5 Conﬁgurations

5.3.2 Zone Tab

The Zone Tab enables installation zones to be deﬁned and named, and provides access to

further sub-menus. Zones might be bar or restaurant areas for example, or dierent rooms

in a home. For all Zone Tab menus, the installation zone under conﬁguration is selected

by highlighting one of the zone identiﬁers (A, B, C or D) at the top of the page. Figure 5.3

illustrates the Zone Tab.

• The Source menu option enables inputs to be assigned to zones.

• The GPIO Volume Control option enables external volume control to be applied to

individual zones. The GPIO conﬁguration menu can be found under the Settings Tab.

• The Compressor option enables default or custom signal compression to be applied to

individual installation zones.

Note: Compression can be useful to reduce the volume dierence between loud and

quiet audio material. The lower the compression threshold is set, the more the dierence

between loud and soft will be reduced. The overall zone volume may need to be increased

when compression is used. The default compression parameters are appropriate for most

installations.
