Trigger connectors
TRIG Z3
Infra-red (IR) connectors
The trigger connectors (Trig Z1, Trig Z2 and Trig Z3) provide an electrical signal whenever the amplifier is switched on and the relevant zone enabled.
Use for remotely turning on and off power amps or source equipment for Zone 3. On = 12V, Off = 0V.

Z1 IR
This input is intended for use with a local IR receiver when the front panel of the unit is blocked.
Connecting an IR receiver to Z1 IR will disable to front panel IR receiver to prevent problems with multiple commands if the front panel IR receiver is only partially obstructed.
Z2 IR
This input is intended for use with an IR receiver in Zone 2 to allow remote control of the unit from a second room.

NOTE
The IR inputs on the unit are designed for modulated signals. If the external IR receiver demodulates the IR signal, it will not work. Also the unit does not provide power for external receivers on the IR jack, therefore an external power source will be required.
