Zone 2 control connections
The AVr360 also allows remote control from Zone 2.
Z2 IR
This allows the AVr360 to be
controlled remotely from Zone 2
via Infra-red remote control.
Connect a remote Ir receiver
in Zone 2 to allow control of
the AVr360 from this listening/
viewing area.
For more information on remote Ir receivers, see ‘Z1
Ir’ on page E-17.
TRIG Z2
This allows the AVr360 to remotely switch on devices
in Zone 2 when Zone 2 is selected. For example you
could set your television in Zone 2 to switch on when
‘Zone 2’ is selected on AVr360.
For more information on triggers, see ‘Trigger
connectors’ on page E-17. Please note that not all AV devices
have this feature, nor are triggers essential for listening
and viewing in a separate zone.
multi-room
set up
The AVr360 allows independent routing and control of
analogue audio and Composite video to a separate set of
equipment, typically used for a second living space, e.g.,
bedroom or lounge.
The connection guide on the following page shows how
the AVr360 is normally connected in a multi-room
installation.
Zone 2
Zone 2 receives only signals obtained by the AVr360
from the analogue audio and Composite video inputs.
The analogue inputs are required because there is
no analogue-to-digital, digital-to-analogue or DSP
processing available for Zone 2 signals – the AVr360
only converts video formats for Zone 1.
For this reason, we recommend that in addition to any
digital connections, the analogue audio and Composite
video outputs from your source devices are connected to
the AVr360.
Video outputs
The Z2 Composite video output connectors of the
AVr360 should be connected to the analogue video
inputs (usually labelled ViDEO iN or COMPOSiTE ViDEO iN )
of the display device in Zone 2.
audio outputs
The Z2 OUT , R and l phono sockets should be connected
to the analogue audio inputs (Usually labelled
ANAlOGUE AUDiO iN ) of the Zone 2 display device, or
to the inputs of an additional stereo power amplifier in
Zone 2 (for example, the Arcam P38).
Speaker outputs
If the main zone has a 5.1-channel surround sound
speaker system (not a 7.1-channel system), the spare
SBL and SBr speaker outputs can be used to power
speakers in Zone 2, so that a power amplifier is not
required. To configure the outputs, navigate to the “Spkr
Types” option in the Setup Menu and set the option
“Use Channels 6+7 for” to “Zone 2” (see page E-32).
