personal greetings.

Configure the 12VDC control outputs for control of

external devices.

RS-232 Control Port -

Configure the main RJ-45 jack for RS-232

Plug n Play Timing -

system. This is useful when adjusting for digital error muting.

Zone ‘B’ Second zone -

Zone ‘1’ Home Theater

Max Level -

Set the maximum volume for the main theater zone. This can be used to protect your speakers

or ears from inadvertent excessive volume.

Zone ID -

The product ID (IR code set) can be adjusted if operation

with other B & K is gear is required. The default ID is 001 for the main
theater zone and 002 for Zone B. The preamplifier can be assigned to
any ID (B & K code-set) between 001 and 099. This allows ninety nine
different B & K surround processors to operate independently using
different remote controls. This feature is typically useful if multiple
surround processors are used in the same system (B & K CT whole
house audio systems). Zone A and Zone B cannot be assigned the
same code set. The code-set 000 operates both zones of the pream-
plifier simultaneously.

NOTE:

If the code set of the preamplifier is changed, you will need to reprogram the IR code of the remote

control being used. B & K offers the SR10.1 programming remote (supplied with the B & K Reference 51
Series2), the CK1.2 Keypad or MZ-128 remote.

V1 Output -

TAPE or LINE. The V1 output can be configured as an output for a second recording device in

Zone A (TAPE). The V1 output can also be configured as a Zone A line output to connect a second video
monitor and/or audio amplifier (LINE). As a record output, V1 will output the analog audio and video from the
selected input in Zone A except when V1 is selected. This prevents feedback through the recording device
which could damage your speakers. As a line output V1 will output the analog audio and video from whatever
input is selected in Zone A. Record/Line settings also apply to the Zone A optical and coaxial digital outputs.

Surround Modes -

Select AUTO or MANUAL. Auto or manual engages or disengages the B & K Plug n Play

System.

Auto -

If set to AUTO, each time an input is selected the Plug n Play system will scan the various source

signals and determine if a multi-channel digital bitstream is present. The main theater zone will then use
the maximum number of hardware speakers specified in the speaker setup menu.

Manual -

If set for MANUAL, each time an input is selected, the user will select the audio mode that will

be used with the source signal, regardless of a what bitstream is present. Manual mode allows the
preferences setup in the Surround audio mode to apply both to multi-channel and 2 channel source input
signals.
