The optical digital audio output is for connecting a digital recorder with an optical digital input, such as a CD recorder.

BCOAXIAL DIGITAL

These coaxial digital audio inputs are for connect- ing components with coaxial digital audio outputs, such as CD players and DVD players.

C REMOTE CONTROL

This (Remote Interactive) jack can be con-

nected to the jack on another -capable Onkyo component, for remote and system control.

To use , you must make an analog audio connec- tion (RCA) between the AV receiver and the other component, even if they are connected digitally.

DHDMI IN 1, 2, and OUT (TX-SR803/803E only)

HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) con- nections carry digital audio and digital video.

The HDMI inputs are for connecting components with HDMI outputs, such as DVD players.

The HDMI output is for connecting a TV or projec- tor with an HDMI input.

ECOMPONENT VIDEO IN 1, 2, and 3

These RCA component video inputs are for con- necting components with component video outputs, such as DVD players.

FCOMPONENT VIDEO OUT

These push terminals are for connecting an AM antenna.

HMONITOR OUT

The S-Video or composite video jack should be connected to a video input on your TV or projector.

IFM ANTENNA

This jack is for connecting an FM antenna.

J12V TRIGGER OUT ZONE 2

This output can be connected to the 12-volt trigger input on a component in Zone 2. When Zone 2 is turned on on the AV receiver, a 12-volt trigger sig- nal is output.

KZONE 2 SPEAKERS

These terminal posts are for connecting speakers in Zone 2.

LIR IN/OUT

A commercially available IR receiver can be con- nected to the IR IN jack, allowing you to control the AV receiver while you’re in Zone 2, or control it when it’s out of sight, for example, installed in a cabinet.

A commercially available IR emitter can be con- nected to the IR OUT jack to pass IR (infrared) remote control signals along to other components (only the TX-SR803/803E has an IR OUT).

MZONE 2 LINE OUT

This analog audio output can be connected to a line input on an amplifier in Zone 2.

This RCA component video output is for connect- ing a TV or projector with a component video input.
