[. . . ] AVR 460 AVR 360 AUDIO/VIDEO RECEIVERS OWNER'S MANUAL ­ Basic Functions SAFETY INFORMATION Important Safety InStructIonS 1. Install in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. [. . . ] Use Category 5/5e cable, as described in the instructions for your A-BUS components. The A-BUS system carries the audio signal to the remote components, while receiving IR control codes. A hub may distribute audio to many remote rooms. To control source devices exclusively from the remote A-BUS module, connect the AVR's Carrier Remote IR Output to a compatible IR input on the source. This avoids having conflicting control commands sent to a source intended for the A-BUS system. IR commands received from the A-BUS system are also distributed to the AVR's other IR outputs.

Step eIGHt ­ Install a multizone System The AVR 460/AVR 360 offers several methods of distributing audio to other areas in your home, and it also features video distribution. IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTE: Installing a multizone system typically requires running cables inside walls. Always comply with the appropriate safety codes when installing concealed wiring. Failure to do so may present a safety hazard. If you have any doubt about your ability to work with electrical and telecommunications wiring, hire a licensed electrician or custom installer to install the multizone system. When the system is installed using method B or C below, multizone operation takes over the Surround Back/ Zone 2 amplifier channels, limiting the system in the main listening room to 5. 1 channels. Connect IR Control Devices to the Zone 2 IR Input For methods A, B and C, connect an IR control device to the Zone 2 IR Input for remote-room control of the multizone system, source devices and volume in the remote zone. An A-BUS system does not require a separate IR control connection. NOTE: Only analog audio sources are available to the multizone system. For digital sources, make a second, analog audio connection. The Bridge III source is available to the multizone system. Select one or all of these methods for audio distribution: A. Connect an external amplifier to the Zone 2 Audio Outputs (AVR 460 only). It is recommended that you place the amplifier in the same room as the AVR so that a shorter length of interconnect cable is used with a long run of speaker wire to the remote room. A long run of interconnect cable would be subject to signal degradation. Depending on your amplifier, distribute the audio signal to a single pair of speakers, or to several pairs placed in different rooms. The Zone 2 Audio Outputs offer the benefit of 7. 1-channel audio in the main room simultaneously with multizone operation. However, the benefit is achieved with the expense of an additional component, i. e. , the amplifier.
