Important

•If you connect to a Pioneer plasma display using an SR+ cable, you will need to point the remote control at the plasma display remote sensor to control the receiver. In this case, you won’t be able to control the receiver using the remote control if you switch the plasma display off.

•Before you can use the extra SR+ features, you need to make a few settings in the receiver. See The Input Setup menu on page 60 and SR+ Setup for Pioneer plasma displays on page 61 for detailed instructions.

•Use a 3-ringed miniplug SR+ cable to connect the CONTROL IN jack of this receiver with the CONTROL OUT jack of your plasma display.

This receiver

To make the most of the SR+ features, you should connect your source components (DVD player, etc.) in a slightly different way to that described in this chapter. For each component, connect the video output directly to the plasma display, and just connect the audio (analog and/ or digital) to this receiver.

Using the SR+ mode with a Pioneer plasma display

When connected using an SR+ cable, a number of features become available to make using this receiver with your Pioneer plasma display even easier. These features include:

Connecting a PC for Advanced MCACC output

If you use the Professional Acoustic Calibration EQ (see page 39) to measure the reverb characteristics of your listening room, you can check the results graphically using a computer connected to this receiver. Use a commercially-available RS-232C cable to connect the RS- 232C jack on your computer to the 9-pin RS-232C jack on the back panel of this receiver (the cable must be cross type, female–female).

The software to output the results is available from the support area of the Pioneer website (http:// www.pioneerelectronics.com/pna/ci/codes/

0,,2076_262707270,00.html). Instructions for using the software are also available here. Please contact the Customer Support Division of Pioneer if you have any questions or concerns.
