In a Multiroom audio system there is no system wide absolute volume. Receivers must be allowed to have their own volume level to accommodate any differences in Receiver audio hardware, speaker placement and room acoustics. The Sender only transmits its change in volume level (up/down N) to the Receivers and not an absolute volume level.
For example consider two Receivers where one is connected to your desktop speakers in the Library and the other connected to small speakers located on top of your Kitchen cabinets. Volume level 15 might be fine for the desktop speakers but the Kitchen speakers might need to be at level 35 to create an appropriate sound level for that room. When you increase Sender volume by 5 the Library Receiver level becomes 20 and the Kitchen level becomes 40. Thats how the moOde implementation works.
