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 flat screen TV, and just connect the audio (analog and/or digital) to this receiver.

Using the SR+ mode with a Pioneer flat screen TV

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

•On-screen displays when making receiver settings, such as speaker setup, MCACC setup, and so on.

•On-screen volume display.

•On-screen display of listening mode.

•Automatic video input switching on the flat screen TV.

•Automatic volume muting on the flat screen TV.

See also SR+ Setup for Pioneer flat screen TVs on page 68 for more on setting up the receiver.

Important

•The SR+ features do not work when the iPod USB function is selected.
