from affecting any other zone in any way, even when the receiver is in
zone mode following a change to a zone.
The discrete option does not affect the control of the zones from the front
panel buttons in any way.
Note: The DISCRETE function is not available on all models and
is dependent on the software version installed. The DISCRETE
function is intended for use by a Rotel dealer or installer only.
Rotel’s use of discrete IR commands in multi-zone models provides easier
integration with IR control systems, making control possible from a single
IR input. For Rotel dealers or installers, further information is available on
the Rotel website: www.rotel.com

Change settings on the OTHER OPTIONS menu by highlighting the
desired line using the UP/DOWN buttons and using the +/– buttons to
step through the available settings. To return to the MAIN menu, press
the ENTER button. Press the MENU/OSD button on the remote to cancel
the display and return to normal operation.
Video/HDMI Setup
The VIDEO/HDMI menu deals with the configuration of the HDMI and
Component output for high-definition video display devices. See the
Video Inputs & Outputs section of this manual.
VIDEO OUT FORMAT: Specifies the video resolution and format of
the video output at the TV MONITOR outputs. The receiver will scale all
video inputs up to this specified resolution for a perfect match with the
native resolution of your HDTV monitor. Can be 480p/576p, 720p,
1080i, 1080p.
HDMI AUDIO MODE: options are AMP MODE and TV MODE. In
AMP MODE the HDMI Audio and other audio (analog or digital) inputs
are processed and amplified by the receiver for output to the connected
speakers. TV MODE (pass-through) provides HDMI Audio and other
audio (analog or digital) outputs for use with an audio-capable display
device. In TV MODE, there is no output from the receiver’s speaker
terrminals.
Zone 2–4 Setup
The ZONE SETUP menu provides settings and configuration options
related to the operation of the remote zones. This menu is reached by
highlighting the ZONE line on the MAIN menu and pressing ENTER.
ZONE: Specifies the zone to configure, ZONE 2, 3, or 4. Each zone is
configured individually.
SOURCE: Specifies a source for listening in the selected zone. Options
are CD, TUNER, TAPE, VIDEO 1–5, SOURCE, and OFF. Selecting the
SOURCE option links the zone source to the source selected for the main
zone so that the remote zone will hear the same source as the main
zone. Selecting the OFF option turns the zone off.
VIDEO INPUT: Specifies a video source (Composite Video only) for the
selected zone. The options available are Composite 1, 2 and 3 and OFF.
(If SOURCE, above, is set to OFF, the VIDEO INPUT selection will not be
available.)
VOLUME SETUP: configures the remote zone outputs for VARIABLE or
FIXED volume levels. VARIABLE allows control of the volume settings in
the remote zone from the receiver’s front panel or from a remote control/
IR repeater in the zone. FIXED output disables the volume control. In this
mode, the remote zone level can be fixed at the level specified on the
next line, thus optimizing system performance when sending a fixed level
signal to a preamp or amplifier with its own volume adjustment.
VOLUME: In VARIABLE output mode, this line shows the current volume
setting for remote zone. In FIXED output mode, this volume setting
establishes a permanent fixed output level for the remote zone.
Move the highlight to the desired line using the UP/DOWN buttons and
use the +/– buttons to adjust the volume level. To return to the MAIN
menu, press the ENTER button. Press the MENU/OSD button on the
remote to cancel the display and return to normal operation.
TURN ON VOL: Specifies a default volume level to be used each time
the remote zone is activated. You can select LAST to have the zone
activate with the last previously used volume setting. Or, you specify a
volume from MIN (full mute) to MAX, in 1dB increments. Note that this
setting cannot exceed the MAX VOL established in the next line of the
menu.
MAX VOL: Specifies the maximum volume level for the remote zone. The
volume cannot be adjusted above this level. Settings range from MIN to
MAX, in 1dB increments.
12V TRIGGER: The receiver has six 12V trigger outputs (labeled 1–6)
that supply a 12V DC signal to turn on Rotel components and other
components as needed. This menu item turns on specific 12V trigger
outputs whenever the indicated zone is activated. The six 12V Trigger
