Rear panel facilities

7DIGITAL INPUT (OPTICAL/COAXIAL)

There are 2 digital inputs, one with a coaxial jack and the other with an optical jack. The inputs accept digital audio signals from a compact disc, LD, DVD, or other digital source component.

OPTICAL

Optical fiber cable

COAXIAL Coaxial cable (RCA type)

•When using the optical input jack, remove the protective cap and keep it safely. When the jack is not used, replace the protective cap.

•When using an optical input jack, always use an optical fiber cable.

•When using the digital inputs, make sure to also connect the analog connections whenever possible.

8MULTI CHANNEL INPUT

By connecting a DVD player, MPEG decoder, or other component that has a multi channel port, you can playback the audio with 5.1 channel output. So, be sure to prepare a cable that can properly connect the HT-R490 to the peripheral device.

9z (REMOTE CONTROL)

Connect the Onkyo components that have zconnectors such as a CD player, and cassette tape deck using the z cables provided with them. When these components are interconnected, they can be controlled from the remote controller provided with the HT-R490.

After connecting the z connectors, check the operation of the remote controller buttons for use in controlling other components (refer to page 30).
