CONFIGURATION 7 – MORE THAN ONE ROOM IN A ZONE
A zone can be divided up into as many as five individual rooms with separate On/Off and Volume controls.
A Niles Silencer Volume Control located along with the Master Keypad in each room is required in addition
to Niles Expanders.
In Figure 13, Zone #6 has been expanded into two rooms that can be On/Off individually and be set at different
volume levels. Impedance magnification is incorporated in the Silencer to enable the safe connection of multiple
pairs of speakers to a single zone amplifier. Connection of three rooms with Master Keypads and Silencers to a
single zone of the A4.6Ci is accomplished with a single Niles Expander. Five rooms is accomplished using two
Expanders (see the Expander manual for more details).
