FEATURES AND BENEFITS

System-Wide Operation

The ZR-8630AV Audio/Video MultiZone Receiver incorporates system-wide control to activate all zones to a par- ticular source component. An ALL OFF command is included for complete system shutdown from any zone in the system.

Paging Input for Telephone Systems

A paging input accommodates telephone systems equipped with a paging output. Audio sensing detects the paging signal and interrupts source components playing in the various zones, enabling the paging signal to play through. If a zone is off during a page, it turns on, enabling the paging signal to play through. Front-panel switches disable this paging feature in any zones where it is not required.

12V Control Output

A control-output connector provides a constant 12V DC trigger signal the moment any zone is activated. This signal can be interfaced to voltage-triggered AC power strips (i.e., Niles AC-3) for the automation of source components that can be activated only by switched AC outlets. Also, individual control-output triggers for zones 4, 5, and 6 provide a constant 12V DC trigger signal for reliable triggering of external amplifiers speci- fied for zones requiring more power.

Expandable for Larger Multi-Zone Systems

Up to three ZR-8630AV units can be combined in a single system, providing up to 18 zones. Source components are connected to all receivers, splitting their audio/video signals with Niles AVDA-3 Audio/Video Distribution Amplifiers.

Program Memory Protection

The ZR-8630AV Audio/Video MultiZone Receiver uses non-volatile memory to store its programming. This safeguards against accidental loss of the programming for the entire life of the product.
