Outline
The TX-DS787 allows you to connect another set of speakers and
place them in a different room or separated area for listening to
music. This other room or area is referred to as the remote zone
(Zone 2), while the room where the TX-DS 787 is located is the
main zone. In addition, the IR IN ZONE 2 input allows you to
control the TX-DS787 from the remote zone (Zone 2) with the
remote controller even though the remote zone is physically
separated. The diagram below shows how to make the proper
connections for the remote zone.
To be able to use the remote controller in the remote zone
(Zone 2), you must connect one of the following (sold
separately):
• Onkyo’s Multi-Room System kits (IR Remote Controller
Extension System), or
• Multiroom A/V distribution and control systems from Niles
®
and Xantech
®
to name a few
Make connection as shown below. Do not plug the equipment into
the power source until the connection is complete.
