Getting Started
RC Antenna Hookups
(STR-DE905G only)
Overview
This section describes how to connect the supplied RC
antenna to the receiver. Since the remote controls the
unit using radio frequency (RF) signals, you must
connect the remote control (RC) antenna to the unit
before you can use the remote commander.
For the specific location of the terminal, see the
illustration below.
Hookups
To maximize RF signal transmission efficiency:
• Position the RC antenna perpendicular to the signal path
of the remote (see below).
• Operate the remote within about 7 m of the RC antenna.
If you have difficulty operating the on-screen display
within this range, reposition the RC antenna for better
reception.
• Keep the RC antenna at least 50 cm away from metallic
objects.
IR Repeater Hookups
Overview
This section describes how to connect the supplied
extra infrared (IR) repeater to the receiver. The repeater
emits infrared signals corresponding to those emitted
by the remote controls supplied with the respective
components. Connected this repeater to obtain
additional coverage if you experience difficulty
controlling a certain component using the receiver’s on
screen display (OSD) control functions, or your
installation prevents the repeater on the front panel
from reaching all of the equipment you need to control.
For the specific location of the terminal, see the
illustration below.
Hookups
Notes
• Use the supplied adhesive tape to secure the IR repeater
so that its front faces the equipment to be controlled.
• If you experience trouble controlling the connected
equipment, the infrared (IR) signals transmitted from the
repeater may not be reaching the infrared receptor on the
respective equipment. In such a case, reposition the IR
repeater closer to that piece of equipment.
