Remote Controls: These settings affect the way the Control Pad receives commands from a handheld wireless remote. The NV-GRC1 is the system remote that comes with the Essentia. It allows the same level of control as the Control Pad. At the default setting, All Remotes Enabled, this remote and any third-party IR remote will be received by the zone's Control Pad. In some instances, you may not want a third-party remote command to be received by the Control Pad. In this case, you would choose NuVo Remote Only. If the zone is in an area that is flooded with sunlight or receives interference from plasma displays, the best choice is All Remotes Disabled.

Slaved to Zone: A feature of Essentia is the ability to slave zones together. This is most useful for controlling a zone with more than one Control Pad, or the converse, which is controlling more than one zone with one Control Pad. Simply scroll to the zone you wish to slave to and select it from the list, Fig. 46 .

Zone Number: Each zone must be assigned a number or specific zone address. This is done by scrolling to the desired zone and selecting it. All used zone addresses will be grayed out. If you have defined zones in the Configurator Software, the actual zone names assigned in the Zone tab of the software will appear in the list. The zone list appears just as it does in the previous Slaved Zone menu. Scrolling to a different zone name and pressing OK will set a new zone address, or selecting NONE erases the zone address.

Diagnostic Self Test: This performs a short display parameter test when selected.

Source Settings: Two choices reside in this menu regarding the source currently playing, Fig. 47.

Gain: This lets you increase the audio input levels from the sources coming into the Essentia. This is not necessary for the NuVoNet components, but if you use a satellite or cable set-top box as an audio source for the system, you will find that the audio level is inherently softer and will benefit by the gain setting. The default is 0dB, with a range up to 18.75dB.

NuVoNet Source: If you uncheck this selection, that source will not be polled by NuVoNet and will only be IR controllable.
