Connecting an Onkyo MD recorder to the CD receiver with an

 

cable allows you to control the MD recorder with

 

 

the CD receiver’s remote controller. In addition, when playback is started on the MD recorder, the CD receiver will

 

automatically select it as the input source.

 

 

 

 

 

 

To use

 

, you must connect the Onkyo MD recorder to the CD receiver with an

 

cable and an analog audio cable

 

 

 

(RCA). In addition, the Input Display for the MD/TAPE jacks must be set to “MD” (see page 29).

Some

 

 

-capable components have two

 

jacks. They’re both the same, so you can use either one. The extra jack

 

 

 

is for connecting additional

 

 

-capable components.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note:

The MD/TAPE jacks can alternatively be used to connect a VCR or DAT recorder, in which case the Input Display on the CD receiver would need to be set to “VCR” or “DAT” respectively (see page 29).
