ABOUT MZC-66 QUICK START GUIDE
MZC-66 QUICK START GUIDE is intended to provide top-level instructions for Installation, Configuration and
Connection of a SpeakerCraft MZC-66 System. MZC-66 Quick Start focuses on a MZC-66 'default' system,
that is, a basic six zone system that includes up to six audio/video sources, that matches the MZC-66 default
project included in the EZ-Tools download. This Quick Start Guide can also be used for getting more sophisti-
cated systems started, but when planning and installing expanded systems with multiple controllers, external
amplifiers, multi-room zones or when changing the layout of the keypad buttons, it is highly recommended
that the MZC-66 Hardware Installation Instructions be used for reference and guidance. Additionally, the
Hardware Installation Instructions provide much greater detail in regard to instructions given here. MZC-66
Hardware Installation Instructions are available as a download from www.speakercraft.com.
Once a MZC system has been installed, though capable of some basic functions out of the box such as
ON/OFF, Source Selection and Volume/Mute, configuration of MZC-66 advanced features requires Speaker-
Craft EZ-Tools Programming Software. EZ-Tools and the EZ-Tools MZC Programming Instructions can be down-
loaded from: www.speakercraft.com.
