Name Entertainment Groups
Entertainment Groups allow multiple zones to be turned on and off together using the Party Mode
control. This feature is desirable for parties, to easily be able to select background music through
common areas. The zones within the groups will turn on, and play the same source. The zones
within the groups can be configured to each turn on to the same source, different sources or the
last source selected in each zone. Each zone within the group will turn on to it’s pre-set volume or
last volume set, as configured by zone. The individual zones will maintain local volume and mute
functions. A zone can only be part of one Entertainment Group and multiple groups can be active
at the same time.
This section names the Entertainment Groups. Building the groups will be done in a later section.

Name Wake-Up Groups
Wake-up Groups allow multiple zones or groups of zones to be automatically turned on at pre-
determined times, kind of like an alarm clock on steroids. Wake-Up is good for use as an alarm
clock with the added luxury of being programmable for any of the common sources (i.e. a zone
can turn on to the local TV News channel for traffic and weather or stock reports first thing in the
morning.) Wake-up can also be a good home security feature by programming different zones to
come on at different times with different sources to give a vacant home a ‘lived-in’ look.
