Connections for remote control ( )

Notes
• Connect the plugs securely.
• Be sure to connect to the connectors using the cable.
• For proper operation the audio connection cables must be
connected. This applies to both remote and standard operation.
• If a component has two terminals, you can use either one to
connect to the HT-R8230. The other one can be used to daisy
chain with another component.
• With Onkyo DVD players, you can enter the manufacturer code
so that you can operate the DVD player directly with the remote
controller without connecting the terminals (see page 33).
• Do not connect the AV Receiver’s connector to any
component other than an Onkyo product. It may cause
malfunction.
• Certain component models may not be able to control the
HT-R8230.

The terminal on the HT-R8230 is for connecting other Onkyo
components equipped with the same terminal. When a
component is -connected, you can point the remote controller
supplied with the HT-R8230 at the sensor on the HT-R8230 and
operate that component without having to switch remote
controllers. In addition, by connecting components to the
terminal, you can also perform the system operation given below.
To connect components using the terminal, simply connect a
cable from this terminal to the terminal of the other
component. An cable comes with every cassette tape deck, CD
player, and DVD player that has an terminal.
DO NOT connect the
power cord at this
time.

Power on/ready function

When the HT-R8230 is in the standby state, if an -connected
component is turned on, then the HT-R8230 also turns on and the
input source selected at the HT-R8230 automatically switches to
that component.
If the power cord for an -connected component is connected to
the AC OUTLET on the HT-R8230, or if the HT-R8230 is turned
on, this function will not work.

Direct change function

When the play button is pressed at an -connected component,
the input source selected at the HT-R8230 automatically changes to
that component.

Power off function

When the HT-R8230 is placed in the standby state, all -
connected components are also automatically put in the standby
state.
