ADV 4 – Zone 2 Settings

ZONE2 VOL: Sets the volume for Zone 2.

Max Vol 20–83: Limits the maximum volume setting for Zone 2. This is a useful feature to prevent accidental overdriving of low power-handling speakers, for example.

Fix Vol: This selects between fixed and variable audio output to Zone 2. If NO is selected, the output level can be controlled from Zone 2 or the main system. If you wish to fix the volume level, first set the Zone 2 volume to the desired level, then select YES.

Max On Vol: Limits the maximum volume Zone 2 operates at when it is first switched on. Zone 2 comes on at this volume if the last used volume exceeds this value.

Stand-by: This allows zone 1 (the main zone) to be put into stand-by, either locally only or by Zone 2 as well.

LOCAL ONLY: Only the main zone will be switched into stand-by from the main zone.

Press the unwanted source button on the remote control handset or front panel to disable it for Zone 2. Press again to enable the source.

Enabled sources are listed on the ‘Access:’ line of the menu page.

Note: if a source is already in use in Zone 2 when access to it is removed, the source remains active until a different source is selected in that zone. After this time, the original source is unavailable.

ADV 5 – Analogue Settings
