Trying to add more then three zones to an XTS1500.
Switch is set to A B C zones
Added a bunch of extra zones with no issue.
Added a side button as "Zone Up"

After using the side button to move up zones above ABC the switch starts to change between Zones DEF instead of ABC. You can cycle back to Zone A but the switch still switches between DEF until you power off and back on.

Has anyone seen this before?
Thanks

Have you tried adding zone down to one of the side buttons?

If you are using the ABC for zones then you should be using the Zone Bank option for the side button vs. the ZoneUp. I have found it is easier for end users to simply just use a ZoneUp on one of the side buttons and use the ABC for something else or nothing at all.

Sounds like your using the above mentioned zone bank option in the buttons settings. With this you can press it and it'll allow you to use the zone selector abc to be def once pressed again it'll go to abc zones. If you leave the selector on say b then press zone bank it you will be in zone e. If you on zone a and press it it'll be in zone d now. You could as mentioned use zone up/zone down on the side buttons. You'd be abc then can also use the side buttons for zoning up or down. I prefer the zone bank button.so I can have 6 zones and only one side button is used with the abc selector being abc/def. Or just have a zone up or the down alone leaving the extra side button. It powers back on to zone a channel 1 because in the cps you can select what zone and channel is default on power up.
