Multiroom Operation

When operating the AVR from a remote room location where an IR sensor link has been con- nected to the AVR’s rear panel Multiroom IR Input , you may use either the Main remote control or the Zone II remote. To turn on the multiroom feed, press any of the Input Selector buttons on the Zone II remote ∫ç∂ or the Main remote 456. Press the AVR Selector 5∫ to turn the unit on to the last source, or any of the other Selector buttons to turn on to a specific source.

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 î, change the tuner frequency Kè, change the tuner

preset	© or mute the output	˚.
If the Remote IR Output jack		on the

AVR is connected to an IR Input jack on compat- ible Harman Kardon audio components such as CD, DVD or cassette players, the transport func- tions of those machines may also be controlled using the Transport Controls

PɃ©˙∆ on either remote

control.

To turn the system off from the remote room, press the Power-Offbutton 0å. 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 on the remote. Next, press the Set button F. Press the ⁄/ ¤ buttons Dto turn the multiroom feed on or off. When the multiroom system is on, the Main Information Display ˜ or OSD will display MULTI ON. Press the Set button Ftwice to enter the setting.

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. 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 .

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 2on the front panel. To turn off the multiroom system from the main listening room, when the AVR is on press the Multiroom but-

ton and then the Set button F. Press the

⁄/ ¤ buttons D so that the Main Information Display ˜ 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
