※Operating Instructions for Host HS-8250
1. Power On State
Connect all the wires correctly and check for no error. Then, connect the power supply. Press
down Power On/Off key to switch on the device. If there is no zone opened, the system will be
under standby state and display the standby interface on the screen (Fig. 1-1). The power indicator
is red. In this case, the timer power output is off. Under standby state, you may press ON/OFF key
or ZONE key to enter the main interface (Fig. 1-2). After a zone is opened, the current state of
switching, audio source and volume in this zone will be immediately displayed. In this case, the
power indicator will be green, while the timer power output will be opened. (Note: If all the zones
are closed, the timer power output will also be closed. If one of the zones is opened, the timer
power output will be automatically opened).
2．Operating Instructions for Manual Control of Zone 2-12
The control of zone 2 ~ 12 includes the selection of audio source, adjustment of volume and tone,
and testing of clock sound for each zone. The operating procedures are as follows:
 Enter Zone Operation Interface Under the main interface, rotate the digital wheel * to
select a zone (Fig. 2-1) and press digital wheel once # to enter the zone operation interface
(Fig. 2-2). Under this interface, you may carry out the above operations to the opened
zones.
 Select Audio Source There are two ways for selecting the audio source:
① From zone operation interface, rotate the digital wheel * to move the cursor to pane behind
the “Program” (Note: The cursor herein refers to the dark grey icon when an option is
selected). Press the digital wheel # once, so that the icon will appear behind the pane.
Rotate the digital wheel * to display the 6 types of audio source in turn. When the desired
audio source is on display, stop rotating the digital wheel and press the digital wheel #
again, so that the selected audio source will be allocated to this zone.
② Select the audio source from remote controller. You may select by directly pressing the
