By Matthew Sanders

Can a Denon avr-3808ci be used in Zone 2?

Those using Zones 2 and 3 will rejoice to know that the AVR-3808CI has digital to analogue converters to allow all digital audio sources to be sent over the analogue multi-zone outputs. ALL NEW GUI Setup and control interface (front panel setup possible as well)

What is the Zone 2 feature and how to use it?

The zone 2 feature allows this receiver to send a second source signal to a separate audio system in another location. For example, you can watch a DVD in the main zone, while others can listen to a CD in zone 2 at the same time. To use this feature, you need: An additional audio system (for example, an amplifier) to output the sound in zone 2.

How do I Turn on Zone 2 on my TV?

Turn on the amplifier in zone 2. Press the ZONE button to switch the remote to zone 2. Press the button to activate the zone 2 function. TUNER repeatedly to select FM or AM. Adjust the volume on the amplifier in zone 2.

What should power supply be in Zone 2?

I work for an instrument manufacturer, and we’re supplying a non-ATEX approved 4-20mA device with a Zone 2 manufacturers declaration for installation into a Zone 2 area. The declaration states that the power supply should be between 10 and 30Vdc. I have been asked whether the power supply needs to be intrinsically safe or not.

What is the CI stamp on Denon avr-3808ci?

Custom Integration: The AVR-3808CI carries the “CI” stamp, which is Denon’s certification to custom installers that the receiver has advanced connectivity and control features often required for custom home integration and theater applications using premium control systems.

How does a dual zone HVAC system work?

If the thermostat from a particular zone calls for heating or air conditioning, the dampers in that zone will open to allow the air to flow into that area. The dampers in the rest of the home remain closed.

Can a technician install a zoned AC unit?

Although installing zoned AC & furnace units is relatively straightforward, it is certainly something that should be left to a professional. The technician has to mount the units, connect the lines that carry the refrigerant, and make the necessary electrical connections.
