Rec Out/Zone 2/Off buttons [54, 55]
These buttons allow you to use the DTR-7.2 to output to a remote
zone (Zone 2) or to another component for recording purposes (Rec
Out). Press the Rec Out button to output the audio and video signals
to a recording component for recording purposes. Press the Zone 2
button to enjoy the output from the DTR-7.2 in a different room,
which is referred to as a remote zone (Zone 2).
When either button is pressed, the currently selected input source for
recording or outputting to the remote zone is displayed in the front
panel display. If “SOURCE” is displayed, then the same input
source as that selected for the main zone will be output.
To select an input source, press the desired button (Rec Out or Zone
2) and then press one of the input source button within 5 seconds.
That source will be output for recording or viewing in the remote
zone.
To set the Rec Out or Zone 2 output to the source channel, press that
button twice in succession. To turn off the Rec Out or Zone 2 output,
press that button and then press the Off button within 5 seconds.
Note:
The Rec Out and Zone 2 buttons use the same circuit and therefore
cannot be used at the same time. When Rec Out is selected, nothing
is output to Zone 2, and vice versa. When Zone 2 is selected, Rec Out
is automatically fixed to SOURCE.
