ational and audio parameters. Open the D
EVICE menu and select ZONE
SETUP. The ZONE SETUP screen (
Figure 42
) will appear.
NOTE: Any changes made on the Zone Setup screen must be
transferred to the DAB1 via the USB connection before they
will take effect. See Transferring System Information to the
DAB1, on page 25.

Check this box if you want this zone to
be enabled for Party Mode operation. Party Mode links the S
OURCE, MUTE
and ON/OFF functions of enabled zones. For more information about
Party Mode operation, see
Appendix 1: “Party Mode”
, on page 54.
• When a source is selected with a P
RESS-AND-HOLD, any zones enabled for
Party Mode will turn ON to their D
EFAULT VOLUME settings (see below).
Any zones enabled for Party Mode that are already ON will switch to
the selected source.
• You can use a keypad controller or the remote control to adjust the volume level in a zone that is enabled for Party Mode.
DDeeffaauulltt VVoolluummee::
This slider sets the zone’s turn-on volume. The zone will always turn ON at this volume no matter what
the zone’s volume was set at when it was turned OFF.
MMaaxxiimmuumm VVoolluummee::
This slider sets the zone’s maximum volume level. By setting this to a level that eliminates distortion
and prevents over-driving the speakers you can avoid damage to speakers and in-wall volume controls.
• During normal use, once a zone has reached its maximum volume, pressing the V
OLUME UP button on a keypad or the
remote control will not increase the zone’s volume level.
PPaaggee VVoolluummee::
This slider sets the Paging volume in the zone. Set this to a level that allows the paging device to be clearly
heard in the zone without distortion or over-driving the speakers.
NOTE: Be sure to check the Page Volume with the actual paging device after the system is installed
to correct for too low or too high a level, feedback, etc.
