[. . . ] (Refer to ZONE2 (ZONE3) on the diagram below. ) · Settings can be made at "Power Amp Assign" in the "System Setup Menu" so that the same source as the ZONE2 (ZONE3) pre-out terminals can be played from the speakers connected to the ZONE2 (ZONE3) speaker terminals ( page 116, 117). · When a sold separately room-to-room remote control unit (DENON RC-616, 617 or 618) is wired and connected between the MAIN ZONE and ZONE2 (ZONE3), the remote-controllable devices in the MAIN ZONE can be controlled from ZONE2 (ZONE3) using the remote control unit. To control playback devices other than the ones above, either use that device's remote control unit or preset a separately sold programmable remote control unit. · For instructions on installation and operation of separately sold devices, refer to the devices' operating instructions. Multi-zone playback using the ZONE2 and ZONE3 PREOUT terminals ¢ When using the power amplifier as the MAIN ZONE output · The AVR-4806CI is equipped with pre-out terminals for which the volume is adjustable and video output terminals (composite and S-Video) as the ZONE2/ZONE3 output terminals. · When using just one speaker in ZONE2 (ZONE3), select "Mono" at "Channel Setup" in the "System Setup Menu" ( page 115). In this case, the ZONE2 (ZONE3) monaural output is output from both the left and right channels of the ZONE2 (ZONE3) PREOUT terminals, so connect to either one.

Turn the FUNCTION knob to select the source you want to output appears on the display. Start playing the source to be output. For operating instructions, refer to the manuals of the respective components. 1 2 3 Press the ZONE3/REC SELECT button to display the "ZONE3 SOURCE" on the display. · The MULTI indicator light. ZONE3 RECOUT Turn the FUNCTION knob to select the source you want to output appears on the display. Start playing the source to be output. For operating instructions, refer to the manuals of the respective components. · The signals of the source selected in the ZONE3 mode are also output from the VCR-1, VCR-2, VCR-3 and CDR/TAPE recording output terminals. · Digital signals are not output from the ZONE2 and ZONE3 audio output terminals. · Digital outputs of the OPTICAL2, 3 and 4 OUT normally switch in association with the ZONE3/REC SELECT mode, but if "ZONE2 SELECT" is selected at "Digital Out Assign", the source switches in association with the "ZONE2 SELECT" mode for the OPTICAL2 OUT digital output terminal ( page 121). 92 Advanced Operation Remote control unit operations during multi-source playback 1 2 3 4 Select the zone which you want to operate pressing the AMP buttons. Example: ZONE2 (Remote control unit) Press the ON button to turn on the zone power. Press the OFF button to turn off the zone power. Select the input source you wish to output. The volume of the outputs of the different zones can be adjusted with the VOLUME button on the remote control unit. The output level can be controlled only if the zone volume level is set "variable" at "Volume Control" in the "System Setup Menu" ( page 118). DEFAULT VOLUME SETTING ZONE2 : ­40 dB ZONE3 : ­40 dB The zone volume can be adjusted within the range of ­80 to 18 dB, in steps of 1 dB. · Press the MUTE button to mute the audio temporarily. · Cancelling muting mode: Press the MUTE button again, or press the VOLUME button on the remote control unit. 93 Advanced Operation Other function ZONE3/REC SELECT DIRECT/STEREO INPUT MODE SURROUND MODE DIRECT/STEREO FUNCTION SURROUND PHONES INPUT MODE MODE CD ON SCREEN Playing Super Audio CDs with an IEEE1394 cable 1 Select the input source to which IEEE1394 was assigned at the "IEEE1394 Assign" ( page 102) in the system setup. Example: CD When playing DSD signals in the DIRECT or PURE DIRECT mode, the DSD signals are converted into analog signals. When playing in other surround modes, the DSD signals are first converted into PCM signals. The input signal and playing status can be checked by pressing the ON SCREEN button on the remote control unit. Example: When DSD multi-channel signals are played in the DIRECT mode (Main unit) (Remote control unit) · The IEEE1394 indicator lights.
