Zone2 control connections
e AVR400 also allows remote control from Zone 2.
Z2 IR
is allows the AVR400 to be
controlled remotely from Zone2
via Infra-red remote control.
Connect a remote IR receiver
in Zone2 to allow control of
the AVR400 from this listening/
viewing area.
For more information on remote IR receivers, see ‘Z1
IR’ on page E-17.
TRIG Z2
is allows the AVR400 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 AVR400.
For more information on triggers, see ‘Trigger
connectors’ on page E-17. 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 AVR400 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 AVR400 is normally connected in a multi-room
installation.
Zone2
Zone2 receives only signals obtained by the AVR400
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 AVR400
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 AVR400.
Video outputs
e Z2 Composite video output connectors of the
AVR400 should be connected to the analogue video
inputs (usually labelled VIDEO IN or COMPOSITE VIDEO IN)
of the display device in Zone2.
Audio 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-32).
