different (or the same) source in another part of the house.

 

• With the Home Theater Standard 7.1 in operational or stand-by

 

mode, you can activate the main zone only. Or, while the Home

 

Theater Standard 7.1 is still in stand-by mode, you can set up

 

zone 2 listening so that when you switch to operational mode,

 

only zone 2 plays.

 

• You can play a source using the main zone while using zone 2 to

 

record.

 

The red LED illuminates when the input is engaged and playing in

 

the main zone. The green LED illuminates when the input is engaged

 

and playing in zone 2. You can set the zone 2 output to be fixed or

 

variable, see Configure Level Adjustment, on page 47.
