ZR-6 MULTIZONE SYSTEM DESIGN GUIDE
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
All CAT-5 wiring must be terminated
using the T568A wiring convention.
The following steps are required to
confi gure a ZR-6 for operation:
1. Set tuner presets
2. Confi gure unit through front panel
display
3. Teach IR codes into chassis
4. Create sequences for all Master keys
5. Set source level, turn-on volume
options, bass, treble, variable
loudness, and IR sensor on/off each
zone from keypad
6. Program all remotes (remotes must
be programmed with IR sequences
to control the ZR-6 and the local
TV). The ZR-6 controls the VS-6
automatically. All connections on
the VS-6 must match the source
inputs and zone outputs on the
ZR-6. Example: a DVD connected
to source 3 on the VS-6 would also
connect to source 3 on the ZR-6,
and the zone 4 video output of the
VS-6 must match the zone 4 audio
output of the ZR-6.

CRITICAL KNOWLEDGE
Always specify a secondary remote
control for all audio/video zones.
When installing the Solo-6IR or
Solo-6MD into a "wet" environment, the
unit must have a complete "positive"
seal with the mounting surface. This
is achieved by using silicone caulking
on the gap around the plate and the
®
Decora insert and then installing
the wall plate to complete the seal.
It is recommended that additional
installation time be applied to these
keypad locations.
It may be necessary to disable the
IR sensor if the keypad is exposed to
direct sunlight. When using an external
IR sensor with a Solo-6IR or Solo-6MD
you must use an IR Main System Unit!
This is not necessary when a TS-Pro is
in the zone because it has a rear panel
IR sensor input.
Whenever an iPod is connected to a
ZR-6, the Input 2 RCA jacks become an
iPod cascade output. These are used
to route the iPod audio signal to any
additional Slave chassis.
The ZR-6 can ONLY be used with the
SmartDock2 and ES2. Please check the
