VERVIEW AND UPPORTED
Sunfire receivers and preamp processors include an RS-232 port which is used to connect to the g!
system and provide full two-way communications, enabling reliable control as well as providing feedback
to the g! system when changes (such as the current source or volume levels) occur at the receiver.
S
UNFIRE DEVICES SUPPORT THE FOLLOWING FEATURES
Basic Source and Volume Control: Select any available source and control volume with two-way
feedback. Changes made at the receiver (turning the volume control, changing source) are immediately
reflected in the g! interface.
Multiple zones: The Sunfire TGR-401 has a second zone, which can be controlled as its own zone from
the g! interface.
Onboard Tuner: The Sunfire TGR-401 includes a built-in AM/FM tuner, which can play music in the main
or auxiliary zone. The tuner can be controlled from the standard AM/FM tuner interface in the g! system.
Optional Sirius Tuner: Sunfire receivers and preamp processors have an optional Sirius tuner which is
compatible with g! for control and 2 way feedback.
Any feature not specifically noted as "supported" is not supported.
