TRIGGERS / IR / RS-232
When a trigger output on the AVM 30 is connected to the trigger input of another component, such as a
power amplifier or video projector, the AVM 30 can turn the component on or off according to the trigger’s
Setup. For components that do not use triggers, a triggerable power bar may work (see your dealer).
• Trigger1 and Trigger2: Provide standard trigger output of 12 volts with up to 50 mA of current,
suitable for typical source components and most amplifiers.
• Trigger3: Provides an output of 12 volts with up to 200 mA of current, suitable for triggers on
motorized projection equipment and very high power amplifiers.
There is a quarter of a second delay between each trigger to minimize momentary line voltage drops caused
by switching on too many devices at the same time.
All Triggers:
When on ‘Disabled’ all triggers remain off. When on ‘Enabled’ the trigger chart below is used to set
conditions. For custom installations, ‘RS-232 Ctrl’ uses external control over all triggers.
Set Trigger:
Highlighting ‘b. SET TRIGGER 1’ and then pressing SELECT displays this menu – in the example shown,
TRIGGER 1 activates whenever MAIN power is turned on:
Under each of the four Paths, MAIN, ZONE2 (Z2), ZONE3 (Z3), and RECORD (REC), notice that there are 40
available Sources (40 dashes) that could be used to activate the trigger. After highlighting POWER ON or a
Source, press SELECT and use the
buttons to move from one Path to another, and then to set the trigger
to activate, use the
buttons to change the ‘–’ to a ‘*’ (be sure ALL TRIGGERS is set to ‘Enabled’).
