Zone Grouping
This feature is specifically designed to accommodate a situation where it is desirable to link a com-
bination of rooms (zones) to a common source.For example when hosting a party and you wish to
have the common areas all linked to the same audio source.
1. Go to any KP-22e in the house.If it is not on,turn it on.
2. Press both volume buttons simultaneously.The currently selected source led will begin to flash,
indicating group mode.
3. Press the numeric keys (1- 8) on the numeric side of the KP- 22e corresponding to the zones you
want to add to the group.The zone you are creating the group from is automatically added to
the group (the user must know which rooms are assigned to which zones in order to set the group
up).The zones that are added to the group will turn on if they were not already on.
4.After all the desired zones are added to the group,press the desired source key for the group.
This will exit group mode (led stops flashing),and set all the zones in the group to that
source.Selecting a source on any keypad in the group will cause the rest of the zones in the group
to follow.
5.Adjust the volume for the zone your in.The other zones in the group will set their volume the
same.A 30 second timer resets every time a volume key is pressed.When the volume has not
been adjusted for 30 seconds,the volume settings will stop tracking each other in the group.
This is so you can set a general listening level for all grouped zones in the beginning,and then go
around later and make any necessary volume adjustments on a room-by-room basis.
6. There are three ways to delete a group.
1) Go into group mode and create a new group.The old group will be deleted.
2) Go into group mode and press the zero button.The group will be deleted.
3) Perform an all off from any keypad.For the first two methods,the group is deleted,but the
zones that were in the group maintain their current status.For the third method,the group is
deleted,and all zones turn off.
