Using this receiver with a Pioneer plasma display

If you have a Pioneer plasma display (models PRO-1110HD, PRO-910HD, PDP-5040HD, PDP-4340HD), you can use an SR+ cable (see note below) to connect it to this unit and take advantage of various convenient features, such as automatic video input switching of the plasma display when the input is changed.

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

Before you can use the extra SR+ features, you need to make a few settings in the receiver. See SR+ control for Pioneer plasma displays on page 48 for detailed instructions.

•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 to control the receiver using the remote control if you switch the plasma display off.

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.

•The 3-ringed SR+ cable from Pioneer is commercially available under the part number ADE7095. Contact the Pioneer Customer Support division for more infor- mation on obtaining an SR+ cable.
