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.

1Make sure that the plasma display and this receiver are switched on and that they are connected with the SR+ cable.

See Using this receiver with a Pioneer plasma display above for more on this.

2To switch SR+ mode on/off, press RECEIVER, then the SR+ button.

The front panel display shows SR+ ON or OFF.

Note

1• The 3-ringed SR+ cable from Pioneer is commercially available under the part number ADE7095. Contact the Pioneer Cus- tomer Support division for more information on obtaining an SR+ cable (you can also use a commercially available 3-ringed mini phone plug for the connection).

•If you connect to a Pioneer plasma display using an SR+ cable, you will need to point the remote control at the plasma dis- play 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.

2The automatic volume muting feature is enabled separately; see SR+ Setup for Pioneer plasma displays on page 65.
