Using the system off button

This button will turn off the receiver and any component that has programmed into the SYSTEM OFF settings (see above) as well as turn off all PIONEER components regardless of whether they have been programmed into SYSTEM OFF. If you use this feature when a DVD is playing, the player will stop the play mode before switching off.

Setting up the direct function

The direct function is designed in case you have an external video source connected to your TV (a video source that is not going through the VSX-D908S). For this explanation we’ll call this the “external video deck.” You’d like to control external video deck with this unit’s remote control so you’ve assigned it a function button (for example purposes, the VCR 2 button). Yet, if you put the receiver in VCR 2 mode you’ll get no picture on your TV because the external video deck signal is not going through the VSX-D908S. To get around this problem you set the DIRECT FUNCTION for VCR 2 to OFF. Now when you press VCR 2 function button you can control the external video deck with the remote but the receiver does not go into VCR 2 mode.
