7. When I select input #1, no sound plays through. Inputs #2 through #8 work just fine.
a) Make sure the source plugged into input #1 is actually working by trying it on one of the other
"working" inputs.
b) If the source is proved to be OK, plug it into #1.
c) Connect an IR receiver to a zone IR input.
d) With the source playing, aim the RC68 at the IR receiver and press input #1 and then the TRIM
button.
e) Press the VOLUME up button to achieve max. volume, then down a step or two.
f) Press input #2, then ADJ-OFF. Input #1 should now play OK.
g) Go to SETUP PROCEDURES and redo the Input Level TRIM adjustments.
8. I have a keypad (or an IR receiver) connected to one of the zones through a long length of
multiconductor shielded cable (sometimes even with very long lengths of unshielded cable).
Commands for some of the components work just fine, but others do not work at all or are very
intermittent.
a) Connect a 470 Ohm 1/8 Watt resistor between INPUT and GND on each of the offending zones. Refer
to Fig. 7 under INSTALLATION section for details.
The capacitance of the shielded cable prevents high bit rate commands from passing through unaltered.
The resistor effectively discharges the capacitance, correcting the condition.
