ROOM 2 SOURCE PLAYBACK

This function allows enjoying one source in the main room and playing another in a different room at the same time.

The analog signals from the 8 CH DIRECT inputs and TAPE MONITOR INs as well as the digital signals from the coaxial or optical digital input cannot be output from the (VIDEO 2/) ROOM 2 OUTs, meaning no playback in a different room.

When you connect the multi-room system kit to the IR IN jack of this unit, you can control this unit with not only the universal remote control unit but also the ROOM2 remote control unit in a different room, too.

(For details, refer to “CONNECTING MULTI-ROOM SYSTEM KIT” on page 12 and “ROOM 2 Romte controls” on page 27.)

CAUTION : Even when the ROOM 2 function is deactivated, if the VIDEO 2 OUT is set to On, the signals of the selected source as a main room source will be output from the VIDEO 2/ROOM 2 OUTs.(For details, refer to “When selecting the VIDEO 2 OUT” on page 60.)

Notes:

When the pure audio function is activated for the main room source, the video signals of the ROOM 2 source cannot be output, too.

Even when this receiver enters the standby mode, in such a case that “R2” lights up still and the STANDBY button lights up in blue as it does in the operating mode, meaning only the ROOM 2 circuitry operates, the ROOM 2 source can be played independently.

When the ROOM 2 function is operating in the standby mode, only the ROOM 2 remote control unit is available.

When you do not use the ROOM 2 function, cancel the ROOM 2 function to save electricity.

For ROOM 2 volume adjustment, refer to “SETTING THE ROOM 2 FEED SETUP” on page 69.
