If you send !00V30+, all zones will have a volume setting of 30 (-20dB). All tone settings 
will be set to flat by sending !00T06+ and !00B06+.  

You can select the same input source for all zones by sending !00I3+. All zones will now 
have source 3 as their input.  

To set the flag, use the A button located in the upper left-hand corner of the RC68 
programmer. To reset the flag, use the B button of the RC68 or type !A. Note that a + is 
not sent with this command. The flag is an indicator of its condition only. It does not 
affect any other functon of the ZPR68-10.  
   

GLOBAL QUERIES  

The DATA query causes the ZPR68-10 to return a string of ASCII characters as outlined 
in the DATA QUERY section. Type Z00 for the data string for all zones. Note that the 
DATA query does not require a ? or an =.  

To query the flag type ?A. A Y will be returned if the flag has been set or an N will be 
returned if it has been reset. Note that an = is not used with this query.  

Global queries, except for data and flag, are not supported.  
   

2 - POWER SHUTDOWN RECOVERY  

All settings are restored upon recovery from an AC Power shutdown. The volume level 
does not reset to a default value, it resets to the level to which is was set before the 
power was shutdown.  

3 - C.O. STATE  

If a zone has been muted and its C.O. is off, a change in volume, bass, treble or balance 
will un-mute the zone and turn the C.O. on.
