2 Make sure that each Onkyo CD Player, Network Tuner or RI Dock is connected (➔ pages 17 to 19).

3 Make the uconnections (see the illustration).

With u(Remote Interactive), you can use the following special functions:

■Auto Power On

When you start playback on a component connected via uwhile the integrated amplifier is on Standby, the integrated amplifier will automatically turn on and select that component as the input source.

■Direct Change

When playback is started on a component connected via u, the integrated amplifier automatically selects that component as the input source.

■System Off

When you turn off the integrated amplifier, the components turn off automatically.

■Remote Control

You can use the integrated amplifier’s remote controller to control your other u-capable Onkyo Network Tuner or RI Dock, pointing the remote controller at the integrated amplifier’s remote control sensor instead of the component.

Tip

•For details on operating the connected components, see “Controlling Other Onkyo Components” (➔ page 32).

Note

•Use only ucables for uconnections. ucables are supplied with your Onkyo CD Player, Network Tuner or RI Dock.

•If two ujacks are present, you can use either one indifferently as they work the same way.

•Connect only an Onkyo CD Player, Network Tuner or RI Dock to the u jacks. Connecting other manufacturer’s components may cause a malfunction.

•Only Onkyo CD Players (e.g. C-7070), Network Tuners (e.g. T-4070), and RI Docks (e.g. ND-S1000) are supported by the integrated amplifier’s u. With other components such as MD recorders, the u won’t work properly.

•Some components may not support all u functions. Refer to the manuals supplied with your Onkyo CD Players, Network Tuner or RI Docks.

•The CD Players only support the Auto Power On and Direct Change functions.
