Zone Selection Buttons
2.5.1 Routing audio to a zone
In our example we have 2 input sources and 4 zones. Selecting which zone receives which audio is very simple. The but-
tons on the left side of the LCD are the zone selection buttons.(see Fig 2.5B)
Fig 2.5B
For each zone there are 8 possible inputs to select and the off position which is the default. Each time one of these zone
selection buttons is pressed the next input source is routed to that particular zone. This is displayed on the screen by an
“*”. For instance in our example we want to route the DVD player (input 2) to the main bar (zone 1). Pressing zone se-
lection button 1 twice will move the “*” 2 positions from the off position to input 2, thus routing the DVD player to zone
1. Continuing to press the zone 1 button will move the “*” through all the inputs and then to the off position where the
“*” will no longer be visible.
By pressing the zone 2 selection button twice we can also route the DVD player to zone 2 and so on.
In the example below in Fig 2.5C (input 2) is routed to the main bar (zone 1), the beer garden (zone 2) and the restaurant
(zone 3). While the tuner (input 1) is routed to the kitchen (zone 4).
