Connecting the AV receiver—Continued

■Using Optical or Coaxial Connections (playback only)

If you connect to a digital audio input, you’ll need to assign it (see page 42).

•Use an optical digital audio cable to connect one of the AV receiver’s OPTICAL DIGITAL IN jacks to the optical output on your recorder, as shown.

OR

•Use a coaxial digital audio cable to connect one of the AV receiver’s COAXIAL DIGITAL IN jacks to the coaxial output on your recorder, as shown.

Note:

Don’t connect the recorder’s digital output to the AV receiver when the recorder’s digital input is connected to one of the AV receiver’s digital outputs. Doing so may create a signal loop and cause a malfunction.

■Digital Recording

If your recorder has a digital input, by connecting it to the AV receiver’s optical DIGITAL OUT jack, you can record digitally. (With the TX-SR702/702E, you can use its coaxial DIGITAL OUT jack.) However, because the AV receiver doesn’t convert analog input signals to dig- ital and vice versa, only input signals connected to a DIGITAL IN jack can be recorded in this way.
