Niles Audio ZR-8630AVZR-8630AV Stereo Receiver User Manual


 
LED Zone ON/OFF Indicators
Provide individual ON/OFF indication for each zone.
Zone Label Slots
Coined slot for placing included zone labels for easy
identification.
Tuner Controls
Radio station up/down, radio station preset, and tuner
selection buttons.
Tuner Display
Displays the most recent tuner selected manually on the
front panel. Then that tuner displays the most recent sta-
tion selected on that tuner. Also shown is the reception
mode (mono or stereo).
Removable Programming Cover
Conceals installer-only programming controls.
Main Power Switch
Turns the main power to the receiver ON and OFF.
Note: Equipment is not completely disconnected from the
main power source when power switch is in the OFF position.
Sensor for IR Capture
IR sensor captures IR commands that control the con-
nected source components.
Programming Controls and Indicators
Push buttons and LED prompts for system and IR pro-
gramming.
Zone ALL ON/PAGE Enable Switches
Individual DIP switches enable or disable system-wide
All ON commands and the paging feature.
DB-9 Computer Interface
Connects a laptop computer to back up and download pro-
gram configurations using ZR Source Library and Archiving
Software.
Sync Inputs
Video Inputs and Voltage Sync Inputs 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8
detect when a source component is ON/OFF for reliable sys-
tem activation. The HT mini-plug Sync Input senses voltage
for determining the ON/OFF status of a Home Theater sys-
tem that shares source components with the ZR-8630AV.
Paging Input
A mono RCA input accepts a paging signal from a tele-
phone system.
Keypad Inputs
Six female RJ-45 jacks for connecting Master Keypad
Modules.
System Expansion
Two female RJ-45 jacks for connecting multiple receivers
together in larger multi-zone systems.
Flasher Outputs
Six 3.5mm jacks provide an output connection for
IRC-2P MicroFlashers
, one for each connected source
component. A seventh output labeled ALL is designed for
the IRC-1P High-Output IR Flasher.
IR Input
A single 3.5mm jack provides an input connection for IR
commands sent from a Home Theater system to control
source components shared with a ZR-8630AV.
12V Control Outputs
One 3.5mm jack controls source components requiring
activation from a switched AC outlet by providing a 12V
DC trigger signal for use with voltage-triggered AC power
strips (i.e., Niles AC-3). Three zone-specific 3.5mm jacks
(for zones 4, 5, and 6) activate external amplifiers that
may be specified for those zones by providing a 12V DC
trigger signal when the corresponding zone activates.
Tuner Antenna Inputs
Dual female coaxial F-connectors and spring-loaded,
bare-wire jacks provide connections for the included
AM and FM antennas, or external antennas.
Audio Inputs
Six pairs of stereo RCA jacks provide input connections
for source components.
Video Inputs
Six RCA jacks provide composite video input connections
for the distribution of audio/video source components.
Video Outputs
Six RCA jacks provide zoned output connections for TVs
and video displays.
Individual Zone Preamplifier Outputs
Six pairs of stereo RCA jacks provide output connections
for external amplifiers used instead of, or in conjunction
with, the built-in ZR-8630AV amplifiers.
Fixed/Variable Preamplifier-Output Adjustment Switch
Two-position switches for zones 4, 5, and 6 set
the individual preamplifier outputs to a variable or a
fixed signal.
Removable Speaker Connector
Niles’ patented no-strip speaker connector provides con-
nection to speakers in the listening zones.
Removable Power Cord
An IEC removable power cord provides easy handling dur-
ing installation.
