Nuvo Stereo System - Manual (Page 38)

Exclusive Source Control: Checking this box gives this zone
exclusive “do not disturb” control of any chosen source. Other zones
will have the ability to listen to that source, but they will not have
any specific function control.
Disable IR: This choice disables IR communication with the Main
Source Hub. It is important to remember that IR passthrough from a
third party remote control is not possible across the electrical wiring.
“Disable IR” eliminates all IR functionality from the Control Pad. This
is intended for systems where only NuVoNet components control is
desired. In this case, IR control is not necessary.
Source Grouping: This allows for one zone to automatically listen
to the same source as all other zones in the group. This is a very
useful feature for a large open area where it is not practical for more
than one source to be playing at one time. The advantage of the zone
group is that each Control Pad within the group has the ability to
turn on or off, mute, and control volume independently. This drop-
down menu allows any zone to be assigned to a group, or as an
individual zone with no group affiliation. Up to four distinct groups
can be created.
Lock Zone By Default: This check box turns on a function that
automatically prevents any functionality from the zone until the
assigned security code is entered. Primarily, the function prevents an
outside zone from being turned on except when the homeowner
really wants to listen to it. The default code is 5555.
Display Time While Zone Off: Checking this box causes the
Control Pad to automatically display the current time when the zone
is turned off. In normal operation, the time is always displayed in
the upper right corner. The time is automatically set according to the
computer’s setting when the configuration is downloaded to the
Renovia Main Source Hub.
Do-Not-Disturb: This Section is used to lock out system-wide
commands from a specific zone.
No Mute: The Renovia System has a small accessory
called the MI1, Mute Interrupt (see section 9.2. NV-
MI1 Mute Interrupt Adaptor) which is
designed to mute all zones when the phone or
doorbell rings. This is defeated on a zone by zone basis
by checking the “No Mute” box.
No Page:
The Renovia System is capable of paging
through audio source input 6. This involves a phone
system that has a paging audio output and a means to
provide a voltage, or contact closure as a trigger. This
control is set in the System Settings tab (see section
6. 6.2 External Mute: Paging Trigger).
No Party: Master and Party Mode refer to the ability
to turn all zones on simultaneously. In some zones
you may not want this function.
Enabled Zone Sources: This section allows individual sources to be
turned off for specific zones. A source that is turned off will not
display in that zone. This is particularly useful in preventing child
access to a source dedicated to adult listening.
Display Settings: The overall brightness and AutoDim feature for
each Control Pad are set using these drop-down menus. The first
menu is the display brightness. The choices are Dimmest, Dim, Not
So Bright, Normal, Bright, Brighter, Brightest. The second
menu sets the duration for the AutoDim feature. These range from
AutoDim Disabled, to AutoDim Enabled (15 Sec up to 1 Hour).
The next menu sets a specific AutoDim level. AutoDim
Brightness Off removes all display and backlighting. Using
AutoDim Brightness Low, AutoDim Brightness Medium, or
AutoDim Brightness High reduces the level of brightness, but
does not make the Control Pad completely dark.
4 Ohm speakers (NV-RVZA50 Only): This check box should be set
to change the zone amplifier output from 50 watts at 8 ohms to 50
watts at 4 ohms, depending on the choice of speakers installed in
the zone.
Loudness Compensation ON: This box defaults to checked and
enables an automatic bass and treble boost when the zone is at a
low listening level. This EQ gradually flattens out as the zone volume
is increased. Unchecking the box turns this function off.
