Using Other Functions

Multi-Room

When used together with an IR receiver (a MULTI-ROOM System remote control sensor), this receiver is capable of outputting two different sources at the same time. One to the (main) VIDEO OUT jack and SPEAKERS terminals and another to the MULTI-ROOM AUDIO and VIDEO OUT jacks.

In addition, connecting the receiver’s CONTROL jacks to PIONEER CD players, cassette decks, or other components with the ë logo, allows you to control those components from the sub room using the remote control supplied with this receiver.

MULTI-ROOM connections

On the VSX-D908S, connect the MR-100 sensor to the MULTI-ROOM & SOURCE REMOTE IN jack, (on the VSX-D908S it’s called simnply MULTI-ROOM REMOTE IN jack), then connect a separate amplifier (and speakers) and TV monitor to the MULTI-ROOM AUDIO and VIDEO OUT jacks. All of this equipment should be placed in your sub-room as shown below.

•When connecting the IR receiver, be sure to connect it to the green MULTI-ROOM & SOURCE REMOTE IN jack, not the black CONTROL IN or OUT jacks.

•It is not possible to input digital signals into the SUB room, you must use analog signals. •You can't use tone controls (etc.) and any surround modes in the SUB room.
