Defining Terms

Zone

A Zone is defined as an area of the house that has separate source selection capabilities from all other areas of the house. Typically, a zone is comprised of a single room, but it is possible for a zone to spread across multiple rooms (kitchen/dining room, master bedroom/master bath) or for multiple zones to be contained in one room (game room/bar area or multiple zones in the yard).

Source

A Source is any audio (or audio/video) device that is connected to the SOURCE INPUTS of the D5RH. Any Source can be heard in any zone in the system.

Local Source

A Local Source is an audio (or audio/video) device that is connected to a D5IP Source Input Wall Plate. Local Sources are able to be heard only in the zone in which they are installed and may not be heard in other zones of the system.

Front Panel

The front panel of the D5XH is populated simply by a Power LED and a power button. Figure 1-2 and Table 1-1 provide descriptions and locations of Front Panel controls and indicators.
