This connector is used for an external controller.

• When using an S-Video cable or a video cable for connection between the AVR-988 and an input device,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

connect to the video connectors.

NOTE

For the audio output, use high quality pin-plug cords so that no induction humming or noise is produced.

For instructions on installing and operating separately sold devices, refer to the respective devices’ operating instructions.

To conduct multi-zone playback, see “Amp Assign / Multi-zone Connections and Operations” (vpage 55 ~ 58).
