Connecting an IR receiver
If you keep your stereo components in a closed cabinet or
shelving unit, you can use an optional IR receiver (such
as a Niles or Xantech unit) to control your system instead
of the remote sensor on the front panel of this receiver.

You may need to specify your IR receiver type in Multi-
Room and IR receiver setup
on page 63.

Connect the IR receiver sensor to the MULTI-ROOM
& SOURCE IR IN jack on the rear of this receiver.
2
Connect the IR IN jack of another component to the
MULTI-ROOM & SOURCE IR OUT jack on the rear of this
receiver to link it to the IR receiver.
Please see the manual supplied with your IR receiver for
the type of cable necessary for the connection.
• If you want to link a Pioneer component to the IR
receiver, see Operating other Pioneer components
with this unit’s sensor
on page 73 to connect to the
CONTROL jacks instead of the IR OUT jack.
Note
1 The volume levels of the main and sub rooms are independent.
2 • You won’t be able to switch the main room off completely unless you’ve switched off the multi-room control first.
