Using the Remote Controller in Zone 2 and Multiroom Control Kits

To control the AV receiver with the remote controller while you’re in the Zone 2 room, you’ll need a commer- cially available multiroom remote control kit.

Using a Multiroom Kit with a Cabinet

In this setup, the IR receiver picks up the infrared signals from the remote controller and feeds them to the AV receiver located in the cabinet via the connecting block.

Multiroom kits are made by Niles and Xantech. These kits can also be used when there isn’t a clear line of sight to the AV receiver’s remote sensor, such as when it’s installed inside a cabinet.
