AVR

To control more than one source device through the AVR’s IR Remote Out connector, connect all sources in “daisy chain” fashion, connecting each device’s IR output to the next device’s IR input, starting with the AVR.

ssIf you install a multizone system, connect an IR control device to the Zone 2 IR In connector for remote-room control of the multizone system, source devices and volume in the remote zone.

If a source device is shared with the main listening area, any control commands issued to that source will also affect the main room.

Connect the Trigger Output

If your system has equipment that can be controlled by a DC trigger signal, connect it to the AVR’s Trigger Out connector with a mono 1/8-inch (3.5mm) mini-plug interconnect cable. The AVR will supply a 12V DC (100mA) trigger signal at this connection whenever it is powered on.
