RECORD/ZONE 2

Operation

The DC-1 is designed to be the control center of any system. As such, there

are separate outputs for easy integration of external recording devices as

well as additional “zones” in multi-room installations.

The Record and Zone 2 outputs on the DC-1 are wired in parallel so that the

input selection will always be the same for both. For example, if the CD input

is selected for Record, the CD input is also output to Zone 2. The only

difference between the Record and Zone 2 outputs is that Zone 2 has its own

volume control, while the Record output level is fixed. When the DC-1 is

powered up, the Zone 2 output is muted.

The DC-1 normally assigns any input selected for the Main zone (indicated

by a lit green LED at the front panel input button), to the Record and Zone

2 outputs as well. Although this will be appropriate for installations where

the same input is desired for all three outputs, a different input can easily be

assigned to the Record and Zone 2 outputs. This allows any input to be

selected for the Main zone, while leaving the Record/Zone 2 outputs

unaffected. The procedure for assigning these outputs is described below.

To assign the current input to the Record/Zone 2 outputs, press and hold

REC/ZONE 2 until the red LEDs at the appropriate front panel input button

and at the front panel REC/ZONE 2 button light.

To clear the assignment, press and hold REC/ZONE 2 until the LEDs turn

off.

For Example:

VCR2 is selected for the Main output (and its front panel green LED is lit).

Pressing and holding down the remote control or front panel

REC/ZONE 2 button will light the red LED above the front panel

REC/ZONE 2 button as well as the red LED above the currently selected

input (VCR2).

You have now assigned VCR2 to the Record/Zone 2 outputs. In this state,

new input selections will not affect the Record/Zone 2 outputs.

Now, suppose you want to change the Record/Zone 2 assignment to the CD

input. To do this, press CD and press and hold REC/ZONE 2 until the red

front panel LEDs turn off.

You have now cleared the previous Record/Zone 2 assignment. To assign

CD to the Record/Zone 2 outputs, press and hold REC/ZONE 2 again. The

red LED above the front panel REC/ZONE 2 button as well as the red LED

above the CD input will light.
