Z2 IR
is allows the AV950/AVR750/450/380 to be
controlled remotely from Zone2 via Infra-red remote
control. Connect a remote IR receiver in Zone2 to
allow control of the AV950/AVR750/450/380 from this
listening/viewing area.
For more information on remote IR receivers, see “Z2
IR” on page E-14.
TRIG Z2
is allows the AV950/AVR750/450/380 to remotely
switch on devices in Zone2 when Zone 2 is selected.
For example you could set your television in Zone2
to switch on when ‘Zone2’ is selected on AV950/
AVR750/450/380.
For more information on triggers, see “Trigger
connectors” on page E-14.
Please note that not all AV devices have this feature,
nor are triggers essential for listening and viewing in a
separate zone.
multi-room
set up
e AV950/AVR750/450/380 allows independent
routing and control of analogue audio and Composite
video to a separate set of equipment, typically used for a
second living space, e.g., bedroom or lounge.
e connection guide on the following page shows how
the AV950/AVR750/450/380 is normally connected in a
multi-room installation.
Zone 2
Zone2 receives only signals obtained by the AV950/
AVR750/450/380 from the analogue audio and
Composite video inputs. e analogue inputs are
required because there is no analogue-to-digital, digital-
to-analogue or DSP processing available for Zone2
signals – the AV950/AVR750/450/380 only converts
video formats for Zone1.
For this reason, we recommend that in addition to any
digital connections, the analogue audio and Composite
video outputs from your source devices are connected to
the AV950/AVR750/450/380.
Video outputs
e Z2 OUT, R and L phono sockets should be connected
to the analogue audio inputs (Usually labelled
ANALOGUE AUDIO IN) of the Zone2 display device, or
to the inputs of an additional stereo power amplier in
Zone2 (for example, the Arcam P38).
Speaker outputs
If the main zone has a 5.1-channel surround sound
speaker system (not a 7.1-channel system), the spare
SBL and SBR speaker outputs can be used to power
speakers in Zone 2, so that a power amplier is not
required.
To congure the outputs, navigate to the ‘Spkr Types’
option in the Setup Menu and set the option ‘Use
Channels 6+7 for’ to ‘Zone 2’; see page E-26.
