Multiroom Operation 34 Remote Room Control Operation of the AVR85's multiroom system from a remote room location is very similar to use from the main room, but it requires prior installation of an optional remote infrared sensor, as well as the audio power amplifier and speakers. An additional optional AVR85 remote control unit or a compatible remote programmed with the AVR85 codes is also required. 1. Using the remote control, press the Multi button h to turn the receiver on and activate the multiroom system. 2. If the multiroom system has been set to VARIABLE in SET UP MENU 4 you may change the volume or source using the appropriate volume buttons on the remote being used. If the multiroom volume has been set to FIXED the volume or source may not be changed. 3. The AVR85's tuner has been selected as the multiroom source you may tune stations or search presets using a Harman Kardon compatible remote. If Harman Kardon compatible components are connected to the AVR85's rear panel Remote Control Output jack d the remote may also be used to control CD players and cassette decks. 4. To turn the multiroom feed off, press the Multi button h. NOTE: The multiroom system may also be operated from the remote control in either the main room or the remote location through the MULTI ROOM SELECTOR function accessed through the on-screen menu system. After reaching the MULTI ROOM SEL menu (see figure #18) use the ‹ or › buttons i to select a source. This will automatically turn the multiroom system on, as indicated by the Multi indicator D in the Information Display. Memory Backup This product is equipped with a memory backup system that preserves tuner presets and system configuration information if the unit is accidentally unplugged or subject to a power outage. This memory will last for approximately one week, after which time all information must be re-entered. System Reset In the rare case where the unit's operation or the displays seem abnormal, the cause may involve the erratic operation of the system's memory or microprocessor. To correct this problem, first unplug the unit from the AC wall outlet and wait at least three minutes. After the pause, reconnect the AC power cord and check the unit's operation. If the system still malfunctions, a system reset may clear the problem. To clear the entire system memory of the unit, press and hold the MEMO ^ and CLEAR & buttons until CLEAR MEMO appears in the front panel display. Release the buttons and note that the unit will turn off and then on. Remember that once you have cleared the memory in this fashion it will be necessary to re-establish all system configuration information and tuner presets. If the system is still operating incorrectly, there may have been an electrostatic discharge or severe AC line interference that has corrupted the memory or microprocessor. If a reset does not solve the problem, consult an authorized Harman Kardon service depot.
