Room 2 Connections

Want to listen to a CD in the den while the kids are

watching a movie in the family room? Follow these

steps to connect the GFR-700HD to a sound system

in a second room.

Variable or Fixed Output?

Before you connect your Room 2 sound system, you

need to determine whether to use the Variable or

Fixed audio outputs:

• If your Room 2 sound system does NOT have its

own volume control (e.g., an ampliﬁer), use the

Variable outputs and adjust the Room 2 volume

from the GFR-700HD.

• If your Room 2 sound system DOES have its own

volume control (e.g., a stereo receiver or other

audio component), use the Fixed outputs and ad-

just the volume from the Room 2 device.

Connecting the Zone 2 Outputs

1 Connect the Room 2 ampliﬁer/audio compo-

nent.

• Using RCA cables, connect the Var or Fixed

outputs on the GFR-700HD to the line or aux

inputs on your Room 2 amplifer/audio com-

ponent.

• If you are using the Fixed outputs, make sure

the volume level on your external component

is turned all the way down before switching

to Room 2 to prevent damage to your speak-

ers.

Connecting the 12V DC Trigger

If your external device is equipped with a 12V DC

trigger, you can have the device power on automati-

cally when you select Room 2 from the GFR-700HD.

1 Connect the 12V DC trigger.

• Using a cable with two mono mini-plugs, con-

nect the 12V DC trigger jack from the GFR-

700HD to the 12V DC trigger jack on your

external component.

• Now when you press the Room 2 button, the

sound system in Room 2 will power on auto-

matically.

Connecting a Remote Sensor

If you want to be able to control the GFR-700HD while

in the second room, simply connect an IR sensor to

the Zone 2 remote input.

1 Connect the Zone 2 remote sensor.

• Using a remote sensor with a cable long

enough to reach between rooms, connect

the cable’s mini-plug into the Zone 2 IR input

jack on the GFR-700HD.

2 Attach the remote sensor in Room 2.

• Following the manufacturer’s instructions,

attach the remote sensor in a suitable place

in Room 2.
