5.  Adjust Volume Buttons until the apparent loudness is the same as the 
device in Step 2 (lowest output). 
6.  Select another input that sounds louder. 
7.  Adjust Volume Buttons again until the apparent loudness is the same as 
the device in Step 2 (lowest output). 
8.  Repeat this procedure for each remaining input. 
9.  Verify settings by selecting each input again, making adjustments as 
necessary until all inputs have the same relative audio level. 
10.  When the last input is adjusted, press one more input (the same or any 
other), to save the last setting. 
11.  Press the ADJ-OFF Button (Adjustments Off - 90) to drop out of the Trim 
mode. (Trim mode will automatically drop out if you wait more than 10 
seconds). The Trim settings are now saved for all inputs, for all zones, 
completing this procedure. 
 
Zone Audio Adjustments 
These adjustments allow customized bass, treble, balance and maximum level 
settings to best compliment the acoustics and preferences for each zone. 
1.  Go to the zone to be adjusted. 
2.  Using an RC68X, select desired Input (source). 
3.  Point the RC68X at the IR sensor on the MRC88 Keypad (IR sensor 
enabled) and press the Z-ADJ Button (18). (This activates the Zone 
Adjustments mode). 
NOTE: Z-ADJ mode allows 10 seconds after each button press for the next 
command to be executed. If 10 seconds is exceeded, simply press Z-ADJ 
again. To confirm Z-ADJ mode, press the Mute On Button. If the sound 
mutes, the MRC88 Controller is NOT in the Z-ADJ mode. 
4.  While listening to the program material, set Bass (E0, 88, & A8), Treble (20, 
60, & 08) and Balance (C8, 58, D8) as desired. Repeat this procedure as 
often as necessary to arrive at a pleasing tonal balance for the zone. 
5.  Adjust Volume Buttons (F0 & 98) to set the maximum volume desired for 
the zone. 
6.  Press MAX-V Button (78) to save this maximum volume setting (this will 
become the loudest volume possible in that zone). 
7.  Set the Volume level to the desired Zone On volume setting (i.e. the 
maximum volume setting desired for when a zone is first turned ON – usually 
a low to moderate listening level). 
8.  Press the ON-VOL Button (E1). This will now be the maximum volume to 
which a zone will power on. The zone will turn on to the last volume set, up 
to, but over the Zone On volume setting.
