Defining Terms
Zone
A Zone is defined as an area of the house that has separate source selection capabilities from all
other areas of the house. Typically, a zone is comprised of a single room, but it is possible for a zone
to spread across multiple rooms (kitchen/dining room, master bedroom/master bath) or for multiple
zones to be contained in one room (game room/bar area or multiple zones in the yard).
Source
A Source is any audio (or audio/video) device that is connected to the SOURCE INPUTS of the
D5RH. Any Source can be heard in any zone in the system.
Local Source
A Local Source is an audio (or audio/video) device that is connected to a D5IP Source Input Wall
Plate. Local Sources are able to be heard only in the zone in which they are installed and may not be
heard in other zones of the system.
