Indexing Preset Stations and Program Sources
You can enter a name of up to 8 characters for preset stations (station index) and program sources. These index names (for example, “VHS”) appear in the receiver's display when a station or program source is selected. This function is useful for distinguishing components of the same kind. It is also handy for identifying components connected to jacks meant for another type of component, for example, a second CD player connected to the MD/TAPE jacks.
Notes
•Not more than one name can be entered for each preset station or program source.
•You cannot index components connected to the 5.1 CH/ DVD jacks.

Recording
This receiver makes it easy to record to and from the components connected to the receiver. You don’t have to connect playback and recording components directly: once you select a program source on the receiver, you can record and edit as you normally would using the controls on each component.
Before you begin, make sure you’ve connected all components properly.
