AV link technology can be used to: • Adjust or mute the volume output level of the connected YAMAHA AV receiver connected to the client. • Switch preset groups and stations when the input on the connected YAMAHA AV receiver is set to TUNER. • Switch the input of the connected YAMAHA AV receiver to play back songs selected from the client. YAMAHA AV link technology requires the use of an IR flasher (or infrared emitter), which issues AV link control commands to your YAMAHA AV receiver connected to the MCX-CA15 or I/O box. Notes • Only YAMAHA AV receivers currently support the AV link function. • Zone selection is only available with some YAMAHA AV receivers. For details, refer to the owner's manual for the receiver you are using. ■ AV link connections If you want to enjoy YAMAHA AV link technology, a YAMAHA AV receiver that supports AV link must be connected to the AUDIO OUT jacks on the MCX-CA15 or I/O box. Further, an IR flasher must be connected to the IR/CTRL jack on the MCX-CA15 or the IR OUT jack on the I/O box.
