SYSTEM APPLICATIONS

Home Theater Plus Second Zone

The multizone system shown in Diagram 22 features the M8 when used to add multiple rooms of amplied audio to the Zone 2

OUT on an A/V Receiver, (in this case a Procient M80). This system is a two zone system, meaning two dierent sources can be

played at the same time. The home theater is Zone 1 and can select any source connected to the M80. The M80 features a Zone 2

OUT that can output line level audio and composite or S-Video. (For purpose of example only the Zone 2 audio connections will

be detailed here. Please refer to the M80 Installation and User Guide for additional information.)

Note: The M80 allows connection of 5.1 or 7.1 surround speaker congurations. Those speakers are not shown in Diagram 22.

Please refer to the Owners Manual if using another brand receiver for information on connections/limitations.

M80 Source Connections

Audio/Video sources are connected to the M80 Receiver in a normal manner. In the theater zone, they are selected and played in

a normal manner using the front panel controls or a remote control. Sources are typically selected and controlled in Zone 2 using

an IR Remote via an IR repeater system. The selected sources can be the same in both zones or a dierent source in each zone. The

source selected by Zone 2 will play to all rooms in Zone 2.

The M80 features analog and digital audio and video inputs. Any

of these inputs can be selected by the home theater. Zone 2 can

only select analog audio inputs, therefor any source that is to be played in Zone 2, must have analog audio connections to the

M80.

Bus In

The M8 is connected to the M80 Receiver Zone 2 OUT. The Zone 2 OUT is a xed line level audio output that is connected to the

M8 BUS IN. The M8 BUS IN audio signal will output through any chann

el(s) that are set to BUS L (left) or BUS R (right).

1. Connect the M80 Zone 2 OUT to the M8 BUS IN.

2. Set the Channel Input switches for all channels that are to output the BUS IN to BUS L (left) or BUS R (right).

Bus Loop

Source selection and audio processing for the home theater zone and Zone 2 are completely independent. The M80 Zone 2 OUT is

a dedicated line level audio output. It is not necessary to feed the BUS LOOP back to the M80.

The BUS LOOP can be used to add additional M8 ampliers for additional rooms of amplied audio to Zone 2. Up to ve M8s can

be connected in this manner.

1. Connect the M8 BUS LOOP to the next M8 BUS IN. Repeat to connect up to ve M8s (20 amplied rooms).

Power Mode Switch

For convenience, the M8 can be setup to turn ON/OFF automatically when the M80 is turned ON/OFF. There are two a

utomatic

power modes: Audio Sensing (Auto ON) and Voltage Sensing (Trigger).

Audio Sensing

Requires no additional connections. When the M8 detects audio on any input it will automatically turn all channels ON.

1. Set the Pow

er Mode Switch to Auto ON.

2. Set the Front Panel ON/OFF switch to the ON (in) position.

Voltage Sensing

Requires connection of a 3-30 V AC/DC control voltage. For the example shown, the M80 Trigger OUT (if not used for M80 sub-

woofer trigger) or a 12V power supply, connected to the switched outlet on the M80, can be connected to the M8 Trigger jack.

1. Connect a power supply to the M80 switched outlet

. Connect the power supply to the M8 Trigger jack, (maintain

proper polarity); or connect the M80 Trigger OUT to the M8 Trigger jack with a mono mini-mini cable.

2. Set the Power Mode Switch to Trigger. Set the Front Panel ON/OFF switch to the ON (in) position.

Channel Mode/Speaker Connections

Set the Bridged switches to OFF for normal mode. Connect speakers using the normal mode/multiroom conguration.
