Miscellaneous Connections

Connections for remote control ()

The terminal on the DTR-8.3 is for connecting other Integra/

Onkyo components equipped with the same terminal. When a

component is connected to the terminal, it can be operated by the remote controller supplied with the DTR-8.3. In addition, when you

connect a component to the terminal, you can also perform the system operations given below.

Power on/ready function

When the DTR-8.3 is in the standby state, if an -connected component is turned on, the DTR-8.3 also turns on and the input source selected at the DTR-8.3 automatically switches to that component.

Be aware that this function will not work if the power cord for the -connected component is connected to the AC OUTLET on the

DTR-8.3, or if the DTR-8.3 has already been turned on.

Direct change function

When the play button is pressed at an -connected component, the input source selected at the DTR-8.3 automatically changes to that component.

Power off function

When the DTR-8.3 is placed in the standby state, all -connected components are also automatically put into the standby state.

Also, if you press the ON button on the DTR-8.3 remote controller

while the DTR-8.3 is turned on, all -connected components (DVD players, CD players, MD recorders, tuners, etc.) are also turned on.

To connect components using the terminal, simply connect a

remote control cable from this terminal to the terminal of the

other component. An remote control cable with a 1/8-inch (3.5-

mm)miniature two-conductor plug comes with every cassette tape deck, compact disc player, MD recorder, and DVD player that has an terminal.

When performing operations with -connected components

using the system, do not use the remote zone (Zone 2).

For remote control operation, the audio connection cables must also be connected.

If a component has two terminals, you can use either one to connect to the DTR-8.3. The other one can be used to daisy chain with another component.

With Integra/Onkyo DVD players, you can enter the pre- program code so that you can operate the DVD player directly

with the remote controller without connecting the terminals (see page 66).

Connecting the power cords from other devices

The DTR-8.3 is equipped with AC mains outlets for connecting the power cords from other devices so that their power is supplied through the DTR-8.3. By doing this, you can leave the connected device turned on and have the STANDBY/ON button on the DTR- 8.3 turn on and off the device together with the DTR-8.3.

The shape, number, and total capacity of the AC outlets may differ depending on the area of purchase.

Caution:

Make sure that the total capacity of the components connected to the DTR-8.3 does not exceed the capacity that is printed on the rear panel (e.g., TOTAL 120W).
