Here, the operation example of assigning Broadcast Zones 2 – 4 to Group 2 will be explained for a 5-zone (Master unit only) configuration. (See p. 51 "Group 2 to zone" setting example.)

In the case of 10 broadcast zones (i.e. connection of a master unit to a sub-unit), use the sub-unit's Zone selector keys 1 – 5 as Zone keys 6 – 10.

Step 1. Entry to broadcast group setting mode

Press and release the Reset key while holding down the ZONE 1 and ZONE 2 keys. When all indicators for Zones 1 – 5 begin to flash (2 – 3 seconds after), release both the ZONE 1 and ZONE 2 keys.

Use a precision screwdriver or other long, pointed object (2.5 mm in diameter and over 30 mm in length) when pressing the Reset key.

Note: Even when a sub-amplifier is connected, perform this setting entry operation on the master amplifier only.

The unit will be placed in broadcast group setting mode.

The 5 indicators for ZONE 1 through ZONE 5 begin to flash. (They indicate Group 1 through Group 5.) Another 5 indicators for ZONE 6 through ZONE 10 will also flash if a Sub-amplifier is connected.

Step 2. Group number selection (Example: Group 2)

Press the ZONE 2 key to select the Group 2.

The ZONE 2 indicator will slowly flash* to indicate that Group 2 was selected.

Pressing other selector key will change the group number

Step 3. Group number programming

Press the POWER switch.

The Group 2 will be programmed and the unit will be placed in Zone Selection mode for Group 2.

The ZONE 2 indicator changes from "quick flashing" to "slow flashing*," indicating that Group 2 was selected and that Zone 2 was set (default setting).

The remaining indicators, ZONE 1, ZONE 3, ZONE 4, ZONE 5, and ALL flash. (This indicates that Zones 2 was set as default.)
