ò or OSD will display

MULTI OFF.

Even when the AVR is turned off (to Standby mode) and the multiroom system is turned off too, the multiroom system may be turned on at any time by pressing the Multiroom button Q, or any of the Selector buttons BC

Din the remote room.
