The 12V triggers A, B, and C can be used to turn on 12V
trigger-capable components automatically when they are
selected as the input source. The triggers can be set so that
they activate when a connected component is selected as
the input source for the main room, Zone 2 or any combi-
nation of rooms. When triggered, the output from a 12V
TRIGGER OUT goes high (+12 volts and 150 milliam-
peres max. at TRIGGER OUT A; +12 volts and 25 milli-
amperes max. at TRIGGER OUT B and C).
When several components are turned on simultaneously
by using triggers A, B, and C, depending on the type of
components, a large amount of current may be drawn
momentarily. To prevent this, you can delay trigger signals
A, B, and C individually. Another application for trigger
delay is eliminating the “thump” noise that’s sometimes
heard when a source component is turned on. Delaying the
trigger signal for your power amplifier so that it’s the last
component to be turned on will accomplish this.

No trigger signal is output. A 12-volt trigger
signal is output when the connected component
is selected as the source for:
