Note

A zone can contain audio outputs as well as control outputs.

A zone cannot be empty, but e.g. even a single control output assigned to a zone is a valid configuration.

Audio output names and control output names between brackets indicate that these outputs are not yet enabled in the configuration. Disabled outputs can be assigned but will not work.

Note

A zone with only a control output assigned to it allows a call to activate an external alarm (e.g. a siren) in a zone.

45.2.3 Create a zone

Proceed as follows to create a new zone:

1Go to Configure > Zone & amplifier > Zone configuration. A screen similar to the one in figure 45.3 appears in the main frame of the web interface.
