Powering Up the HT-R510

Before connecting the power cord, connect all your speakers and AV components (see page 10 to page 23).

1

Connect the power cord to a suit-

 

 

able wall outlet.

Turning on the HT-R510 may cause a momentary power surge that might inter- fere with other electrical equipment on the same circuit. If this is a problem, plug the HT-R510 into a different branch cir- cuit.

If, for example, you connect your DVD player’s optical dig- ital audio output to the HT-R510’s OPTICAL 1 DIGITAL INPUT, you’ll need to change the DVD input source assign- ment from COAXIAL to OPTICAL 1.

You can change the assignments as follows.

STANDBY/ON

Remote controller

Press the [STANDBY/ON] button.

The HT-R510 comes on, the display lights up, and the STANDBY indicator goes off.

To turn off the HT-R510, press the [STANDBY/ON] button. The HT-R510 will enter Standby mode. To prevent any loud surprises the next time you turn on your HT-R510, always turn down the vol- ume before turning it off.

If you’ve connected a MiniDisc recorder to the TAPE

inputs, you can set the HT-R510 so that “MD” appears on the display instead of “TAPE.” Simply press and hold the [TAPE] button until “MD” appears (about two seconds).

Notes:

•

For AV components that are connected to only analog

 

inputs, choose the “– – – –” setting.

•

If you don’t press the [DIGITAL INPUT] button for three

 

seconds, the previous display reappears.

Important—Assigning Digital Inputs to Input Sources

With this function you can assign AV components (i.e., input sources) with digital audio outputs to the HT-R510’s digital inputs. You only need to change these assignments if your connections don’t match the default assignments listed in the following table.
