REC OUT/ZONE 2/OFF buttons [36-38]
These buttons allow you to use the TX-SR800 to output to a remote

Press the REC OUT button to output the audio and video signals to a
recording component for recording. Press the ZONE 2 button to
enjoy the output from the TX-SR800 in a different room, which is
referred to as the 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 8
seconds. That source will be output for recording or viewing in the
remote zone.
To set the output to the source channel, press the desired button
(REC OUT or ZONE 2) twice in succession. To turn off the output,
press the desired button (REC OUT or ZONE 2) and then press the
OFF button within 8 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. When ZONE 2 is selected, REC OUT is
automatically fixed to SOURCE.
