Zone 2 Connections

As an alternative to using the TGR-
401's internal ampli¿ ers to run your
Zone 2 speakers, you could use an
external power ampli¿ er. Connect the
ampli¿ er's line-level inputs to the TGR-
401 Zone 2 stereo outputs.
Speaker-level audio signals
From: Receiver speaker outputs
To: Zone 2 speaker inputs
Zone 2 can play stereo analog
sources independently of the Main
Zone, or play the same source. Zone
2 can only play a digital source if
the Main Zone is playing the same
source.
A composite video output is avail-
able for monitoring in Zone 2. Note
that the video sources you would like
to play in Zone 2 must use compos-
ite video, or you will not see video in
Zone 2.
If you want the TGR-401 speaker-
level outputs to run your Zone 2
speakers, under the OSD Binding
Post menu, set "POWERED Z2" to
ON.
Speaker wires are connected to
the speaker outputs as shown above,
and are run out to Zone 2 speakers,
located in another room or area of
your house.
If you have an external power
ampli¿ er to run your Zone 2 speakers,
connect the TGR-401 Zone 2 line-lev-
el stereo outputs to the inputs of your
ampli¿ er. Connect your Zone 2 speak-

ers to the ampli¿ er with speaker wire.
This method provides full-time 7.1 for
the home theater, plus an ampli¿ ed
Zone 2.
The wire from an optional IR sensor
is shown connected to the TGR-401
Zone 2 IR input. The TGR-401 is com-
patible with most makes of IR sensors
and equipment.
The sensor can be located in a
suitable area of Zone 2, allowing you
complete control of the volume and
source selection. Zone 2 can also be
controlled from the front panel, using
the remote's Zone 2 buttons.
The optional Olé-2SF Film Interac-
tive touchpads are precon¿ gured to
operate Zone 2. They connect to ei-
ther the TP1 or TP2 connectors on the
TGR-401 rear panel. The touchpads
allow you to control the source selec-
tion, volume, bass, and treble. Also,
they will pass IR commands back to
the TGR-401, as they have an internal
IR receiver. For custom programming,
please contact your Sun¿ re dealer.
