Applications

This section describes typical applications using the S128P in audio/video/automation installations. These are all
basic in nature and should be used for guideline purposes only. Each application can be augmented as needed for
individual circumstances.

Zone/Sub-Zone Definitions

A zone is defined as an area within a system that has independent source selection ability. A zone may be one
room, or several combined areas. A sub-zone is a part of a zone - it shares source selection - but is not indepen-
dent. Typically, sub-zones use volume controls for volume up/down.
