Connecting the AV Receiver—Continued

Connecting Onkyo Components

Step 1: Make sure that each Onkyo component is connected to the AV receiver with an analog audio cable (connection a in the hookup

examples) (see pages 24 to 35).

Step 2: Make the connection.

Step 3: If you’re using an MD, CDR, or HDD com- ponent, change the input display (see page 47).

With (Remote Interactive), you can use the follow- ing special functions:

Auto Power On/Standby

When you start playback on a component connected

via , if the AV receiver is on Standby, it will automatically turn on and select that component as the input source. Similarly, when the AV receiver is

set to Standby, all components connected via will also go on Standby. This function will not work on components connected to an AC OUTLET on the AV receiver.

Direct Change

When playback is started on a component connected

via , the AV receiver automatically selects that component as the input source. If your DVD player is connected to the AV receiver’s multichannel DVD input, you’ll need to press the [MULTI CH] button to hear all channels (see page 50), as the Direct

Change function only selects the FRONT DVD IN jacks.

Remote Control

You can use the AV receiver’s remote controller to

control your other -capable Onkyo components, pointing the remote controller at the AV receiver’s remote control sensor instead of the component. You must enter the appropriate remote control code first (see page 84).

Notes:

Use only cables for connections. cables are supplied with Onkyo players (DVD, CD, etc.).

Some components have two jacks. You can con- nect either one to the AV receiver. The other jack is for

connecting additional -capable components.

Connect only Onkyo components to jacks. Con- necting other manufacturer’s components may cause a malfunction.

Some components may not support all functions. Refer to the manuals supplied with your other Onkyo components.

Connecting the Power Cord of Another Component

The AV receiver has an AC outlet on its rear panel for connecting the power cord of another AV component. The other component’s power switch can then be left in the ON position so that it turns on or off when the AV receiver is set to On or Standby.

European and some

North American models

Asian models

Caution:

Make sure that the capacity of the component that you connect to the AC OUTLET does not exceed the stated capacity (e.g., 100W).

Notes:

Onkyo components with jacks should be con- nected directly to wall outlets, not the AV receiver’s

AC OUTLET.

The socket type and capacity will depend on the coun- try in which you purchased the AV receiver.
