ZONE2 Pre-out Connections

If another power amplifier or pre-main (integrated) amplifier is connected, the ZONE2 pre-out (variable or fixed level) connectors can be used to play a different program source in ZONE2 the same time (vpage 67 ~ 69).

When using an S-Video cable or a video cable for connection between the AVR-989 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 65, 66).

Trigger output jack

The power of an external device equipped with a trigger input jack can be turned on and off in association with operations on the AVR-989. For details, see menu “Manual Setup” – “Option Setup” – “Trigger Out” (vpage 34).

Output: DC 12 V 150 mA MAX.

Check the trigger input conditions of the connected device.

RS-232C connector

This connector is used for an external controller.

b If you wish to control the AVR-989 from an external controller using the RS-232C connector, perform the operation below beforehand.

qTurn on the AVR-989’s power.

wTurn off the AVR-989’s power from the external controller.

e Check that the AVR-989 is in the standby mode.

When using in combination with an RF Remote Controller (RC-7000CI, sold separately) or RF Remote Receiver (RC-7001RCI, sold separately) two-way communication with an RF Remote Controller is possible.

The AVR-989’s status information as well as iPod can be browsed watching the RF Remote Controller’s display. For details, refer to the operating instructions of the respective devices.

When used in combination with an RF Remote Controller or RF Remote Receiver, make the settings at menu “Manual Setup” – “Option Setup” – “232C Port” – “2Way Remote” (vpage 34).

On the menu, when setting “Manual Setup”

– “Option Setup” – “232C Port” to “2Way Remote”, you cannot use the RS-232C connector as an external controller (vpage 34).
