Remote Room Operation 
In this option, the remote room feed is
controlled by the use of an AVI250
compatible remote control. The remote
commands must be transmitted to the
AVI250 via a coaxial link connected to
the 

input on the AVI250’s rear

panel.

Using the remote control in the second
room press the 

button to

turn on the remote room feed. This will
activate the multi room portion of the AVI
250 whether or not it may be on in the
main listening room. 

The initial feed to the remote room will
be the last station selected by the tuner.
Any other AVI250 input source may
subsequently be selected using the source
buttons on the remote control.

The initial volume at the remote room
will be the level established using the
options in 

SET UP MENU 2

.

If IR connections have been made to the
source playback equipment, it is also
possible to control the functions of those
units via the second room remote.
Consult with your dealer or custom
installer for additional information on
this type of installation.

When the remote room is controlling the
AVI250 via the IR link, the 

MULTI

indicator on the AVI250’s front panel will
remain constantly lit.

NOTE: Whenever the AVI250 is in a
multiroom mode, the 

MULTI

indicator

will flash briefly whenever a command is
transmitted by the remote room location
and received by the AVI250.
