REC OUT, ZONE 2, OFF, LEVEL / buttons, and ZONE 2 indicator (TX-SR700/700E only) [60, 61]

The REC OUT and ZONE 2 buttons allow you to use the TX-SR700/ 700E to output to a remote zone (Zone 2) or to another component for recording (Rec Out). Press the REC OUT button to output the audio and video signals to a recording component for recording. Press the ZONE 2 button to enjoy the output from the TX-SR700/ 700E in a different room, which is referred to as the remote zone (Zone 2). When either button is pressed, the currently selected input source for recording or outputting to the remote zone is displayed in the front panel display. If “SOURCE” is displayed, then the same input source as that selected for the main zone will be output.

To select an input source, press the desired button (REC OUT or ZONE 2) and then press one of the input source button within 5 seconds. That source will be output for recording or viewing in the remote zone.

To set the output to the source channel, press the desired button (REC OUT or ZONE 2) twice in succession. To turn off the output, press the OFF button. The ZONE 2 indicator lights when a signal is output to the remote zone (Zone 2). When the ZONE 2 indicator is off, then either output to the remote zone is turned off or Rec Out is selected. Press the LEVEL / buttons to enter the mode for adjusting the volume in the remote zone (Zone 2).

Note:

The Rec Out and Zone 2 buttons use the same circuit and therefore cannot be used at the same time. When REC OUT is selected, nothing is output to Zone 2. When ZONE 2 is selected, REC OUT is automatically fixed to SOURCE.

SPEAKERS A/B buttons (TX-SR600/600E only) [45]
