Assigning the audio input

— DIGITAL ASSIGN

You can assign a digital audio input for another input. This function is convenient in the following example.

When you have two DVD players and no digital audio input jack is available for the second DVD player.

Connect the first DVD player to the DVD COAXIAL IN jack on the receiver. You can connect the second DVD player to the TV/SAT OPTICAL IN jack and its analog audio/video output jacks to the VIDEO 2 AUDIO IN and VIDEO IN jacks on the receiver.

Then, assign the DVD COAXIAL’s digital audio input to DVD (DVD–DVD) and the TV/SAT OPTICAL’s digital audio input to VIDEO 2 (TV/SAT–VIDEO 2).

1 Press MAIN MENU repeatedly to select “CUSTOMIZE”.

2 Press or repeatedly to select

“DIGITAL ASSIGN”.

3 Press ENTER.

4 Press or repeatedly to select the digital audio input you want to assign.

5 Turn –/+ to select the input you want to assign the digital audio input jack selected in step 4.

The input you can assign varies for each audio input. For details, see “Selectable audio inputs for each input”.
