Page 80 MZC-88 Installation Instructions
1. Check “This Zone Ignores Other Zone Initiations” to have the selected zone NOT respond to whole house/party mode
key presses of other zones (i.e., a room such as a baby’s room to be kept quiet during a whole-house party).
2. Checking both of these will allow the selected zone to send party mode commands, but not accept party mode commands
from other Zones.
3. Click Apply.
Mute Key Functionality
1. These selections allow either the MZC-88 Internal Preamp Muting or the external EZ-Pad Relay Speaker Muting to be
controlled by the designated Mute key in a Zone.
2. Click Apply.
For more information on this functionality, refer to the “Muting Relays” section.
EVENTS SETUP
This feature permits the programming of System and Zone functions that occur with ON/OFF and other specialized events.
It allows functions such as Power OFF macros to be programmed in one place, rather than having to place such commands
under many keypad key locations. It can also result in much shorter macros to reduce execution times of Power OFF events.
Some Events programming has been covered in previous sections, however an explanation of each follows:
SYSTEM TURNING ON (1
ST
ZONE ON)
1. To access, click EVENTS SETUP under the Project Content tab. Refer to Figure 74.
Figure 74
Accessing Events Setup
2. Double click System Turning ON (1
st
Zone ON) in the Events Setup pop-up. A list of Source Outputs 1 through 8
appears.
Commands placed here will be sent from the Source IR OUT jacks on the MZC-88 to turn ON or otherwise control the
respective Source(s) when the system is first turned ON (1
st
Zone ON).
3. For instance, a Power ON command for each could be placed here. As an example, click Source Output 3. (The Internal
Tuners do not require power management, so for this example Sources 1 and 2 will be skipped.)
4. Double click an IR command from the CMD Library for a typical source, such as Power ON for the SAT/DSS receiver,
placing it on the Command List. Refer to Figure 74.
