Installation manual

Expansion Outputs (Fixed)
These are secondary, fixed, unity gain outputs for each Zone which are
specifically designed for connection to an MA-361 Twelve Channel Digital
Amplifier with up to six EM-401 Volume/Tone Control Modules or a
PX-603 Multi-Room Expander. Up to three Expansion Rooms may be
added to any Zone.
Expansion Outputs may also be used as fixed outputs to an amp that powers
speakers through passive attenuators (autoformers). The output signal is
determined by the source selected in the Zone. Signal is present at the
EXPANSION OUTPUT any time the corresponding Zone is on.
IR Outputs
Outputs 1-8
Audio sources connected to the PX-700 are controlled by IR commands
taught to the PX-700. Source specific
IR OUTPUTS
for each of eight audio
inputs allow multiple tuners, CD players or tape decks of the same brand
to be controlled independently. IR commands are sent to the sources
either via a
1
⁄
8
" mono mini-plug from the IR Out to an IR input jack on
the source equipment or through an IR emitter attached to the IR receiver
on the source. This is necessary when more than one source uses the same
IR command set. The jacks are source specific; only the IR commands
programmed in the Source 1 button press, for example, will play through
IR OUT 1 (or as designated in Installation Manager).
NOTE: Use any emitter compatible with a 9-12
VDC output.
All IR Output
The
ALL IR Output transmits all the IR information transmitted by any
other IR Output. The jack marked
ALL may be connected to a blaster-
type IR output device for control of multiple sources. Or, you may use
it with a
1
⁄
8
" mini-plug to control source components which have opto-
isolated IR input and output jacks on their rear panels. When using these
components, connect the output of the
ALL jack to the IR input on one
component then out to the next one in the stack. Cascade from one
source to the next until all are connected.
NOTE: The cascaded connection described above will not allow independent
control of multiple sources of the same type. These must be connected to the
rear panel jacks using separate emitters from each source specific
IR OUTPUT.
Connect an emitter for each source controlled by the PX-700.
