Zone 2 and Zone 3

—Continued

The 12V triggers A, B, and C can be used to turn on 12V

trigger-capable components automatically when they are

selected as the input source. The triggers can be set so

that they activate when a connected component is

selected as the input source for the main room, Zone 2,

Zone 3, or any combination of rooms.

When triggered, the output from a 12V TRIGGER OUT

goes high (+12 volts, 100 milliamperes max).

Hookup

•

Use a miniplug cable to connect the AV controller’s

12V TRIGGER OUT A, B, or C jack to the 12 V trig-

ger input on a connected component.

When several components are turned on simultaneously

by using triggers A, B, and C, depending on the type of

components, a large amount of current may be drawn

momentarily. To prevent this, you can delay trigger sig-

nals A, B, and C individually. Another application for

trigger delay is eliminating the “thump” noise that’s

sometimes heard when a source component is turned on.

Delaying the trigger signal for your power amplifier so

that it’s the last component to be turned on will accom-

plish this.
