B. MULTI-ZONE DESIGN/APPLICATIONS
The D1200 was designed with multi-zone systems in mind. By using an ELAN multi-zone
controller, certain amp channels are designated to specific zones of the house, each having
its own separate source selectability. The advantages of this system type are numerous:
1 Each area of the house can listen to a different audio source at the same time.
2. Source components do not have to be duplicated throughout the house (who wants to
buy twelve A/V receivers or DVD players?)
3. House-wide systems can interface easily (Page, Doorbell, Telemute).
4. System status can be conveyed throughout the house so that shared sources and zone
On/Off are evident (so that one person doesn't interrupt another person's movie, for example).
5. Separate zones can be personalized to allow only certain sources to be accessed or certain
features allowed or disallowed (Do Not Disturb, for example).
