After configuring the audio and video inputs, the next line down allows you to have messages con-
cerning the remote zone status (source selected, volume level, etc.) “reported” to the main zone’s
displays or not. Pressing the

Menu Control

button

when this line is highlighted turns the

reporting feature

ON

or

OFF

.

The last line on the

Remote Zone

menu allows you to select whether the remote zone has the

ability to control its volume level locally or is fed a fixed-level signal. Select the

Output Level

line and press the

or

Menu Control

button

to choose

FIXED

or

VARIABLE

. Note that if

the

FIXED

choice is selected, an additional line appears below, on which the

Menu Control

button

will raise the level and the

Menu Control

button will lower it.

This feature will be helpful in preventing “excess” volume levels from being selected in the remote
zone, or simply setting a low “background” level for that area.

Remote Zone Operation

To operate the 5.0 in the remote zone, simply press any of the six

Remote Zone Analog Input

buttons

R

under the sliding panel on the remote control. (These are the only inputs able to be sent

to the remote zone. Digital sources cannot be selected.) Pressing one of these buttons will turn the
5.0 on if it was off, and feed the selected audio (and associated video) into the remote zone. If the
video monitor is on in the primary zone, and the

Remote Zone

menu option

Rem Zone Msgs

is on, the status of the remote zone will be displayed on it and the front panel display until they time
out. If this option has not been chosen, operation of the remote zone will not be reported to the
displays in the main zone.

If the

Remote Zone

menu option for

VARIABLE

remote zone volume was chosen, the volume

may be controlled by use of the

Remote Zone Volume

buttons

S

. Otherwise, the remote zone

volume level is fixed. In either case, local audio may be muted by pressing the

Remote Zone Mute

button

T

; a second push will restore the audio.

When a remote zone session is complete, pressing the

Remote Zone Off

button

U

will turn of the

signal feeds to the remote zone, and, if the main zone is not in use, will put the 5.0 into standby.

System Reset

There are certain circumstances under which you may wish to return entire sections of custom pro-
gramming to the factory default settings. The 5.0 is sufficiently flexible to allow four different types of
reset. The first three reset only the (surround) Modes, Programs and Calibration Parameters (speakers
setup details). The fourth is a System reset, returning

ALL

user modifications to original factory settings.

The first three choices are:

Reset Modes

— Select this if you wish to make many changes to the

Customer

or

Party

Surround modes, starting from the original settings.

Reset Programs

— If you wish to reset the

Program

choices to the original settings.

Reset Calib Params

— This would be used if you are moving your loudspeakers, or are

changing (or adding) loudspeakers.

The last choice,

System Reset

may cure abnormal system or display operation due to erratic

operation of the system’s memory or microprocessor. Before attempting a system reset, try turning
the 5.0 off using the

Master Power

button

1

. After pushing this button so that it returns to the

“out” position, unplug the 5.0 from the wall outlet for at least three minutes, then reconnect the
plug, push the

Master Power

button

1

on, and see if the problem has been corrected. If not, a

System Reset may correct the problem.
