Getting to Know the DV-SP1000/DV-SP1000E—Continued

KIR IN/OUT (40)

The IR IN socket can be used to connect a commer- cially available IR receiver, which can be used to pickup signals from the remote controller when the DV-SP1000/DV-SP1000E is located in another room, installed in a rack, or is out of range of the remote controller

The IR OUT connector can be used to connect a commercially available IR emitter, which can be used to pass remote controller signals received by the IR IN along to other components.

L REMOTE CONTROL (40)

These (Remote Interactive) sockets can be con-

nected to the sockets on other Onkyo AV com- ponents for interactive control.

To use you must make an analog audio connec- tion between the DV-SP1000/DV-SP1000E and your Onkyo AV receiver, even if they are connected digitally.

MD.MIX AUDIO OUT (30, 31, 38)

R12V TRIGGER IN

This socket can be connected to the 12-volt trigger output on an AV receiver or other component so that the DV-SP1000/DV-SP1000E can be turned on remotely.

SAC INLET (41)

The supplied power cord should be connected here.

These sockets output analog audio and can be con- nected to a stereo analog audio input on a TV, hi-fi amp, or other component. If the source audio is multichannel (Dolby Digital, DTS, DVD-Audio, SACD), they output a 2-channel downmix.

NFRONT, SURR 1, CENTER & SUBWOOFER AUDIO OUT (37)

These sockets output 5.1-channel analog audio and can be connected to a 5.1-channel analog audio input on an AV receiver, surround sound decoder (Dolby Pro Logic), or other component.

OSURR 2 AUDIO OUT (37)

These sockets output the same analog audio as the SURR1 outputs and can be connected to the analog surround back left and right inputs on a 7.1-channel AV receiver or other component. When using these sockets, the SURR MODE switch should be set to 1+2.

PSURR MODE (AUDIO OUT) switch (37)

This switch is used to set the surround output mode of the analog multichannel audio outputs. If you connect the SURR 2 outputs to a 7.1-channel AV receiver or amp, set this switch to 1+2. This reduces the output level by 3 dB. If you’re not using the SURR 2 outputs, set this switch to 1.

QHD VIDEO OUT COMPONENT (31)

These BNC sockets output HD component video and can be connected to the HD component video input on an HDTV or projector.

When a video signal is fed to a VIDEO IN socket (S-Video or composite), and the video input source is set to EXTERNAL, that video signal is upcon- verted to progressive and output here.
