ADVANCED FUNCTIONS
Convergence and Edge Focus
The crosshatch pattern that may surround the test screen may be used to evaluate edge focus and convergence in front- or rear- projection video displays. If you are unable to improve the picture using the available controls, contact the video display manufacturer’s authorized service representative for assistance.
When you have finished making any video adjustments, press the Back/Exit Button.
MULTIZONE OPERATION
With the multizone system in use, you may enjoy an exciting
Although installation of a multizone system is not complicated, it requires running wires inside walls. Check your local building codes and comply with the requirements for
Volume: The volume is controlled separately for the remote zone.
Surround Back Amps: Informational only. Automatically reassigns the surround back channels to the multizone system when the multizone system is turned on. When this line is set to Zone 2, you may only configure the main listening room for up to
5.1channels. Since the EzSet/EQ process will only configure the main system, use the Manual Setup section of the Speaker Setup menu to configure the remote speakers with the Status setting off, then turn the Status setting on.
To operate the multizone system using the main remote, slide the Zone Select Switch at the bottom of the remote to the “2” position. To select a zone using the Zone 2 remote, press the Zone Selector, and the Zone Indicator will turn green when the remote is set to operate Zone 1, or red to operate Zone 2.
SYSTEM SETTINGS
The AVR 2600 offers system settings for ease of use. These settings may be accessed from the System Settings menu, which is selected by pressing the Setup Button and navigating to the System line. Press the OK Button to display the System Settings menu. See Figure 40.
Operating the Multizone System
The AVR 2600’s multizone system is accessed using the
Figure 39 – Zone 2 Menu
Status: Turns the multizone system on or off. When no one is listening in the remote room, leave this setting at the default of OFF.
Source: Indicates the source input for the remote zone. You may select a different source from the main listening area. However, if the same source has been selected for both the main listening area and the remote zone, listeners in both areas will hear the same content.
NOTE: Only analog audio sources, including The Bridge III, are available to the multizone system. To hear digital devices, such as a CD player, in the remote zone, follow these steps:
1.In addition to a digital audio connection, connect the source device’s analog audio outputs to the AVR. Make a note in Table A5 in the appendix which set of inputs was used.
2.In the Info Settings menu, leave the Audio Input From Source setting at the digital audio input. Scroll down to the Zone 2 Audio setting and select the analog audio input.

General AVR Settings
Volume Units: Select whether volume is displayed in the conventional decibel scale or on a numeric scale from 0 to 90. When the decibel scale is used, 0dB is the maximum recommended volume, with lower volumes displayed as negative values.
Volume Default and Volume Default Level: These two settings are used together to program the volume level at
