Composite Video Monitor Out connector: If your tv or video display does not have an hdmI connector, use a composite video cable (not included) to connect the Avr’s composite video monitor out connector to your tv’s composite video input. NOTE: the hdmI connection to your tv is preferred. If you use the composite video connection to your tv, you will not be able to view the Avr’s on-screen menus.

Composite Video Record Out connector: connect an analog video recorder’s video input connector to the Avr’s composite video rec out connector. you can record any composite video input signal. NOTE: to record the audio and video from the source device, connect the Avr’s Analog record output connectors to the analog video recorder’s audio inputs.

Component Video Input connectors: If any of your video source devices have component video connectors (and do not have hdmI connectors), using the component video connectors will provide superior video performance. you will also need to make an audio connection from the device to the receiver. See connect your Audio and video Source devices, on page 18, for more information.

SIRIUS® Tuner connector: connect a SIrIuSconnectsatellite radio tuner module here. (not included. Available at www.sirius.com.) See connect your Audio and video Source devices, on page 18, for more information.

12V Trigger connector: this connector provides 12v dc whenever the Avr is on. It can be used to turn on and off other devices such as a powered subwoofer.

Zone 2 IR Input connector (AVR 3650/AVR 365 only): connect a remote Ir receiver located in Zone 2 of a multizone system to this jack to control the Avr (and any source devices connected to the remote Ir output connector) from the remote zone.

The Bridge IIIP connector: connect an optional harman kardon the bridge IIIp docking station to this input. Insert the plug until it snaps into place in the connector. IMPORTANT: connect the bridge IIIp only with the Avr’s power turned off.

Radio Antenna connectors: connect the included Am and fm antennas to their respective terminals for radio reception.

Zone 2 Out connectors: connect these jacks to an external amplifier to power the speakers in the remote zone of a multizone system.

Subwoofer connector: connect this jack to a powered subwoofer with a line-level input. See connect your Subwoofer, on page 17, for more information.

Analog Audio Input connectors: use the Avr’s Analog Audio Input connectors for source devices that don’t have hdmI or digital audio connectors. See connect your Audio and video Source devices, on page 18, for more information.

Optical Digital Output connector: connect a digital audio recorder’s optical digital input to the Avr’s optical digital output connector. you can record both coaxial and optical digital audio signals.

Speaker connectors: use two-conductor speaker wire to connect each set of terminals to the correct speaker. See connect your Speakers, on page 17, for more information.

Network connector: use a cat. 5 or cat. 5e cable (not supplied) to connect the Avr’s network connector to your home network to enjoy Internet radio and content from dlnA®-compatible devices that are connected to the network. See connect to your home network, on page 20, for more information.

Main Power switch: this mechanical switch turns the Avr’s power supply on or off. It is usually left on, and it cannot be turned on or off using the remote control.

AC Input connector: After you have made all other connections, plug the supplied Ac power cord into this receptacle and into an unswitched wall outlet.

RS-232 connector: this connector is used to connect to external control hardware. consult a certified professional installer for more information.

IR Remote In/Out connectors (AVR 3650/AVR 365 only): when the Ir sensor on the front panel is blocked (such as when the Avr is installed inside a cabinet), connect an optional Ir receiver to the Ir remote In jack. the Ir remote out jack may be connected to the Ir input of a compatible product to enable remote control through the Avr.

Fan Vents: these vents are used by the Avr’s fan to cool the system. maintain a clearance of at least three inches (75mm) from the nearest surface to avoid overheating the unit. It is normal for the fan to remain off at most normal volume levels. An automatic temperature sensor turns the fan on only when it is needed.
