IR Receive
When an IR signal is received by the VSC, it is sent directly to the Hi-Fi processor. Upon receiving the
IR data, the Hi-Fi processor will decode it and process certain commands locally and route all IR data to
connected source equipment. IR must be enabled for the VSC to send IR data to the amplifier.
Locally Processed IR
The twelve items that are locally processed at the amplifier are mute toggle, volume increment, volume
decrement, source change (one IR command for each of the six sources), power toggle, power on, and
power off. When you press any of these remote buttons, the IR data is sent to the Hi-Fi processor. The
Hi-Fi processor will respond by changing the required zone settings. Then the IR signal is routed to the
audio source that the zone is connected to. For example, when you press the mute toggle button on the
IR remote pointed at Zone 1 (connected to Source 3), the Hi-Fi processor will respond by muting Zone 1
and routing the IR data to Source 3.
If the volume increment or decrement IR command is received when the VSC is displaying either the
volume or source, then the display on the VSC is updated with the new volume. If the zone is currently
muted and the VSC is displaying either the volume or source, then the first volume increment or
decrement IR command will turn mute off and any subsequent commands will result in the volume
increasing or decreasing. Similarly if any of the source IR commands are received when the VSC is
displaying either the volume or source, then the display on the VSC is updated to show the new source.
Using the Remote Control
To use the Hi-Fi Remote Control, point it at the VSC
in the desired zone and press appropriate button(s)
as follows:
1) Power: This button turns the zone on and off.
2) Mute: This button turns mute on and off.
3) Source: These buttons select the audio source
to be heard in the zone.
4) Volume Down: This button decreases the
volume in the zone.
5) Volume Up: This button increases the volume
in the zone.
