OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW
IDENTICAL SOURCE COMPONENTS
The
ZR-8630AV provides individual control of identical source components (i.e., two DSS receivers of the same
brand and model) by routing the individual source component IR commands with which it has been pro-
grammed to specific Flasher Outputs. These programmed IR commands go to the individual Flasher Outputs
based on the source components for which they were programmed. The table below designates where IR com-
mands go when a zone is selected to one of the six source components.

Important Note: Operation of an identical
a zone installed with an IR Sensor (i.e., using the source component's original remote control or a learning
remote control programmed with these IR commands). Identical source components can be operated from a
zone with a Select

(See Programming Overview, page 53, for more information.)
SHARED SOURCE COMPONENTS
Source components (i.e., DVD player, CD changer, DSS receiver) used with a ZR-8630AV, can be "shared"
with multiple ZR-8630AV units and/or a Home Theater system. (Refer to System Configurations 2, 3, 4, and 5
for more details.) The ZR-8630AV provides coordinated control of these "shared" source components from all
zones of all ZR-8630AV units and the Home Theater.
A source component in a ZR-8630AV Audio/Video MultiZone System is considered "shared" when its audio
or video signal connect to more than one ZR-8630AV, or to a ZR-8630AV and a Home Theater system. (Refer
to System Configuration 2 and System Configuration 3 for more details.)

presses a key/button, the programmed ZR-8630AV issues the IR commands required for the shared source com-
ponents (i.e., Power ON/OFF, Play, Stop, and Channel Up). See the Programming Section of this manual for
specific details on programming.

own built-in AM/FM tuners. (See the Programming section of this manual for more details on tuner programming.)
